Exactly my point. The Germans sowed the seed and they reaped the whirlwind.

Excellent post. My mom was a war baby (1938) in the London area. She has vivid memories of the later part of the war. I read your post with great interest. Thank you for sharing your experience.

This whole documentary (see link below), about a British pilot, was extremely interesting to me, but please see what he says from 37:50 (linked) to 42:40 about what he saw in Germany after the war. He had experience with the Germans before the war, too, and his meeting, when he was young, of a German ace pilot from WWI is why he, in part, became a pilot himself. But it is striking what he says his feelings toward the Germans were after he witnessed what he did at Bergen-Belsen.
