This flag was adopted on 24 June 1937, when the crown was added. The plain blue over red was adopted on 5 October 1921. On 18 September 1982 the crown was modernised a little. Some sources say the proportions are 2:3, some say 3:5.
In an alternate version the crown is turned 90 degrees (anti-clockwise) so it can be hung from a horizontal flag-staff. mark sensen 7-NOV-1995
