Political correctness seems to have been alive and well in the USA in the 1940s SGT John " Mac " McConnell
The patch of the 45th ID was time honored and the "yellow swastika on a square background of red symbolized the Spanish Heritage of the 4 Southwestern states that made up the membership of the 45th—Oklahoma, New Mexico, Colorado, and Arizona."
Yes, the Nazi's developed a symbol of a black cross of a white background on a sea of red.
However crosses had been used for millennia before the Nazis made their us of it.
It was unfortunate that the 45th Infantry Division was convinced to give up its patch simply because it resembled the Nazi's image. Shame on whoever was behind that decision
This reminds me of attempts to rewrite our own history and strip away sports team names and symbols among other things.

Capt Seid Waddell
I have seen Native American art from the 1800's that contained a backwards swastika. Clearly that predated the Nazis, and was one of their symbols that had been in use for quite some time.
