Why is this an affront?
“Why is this an affront?”
It’s really kind of an arcane unknown story. But back in the 1940s the Germans invaded Holland and did a mass murder of lots of normal peaceful Dutch citizens. Then the Germans actually created an SS unit from Dutch traitor collaborators.
So if an elderly Dutchman today heard that a Dutch army unit was being integrated into the German army, some might consider it an “affront”. But i’m not really sure, it was some thing that happened in Europe back then. Guess it was kinda a big deal at the time.
