        IMO a nice colonial service veteran flag pole top.
        Double edge loops indicates the veteran origin -
        any emblem could be ordered placed in the top
        center, this being still the case in flag catalogs.
        The IG era Government Service Eagle was used
        on pre-1918 embassy flags, and later by IG vets.

            Indeed rare as many were deliberately
            destroyed during WW2 for patriotism.

                I agree: An amazing photo! The fourth man from the left is another "Hitler look-alike!"

                  The photo from post 5 is a great photo, but well-known and used in various books since the 1980's! I used parts in a cropped form also (gorget-book). It was also partly included in volme 2 for the series "Headgear of Hitler's Germany", which was published in 1992.
