What's the deal with the swastika on the grille of the truck? Were there NSDAP members in this truck or something? Seems a little premature for 1920. Photoshop? --Gerolsteiner (talk) 23:14, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

They are not members of the NSDAP, as it had not been founded yet. The Swastikas are on the helmets to express the anti-semitic sentiments of the Kapp-Putsch supporters. They have been on the Helmets and the Foto long before Photoshop was invented. You can find an original of those Brigade Erhardt Helmets in the Tamm Museum in Hamburg. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.198.220.84 (talk) 15:05, 8 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
