This seems to be a flag of the Myanmar War Veterans Organization.

The flag that was shown in the photograph [previously displayed] is used
more than the red flag with the Tatmadaw emblem. Yet, both flags are
confirmed to be used. For the three stripe/star flag, it is used
heavily at parades and other military
events. It even has a higher status than the Army, Navy and Air Force
(among others), yet is inferior to the mystery flag that we have at
FOTW. The red flag (below), on the other hand, is used mostly by
those who are not in the military and show support for them. The flag
can be seen here.

A flag with a similar design to the Ministry of Defence flag, but omitting the orange design around.

This flag is also used at the Defense Service Academy; the red flag is used along with a blue one and a yellow one. My guess is that they signify the three groups of each class.

a parade with a number of flags in the background including one identified as
the commander in chief.

This flag is also illustrated in Pederson's
book under "Burma" see page 72.
