Re: SS Standarte 70 Flag
Someone with access to the records of this unit, should they exist (which is a dubious proposition...) could establish this man's identity. However, archival records of Allgemeine SS units in the provinces are more rare than the uniforms themselves. The staff of the 1st Sturmbann of this Standarte was likely a very small entity, especially in the years when this uniform would have been worn.

Re: SS Standarte 70 Flag
First off its not an ss standard its nskk.look at the eagle.

Re: SS Standarte 70 Flag
I think you'll find it's the first pattern eagle used up until the late thirties by the SS on various flags and standards. The NSKK eagle had a scroll above the wings with the initials of that organisation.

Re: SS Standarte 70 Flag
I agree with colleague d'Alquen as to my colleague in Wisconsin's flag being an early SS Faehnchen for this Silesian Standarte. It is a rare and interesting piece. Maybe Bob Coleman or Robert H. could show us some examples that are similar. There are also many photos of Himmler with his own personal flag and this kind of eagle in use.

Re: SS Standarte 70 Flag
i know the sa early on used this eagle and i think Bob showcased one opera house banner with the same type eagle,so i guess since sa and ss were not separate yet in the early thirtities that its plausible this could be ss,my apologies.
