    While acknowledging that the target had appeared "similar" to the Spanish flag, he insisted that was not what it was supposed to represent.
    Yeah right.

      It's also the flag meaning "1", at least by NATO convention.

      It would be interesting to know if there was a secondary target with the colours reversed, indicating "2".

        Spain disputes this, and in recent months there have been bad-tempered verbal exchanges between the Royal Navy and the Spanish police.

        Why did Monty Pythons "Holy Grail" just pop into my head.

        You know the scene......"English pig dogs" etc, etc.

          ARTHUR: Go and tell your master that we have been charged by God with a sacred quest. If he will give us food and shelter for the night he can join us in our quest for the 2012 UEFA European Football Championship.

          SPANISH GUARD: Well, I'll ask him, but I don't think he'll be very keen. Uh, he's already got one, you see?

          ARTHUR: What?

          GALAHAD: He says they've already got one!

          ARTHUR: Are you sure he's got one?

          SPANISH GUARD: Oh, yes, it's very nice-a. (I told him we already got one.)

          ARTHUR: Well, u-- um, can we come up and have a look?

          SPANISH GUARD: Of course not! You are English types-a!
