    SS Flag

    Have a question on these so called SS flags:

    http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...hlight=ss+flag

    Is there an original flag of this type or are all of these just completely bogus.

    Thanks,

    Tony

    Hello Tony:
    Design you are asking about is a SS Command flag, for
    a Central Department head, and/or named SS District.
    Vehicle fender version is cited on p-84 of Walker book
    "FaBotTR" (ISBN 0-85524-152-7) as 40x70cm, and the
    on pole position type is slightly larger.
    Known fakes are
    listed on the WAF as
    Fk14 in pinned "wmtf" t=427262.
