Vehicle ID flag

[BLONDI]

Hi folks,

I would value your opinions on this one. It looks fine to me but I’m a bit concerned that the grommets have been removed to hide details of a fake.
Thanks as always

All the Wehrmacht vehicle recognition flags I have ever seen have been a Swastika not seen a Balkankreuz except on modern fakes.

I ran across additional information on this topic when looking. I cannot verify the info but appears to be well documented.

Not true, I will post mine when I am at home.
I believe there is also plenty of photo evidence available.

I have one hanging in my room (And it's original). The white corner edges I have never seen.

Thanks chaps,
Defo not a fantasy item and as has been said, they are well documented and period photographed . I’ve never seen one with white corners either but there’s one for sale on the e stand of the Wehrmacht awards forum that hasn’t raised any negative comments. I’m just not sure if the one that I have posted is good or not
