Sorry if this has been posted before. NPR has a piece on Nazi summer
camps (mostly sponsored by Fritz Kuhn and the Bund) in the US and they
have this footage which has surfaced from the US national archives.

The flag raising starts around the 14 min mark. The footage is from a
camp in Windham NY (up near the Catskills). Complied from ca. 1937 to
ca. 1940.  Apparently the Madison Square Garden pro-Nazi rally in 1939
had around 20,000 people in attendance.

 I guess it's not part of the Common Core curriculum for history.
