Interesting nonsense about Japanese pilots supposedly wearing swastikas!
Are you calling Mrs. Roy Shanabarger a liar? She personally saw low-flying Japanese air crew who had loosened the tops of their blue overalls to reveal swastika-decorated brown shirts beneath. If thats not reliable information I dont know what is.
And the Japanese navy needs to hire some don’t ask-don’t tell fashion consultants or something. I mean, a blue solid over a brown print? Come on!
Hey. I told you!
The swastika was a symbol for good luck in the east long before the Nazis used it. It is possible they were wearing them.
American soldiers wore the swastika in WWI.
