Alpha Company 2-508 PIR Guidon Flag – 3' x 5' Outdoor Nylon
This 3' x 5' outdoor guidon flag represents Alpha Company, 2nd Battalion, 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment (2-508 PIR)—a storied unit of the 82nd Airborne Division known for its strength, brotherhood, and combat-tested legacy.
The guidon features a sharp blue field with white crossed rifles and battalion markings (2-508 A), faithfully replicating the unit’s official insignia. Unlike the traditional swallowtail cut of a ceremonial guidon, this version is constructed in a rectangular 3' x 5' format to maximize outdoor display visibility and flyability.
Crafted from durable all-weather nylon and finished with a canvas header and #2 brass grommets, this flag was originally designed as part of a donation to Alpha Company for their Operation Resilience (OpRes) retreat in March 2025—an event organized by The Independence Fund to support combat veterans facing mental health challenges.
Perfect for flying at reunions, memorial sites, or unit installations, this flag honors not only where they served—but who they served with.
