The French Navy kept the original "Navy Blue" colour even after the 1976 change. Personally I think the darker blue looks far better

AFAIK, the only change to the roundels in modern times was the ditching of the yellow border in 1982, so I suppose the colours have stayed the same throughout.

Then again - someone ought to know, rather than me guesstimating..  :rolleyes:

As far as I'm aware, the (lighter) blue roundel colour has remained the same since WW2 - it wasn't changed in the 70s, so presumably won't change now (as the flag used the navy blue colour prior to '76).

What am I going to do with my cans of French blue now???
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I thought that yellow border looked very smart.
