bmsm Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 This is a embroidered banner for the South Vietnamese Marines and measures 39 in. x 46 in. It is made out of a dark green heavy satin material with embroidered yellow lettering which roughly translates "Republic of Vietnam Marines" with unit name translating to "Ferocious Tsunami, Master of the Sea". It also has a red cloth fringe and edge ties. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other South Vietnamese flag type item that I have is a Medical Pennant which is made out of a satin like material and is 20.25 in. long and 13 in. wide. I took a picture of both sides as the image is the same when looking at it. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
