This is the flag of the Mobile Infantry and appears in the first 2 minutes of the film and it is obvious what it stands for.

The eagle looks juvenile, but if you view the movie, you will see that is what it looks like. If you do an INFOSEEK search on "starship troopers" and go to the "Unofficial Starship Troopers Web Site" you will see the Federal Service flag labeled as the Mobile Infantry, but again, seeing the film will correct this error for you.

This is the flag of the Federal Service, since the flag is not identified but appears twice, first at the Federal Service recruiting station and secondly draped over the coffin of "Diz", who, IMHO, shouldn't have been killed off.
