Summary

Description
English: Reconstruction of the "Darnița (Darnytsia) Banner", first flown by ethnic Romanian turncoats from the Austro-Hungarian Army, who formed a Volunteer Corps of the Romanian Army. They were held as POWs in Kiev area, and were progressively moved to the Romanian front in Moldavia. The original banner, designed in early 1917, is kept at Romania's Banat Museum, and is the only one to have survived. It is ostensibly based on the Romanian tricolor, with the words Trăiască România Mare ("Long Live Greater Romania") sewn in golden thread.
