Nazis and Germans aren't the same thing. Not all Nazis were German and not all Germans were Nazis.
I understand where your coming from that the label stuck even though it isnt politically correct. Just because the government was national socialist doesn't mean the military should be labeled as such. Just because the US has a Democrat in office does that mean we should call all our troops Democrats or Dems?

It certainly grabbed my attention, because its disrespectful I think to the German veterans. Most were fighting for their nation, and because they were proud to be German. Others probably fought because they had no choice but to.
