[QUOTE]Originally posted by Darkwing: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Wraith: [qb] It is but only when the Marine SO is a captain. Which is vanishingly rare these days. I imagine it fell out of use in the late 19th century anyway so... And there are many differences between USN and RN (such as how you guys managed to pick up an Army subalterns' rank). :) [/qb][/QUOTE]Yes, that one surprises and confuses most ensigns when I tell them - they surprisingly rarely make the connection to the national flag being referred to as the ensign. So, since none of the customs and traditions books I've seen in the USN mention that courtesy, can you recommend any good RN titles/authors to look up? [/QB][/QUOTE]
