What are some symbols that represent Hitler? Like the swastika for example, leader of the nazis. I'm doing homework and need 25 symbols and I already have 12, but I'm having trouble thinking of more symbols that symbolize him. Any ideas from you guys? I'll more than appreciate it.

The Iron Eagle was one....it was a symbol on most buildings and on their uniforms.
His mustache was also a symbol...of sorts. You could draw a circle with his mustache and everyone would know it was Hitler
German Shepard's are another, Hitler owned several and even gave his loyal dog poison right before he shot himself. There are several pictures of Hitler next to his German Shepard's.
Black, Red and White were three colors the Nazi's used and they represented the third Reich...the colors were everywhere, flags, uniforms, building, posters....etc.

Hmm some symbols you could link to Hitler? Here we go:
the SS runes
the swastika
the German eagle (with a swastika in its claws)
the abbreviation NSDAP (Nazi Party)
David Star
Mein Kampf (title of his book)
Albert Speer's bombastic architecture (Olympic stadium, Nuremberg, Luftfahrtministerium etc)
Iron Cross
his moustache
brown (and black) uniforms for SA & SS respectively
Military marches, fanfares, flag-waving, militaristic, Pan-German chauvinism
German steel helmets and Feldgrau
Lots of propaganda and brainwashing
Dictature repression
SS, RSHA and GESTAPO
in later years: this trembling body, shaking right arm, his premature ageing
Nazi battle flag
Kriegsmarine flag
The 'German' Nazi salute (with the outstretched right arm)
Ominous phrases like Nacht Und Nebel, Blitzkrieg, Endlösing, Sippenhaft, Blut Und Boden, Meine Ehre Heiszt Treue, Lebensraum, Undermenschen & Ubermenschen, Heil Hitler, Mein Führer, Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer, Gleichstaltung (lit. "making things equal", in practice abolishment of unions and political parties), Einsatzkommando, the Bohemian Corporal, Gröfaz, Groszdeutschland, Festung Europa, Atlantikwall...
Führerprinzip (there's only one boss)
Concentration and extermination camps
Focus on military prowess
Autobahnen
Bad, rigid military thinking
The Axis pact (with Italy, Japan, Finland, Rumania, etc),...
Bad paintings
A somewhat mysterious death in his bunker in Berlin (or not? :))
Jackboots
Arrogance
Pink triangles
Wagner
Mass-killing of 'undesireables' and of course Jews
Aversion towards Junkers / aristocracy
A great memory for detail
Kitsch
Goosestepping / frogmarching
Pageantry
Hatred of Bolshevists
Black hair lock
swastika armband
And much, much more...

Note that Charlie Chaplin had the moustache before Hitler. Chaplin was extremely popular in his time, beyond what we could imagine. Hitler liked him too and copied the moustache.
Other symbols? Starving people in concentration camps.
