Soooo...the private plane used by Chancellor Angela Merkel has "Luftwaffe" on each side... As kurtyboy said: don't be afraid of symbols; besides, they're part of history and it's not because we remove them that history will change!
...as well as ANYTHING from KotCS
KotCS wasn't that bad, IMO. It just wasn't all that good.
Crystal Skull didn't jive with the Indy franchise clear to its foundation. The driving through-line of 1 2 & 3 was grounded in mysticism and spirituality. CS was a science fiction flick. They tried to drive that whole search for power and then bad guy gets destroyed by that very same power motif through them all but in CS it didn't work because by the time you get to the end the rest of the movie has made you so angry that you're just done with it. CS wasn't just a bad Indy flick, it was bad in general.
Its weird, In the 70's, Nazi memorabilia was available everywhere (here in the UK) and in peoples collections.
Oh and my wife would never allow a Chalice of Kali in our house.
During Nazi rule, the German Imperial Eagle (Reichsadler) was combined with the Nazi swastika and was made Germany's national emblem. This eagle looked to its right shoulder. The Nazi Party used a very similar symbol for itself, called the Parteiadler ("Party's eagle") that looked to its left shoulder.
Seeing as how it was a military operation to recover the Ark - and not specifically a Nazi Party operation - the eagle on the crate is correct.
I did nazi see that coming.I avoid anything with a nazi symbol.
What I'm not clear on is how hard and fast the rules of usage were - as you can see here, the uniform patch has the eagle looking to its left, but the helmet decal has the eagle looking to its right.Wow..I´ve never seen the difference where the eagle looks to.Thanks for the information.
