Americans still use the greeting "hello" as they did in the early 1900's, and it is related to the greeting adopted under German National Socialism ("Heil") and thus to "Heil Hitler." http://rexcurry.net/pledgesalute.html
The term "hello" is used for hailing people and is related to the phrase "Hail to the chief" (used for the leader of the USA) and "Hail fellow well met," and to these words: hail, heal, health. It is also related to the term "salud," meaning "health," and thus to the term "salute" and the act of saluting, which included the manner of saying "hello." http://rexcurry.net/words.html
The so-called "swastika" on the flag under German National Socialism represented two "S" letters for "socialism" and is related to "Sieg Heil!" in the sense of the NSGWP's cry of "Hail to the Victory of Socialism!" See the work of the noted symbologist Dr. Rex Curry (author of "Swastika Secrets"). http://rexcurry.net/swastika.html
The stiff-armed salute used for chants to the swastika flag under German National Socialism came from an American national socialist, Francis Bellamy, and his pledge of allegiance to the U.S. flag. The pledge of allegiance was an earlier wordier "Sieg Heil" (Hail to Victory -victory over the southern states) or "Heil Nation" (Hail to the Bellamy’s nationalism, nationalization and military socialism). http://rexcurry.net/pledge1.html
The pledge expressed the totalitarian socialism of his cousin and cohort Edward Bellamy, as detailed in “Looking Backward,” Edward’s book and weltanschauung. The Bellamys wanted to impose "military socialism" because they loved the War of Northern Aggression against southern independence. The pledge memorializes their view, especially the phrase “one nation, indivisible.” "Preservation of the Union" was like “lebensraum” in the Bellamy mind. That is why the Bellamys are known as the first American Nazis. They were domestic Hitlers.
The original pledge used a straight-arm salute beginning in 1892. As the nation's leading authority on the pledge of allegiance, RexCurry.net made the historic discovery that the salute of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazis) originated from the military salute in the USA, and from the original flag pledge (as written by a socialist from Rome, New York, and not from ancient Rome, Italy). http://rexcurry.net/pledgerome.html
Compare the Pledge of Allegiance (1892) to another form of hailing the flag: The U.S. National Anthem (the Star Spangled Banner, (a reference to the flag)). The lyrics state: "Oh say can you see, by the dawn's early light, what so proudly we hailed...(the flag)." "The Star-Spangled Banner" was recognized for official use by the Navy in 1889 and the President in 1916. On March 3, 1931 (after Hitler gained electoral success) the song was made the national anthem by a congressional resolution on March 3, 1931 (46 Stat. 1508, codified at 36 U.S.C. § 301), which was signed by President Herbert Hoover infamous for various socialist programs (e.g. Hoover Dam). The Star Spangled Banner was based on the poem "Defence of Fort McHenry" written in 1814 by Francis Scott Key.
Before 1931, a competitor to the "Star Spangled Banner" was "Hail, Columbia," from President Washington's time and through the 18th and 19th centuries.
In the word "Halloween," hallow comes from Middle English halwen, the descendant of Old English halgian. It derives from the same source as hale as in "hale and hearty" and the greeting, Hail!, which led to the verb, to hail (e.g. hail a cab). Both of those words are related to "heal," the root of "health." As previously indicated, heal is akin to German "heil" meanding "health, salvation," and the salutes, "Heil Hitler!" ("Hail, Hitler") and "Sieg Heil!" ("Hail Victory!"), used by German National Socialists before and during World War II.
In Austria and Germany "Heil" is a very common and normal salute still used in many special greetings, e.g. "Schi Heil" for skiers, "Berg Heil" for mountain climbers, "Weidmanns Heil" for hunters, et cetera. The winter greeting in the Alps is "Ski-heil." In those uses, the word "Heil" is said to mean "health" and "good luck" (and "good luck" is a common "translation" for the swastika symbol and for the word "swastika," although German socialists did not call their symbol a swastika).
