OK, lets try this again....

After the defeat of most of the white forces in Ukraine in 1920-1921, the Makhno Army was destroyed by the Red Army. This flag, from 1919-1920, is for the 3rd Rifle Regt of the Makno Army of Ukraine.

The Revolutionary Insurgent Army led by Makhno operated in Ukraine.
Several black flags were used and the this is only one example of this kind of flag. Death to all who prevents receiving of freedom for working people Smert vsim - Death to all khto na pirishkodi - who prevents dobuttya vil`nosti - receiving of freedom trudovomu lyudu - for working people The Ukrainian Air Force in this era often used "skull and bone" markings on their aircraft (I believe it was Yellow skull & crossbones on a White roundel with a Black border). Here is a simple version and a pic of Makhno, Eddie.
