Tater - it took 18 months for me to get a security clearance - because my grandfather (on my mother's side) was a Nazi Party member. Know what they learned? The same thing that I already knew - he was asked one day if he was a member of the Nazi Party in 1944 - with a gun to his head. He had 2 children and one on the way (my mother), so ask yourself what you would have answered in his place....
To protect his life and his family he had to register as a party member. Not every "nazi" believed in ole Adolph, or racial supremecy, or any of the rest of the bullcrap that came from that regime. Some simply didn't have a choice given the political climate they were in.
