Flag of North Germany (Let's Kill Hitler)

The Flag of the Socialist Republic of Germany, known in German as das Dienstflagge der Sozialistrepublik Deutschland or more colloquially as das Rote Volksflagge is the national flag of North Germany.

Origin
The Flag was first created by the Communist Party when they acquired an unused Nazi German flag after the German Revolution ended. As materials were scarce at the time, and a flag was needed quickly, the Communists cut out the swastika of the flag and cut up the swastika into pieces before reshaping it into a hammer and sickle before sewing the pieces back together. The flag was paraded through the streets of Berlin amid the screams of both Communists and Nazi loyalists. Several Nazis threw fruit at the flag, and some stained it. The newly formed Volkspolizei (Volpo) arrested those who were caught throwing objects and these were executed for defaming the flag several days later.

The Communist Party in 1940 commissioned the mass production of the new German flag, and more professional-looking flags were produced. A new manufactured flag replaced the original flying on the flagpole of the Reichstag building (renamed the Volkstagsgebäude) on July 5th 1940.
