Use of the swastika flag and arm bands on WWII German vehicles is an excellent example, one which I hadn't considered.
I once posted an image of a swastika flag owned by my house mate, the flag was souvenired by his grandfather AFAIK at the liberation of Manthausen-Gosen Concentration camp. Within 24 hours Photobucket had deleted the image even though it was a historical artefact.
The notion of 100% correct restoration is a good basis for the decision. Looks like I use the current flag.

BTW: People complaining about the German "Iron cross" are a little obsessive because that was the symbol of German forces before and after both of the World Wars, The British Army has not had to change it's symbols after numerous less than righteous episodes, and nor should the regular German symbols be removed for actions of the NAZIs with their separate swastika symbol. (Politics and atrocities aside, you have to admit the SS had great looking uniforms!)
