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.

Brian Leigh Davis is one of the world’s leading experts on the insignia and regalia of Nazi Germany. He lives and works in Surrey.

Malcolm McGregor is a well known military artist who specialises in illustrating flags, banners and standards. He has illustrated a wide variety of subjects, including natural and military history.
