Hitler wanted a symbol like no other. He wanted something distinct that would stand out when it was carried into battle. ___ The swastika had already been adopted by some extreme German nationalist groups c. 1910 in the belief that it was an "Aryan" symbol.
The swastika (from Sanskrit: svástika) is an equilateral cross with its arms bent at right angles, in either right-facing (卐) form or its mirrored left-facing (卍) form.
Before Hitler, it was used in about 1870 by the Austrian Pan-German followers of Schoenerer, an Austrian anti-Semitic politician.
Its Nazi use was linked to the belief in the Aryan cultural descent of the German people. They considered the early Aryans of India to be the prototypical white invaders and hijacked the sign as a symbol of the Aryan master race.
The Nazi party formally adopted the swastika - what they called the Hakenkreuz, 'the hooked cross' in 1920. This was used on the party's flag, badge, and armband.
In Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler wrote: 'I myself, meanwhile, after innumerable attempts, had laid down a final form; a flag with a red background, a white disk, and a black swastika in the middle. After long trials I also found a definite proportion between the size of the flag and the size of the white disk, as well as the shape and thickness of the swastika.'
To symbolize they were part of the Nazi party, created by Adolf Hitler.
They chose the swastika because Hitler says it looks like a "crooked cross" which it does resemble. The swastika is actually an Indian symbol normally sewn into things over India, but not in realtion to the Nazi Party.

What does the broken cross of Hitler mean?
卐Adolf Hitler's Swastika (Hakenkreuz), when the Nazi Party was created, originally meant to "be a symbol of our own struggle" (Mein Kampf, pg. 495) [In red we see the social idea of the movement, in white, the nationalistic idea, in the swastika, the struggle for victory] It was a symbol of peace and good luck until the early 1940s, when it became twisted into a symbol of hatred. But most cultures still recognize the Swastika as a religious symbol for all that is good. But the swastika dates back to ancient religions (Buddhism, Hinduism...just to name a few) I hope this helps you.
