Service in the Wehrmacht was compulsory; anyone could have been drafted, even those who didn't support Hitler. Even though millions of soldiers had a swastika on their uniform, only an absent-minded observer would claim they're all "Nazis." And the Wehrmacht was not a defense force. It was the standing army that traced it's lineage back to the Prussian days. The SS on the other hand, was created specifically during Hitler's reign. Please refrain from thinking about this anymore. It's painful. Mmm nope. Service in the Wehrmacht was compulsory; anyone could have been drafted, even those who didn’t support Hitler.

It still had the EM eagle on it so it had a swastika. Nazi is what Military and Political persons were called back then so no matter what it was a "Nazi" uniform.

Let's not toss around the word Nazi lightly. Anyways, pretty dumb no matter what you are wearing... Was he wearing a Nazi uniform, or just a Wehrmacht uniform?
