Question

developing historical perspective at the trials, many nazis defended themselves by saying they were only following orders, what does this rationale tell you about the german military

Answer 1

The German military must have made an effort to absolve itself of any possible involvement for the death of the Jews. Because they chose to follow orders and participated in mass extermination Holocaust , it is critical to refute this defense.

The German military contributed to the racial, political, and territorial goals of Nazism during World War II. The idea that the German military, or Wehrmacht, was not complicit in the Holocaust and other atrocities stemming from Nazi genocidal policy remained for a very long time after the war. This assertion is false. The German military took involvement in numerous parts of the Holocaust, including the use of forced labor, the support of Hitler, and the extermination of Jews and other groups that the Nazis targeted.
