Yep, the Blue Ensign did not come into existance until AFTER WWII. And its never been used by Merchants in a state of war. Its now only flown at the Highest point of the Mast when a Merchant Ship enters a Port. At all other times the Red Duster (Red Ensign) is flown from the rear most Point of a ship (And on a mast, jackstay of some kind).
