    Well, as far as I know, he was never personally investigated, but the division was, and they didn’t find any conclusive evidence.

    Either way, surely they could have found someone who didn’t fight the Allies during WWII to make an appearance?

      Yeah. This is a major gaffe. I’ve seen the odd post villanizing this dude in particular, which I’m not sure is called for. (I don’t know it’s not, but I’m hesitant to yell at a 90 year old over what uniform they wore when they were younger than I am now.) Regardless of who the dude is or was though, it’s a bad look, and they do deserve to be called out on the eminently stupid oversight to not to the bare minimum of research before choosing someone to bring in.
