About the flag

The strange thing about this one is that the flag is quartered per saltire (blue and yellow), instead of gyronny. The coat of arms is azure, a two towered castle wall or open sable in front of a sea of three waves vert and two argent, between the towers the arms of the elder son of a portuguese king (?): the national arms marked with a lambel argent.
António Martins, 27 Oct 1998
