Looks like a nice RD flag! But I think it's a not building flag, that kind of flags was used also by Kriegsmarine, or by burrial of the NSDAP leaders etc

For my own information would the Kriegsmarine stampings be on the flag itself ? I never seen one like this until John showed it to me, now I am learning some thing new.

Thank You
Tony

Hi John, the Reichsdienstflagge was adopted on October 31st 1935. It was used by various Govt organisations and was flown from the buildings of the civil administration, Post Office, Reichbahn, Reichbank, Reichsautobahn, etc. It was also used at sea by Govt owned vessels but not on warships.

Cheers, Ade.
