Lets show some flags!

This is I believe a vehicle recognition flag, based on its size. Indirect vet purchase. Colors are very bright! Its probably been in a footlocker for most of its life!

[NickG]

markings

It says in German that its been color proof treated and can be washed safely!
I guess that explains the vibrant colors!
Its marked as follows: "PERSISTOL IMPRAGNIERUNG GUT WASCH BESTANDIG"
This treatment also used for water repellency was standard on Waffen SS smocks using the chemical substance called "Persistol" (commercial name).
