I've read his official biography. Does that count?

People "deserted" the German army in 1945 because Gen. Patton and men like my grandfather were breathing down their throats from the West while the Russians were waiting for them on the East.

People change. That's a better line of reasoning than to deny the past outright. That's dishonest.

If you read around the net, this man was FORCED into the Hitler youth as most were, he deserted it, so he wasn't complicit with Nazis.
