There are many different symbols in Buddhism, but there isn't one in particular that signifies all Buddhism, like the cross is a symbol of Christianity.
The lotus flower, the wheel of Dharma, the dorje (lighting bolt) and the mandala are a few symbols used in Buddhism to help people remember the underlying principles.
The swastika is a symbol used in Buddhism, Hinduism and Bon, the animistic belief system that predated Buddhism in Tibet. "Swastik" in Sanskrit means "health", and the swastika - either right-turning or left-turning - is often used as a symbol of luck, merit or good health.
THE EIGHT-SPOKED WHEEL OF THE DHARMA IS THE OFFICIAL SYMBOL IN USE BY THE U.S. MILITARY.

Do Buddhists have militarys?
Buddhists are not a country or a nation. As a consequence they have no more military organization than the Southern Baptist Church or the Wiccans. As to whether Buddhists serve in the military, this is an individual choice in countries which do not have compulsory service (draft). The American military has a gravestone marker symbol for Buddhists so it must anticipate that some are serving in its military.
