THE COMMISSION PENNANT The commission pennant has for centuries been the symbol of a man-of war. It is said that when the Dutch Ad- miral Van Tromp defeated an English fleet in 1652, he cruised with a broom at his masthead to signify that he had swept his enemies from the sea. When the positions were reversed in the fol- lowing year, the British admiral hoisted a long streamer from his mast head to represent the lash of a whip in dicating that he had whipped his adver- sary. Thus, the narrow coachwhip pennant has become the distinctive o mark of a ship of war. Today, when the order to commis- sion the ship is given, the commission pennant will be hoisted at the gaff, which is located high on the forward mast. It will fly day and night, and will be hauled down only to display the ' personal flag of another officer of higher rank than the Commanding Officer when embarked in the ship.
