Hail Victory, although in the Third Reich is was taken to mean "Hail to Victory" under the assumption that the Thousand Year Reich was, by it's existence, victorious. Now, in it's own context Hail Victory is a good thing, yes. But in the context of Nazi Germany from where it is best known, then no, it is not a good thing. Like many other things it's all relative. Another example would be the swastika. The swastika was primaraly known as a religious symbol dating back thousands of years and as a symbol of fortune and good luck, particulary when used in a personal sense. However the Nazi Party manipulated a Northern European religious sect into supporting the Nazi Party by using the swastika, which to them was a powerful religious symbol, and encouraging the belief that Hitler was a messianic figure It worked so well that the swastika became symbolic for the Nazi Party and never fully recovered it's status, at least in the Western world, as a great religious symbol. So is it bad? Well no, not in and of itself. But in the context of relatively recent history, and in particular as it relates the the history of the Nazis, then the answer would be yes It all depends on how you look at it, and even more, it depends on how much you know about what things really mean. History, can learn a lot from it.

Sieg Heil was a common Nazi chant at mass meetings and means 'Hail to Victory'. If you say it (or anything that could be mistaken for it) in Germany today, you can be put in prison for up to 3 years.

It's actually "Sieg Heil!" and means "Hail Victory!". Was used as a greeting in the Third Reich - probably mainly amongst military personnel.

Glad you asked this question I have been wondering also.
Asked the local chippy man who is a German but he said it didn't mean anything and couldn't be translated into English.

it actually means "ehrenhaft gewonnen", or solid victory, or something along those lines. the proper spelling is sieg heil, with the sieg part originating from the word "siegen", which means to be victorious, or to win (maybe you say conquer?); "gewinnen" is also a word meaning to win, but in a somewhat different connotation.
