It has been stated many times on FR that Patton used former nazi military officers in the occupation of Germany.

But you know all from 6,000 miles away, nevermind.

Patton never appointed SS men to anything.

How many times have you typed this stinking line today? Do you have it cut so you can simply paste it? Get a life. I have stock in Italian companies...how can I do that from 6,000 miles away < /goofy laugh>

I picture a little girl in the "I know you are but what am I" voice.

Apparently you missed everything else on those posts. It was also said that this was after we bombed german cities, civilians and military into the stone age. Guess you overlooked that point. We did it in Japan too, remember that?

This is not true. Patton left a few of the civil employees in certain key civilian posts such as food distribution and transportation who had been members of the Nazi party. Their was no German military left. They where either dead, in custody, on the run, in prison camps, or disbanded and unarmed. The last fighting done in Berlin was by ten and twelve year Hitler youth boys.

The only armed authority where the U. S. Military and it's Allies and the Russian military in their sector. See "General Patton A Soldiers Life", by Stanley P. Hirshson pg.664-669.
