Here the photograph from the "
Blutfahne" with its
flag-bearer and a close-up from the life-buoy.
I had to scan from the "Military Advisor"-magazine, as I cannot find the original photograph, but the three words are obvious.
With this the "myth" about the abbreviation is nullified!!
The occasion is the concecrating of 342 Bann-flags at the "
Garnisonskirche" at Potsdam, January 24, 1934.
The other photograph is the waiting before the consecration at the ground of the "
Sans Soucci". Amongst
the flags were some from foreign countries, like Hungary, Argentina and Austria (OE 59 - Salzburg).

Photographs come from a private property, a HJ Bann-flag bearer, who attended the occasion. This flag-bearer was
a friend of the bearer of the blood-flag (that's what was told to me). If I find the original photograph I will once more scan the life-buoy!
