Did the Alekseev Division receive a Nikoli flag similar to the other Colorful Divisons? |

The Alekseev were reorganised as a brigade in March 1920. They took part in the landing on Genichesk in April, suffered disastrous losses and were disbanded at the end of that month. So they didn't exist when the other divisions were given Nikolai pattern flags. |

So does this mean at some point they would have had some form of simple regimental/battalion flags as described on your site? |

Not sure for the division. We do know for the first regiment. Blue, with a white diamond. A stylised "A" made with swords and a "1" underneath. I'm struggling to find a picture, but Siberia Miniatures sell one. |
