I really like the "table of contents" on the side, but isn't the flag in front of "Photo Gallery" wrong? The "P" flag is surely a white square on a blue background (the reverse of the "S" flag)- at least that's the one we use as our "P" flag when racing...

If memory serves correctly it is the First Repeater - used when the flag you want to use has already been used. There's only one flag for each letter and numeral in the International Code of Signals so they had to come up with some way to deal with duplicate letters.

except that should be the 3rd repeater

all signals were 5 letters long. 3rd repeater would repeat whatever is in the 3rd position.
