To: Dr. Eckleburg; Petronski
his father was a SS officer

That's exactly what Petronski was refuting, and you continue to spread that lie! You also leave out the fact that German youth were required to join the Hitler Youth, and that German young men were drafted. You also leave out the fact that the young Ratzinger deserted.

Ratzinger did not desert for ideological friction between himself and National Socialism. He, and 90% of the German army deserted in the face of certain defeat.

And the point I was making is that I did not bring any mention of Ratzinger onto this thread. Petronski did. He's even admitted to that fact.
