German Youth Organization Flag / Deutsche Jungvolk Organisationsfahne
I have inherited a 4x4 ft WWII flag from a relative who served in France
and Germany. The flag has German markings - the white SS on black look
except it only has one S. the S is exactly like the traditional SS.

It's a flag of the Deutsches Jungvolk (German Youth). A subdivision
of the Hitler Youth for boys aged 10 to 14.

Similar in design to the Hitler Youth Regimental
Flag, but with a white eagle and white hammer and black swastika on
a black field. Ratio 8:11. In use from 1934.

Variant, template or mistaken?

The same flag as the Organization Flag, but different
ratio (c. 1:1).

Now, more than 5 years later, I'm posting a GIF of this flag. It's a
dark blue flag with a dark blue wimpel, charged with a red S (shaped like
the lightning-S'es of the SS). I took one liberty with it, though: the
photo shows the reverse of the flag, and to make the obverse I, naturally,
mirrored the source. However, mirroring the whole flag would render the
S illegible, so I made the educated guess that the obverse shows a legible
S and excluded it from the mirroring.
