Opps, I am sorry about your father, I didn't mean any offence by my post, it was more of a rethorical question.
Well you should feel very welcome here and we are privlaged to have you and to know that your grandfather although an SS soldier was still a soldier of Germany, who knows maybe he was a pleasant SS man, who had no choice but to join them, better to think that then that he was like all the SS men we read about.
