I remember reading about a similar campground, perhaps the same one that ran into a problem come WW2. They had a Hopi symbol painted on them. Unfortunately the Hopi symbol (for luck I think) bore a close resemblance to a Swastika turned at a 45 degree angle. I'm not sure if they painted over the symbols with different ones during the war or what, but I do remember hearing about how the owner was sick and tired of explaining the difference to almost every yahoo that came along.
