This is the flag of the Army of the Republic of Korea. It was used in the Army’s early days. The flag contains an image of the army cap badge first issued in April 1946. The badge was worn by troops of the South Korean Defense Guard (established in January 1946) along with Japanese-style uniforms. It is the oldest existing flag of the army.
