Today we are revisiting the question of "how Nazi was the average German soldier?," based on the latest research. The answer: it's complicated, but ultimately the soldiers did what Hitler wanted them to do even if they weren't all hardcore Nazis.
Of course, it goes without saying that we remain disgusted by everything the Nazis stood for. Their evil ideology had to be destroyed, and thanks to the efforts of millions of Allies - thankfully it was.
