the U.S. Navy ordered all ships to display the First Navy Jack during the War on Terrorism.

For the official document authorizing this display go here .
It is interesting to note that this Flag is also flown to indicate a court martial is in progress, and as the President's and Secretary of the Navy's personal flag.
