In the middle of the pennon there is a blue emblem – “le Front de l'Indépendance” (The Independence Front) that displays a depiction of a lion rampant with protracted claws and its tongue stuck out (The Belgium Lion), the main element of the Belgium coat of arms) in a lozenge. On both sides one can spot two golden letters – F and I – the Front’s abbreviation. The “Charleroi” is printed at the bottom of the pennon in golden letters. It has golden webbing on both sides and a webbing with a fringe trim on the bottom. On top there is a rod with a cord to fix the pennon.
