Thank you for that better understanding of the German mind.

You are welcome. And when I read your comment, I was reminded of the excerpt from "Band of Brothers" posted by Homer a week or two ago. The GIs from the 101st talked about their impressions of the different peoples of Europe. They came to the conclusion that they liked the Germans the best, because they seemed so much like us. Hard working, thrifty, industrious.... And they gassed millions and stuffed their bodies in ovens.

So much like us...the German mind is the American mind.

That can't happen here.

I think I read that about 1/3 of American soldiers at the time were of German heritage, and that’s not counting the ones who would call themselves “Anglo-Saxon.”
