Forest swastika

The forest swastika was a patch of larch trees covering area of pine forest near Zernikow, Uckermark district, Brandenburg, in northeastern Germany, arranged to look like a swastika with their light colors.
==History==
Reports say the larchs have been planted in 1938. It is unclear how the trees came to be planted and arranged in such a fashion. A theory is that a zealous forester convinced local Hitler Youth members to plant the trees in commemoration of Adolf Hitler's birthday.〔Cleaver, Hannah (November 30, 2000). ("Berlin forest swastika to go but its image may remain" ). Daily Telegraph. Retrieved March 9, 2006.〕 One source maintains it was planted by a warden, either out of support for the Nazi regime, or due to an order from state officials.
For a few weeks every year in the autumn and in the spring, the colour of the larch leaves would change, contrasting with the deep green of the pine forest.〔 The short duration of the effect, combined with the fact that the image could only be discerned from the air and the relative scarcity of privately owned airplanes in the area, meant that the swastika went largely unnoticed after the fall of the Nazi Party. During the subsequent Communist period, Soviet authorities reportedly knew of its existence but made no effort to remove it.〔("German forest loses swastika" ) BBC News,December 4, 2000, retrieved March 9, 2006〕 However, in 1992, the reunified German government ordered aerial surveys of all state-owned land. The photographs were examined by forestry students, who immediately noticed the design.
