Subject: Re: When everyone's a Nazi, no one is
Minor quibble. EVERYONE in the military had to swear allegiance to Hitler personally, not just the SS. I think also civil servants had to do it.

The author also doesn't seem to know there were two SS-es. The Waffen SS, which was their elite combat units, and the "normal" SS which was responsible for most of the genocide. The Wehrmacht was the regular army.
