Very cool! :thumbsup Ya don't see those every day.

I like how the reflection of the light fixture makes it look like a shooting (Red) star. :)

Just found an on-line Mongolian dictionary. It's a cavalry division.

Nice flag! Would be a nice addition to any collection!
There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

The Who, Won't get fooled again

A photo I took in 2000 in the Zhukov Museum, Moscow, of a WWII Mongolian Army Unit Flag.

The red flag has an inscription in Mongolian written in Latin alphabet: Workers of the world unite. The Red Army soldier and a worker are illustrated in the center of the flag. The most amazing part is that the soldier and worker are hand sewn. The flag was in use in 1930s. Source: Mongolian Military Museum.
