More ROC Army flags

The following flags were basically the same as those from 1953 to 1962, except that these were in the waffenfarbe of the unit:
Infantry - red
Cavalry - yellow
Artillery - blue, with 2cm white frame around the KMT flag at the centre
Engineers (and Motorized Troops) - white
Signals - light grey
Logistics - black
Military Police - light red (i.e. pink)

Regiment

Dimensions: 80cm x 60cm. The name of the unit is written in black on a white strip, 9cm x 46cm, next to the hoist. Above the flag is a red tassel, 20cm long. The sleeve is yellow, fitted into a red pole, 200cm long in total, 15cm circumference, with a white bronze spearhead finial 17cm long and a white bronze pike base 15cm long.

The official specification stipulated that infantry and cavalry regimental flags should be presented by the Military Commission, whereas that of the other army flags should be procured by the unit chiefs themselves. Somewhat confusingly, the official specification also stated that infantry and cavalry regimental flags "when presented from above" should have 15cm yellow fringe, implying some infantry and cavalry regimental flags did not have fringes.

Specialist troops

Specialist troops, not being branches of their own, did not use flags with a waffenfarbe. Instead they used infantry-type flags (without fringe), each with a small square flag above bearing an insignia of some sort.

Transport and Transportation Troops

Here the official specification is somewhat confusing. As mentioned earlier, the Transport branch (輜重) were to use flags distinguished by black waffenfarbe. However the specification also mentioned the Transportation Troops (運輸部隊) - considered specialist troops rather than a branch - which were to use the same black flag design, but with a small square flag above bearing a letter.
