Use of the swastika as symbol wasn't that rare before WWII.
You can still find it carved into rock, wood and marble on different old churches all over the world.
Both the Finns and at least one of the small Baltic republics had the swastika on their planes before and during the war.
But the swastikas mentioned was generally not standing on the tip as the nazi symbol did, and they're usually "rotating" in the oposite direction.
