The white cotton cambric edging surrounding the canton of this flag is 2 5/8" wide. These four strips were apparently added after manufacture since the reverse of the flag has one strip only. On the obverse the unit designation and three battle honors are painted in 2" high black block letters on these strips. The single strip on the top of the canton on the reverse has one battle honor. As manufactured, this flag had no border on the canton. Hope this helps.
