After reading this article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Military_Academy_of_Afghanistan#Military_training I've come to the conclusion that this is the flag of the Artillery School of the National Military Academy of Afghanistan.

In this picture (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afghan_National_Police) the flag in the middle could possibly be that of Helmand Province. However, it could well may be any type of Police Unit (Afghan National Civil Order Police) since the picture shows its Commander in the Helmand Province.
