Why are there giant swastikas in Roswell, NM?

Think Roswell, New Mexico, and you probably think about UFOs, not giant swastikas. Actually, they are reverse swastikas, and they were used by the pilots at Roswell Army Air Force Base for target practice during WWII. Apparently, there are at least 17 of them spread out all over a wide area of New Mexico. Some people attribute the symbols to aliens, occultists, and even ancient Native Americans, despite the fact that they are well-documented by the air force and the USGS. The Army also utilized targets shaped like circles, triangles, ships, docks, and oil tanks.
Here's a web site with pics of most of the targets, though without accurate locations.
