      Lots of fakes out there. Do you have some documentation on the piece-- perhaps a period photo of it being displayed or used?

      The unit information is in an odd location.

      Some close up photos of the stitching, letters, grommets, any markings and of the other side would help in evaluating the flag.

      WOW scott! I'm impressed! And I was going to ask if it was stitched or silk-screened?
