Think ill stick with the Holocaust novels

Painting by Jeanne Bucher Jaegar (1940) which would have been around at the same time as Waffen SS battalions and Einsatzgruppen death squads I imagine.

Jaeger....

The death squads did not really begin until the Germans invaded the Soviet Union, so essentially after June 1941, though I imagine there would have been limited amounts of Death Squads in Poland before Operation Barbarossa.

It allows you to remind me of the exact months in 1941 where German death squads were in operation

If you suggest that the short barrelled 75mm gun on the Sherman had decent penetrating power I am going to come down on you like a tonne of bricks.

I think of that too, and the Waffen SS marching on Poland for some reason. Not my favorite thread.

On the plus side, the Waffen SS had very very high casualties on the Eastern Front. Of course the Wehrmacht committed war crimes as well, but no where near to the extent as the SS.

There was a time the Wehrmacht were seen as above war crimes. But that has been exposed as pure fallacy on Eastern Front esp

Agreed. I watched an interesting lecture on the crimes of the Wehrmacht and while they did not do the things the SS did, they did provide a lot of logistical support for the SS, and of course they committed war crimes all on their own. The Wehrmacht had good people in it (and bad) but they were a product of their time and where they grew up so there were a lot of racists in it, racists who thought killing Jewish people was a good idea.

How's the casting.

How's the casting.

Phoebe Cates the star

How's the casting.

The cast is very young, which goes with the director George Lucas stories in Hollywood.
