Tag found on flag. Looking for meaning.

by imagine777

We found a flag in my father's belongings. We believe it is his brothers who was determined to be KIA in WWII. It had a metal tag and I am wondering if someone could tell me what the tag means. It reads across the top: GB 60 UNKS. X 39781
then the second row : X 39782 X 1029 Third row: NETTUNO 2 of 3
