Also, still agreeing with the education issue, keep in mind that the SS symbol is very popular with white gangs--and in California, even the Nazi Low Riders, which includes in its ranks Hispanics as well as whites. My point? Lots of ignorant, uneducated people are nevertheless very aware of the SS symbol and, roughly at least, its meaning. I don't buy the explanation, "Oh, we thought it stood for sniper scouts." That's their story and they're sticking with it.
I disagree with McClogan. As bad as education is today, I find it implausible there isn't AT LEAST one person in that unit that knows perfectly well what that flag represents. Check out this website. The flag is on sale along with other Nazi paraphernalia. http://www.totls.com/index.php?option...
