NationalSozialistisches Kraftfahrkorps (NSKK) was the paramilitary nazist motor corps. It was created by the merger of Nationalsozialistischen Automobil Korps (NSAK) and the Motor-SA (MSA).

63) Command Flag of the Corps Leader of the National Socialist Motor Corps (Kommandoflagge der NSKK-Korpsführer)

A square white flag with a wide red stripe diagonal lower left to upper right, with a black border. Slightly above the center, the NSKK insignia (a silver party type eagle holding a silver wreath with a black swastika), above a light blue ribbon with the letters "NSKK". Below the insignia, the silver letters "Korpsführer". (I am a bit uncertain as to whether the silver may not be a very pale blue).

Almost all the details of this set of flags are from the 1943 Organisationsbuch der NSDAP, published by the Reichsorganisationsleiter der NSDAP, and "not to be sold in the book trade". I suspect not many copies are around (I picked mine up at the Nazi party headquarters in Munich early in May 1945). Ballantine's Books reprinted the color illustrations in "Nazi Regalia" in 1971 and Imperial Publications reprinted all of the illustrations in black and white in "The NSDAP" in 1990. Also helpful is Brian Davis, Badges of the Third Reich 1933-1945, Blandford Press 1985.
