* In [[Nazi Germany]], also referred to as the [[Third Reich]], the [[SS]] used vexilloids which they marched with in street parades and at the [[Nuremberg rallies]]. These vexilloids were topped with an [[eagle]] and a [[swastika]] and with the name of the particular locale of the SS contingent carrying the vexilloids. Inscribed on them was the slogan ''Deutschland Erwache'', which means ''Germany Awake''.<ref>[http://www.museumofworldwarii.com/TourText/Area02_RiseofNazism.htm Hitler and the Rise of Nazism (Museum of World War II – Navick, Massachusetts, USA):] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100529131521/http://www.museumofworldwarii.com/TourText/Area02_RiseofNazism.htm |date=May 29, 2010 }}</ref><ref>[http://www.museumofworldwarii.com/Images2005/02DeutschlandErwachelge.gif Image of an SS vexilloid:] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101218165741/http://www.museumofworldwarii.com/Images2005/02DeutschlandErwachelge.gif |date=December 18, 2010 }}</ref>
