- My dads side of the family used to have a plantation in the Dutch East-Indies before that whole thing went tits up during the war. - My great-great-grandfather's job was to map New Guinea and he killed a few natives for basically not understanding what he told them. - And theres a big possibility that my great-grandmother was a 'comfort girl' for the Japanese during the war, while her husband was taking a vacation working on the Burma railway. Fun times! - On my moms side, my opa was part of the Rawagede massacre where the Dutch Army killed all the men in that village. Never really recovered from that clusterfuck (he was a 19 year old conscript). - And to top it all off, basically all the brothers and sisters from my Oma moved to South Africa in the '50s because they thought Apartheid was the greatest thing ever.

Blue Footed Booby posted:FYI while some of those Hitler youth units were random groups of boys, some were as fanatical and brutal as the SS. A number were involved in war crimes. The Hitlerjugend guys in Normandy were actually the the 12th SS Panzer Division, so hardly 14 year old kids running messages or lugging shells for the home defence AAA guns, but fanatical cold rear end motherfuckers. Be proud of your grandpa!
