WIKI : Finnish Air Force flight mark (1918–1945)...The tursaansydän, an elaboration on the swastika, is used by scouts in some instances and by a student organization. The Finnish village of Tursa uses the tursaansydän as a kind of a certificate of authenticity on products made there, and is the origin of this name of the symbol (meaning 'heart of Tursa'), which is also known as the mursunsydän ('walrus-heart'). Traditional textiles are still made in Finland (Belarus , Baltics, Poland, etc.) with swastikas as parts of traditional ornaments.During the Winter Olympic from Nagano Japan, a building across the street from where, I believe it was NBC broadcasting, could be seen a Japanese swastika. I think they explained it to the audience and left it at that.
