Yesterday I watched a 2-DVD documentary called "Voices of Hitler's Army", where they interviewed German veterans of all branches of military service during WWII. When it came to the section about the Waffen-SS, it was the same old song of "I didn't know about any of those things" and "even my children don't like me, but things were different then." So I guess we should stop saying all these mean things about the poor, misunderstood men of LAH, Das Reich, und Der Totenkopf Division. All these horrible stories we've read were just made up by the Allies, right Sarge? In fairness the the majority of Wehrmacht, Kriegsmarine and Luftwaffe veterans I listened to expressed some sadness and regret for getting caught up in Hitler's lies, and except for the language reminded me of average men of any nation, and I'll leave it at that.
