THE MORE IMPORTANT CONVENTIONAL FLAG SIGNALS
For communication between the firing line and the reserve or commander in rear. In transmission, their concealment from the enemy's view should be insured. In the absence of signal flags the headdress or other substitute may be used.
(See [par. 96] for the signals.)
