Zimbabwe Army flag (1980 – Date)
The flag of the Zimbabwe National Army (ZNA) was adopted following independence in April 1980. At that time the ZNA was created following the integration of the Rhodesian Security Forces and the forces of the guerrilla movements which had waged the liberation struggle against the Rhodesian regime. The guerrilla forces of Robert Mugabe’s Zimbabwe African National Liberation Army (ZANLA) had been based in Mozambique Joshua Nkomo’s Zimbabwe People’s Revolutionary Army (ZIPRA) operated mainly from Zambia. The integration exercise was assisted by BMATT (British Monitoring and Training Troops) and was accomplished during 1980 and 1981 in accordance with the Lancaster House Agreement.
The flag of the ZNA is red with a green shield with yellow fimbriation containing a yellow Zimbabwe Bird forming the central charge, under which is a yellow scroll with the words “Zimbabwe National Army” in black.
This evening I have seen a news report about a media conference held by the Zimbabwe Army in support of President Mugabe. Behind the general were two flags, the one on the right (sinister) being the national flag, the one on the left (dexter) is not on FOTW-ws, and I assume this is the army flag. It is red, with a central badge (probably bearing crossed swords, partially surrounded by wreaths, topped by the Zimbabwe Bird without the red star, all in golden yellow).
