I retired as a Master Chief Signalman after putting in 31 yrs. It is a flagbag. A standard Navy flagbag held 68 flags - 26 alphabet flags, 10 numeral flags, 10 numeral pennants, and 18 special flags & pennants. A flagbag held 2 of each flag or pennant.

Adi-C, I agree. Old buildings such as the ones shown and anything that's abandoned, whether nautical, hospital, recreation, etc. It all fascinates me.

nicce pics, sad if you think of the history of the tugs and men who once were crew on them. some of the comments are silly! they are put here to die not a big tragic accident. they are harming no one by sitting around you clown. maybe if folks didnt mess around on them they would not get hurt! bad parents answer for everything: instead of control the kid just take away everything form others. forced safety huh?
