Default Re: Sword Beach to Bremen., A Veterans tale. Sapper

Thankyou sapper, that is exactly what I had hoped for. It is good to be able to converse with a veteran and ask these kind of questions without the answers being second hand.

I have so many questions, but I am sure you have not only been asked them before, but you are probably getting sick of them comeing from all the members here.

I can see that there is a look of hatred for the SS and I can understand that from what I have read. But do you think all of the soldiers of an SS division were "evil bastards", you having first hand experience in this were there any nice ones, or if not nice, at least respectable to both you and all the allies in general?

I would assume that if they were nice enough to you, you would push them on there way roughly but in general leave them a lone, or was it always brutal between the two sides?
