The 45th Division’s original shoulder patch insignia at the beginning of the war had featured a Native American emblem similar in appearance to the Nazi Swastika. Since it looked too much like the enemy’s insignia, the 45th changed their emblem to the Native American Thunderbird.

Just stop it, please, owner of this bot. You are so hell-bent on showing swastika as a Nazi sign, knowing that other cultures have seen this as a symbol of positivity. If you had an iota of good faith, you wouldn't be doing this nonsense.
