Do not remove this tag until the deletion nomination is closed.
Reason for the nomination:
The ADF emblem was adopted in 1968 and the flag itself in 1972 (https://www.flagsaustralia.com.au/17%20Kelly.pdf). This version will likely have been adopted at the same time and hence will still be protected under copyright.
