"Was Pastor Niemoller in trouble because he was a Christian or an anti-nazi ?"

Don't know where you are coming from, but these are pretty much the same. You can't live both philosophies at the same time.

How do you explain the fact that the cross was featured in all German Army insignia? I am not talking about swastika.

What about military chaplains of different Christian denominations (including Catholic) in German Wehrmacht?

I think this whole idea of Hitler being anti-Christian is preposterous. The only thing he requested was that there had to be a prayer for him and Germany in all military religious ceremonies.

Side item - Germans had "Gott mit uns" (God with us) on all soldier belt buckles. So much for atheists!
