O.K. he spewed a bit. Overall, I stick to supporting the guy. He did his duty. Alot of the guys who fought the Germans said the same thing. I know one that spent the rest of his life as an anti-semite. Saw alot of his friends die to save the Jews in Germany, most of whom did nothing to save themselves. How are these two connected? They are both the result of people going to war with little geopolitical accumen. It does not mean they did not do their duty, only that they were confused about why they did it.
“Saw alot of his friends die to save the Jews in Germany, most of whom did nothing to save themselves.”
I think he might have been a bit confused about our strategic interests and the timeline of events. Hitler declared war on the U.S. The Jews were a minority in Germany and had two options : flee or die. And many were unable to flee in time.
