Well it now appears it may simply Obama who doesn’t know enough or doesn’t care to be able to relate the story accurately.

CNN story refers to statement from Obama camp that says it was a great-uncle serving in the 89th Infantry Division, liberating one of the sub-camps at Buchenwald. That does seem to be borne out in the division history, IF the Obama campaign is now accurate about the great-uncle and IF said great-uncle was actually there:

Be prepared for the push-back as the Demagogues and the MSM scream “how could you dare to question the heroic tale of a liberator of Buchenwald?”

The real question should be

“HOW COULD OBAMA BE SO CARELESS AND INACCURATE ABOUT EVENTS OF SUCH ENORMOUS MORAL AND HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE?”

He has botched this story in both 2002 and 2008, that we know about. At the very least it is fair to say he knows nothing about the history of the liberation of Europe in 1945.
