    Need Some Help with SS Recon Pennant

    Hey Guys,

    I picked up this brown SS pennant in a lot of military items I purchased from a friend who buys out estate items. I am 100% certain it is real but need some help determining value and identification. From what I can tell it is an Armored or Motorcycle Recon Pennant for a vehicle.

    Let me know your thoughts.

    Bill

    What on earth leads you to that conclusion?!

    It looks like obvious fake fantasy crap to me!

      Id fly it on my Urban assault vehicle. I agree it doesnt seem original to me, whats the other side look like, and does it have any tags?

        Do you honestly think a recon unit would announce their presence with a pennant ?

        It's just another fake/fantasy p.o.s. in my honest opinion.

            I hope you didn't spend all the $ you got from the ebay GD straps & cufftitle on this POS.

              Sorry Bill, but odds of it being authentic are slim. However, the upside to this is you won't have wasted your money. Regards, Ron.

                  Looks like it would not even be functional with the loops and no means to hold it up or on a pole top?

                    Thanks guys. Hmm - well one out of two isn't bad. It came with the big lot (helmet, bayonets, GB boards, SS board, medals, sword, etc) with the GB boards but from a different seller. As I could not find anything on it, I was wondering myself. It sure had the smell and wear to it. I guess the fakers are getting better and better. Even passed the blacklight.

                    Well I guess I get the keep the SS helmet as a consolation prize and I know it is right.

                    So much for two home runs.

                    Thanks again.

                    Bill

                      Could you please post the helmet to so we could see it? Yes the fakers are getting better and better, but sorry to say this flag is not an example of that.
