No, the British & Americans did not have the same sort of symbolism. The Swastika was (is) the symbol for the German Nazi Party. It was used also by the German military as a national symbol after Adolf Hitler became German military Commander-in Chief. The British & Americans used their flags as the symbols for both the military & civilian activities. British aircraft recognition markings were similar to those used in the first world war. US aircraft recognition markings had various versions that used a white star. US & most allied land vehicles (by the end of the war) were using the white star as a vehicle recognition markings. However, these recognition markings are not equivalent in purpose & uses to the German government's use of the Nazi swastika.
