Purpose of use
  1. This image is a low-resolution image of a military orgnization's flag
  2. This image does not limit the copyright holder's ability to profit from the original source, nor will it dilute the importance or recognition of the flag in connection with its military orgnization
  3. This image enhances the article in which it's displayed, as it provides an immediate relevance to the reader more capably than the textual description alone
  4. Use of the military orgnization's flag visually identifies the university and its products in a manner that mere prose cannot, and meets all criteria in WP:NFCC

Though this image may be subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

  1. It illustrates an educational article about the entity that the flag represents.
  2. The logo is not used in such a way that a reader would be confused into believing that the article is written or authorized by the owner of the flag
Replaceable?

Article

Sri Lanka Sinha Regiment

Purpose of use

The image is used to identify the military unit's infobox, and help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey. The organisation in question is a regiment of the Sri Lanka Army, and is thus an integral part of any article aiming to fully inform a reader.

Replaceable?

Because it is a non-free logo, there is almost certainly no free representation. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
