The SS man's bequest to Scotland | DW Documentary 

Many crimes was committed- yes. No doubt. By all sides, actually. But the whole German army was not a bunch of criminals. The soldiers execute orders, like any other army in the world do- there is no "moral" in one war.The total casualties of the German army in the WWII was about 3 fold lower than the Red Army's casualties - this means already much. The exemplary bravery of the soldiers like Otto Skorzeny or Leon Degrelle, or Sepp Dietrich is just a soldier's bravery, and he is not a political issue at all.The German soldiers fight for their country, like they understand this, in those troubled years. They do not hide in the Bahamas, like some royals do. Or go to Palestine, Lebanon or Iran to be in safe places, like the most rich Europeans do then. Or close themselves in Switzerland, by the phrase "The boat is full" [ actually, not so "full", if you have enough money in their banks]. The today German polit-correctness and fervent desire not to be connected to the country's past, is just too much false to be taken for true. DW- tomorrow, you will not able to find soldiers to defend your country, if you continue in this style of "generalizations".

take a long, close look at England, France and Holland, and you will have your answer
