    As far as I know time moves in just one direction and those dates are after 1918. I’m sorry, I’m not trying to gross you out on purpose. I just don’t understand calling it a Nazi symbol for how it was used after Finnish Air Force adopted it. To me it seems clear that if it was adopted before those things existed/happened then how could they have adopted a Nazi symbol?

      I was refuting your claim that Nazism wasn’t around at the time.

      And what’s your excuse for it’s continued use after 1920, when it publicly became a Nazi symbol?

      Did they just not have paint, and wanted to be polite to the guy who donated 1 plane?

        The time was 1918 and you cited stuff from 1919 and 1922?

        I’d imagine they didn’t want to change their logo because of some German party, at least first.
