“Who buys such things and brings them to a school????”

No kidding. I attended public school for 12 years. In all that time, I don’t ever recall seeing an actual Nazi flag in school. Anybody?

I had a history teacher that allowed students to display their families' war trophies in the classroom for one day each year. The year I was in that class, I took a couple of things, including a flag that a vet uncle had given me.

At the time, most of the male teachers and administrators in that district had been in the service during either WWII or Korea, and a few of them also contributed. For a small-town midwestern school district, the amount of souvenirs and vet bring-backs was surprising.

We kids also found out that plenty of our classmates' dads were a hell of a lot tougher customers in their younger days than we gave some of them credit for.
