The flag is remarkable, but it has nothing to do with the Czechoslovaks. This is the flag of the 3rd Battalion of the 1st Siberian Assault Brigade. Russian natural. It was part of the corps of General Pepelyaev.

In addition, Czechs should not have shoulder straps, and should have instead of them sleeve insignia.

Banner of the Czechoslovak stormtroopers looks like this:

On the second side was a coat of arms of Czechoslovakia

I know Cuprum , but i have not the skill to make the flag myself (It was present in the Osprey about the Czech Legion)

In France we have an "adage" wich is "Le mieux est l'ennemi du bien" : i prefer a very good flag (and a flag of a shock batallion) than a crap flag  ;)

But thanks Cuprum it's always interesting to have some details from a specialist , and maybe one day i could change the flag , it's a possibility !

If you want, I can draw such a flag for you...  ;)

By the way, I have a flag for the enemy - the flag of the Latvian infantry regiment of the Reds: http://siberia-miniatures.ru/product_info.php?cPath=62_63&products_id=2153

Covering the entire spectrum is difficult and hardly necessary. There are few buyers for miniatures of this period. I usually make flags for the figures of my own production or for my own gaming units - as necessary. If you want to make the flag of the unit you are interested in, contact us.

The flag for the Czechoslovak strike battalion is ready. It remains to print it. I think in a couple of days it will be available in the store.
