Company A flag is larger than Company B flagand its width of line 
is wider than one of Company B flag. Adopted on March 25th 2010.

Well, in the images, the A flag is wider, but the relative width of the 
stripe is the same. Does that mean that in reality the flag is also higher, and 
the stripes in also higher, but is relatively the same size?
Are the other five flags all the same size, with just the Company A flag larger? 
Or are all Intelligence flags larger than Band flags? 
What, by the way, is the reason for the small white rectangles at the bottom of 
the flags?
