Bull ensign (also "boot ensign" or "george ensign"), английский
The senior ensign (q.v.) of a united states navy command (i.e., a ship, squadron, or shore activity). the bull ensign assumes additional responsibilities beyond those of other ensigns, such as teaching less-experienced ensigns about life at sea, planning and coordinating wardroom social activities, making sure that the officers` mess runs smoothly, and serving as an officer for navy-related social organizations. the bull ensign also serves as the focal point for the unit`s expression of spirit and pride.
