I think the name depends on what branch. I do know in the Navy they were called pennants.



Given your penchant for accuracy & detail, I would have no problem with accepting your specifics.

I had been told you were an impressive poster, and you have proven my source right!

Without agreeing with all your views, you certainly are aware of your facts, and present a damn good case for your opinions. I enjoy your contributions to these forums! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Well, that makes perfectly good sense!

As I stated, that would be like the sports pennants, not another name for what we called "Irish pennants" in our day.

I recall them being referred to as "Standards", but my memory is foggy, at best, on that! :oops: :roll:


If memory serves me, and that is sometimes debatable, I believe they were referred to as 'Standards'. But don't quote me on it. :lol:

I have no problem with people agreeing or disagreeing with me, unless when in disagreement they discard my viewpoints with derision with no factual data to back it up or when they just start spewing vulgarities and name-calling for no other reason than they cannot back up their point of view. All I ask is that if I am wrong, prove me wrong, do not tell me I am wrong and not back it up.

I made no admissions, nor do I have the belief, unlike others, that my opinions are end all be all, nor do I have the belief I am right 100% of the time, again, unlike other posters. I try to base my posts on facts as I am aware of them or do research to back them up or refute them.

Many times in the past I have refrained on commenting when my research has definitively shown my beliefs to be incorrect, unlike some posters. Yes, I am an asshole sometimes, and yes, I resort to the occasional taunting, even going so far as to be juvenile. I figure it is acceptable to attack as such if I am attacked as such.

I thank you for your comments and what I have seen of your postings, they are well thought out as well as being well written. Tell your source I appreciate their praise. While sometimes, because of my behavior, I believe I do not deserve any, it is nice to receive some, regardless my feelings.

Absolutely so very true. What's so sad is, ignorant people in this country love supporting this shady behavior of obama.
