The most feared element of the German army :) My grandpa was one of them. He fought in the 12th SS Panzer Division with much honor and distinction during the Normandy Breakout, and in the last few weeks of the war was one of the last defenders of the Riechstag in Berlin when the Soviets finally broke through and took the building. By the grace of God he wasnt killed, he was fortunate to fall into the hands of the well-disciplined frontline Russian troops.

Be careful...Americans are really ignorant. You shouldn't tell people he was with the SS...they are sadly deporting Germans from America for something they did many years ago because this country is rude and unforgiving. They cannot let go of the past, and for that I am ashamed to live here.

One thing you'll learn about America if you haven't already, we are a very corrupt system with a lot of twisted people backing us and commanding our government, and we like to hold a grudge. I don't know if you know this or not, but back during WWII, after the war happened. Truman ordered any Germans (military or civilian) to be killed. German-Americans or Germans in general. In my opinion he was a wicked man. Now a lot of people will fight me on this and call me a nazi, and whatever to them I say. I know a lot of things that could get myself deported -_- America basically did the same thing they claim the Germans did (killing the jews etc.) but they did it to Germans and then later on Japanese in camps that were supposed to help the Japanese during the War, but they were slaughtered, beaten, raped etc. (American Concentration Camps) America is a giant hipocrite. I'm not anti-American either, I just know the facts and have accepted them. It doesn't mean I'm bad for being American, it just shames me.

Well ive known the government was corrupted for a long time. Its easy to see when you see what they're spending all out money on. Obama is running this country dry, and America is doing nothing about it. Its sickening....sickening.

Yeah he is. I cant stand Obama, but I figure with any president we get it seems like theyre gonna be a screwup and they have been. Im not too into politics for the sole reason its all a lot of bull and lies, so why wrap myself up in it.

:iconrommel101:
I agree with that...every president we get is worse than the last. Its best not to get involved in all that mess...we have enough to worry about on the local level as it is.
