I dont understand the writing below:
The moderator had to disconnect the following Generals/Admirals.
They do not belong to the superordinate concept "war criminals" in this context !!
It should not be allowed to measure everything by the same yardstick !!
And this admiral :
Otto von Schrader (born March 18, 1888 in Lyck, East Prussia, † 19 July 1945 in Bergen, Norway(suicide) was a German naval officer, Admiral during World War II
Why is he not regarded as a war criminal by Dieter Z.

To turn the question round why is he a war criminal .Do you mean that all members of the Wehrmacht were war criminals ??

Adm.Schräder shot himself in his bunker when he was to be arrested and charged for war crimes.
The killing of the crew of MTB 345 was one of the cases. A war criminal seen from British and Norwegian point of view.
Do you mean that all members of the Wehrmacht were war criminals ??
If you can find anything in my postings in this forum that suggest something like that, please inform me at once.

I have to questioning Ansata what he means with this. A lot of Germans took their lifes when Germany surrendered both in 1945 and in 1918, just because they lost the wars, and to make such generlized claim as you did in this post is for me stunning. NOT all Germans comitted suicide just because they was suspected warcriminals.

As an ex "war criminal" by association, ( a Waffen SS noncom, promoted at the last minute) I have a not quite accurate, but sufficient answer to the question 'who is a war criminal.

"ANY general, officer, nocom, and soldier, of the country that lost the war is BAD :( ; and thus a war crininal.

ANY general, officer, noncom, and soldier of the winning party is "GOOG" and thus a hero. 8O

Cinical ?? yes, ! but look at the records of German-, Russian-, British-, and American Generals and/or top offivers. :roll:

Saints and sinners ? Oh well.
