Il Gonfalone del Comune - decorato con Medaglia d'oro al Valor
Militare. (City's Flag - decorated with Military Golden Medal) -
according to this website.
Cassino is a commune in Frosinone province, Latium. Anyway: the
gonfalone looks deceptively like a flag .

This coat of arms was created by the sculptor Tamagnini in
1928, inspired by a seal of 1745 actually in the State Archive of
Naples. In this seal, and in another of 1777 the stars had 6
points. Tamagnini designed the 5 points-stars because thought
they seem more modern. The work of this artist was destroyed
during II World War in 1944. The nine stars are an ancient
simolysm which hints to the nine communes of the Circondario of
San Germano (=the estate of Montecassino Abbey). The motto of
this city is “Fidelissima Civitas S.Germany” (=city
faithful to Saint Germanus). Saint Germanus is on of the two
saint protector of this city; other is the most famous Saint
Benedict.
