Chris,
Yeah, that is a sensitive subject. I have SO MUCH stuff in my office, people go agag just looking around. Actually, the swastika in this display does not stand out as bright as it does with this Flash Photo. You have to have good light on the aluminum buckle to see it.
I took a grouping of German militaria to school once for display that included some of the items my brother had collected. My Dad brought back a Nazi banner but I don't know if I displayed that or not.
But I do remember in 11th Grade History, we had to prepare a talk on some history subject. I obtained permission from my teacher to give a talk on the Lugar pistol and I took my Father's Lugar as a prop. Really. I did. The Teacher kept it in her possession all day but I took it to and from school---hmm, I guess I drove the car that day.
