The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings

The swastikas connected by the handgrenade pin and ring are probably from a Schellenbaum. The "s" hook hanger and the swastikas are pretty much identical to ones that hung on the large "horns" of a Schellenbaum I had.
Here's a site with similar swastikas on the flag itself. http://www.antiquesarmsandarmor.com/...ners&Itemid=93
