You don't need to remove swastikas from historical documents.

Hello,

I visited my neighbours house this week. She was out of town, and celebrating Xmas with her family.

After a few minutes inside the house, my father said "Look at this".
[ This is a copy found on the webs. It felt not good taking a picture without permission ]



We found out my neighbour ( who passed away a few years ago) was in the Dutch ressistance during the war. Can you guys tell me who signed the document? Was it Tedder, or Eisenhower?

Besides this, there was another document signed by D. Eisenhower.
I will ask her sometimes if I can take a picture of it.

Greet,

Dave

Wow, cool! Don't think this is signed by Eisenhower, as it says "Deputy Supreme Commander".

Apparently, the StG44 wasn't alone in this development!

Pilots of the Tainan Air Group posing for the Camera in Lae, 1942. Several of these aviators would be among the top Japanese aces, including Saburō Sakai (middle row, second from left), and Hiroyoshi Nishizawa (standing, first on left).
