German WWII U-Boat U-999 Car Pennant.
It was belonged to the car of captain Oblt. in 1944. The pennant is really nice but all the blue color is gone and the silver insignias are now gray.
Please notice in the 3rd picture we have pulled back the bunting material with my finger to show you the original blue color. The blue color can be seen hiding all along that seam.

WIKIPEDIA: During World War II, U-boat warfare was the major component of the Battle of the Atlantic, which lasted the duration of the war. Germany had the largest submarine fleet of the revived German War Navy (Kriegsmarine) from 1935 into World War II (1939-1945), since the Armistice of November 11th, 1918 scuttled most of the old Imperial German Navy from the First World War and the following Treaty of Versailles of 1919. This limited the surface navy of Germany's new Weimar Republic to only six battleships (of less than 10,000 tons each), six cruisers, and 12 destroyers. British Prime Minister Winston Churchill later wrote "The only thing that really frightened me during the war was the U-boat peril."
