Hello, Lars.
If you mean the red banner you’ve seen over the Reichstag – it’s in a museum and some of such ww2 flags are in museums too.
There were flags of military units (actually, it was seldom that a military unit less than a regiment have had it’s own flag). These flags are in the military units now.
What other flags do you mean?
Now you can find a lot of “made in China” flags in every gift store, but during ww2 the situation in SU was a bit different. Please don’t think that every soviet soldier have had a red banner in his pocket. The flag was the very serious thing and there was no tradition to take it and keep as a souvenir, a flag couldn't be smb's private property. Indeed there were not too many flags, so that’s why it’s almost impossible to find the real soviet ww2 flag now.

Re: Flags of the USSR
Thank you for the info friend As i wrote i wondered why it was so hard to find CCCP WW2 flags. It sound reasonable what you write. On the other hand it's possible to find German, Japan, US flags and so on from this period.
