The pennant of the 16th BCP is decorated with the Croix de Guerre 14-18 (with six palms and a vermeil star) and the Croix de Guerre 39-45 (with one palm). It is also adorned with the Red fourragère. In its folds are inscribed the places of the battles where the Ancients particularly distinguished themselves: Ramscapelle and “Tannay”.The feats of arms of the hunters of the 16 are numerous, as indicated by the red fodder that adorns its pennant. However, the two most striking are undeniably the capture of the village of Ramscapelle in 1914 and the defense of Tannay in 1940, in the days following the Battle of Stonne. The names of these two heroic battles are inscribed in silver letters in the folds of his pennant.
