A blue flag with two white five-pointed stars one above the other at hoist
and a white naval emblem in fly. I say "a naval emblem" since I don't think that
the one there is the naval emblem currently. Possibly the white emblem is
some older one. It consists of concentric white disks with two sea lions and two
anchors.

On www.navy.mil.ph it was reported
recently that there is an entirely different flag for this function: a blue flag
with three white five-pointed flags, one and two in fly and golden circular
emblem in canton. The image there is too small to recognize what the emblem is,
but presumably it is the naval emblem (which is not entirely golden, but
has golden elements). From the same site there are images of the emblem,
the golden sea-lion on a slanted silver anchor within a white ring inscribed
HUKBONG DAGAT PILIPINAS.
