Afternoon all.

Just after some opinions on this flag. I am under the impression that it’s original, but a poster on another group said it looked fake. This opinion rattled me a bit as I thought I was a pretty experienced collector when it came to Japanese army textiles. Your opinions or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

For those interested, the flag looks to be a commemorative piece given to a soldier who was serving with a unit in North China.
北支 = North China
第二守備隊 = 2nd Garrison

The flag also contains a number of slogans form 3 army officers(a Captain and 2 Lieutenants) and 11 names along the bottom separated into two groups, 東守 = East Guard and 南守 = South Guard.

Regards
Matt.

I spotted this U-boat badge at a local military surplus store. The feel of it and the look of it makes me think it could be authentic, but there’s some rather decent damage on the back?? I’d be ever so grateful for any input. I have some authentic German World War II items , but at the beginning of my collecting I was scammed more than once! And that’s always the worst feeling!
