WWII D-Day Invasion Flag - 48 Stars Artifact Display (lot #2)
In the early hours of June 6, 1944, American paratroopers of the 82nd Airborne Division dropped into occupied France as part of the D-Day invasion. To identify themselves amid the chaos, they wore small 48-star American flag patches sewn onto their uniforms. These flags symbolized unity and helped prevent friendly fire during nighttime operations. The flag on display is an original WWII shoulder flag, made from lightweight cotton or oilcloth and issued to airborne and glider troops. Preserved in pristine condition, it honors the courage of those who fought behind enemy lines on D-Day.
Please note:
This flag has sustained significant wear over time and appears quite dark under normal lighting conditions. To fully appreciate its details and character, we recommend displaying it in a lightbox or other illuminated display, similar to the photos shown. We would be happy to provide additional images of this specific flag upon request.
All invasion flags offered are authentic WWII-era pieces; however, they vary in style, condition, material, and construction due to differences in wartime production and age. Pricing reflects these variations accordingly.
