This is not exactly WWI, but its shortly after it. 1920.
These are pictures from Far-rght anti-republican military coup attempt.
Led by General Walter von Lüttwitz and Wolfgang Kapp. Freikorps militias and parts of the army participated in the coup.

Notice swastikas on their vehicles and helmets. This leads me to question: When and Why have far-right groups in Germany adopted Swastikas?
PS: Frist gun truck in history?
