What are flags used for?
Originally, flags were mainly used in warfare. They were, and still are to some extent, the insignia
of leadership. They help in the identification of friend and foe, and as rallying points.
These days, the armed forces carry flags for parades and ceremonies. Large units like
regiments have special colours which often bear the names of battles or campaigns where the unit has served with distinction.
These colours are used to add dignity to inspections, guards of honour and reviews.
Oriflamme
This was the sacred
banner of St. Denis. This was handed to the early kings of France as they went to war by the Abbot of St Denis.
It was the great and holy war standard of France. It was made of red or orange red silk, had 2 or 3 points and was attached
to a lance. These days the word is more often heard used in relation to something that looks like the flag known as
an oriflamme. De Vexillus (all about flags) Susan Parnaby /uk

EARLY FLAGS WERE ALMOST PURELY OF A RELIGIOUS CHARACTER ROMAN MISSIONARY AGUSTINE SAID TO HAVE
BORNE A BANNER WHICH SILVER CROSSES WERE DISPLAYED. THE NATIONAL BANNER OF ENGLAND FOR CENTURIES, THE RED CROSS
OF ST. GEORGE WAS A RELIGIOUS ONE, IN FACT THE AID OF RELIGION SEEMS EVER TO HAVE BEEN SOUGHT TO GIVE SANCTITY TO NATIONAL
FLAGS AND THE ORIGIN OF MANY CAN BE TRACED TO A SACRED BANNER AND IN NOTABLY THE CASE WITH THE ORIFLAMME OF FRANCE AND THE
DANNYBROOK OF DENMARK. KING ALDERMAN OF DENMARK, LEADING; HIS TROOPS TO BATTLE AGAINST THE ENEMY IN 1219, SAW AT A CRITICAL
MOMENT A CROSS IN THE SKY. THIS WAS ONCE TAKEN AS AN ANSWER TO HIS PRAYER, AND AN ASSURANCE OF CELESTIAL AID. IT
WAS ADOPTED AS THE DANISH FLAG AND CALLED THE DANNEBROG
