Leslie Allan "Peter" Chitty BEM was an Australian rules footballer who played for St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL). He was a prisoner of war held at Changi prison during the Second World War. Chitty won the only "Changi Brownlow" medal to be awarded as part of the Changi Australian rules football competition. In 2024, it was reported in the Corryong Courier that an Australian red ensign bearing the words "Changi '41 '42" and "Chitty flag" had been discovered, which may have flown over the game for which Chitty was awarded the Changi Brownlow.

The Australian red ensign is the civil ensign of Australia, the flag of nationality flown by Australian registered ships. It is a red version of the national flag, which is mainly blue. Both flags resulted from the Commonwealth Government's 1901 Federal Flag Design Competition which required two entries: an ensign for Commonwealth Government use and another for the merchant navy. The winning design for the merchant ensign was based on the traditional British red ensign and featured the Southern Cross and Commonwealth Star.
