I like to think that if we had good reason to make war, as we did then, many young and old would volunteer.

That's true, many German soldiers fallen also who weren't evil at all but brave and young as any. Just being pawns in the game. I think they should be remembered as well better sometimes too. And look at their enemy who they fought huh?
Anyway, the old warriors are about to be gone so tribute is in order and I'm happy that at least someone remembers their veterans (unlike our country).In da butt.

Anything I can say'll sound trite, so:"Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "

I don't have much sympathy for the German forces, including many non Germans in their ranks, who died. They made a pact with the Devil in the form of Hitler and got what they deserved in the end.Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer.

Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

take it up to the man. And the Nazi party. There were many young men who were not part (majority) of the evil criminal stuff. We're not talkinga bout the Nazis now.In da butt.

Finns are a special case
I'm talking about non Germans in German uniform, they were in waffen SS formations or "Osttruppen" units, many of which manned the Atlantic wall.Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

The SS was different from the Wehrmacht and you know it.
I guess conscription had nothing to do with the large number of German "volunteers" in the ranks of the WehrmachtWe the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. - Abraham Lincoln
