Noored Kotkad

by Santiago Tazon, 7 October 2001

I saw this flag in a photo of a special report about Estonian Armed Forces at "Defensa" (Defence Magazine). The Noored Kotkad is the young wing of the National Guard of Estonia.There ia a B/W photo of the President of Estonia leaning in front of the Noored Kotkad flag to show respect.
