Was the new pope in the Waffen SS "Hitlerjugend"? |
|
I have seen comments that the hitler Youth was like the boy Scouts, but that is not the full story. There was a SS division of the same name that fought for the first time in Normandy, and they were quite fanatical. Did he serve with this division?

9. No need for that type of answer... |
|
I said that it served for the first time in Normandy...they eventually served elsewhere too. They may have served near Munich as well.

I am a little on the edge. First the blow of having Ratzi as pope and then I end up having to defend him.

4. No, he most certainly was not with the 21st SS. |
|
And yes, that was a horribly nasty, brainwashed unit.
