Gents,

While not Guards, a great image nonetheless - Sevastopol Anti-Aircraft Artillery Military School. Photo dates to August 1948.

That "star within a star" motif is common on unit flags that I've seen on 1940-late 50s flags. It looks very good in color.:thumbsup

Great image of Maj Gen Stapurskiy, member of the front's military council, awarding the Guards Banner to the 56th Guards Fighter Aviation Regiment.
