I guess all I am trying to say is, that it doesn't bother me any more than any other flag in a game.
By the way, considering the swastika (crux gammata - if I recall correctly) is one of many variations of the "Christian" symbol (cross), anybody done any research into it's "heritage". I vaguely remember seeing it in ancient chinese artifacts, so perhaps it's history goes way back?

Hi and welcome aboard
Yes you are correct the swastica in different forms is an ancient symbol
Its the nazi version people object to
Its history and you cant rewrite it
Used in its correct enviroment - such as the flag and medals - is no problem in my eyes whatsoever
After all this is a ww2 subsim we are playing - as submariners as part of the nazi run armed forces
