Comment:	In the CHAMELEON story, the German spy headquarters has a regular cross for a symbol, and Der Fuerher is depicted in a portrait without a moustache. Strange!

Comment:	Not strange at all. America was still technically neutral at the time, and most comic book publishers still tried to avoid calling Hitler or Nazis in general by name.
