• The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary Ensign is blue with a wide white angled stripe running though the center; the Auxiliary's emblem is centered on this stripe. The "blue ensign" is flown, day and night, on a vessel that has been approved as a "Facility." On a Boat without a mast, the Auxiliary ensign is flown at the bow. If there is a mast, it is flown at the masthead; if there is more than one mast, it is flown at the head of the most forward mast. It is never flown at the stern. It is improper to display a cocktail or other novelty flag when the Coast Guard Auxiliary ensign is being flown.
