The decision to reintroduce unit Colours for the armed forces of the new Wehrmacht involved many problems.No unit flags and standards had been produced since before 1914. Paul Casberg, the well-known master painter and illustrator, was commissioned to design the new Army Colours, a commission which, in his own words, he considered to be 'the most beautiful order I have ever received'.Packed with numerous contemporary photographs, and eight full page colour plates by Malcolm McGregor, Brian L. Davis's text examines the flags of the Wehrmacht, in this first of three volumes concerning flags of the Third Reich.

Davis investigates the flags of the Third Reich party and police units.The text is complemented by numerous contemporary photographs, and eight full page colour plates by Malcolm McGregor.

The first detailed, illustrated description in English of wartime life in Germany, and the tentacles of the Nazi state as they affected every man, woman and child.German families suffered the same hardships as British - labour conscription, extra civic duties, severe shortages of food and necessities, disrupted transport, homelessness and evacuation, separation from loved ones and, for many, bereavement.However, there were important differences. The dictator for whom many had voted was leading them to ruin; unequalled death and devastation ensued from Allied air raids; and every aspect of life was caged around with repressive decrees that began to replace the true rule of law well before September 1939.This book outlines and illustrates the living conditions of German civilians in World War II, and the Nazi state's basic structure.
