Default Argh!

I was mostly enjoying History Channel's presentation of a British series on D-Day Mean and Machines, until - did anyone else see this? - they showed the dramatic recreations of the planning room and on the map of Normandy showing the assault beaches, with the national flags, and for Juno beach they had the 1965 Liberal Maple Leaf - WTF? Everything else was nicely enough done on the show, but they sure blew that one. It's not the first time I've seen that sort of vexillological revisionism, either.

I'm thinking of sending a rocket to History Channel - anyone else done that yet?
