Question about Flag Etiquette

#1

Post by Harry87 » 18 May 2014, 11:45

Hello, I am a new member and I am not sure this post is in the correct board, but i will ask anyway.
I am doing some private research on German flag Etiquette, especially military, from the era of WWII. I have researched the web for some time and found nothing.
I am looking specifically about what the german army flag code was on conquered grounds. Did they raise the military flag each sunrise and downhaul it each sunset, or did they leave it up throughout the night? I have heard both of those versions but never found any actual evidence.
I would appreciate it if someone could point me to some related article or book.
Thanks in advance :milwink:
