Patrol Boat Flag

This nice looking Flag is at the moment on offer. The seller discribes it as a Flag from a Patrol Boat.

Eddie.

And here is the markings printed on the edge.

I don´t believe it. There were no navy flags (at least known) with the gerb in them. Even the highest ranks´flags had only the H&S and the red star, but none of them had the gerb.
Hope this is correct,

Esteban

The Flag of Minister of Defence of the USSR is white with the arms of the USSR in the center imposed on two dark blue horizontal stripes.

The Flag of the commander-in-chief of the Navy of the USSR (1953-1992)was the same, but just one dark blue stripe on the bottom edge of the Flag.
In 1950-1953, before abolition of the post, this flag belonged to Minister of
the Navy of the USSR.

I have the first flag, the one attributed to the CIC-Navy. When I bought it, it was supposed to be from a Black Sea fleet naval vessel flag locker, flown only to honor the CIC-Black Sea Fleet during tours and inspections. My source is good, not perfect, but this is fairly consistent with what Taz wrote.

Thanks for the great information. On point, as usual.
