In nautical flags, the numeral pennant number 3, often referred to as "TREE," represents the digit "3" within the International Code of Signals. It's used in combination with other pennants or flags to form multi-digit numbers or specific messages. Additionally, in some contexts, like naval usage, it can signify the absence of the commanding officer when in port. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Numeral Pennant: Each numeral pennant (0-9) represents a single digit in the International Code of Signals. International Code of Signals: This system uses a combination of flags and pennants to communicate messages at sea. Numeral 3: The pennant with the numeral 3 is specifically used to represent the digit "3" in these signals. Navy Usage: In the context of naval signals, if the numeral 3 pennant is used in a specific position (e.g., as the first flag), it can indicate the absence of the commanding officer while the ship is in port. Other Uses: Numeral pennants are also used to form multi-digit numbers and can be combined with other signal flags for more complex messages. Thanks for looking and have a great day!
