Model Forum / General / Models / December 2008Plastic model shows American Swastika that predated German Socialist swastika use.
New discoveries show that American soldiers used the swastika as their symbol early in World War I, and up to 1941, against Germany. The symbol was used by Americans in the French Escadrille Lafayette, by the 45th Infantry Divison, on Boeing P-12 planes. http://rexcurry.net/45th-infantry-division-swastika-sooner-soldiers.html The discoveries are in the growing body of work by the historian Dr. Rex Curry (author of "Swastika Secrets"). He has previously shown how socialists in the USA originated the modern swastika as overlapping "S" letters for "Socialists" joining together in a utopian "Socialist Society." http://rexcurry.net/swastika3swastika.jpg There is also evidence that the U.S. flew Spad XIII Fighter planes that bore swastikas in WWI. see http://rexcurry.net/american-swastika-wwi-spad-xiii-fighter.jpg and http://rexcurry.net/american-swastika-wwi-spad-xiii-fighter.jpg The photos show swastikas that are not in the S-direction, however, it is possible that the actual fighters bore swastikas in the S- direction, or in both directions, or that the modern plastic models (1984 American Plastic Model Co. Ltd, made in Korea) were designed to distance the U.S. military from the use of the classic S-direction swastika that pre-dated used by the National Socialist German Workers Party. There is also evidence that the military still uses swastika symbolism in the Navy's Coronado Seabees Barracks in California (as shown below and/or in this photo). http://rexcurry.net/swastika-building-coronado-seabees4L-shapes1960.jpg During the time when American soldiers adopted the swastika, the symbol was associated in the USA with the growing popularity of "military socialism," a dogma touted by Edward Bellamy, the American author of the international bestseller "Looking Backward," (1887) known as the bible of National Socialism. A postcard from that period and made in the USA bears a swastika and the wording: "Lucky Star - May this emblem protect you well from every bullet, every shell." http://rexcurry.net/45th-infantry-protect-from-bullet-shell.jpg It is interesting to note that the swastika employed by the military in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics also combined the swastika with the star. http://rexcurry.net/ussr-socialist-swastika1919-1920cav-red-army-prikaz.jpg The symbol was also famous in the USA as alphabetical symbolism for socialism in the Theosophical Society (TS), from 1875. http://rexcurry.net/theosophy-madame-blavatsky-theosophical-society.html In 1888, the Theosophical Society teamed up with Bellamy's Nationalist movement for military socialism. The "Bellamy swastika" spread. By 1915, the symbol was also widely popular as an ornamental "Good Luck" symbol, as in a 1915 postcard showing the American flag posed favorably with a swastika. http://rexcurry.net/swastika-flag2.JPG For more information on the swastika as alphabetical symbolism see http://rexcurry.net/swastika-hakenkreuz.html By adopting the symbol, American soldiers influenced the swastika as an alphabetic symbol of socialism around the world, where the symbol had previously been a generic ancient symbol. Graduates/victims of government schools may find it hard to believe: Americans used the straight-arm gesture, wore swastika shoulder patches and flew planes adorned with swastikas in war against Germany, and they did it all decades before the same was done under the National Socialist German Workers' Party. The USA was the origin of that behavior under German National Socialism. See the following pictures: American Swastika on Boeing P-12 circa 1928 to 1941 http://rexcurry.net/american-swastika-WWII-1929to1932-1941Boeing-P-12-F4B.jpg American Swastika Guerre Aerienne Lafayette Escadrille http://rexcurry.net/american-swastika-guerre-aerienne-lafayette-escadrille-c1917.jpg Escadrille Top Ace Raul Lufberry swastika image http://rexcurry.net/american-swastika-escadrille-top-ace-raul-lufberry.jpg Lafayette Escadrille Americaine Swastika picture http://rexcurry.net/american-sioux-swastika-escadrille-la-fayette.jpg Swastika on Avro Anson Airplanes in 1936 http://rexcurry.net/avro-anson-american-swastika-germany-finland1936.JPG On Dec 17, 5:55 pm, News Journalism <news.journal...@gmail.com> wrote some drivel abouyt the use of the swastika The swastika was used by Native Americans centuries before Hitler was a demented gleam in his old man's eye. It was also used by the Hindus and by the Tibetans. Big deal. The swastika used on the WWI aircraft (German as well as American) was a good luck symbol, NOT Hitler's twisted cross. That being explained, go join Dennis in the killfile.... <<PLONK>> > On Dec 17, 5:55 pm, News Journalism <news.journal...@gmail.com> wrote > some drivel abouyt the use of the swastika [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > <<PLONK>> well said sir! What a moron the old school is. He doesn't even understand the topic. And he does not dispute the fact the swastika, although an ancient symbol, was also used as overlapping S-letters for "socialism." Its appearance was also altered. It was not the same symbol used by Native Americans. old school makes the usual naive lumping of the symbol used by native Americans, hindus, Tibetans and everyone. then the old school evades and concedes the point about the symbols modern use as alphabetical symbolism. The old school does not even realize that Americans did not always call it a swastika. The old school is so stupid that he does not know that German socialists did not call it a swastika. old school is probably from government schools. he could not address a topic if he had to. That being explained, the old school needs to go join Dennis in the killfile.... <<PLONK>> >What a moron the old school is.
