One little thing I'd like to add. I'm not german and have no german relatives or ascendancy. I'm Spanish.

It's just that seen from the "outside", I think is unfair to qualify a collective of soldiers because of the ideology of the leadership of the nation they belonged to.

I also think it's unfair to place such a blame on a collective were so many innocent people were placed, people who just fought for their country and lifes not for hitler.

There is a certain deal of blame to put on the germans and wehrmacht for what happened during WW2 and in the years prior to it, I agree with that. But not enough to go as far as calling every german soldier a "nazi" soldier.

That's going too far, at least from my point of view (that I like to think it's as objective, unbiased and neutral as you can get).
