A member of the American National Guard, 1939. A member of the 45th Division of the National Guard removes the swastika from his uniform. The division, made up of members of the Federal States of Oklahoma, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona, took over the swastika as a symbol of happiness from the Indians, but now abandoned it because of its use by the National Socialists in Germany.
