I was happily coding away last week, using the official docker images from [https://www.docker.elastic.co/](https://www.docker.elastic.co/)

I was using [docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:6.2.3](http://docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:6.2.3) but when I went back this week, it was gone! Only 6.2.4 existed.

I have two questions related to this:

1. Are you supposed to remove tags? Then how can I get a consistent deployment of elastic search? I do not want to use :latest as that is bad practice. I would have preferred to use 6.2 if such a tag existed, but it doesn't.
2. If I do a 'docker image ls' and look at the TAG column, it shows "none" for my elasticsearch image. Why could this be?
