The swastika is actually an ancient symbol of hinduism and also used by many native american tribes long before Nazi Germany. (In fact, the symbol was adopted due to it's supposed ancient 'Ayran' links) So don't go jumping around getting excited...

Yup. In some asian regions it symbolizes something like infinate-ness or the cyclical nature of things (born - die - dirt, born - die - dirt)

Well I hate to sound disrespectful... but considering the education available to african americans during this time period I have a hard time believing that the knowledge of the ancient roots of the swastika were readily available to this particular soldier.
 
I remember reading in the manual for Legend of Zelda (NES): that symbol backwards is called a manji, and is a Hindu symbol for good luck.
