The flag of Alderney was granted on 20 December 1993. The flag is St George's Cross defaced with Alderney's coat of arms, a lion rampant holding a sprig on a green background with a golden border.
Famous quotes containing the word flag:
“—Here, the flag snaps in the glare and silence
Of the unbroken ice. I stand here,
The dogs bark, my beard is black, and I stare
At the North Pole. . .
And now what? Why, go back.
Turn as I please, my step is to the south.”
—Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)
