| @120watts: I agree with the your naming convention, but feel obliged to point out that from the mid 30s on, all German soldiers in all branched swore personal loyalty to Hitler, no to the country, constitution, or government. "I swear by God this sacred oath that to the Leader of the German empire and people, Adolf Hitler, supreme commander of the armed forces, I shall render unconditional obedience and that as a brave soldier I shall at all times be prepared to give my life for this oath." |
