Mystery Solved

Remember these flags flying over the harbormaster's house?

   

Way back when, I commented on noticing them and wondering what they were about. You can read the original post here.

I ran into the Harbormaster in French and Brawn the other day. If you remember, I thought the flags were for the letters "O" and "D". They are. "Oscar Delta", to be exact. Turns out that every harbor has a two-letter designation for that harbor, and Camden harbor is 'Oscar Delta'. It's kind of the Camden harbor logo. The harbormaster even has the two flags embroidered on the back of his jacket. So those two flags will ALWAYS fly over the Harbormaster's house, because that is the sign for Camden harbor. 

I'm glad I solved that little question :)
