Army Flags Regulations, 1953-1985

Just happened to find the ROC (Taiwan) Army Flags Regulations on Wikisource, as enacted on April 24, 1953, and abolished on December 17, 1985.
To summarize:
The Army flag was in the proportions of 7:8 [since officially changed to 2:3], red field with a blue rectangle, 1/4 the total area of the flag, bearing a white sun, at the centre;
The Army Commander-in-Chief flag had additional yellow border and fringe, topped with a small blue-white-red tricolour bearing a yellow plum blossom (shown in Flags Through the Ages and Across the World [smi75b);
The Army Vice Commander-in-Chief flag had additional yellow fringe (but not border), topped with a small red rectangular flag bearing a yellow plum blossom;
Corps/Division/Brigade Command; Airborne/Armoured Branch; Garrison Command; Corps/Division Military District all had their army flag topped with a small yellow triangular flag (right angled at the lower hoist, as per the pre-1890 Chinese National Flag) bearing one or two ideograms in black as a kind of initials to indicate the level of command;
Army Hospitals and Sanitary Units had their army flag topped with a small white rectangular flag bearing a red cross;
Regiments and lower units had their army flag topped with red tassels, and with unit name in black on a white stripe near the hoist;
Army schools' flag had the sun inside a circle rather than a rectangle, and with yellow fringes.

Commander-in-Chief, 1953-1958

image by Miles Li, 28 July 2014

In May 6, 1953, a flag similar to the National Revolutionary Army Commander-in-Chief was created in Taiwan for the position of Commander-in-Chief. It was again based on the Army flag, but with a yellow border on all four sides, and was further fringed in yellow. Above it was a small blue-white-red horizontal tricolour with a yellow plum blossom at its centre. Like all other Taiwanese military flags, it was carried on a red pole with white metal spearhead finial and white metal pike base.
Miles Li, 3 April 2004

This flag was instituted according to Army Flags Regulations, 1953-1985. However, it was adopted in 1958 and replaced with Commanding General of the Army.

Dimensions: 130cm x 113.7cm, plus 10cm yellow border, plus 12cm yellow fringe. Above it is a small flag, "one-fourth the dimensions of the flag" (32.5cm x 28.4cm), blue-white-red horizontal tricolor with yellow plum blossom at the centre. The pole is red, 20cm long in total, 12cm circumference, with a white bronze spearhead finial 20cm long and a white bronze pike base 15cm long.

This flag was instituted according to Army Flags Regulations, 1953-1985. However, it was adopted in 1958 and replaced with Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Army's Flag 1958 - 1986.
Akira Oyo, 14 April 2014

The ROC Armed Forces are used to using "Deputy" instead of "Vice" to translate a position only lower than the leader but higher than others. If a new position are setup between the leader and the deputy leader, it will be translated in "Vice", for example, "Vice-Minister of Defence" and "Vice Chief of General Staff of the Armed Forces."

Rank Flag Information

The Taiwanese Army rank flags are green, with the Army emblem above yellow five-pointed stars arranged horizontally: General First Class has four, General Second Class has three, Lieutenant-General has two, Major-General has one. That of colonel has thee plum blossoms in place of stars.
The Army emblem consists of crossed rifle and sword, surrounded by two panicles of rice, each containing seven grains (representing July 7, the beginning of Sino-Japanese War in 1937), the whole under the white sun on blue disc.
