    This is what I think is a Souvenir from the Korean conflict 1951-1952.
    It identifies 57th engineering field squadron and identifies locations.

      Just an opinion, as I’m not sure of Canadian practices regarding regimental flags. I think that if this were a regular regimental flag, it would have the individual battle honors but not the war shown at the bottom, as it would be thought redundant. I think this may have been something less official made for a veteran or for display in the squadron mess/headquarters. I would further guess that there would be some similarities between this and the actual squadron flag, such as the blue stripes on red (orange?) in the background.

      I concur with chris and also would think that it is a souvenir embroidery piece of service in Korea.

      Size may help in making a determination-- what does it measure?

      It is 12"x18"

      Small size is also indicative of a souvenir piece not an actual Rgt flag.
