Baltic Guards Divisions

Two flags of Baltic Guards Divisions: 224th Estonian and the 43rd Latvian. Love the dual languages on the flags!

Red Navy Guards Flags

The flags for Red Navy Guards unit, like this Naval Aviation Regt., were different than the Army/ Air Force/ NKVD design.

Re: Guide to WWII Guards Flags

Hi Jim,

Yes, they were...the vast majority of unit flags were in the Central Red Army (later, the Central Armed Forces) Museum...those at other museums were "on loan" ....

Guards Night Bomber Division

From a friends great collection; 2nd Guards Night Bomber Stalingrad Red Banner Aviation Division. Shot out side, makes the color seem a bit brighter than it is in person. Very nice example of a 1943-1944 Guards unit flag!
