'Unit' Flag of the FSB.

Now that is pretty darn cool!:bigthumbsup

From what I can make out on the green banner it seems to be for a military counterintelligence group. Also very cool.

They've got every kind of symbol (including depictions of actual badges) used by intelligence/counterintelligence services from Cheka to FSB, but they left out anything directly indicating KGB (with the possible exception of a loosely based star on sword with a wreath in the corners that could represent the orginal shield - 3 of the 4 main elements of the KGB badge, with the 4th being the absent H&S). The blue and green background is a pleasant break from red.

Really impressive - do you know where to find some more?;)

Naturally, all the best items are in museums (which is good thing).:)
