I missed an earlier thread where people inquired about the salute to the flag. I am the person who made the historic discovery that the straight-armed salute of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazis) came from the military salute in the USA, and from the original pledge of allegiance in government schools, and not from ancient Rome.

http://rexcurry.net/michael-medved.htmlThree terms sum up popular myths: "Swastika" and "Nazi" and "Roman Salute." RexCurry.net exposed all three.
The "Roman salute" myth holds that the Nazi salute was from ancient Rome. The myth was refuted by the historic discovery that the salute of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazis) came from a national socialist in the USA who used a straight-arm salute as part of the original pledge of allegiance.
http://rexcurry.net/pledgesalute.htmlThe pledge of allegiance was written by a self-proclaimed National Socialist in the USA in 1892 (Francis Bellamy) who promoted "military socialism" and operated the "Nationalist" magazine and spread the straight-arm salute via kids in schools, three decades before the Nazis adopted similar behavior.
RexCurry.net also exposed the "Nazi" myth, that Nazis hate socialists. The word "Nazi" hides the actual name of the horrid party: the National Socialist German Workers' Party. The practice is so widespread that most people who use the word "Nazi" are ignorant of what the abbreviation abbreviates and why it ties into the pledge of allegiance and to earlier National Socialists in the USA.

http://rexcurry.net/swastikaweb.htmlNazis always referred to themselves as "National Socialists" and never as "Nazis" and they always used the word "hakenkreuz" and not "swastika."
The "Swastika myth" is that the symbol of the Nazis was a swastika, and used as their "good luck" sign, or reversed for "evil." The use of the word "swastika" coincides with "Nazi" to hide the symbol's meaning for the horrid Party: Socialism.
Today, most people would never make the connection between the swastika's "S" shapes and "socialism" because most people do not know that the Nazis were the National Socialist German Workers' Party.
The trio of myths are examples of astounding historical facts that were deliberately shoved down Orwell's "memory hole."
