Turkish Reichskriegsflagge

[António Fragoeiro]

Has anyone seen one like this?
Its one sale on weitze.
Its posted in descripition, that was put on a ship, to enter a turkish port as a guest.
Makes me wonder, when the Deutschland came to Lisbon port, i wonder if they had a portuguese flag stamped with Reich marks.
Cheers.
Nuno

The Turks, although neutral, were courted by both Germany and the Allies. They staunchly maintained their neutrality to the end of the war, giving haven to Germans escaping the Russian Juggernaut in Bulgaria and Romania in 1944, and from the Allies in Greece in 1944-45.
Istanbul would have been a safe haven
