Thank you Peter!
It looks like both are repro. At least the lot was very cheap and I bought it really for the other patches.

This is a JNA Army Infantry Battalion Flag, keep the picture as future reference,
as Valter mentioned, these flags are very, very rare items, that hardly you can find and purchase as the units keep them in their private rooms or they end in Museums.
@Valter
There is no unit name on them
Kind regards
Emanuel
Thank you Emanuel.
If anybody has other pictures of these flags in use please post them.

Nice picture, what's the source?
I don't have any of those flags in a collectuion, and never held one in my hands. I guess they are hard to find, as the post-SFRJ (Serbian) units kept them or gave them to museums etc. However, only the air force lag (bottom left) is of a pasrticular unit (96th air force regiment), the others on the picture are "generic" flags with no specific unit. Probably the unit name was on the other side?
I found the picture on the internet. As far as I know on one side the inscription is in Cyrillic, on the other side the flag has the same inscription, but in Latin. I believe that the unit is inscribed on the streamer that is attached to the flag, but I don't know this for sure.
I could only found two pictures of unit flags in use.
I think some JNA flags should be at the Belgrade Military Museum, but so far no luck in finding a picture, so, if you have some, please post it here.

By the way, Kevin, let's go back to the photo in your post #5. Do you happen to know what award is pictured above this gentleman's Academy badges? I can't quite figure it out.
That's very interesting photo, I didn't noticed the badge until you mentioned it. It's the badge for the Nicolae Filipescu Military High school which was probably the most prestigious inter-war military high school. It's strange that he was wearing the badge with the Royal crown in the early 60's.

The text on the star itself reads "Pentru Emerit"
The text reads Arbitru Emerit. Arbitru means referee.

Algeria has an "Ecole Militaire d'Education Physique et Sportive" but I can't find a picture of their badge. Looks like most of the patches are from Algeria.
Thank you!! :cheers:

Hello, 'boonicootza'
I am sure this one is from algeria. I think it is for the fire birgade.
Hope this helps.
Thank you!
At least I can narrow down the search. Most of them have the same shape so I can assume that are also from Algeria.

You bet, I love Romanian militaria but it's not easy to find.
Indeed it's hard to find. I live in Romania and I have a hard time finding anything.
I have a few visors and some shoulderboards bu no tunics so far.
I will post some of them.
