Military ensigns

This nation's naval ensign is the same as its national flag, so Template:Navy produces the following:

• {{navy|Template:Str right}} → Template:Navy

This template includes an air force ensign flag variant that can be used with Template:Air force:

• {{air force|Template:Str right}} → Template:Air force
• {{flagicon|Template:Str right|air force}} → {{country data Template:Str right|flagicon/core|variant=air force|size=}}

This template includes an army ensign flag variant that can be used with Template:Army:

• {{army|Template:Str right}} → Template:Army
• {{flagicon|Template:Str right|army}} → {{country data Template:Str right|flagicon/core|variant=army|size=}}

Redirect aliases

This template can also be used via an alias name (implemented as a redirect to this template):

Alias name	{{flag|alias}} output	{{flagcountry|alias}} output

US (view)	Template:Country data US	Template:Flagcountry
United States of America (view)	Template:Country data United States of America	Template:Flagcountry
U.S. (view)	Template:Country data U.S.	Template:Flagcountry
