The flag itself looks good -- hand stitched with reinforced corners on the hoist.
I have never seen a patch sewn on a flag before. Maybe a post-war thing (on a war-time flag)? Is the anchor portion hand stitched as well? I think I can see some stitching on the anchor to the white background.
Anyway, the patch is a mystery to me.

Wish I could help but I have never seen this type of example before. Is there any story behind the flag?

Thank you both Guy and John. Yes, the anchor patch is sewn on and is on both sides of the flag exactly opposite each other. The way it appears to me it doesn’t look like it’s been added post war but original to the flag. The mystery continues. Please review the new pictures that I added.
Thanks again,
Tom
All the items look good. The mystery might not ever be resolved but it is an interesting item. I would be happy to own it.
