A myth was created by Western (especially U.S.) propaganda systems after World War II that the Wehrmacht had "clean hands" and was not involved in the innumerable atrocities, war crimes, and mass exterminations that were fundamental aspects of the Third Reich's strategy during the war. This lie was promulgated in order to enlist West Germany and its reconstituted armed forces into the anti-Soviet bloc created by the U.S. after the war's end.

The first mass murder of Jews was committed by the Wehrmacht, in Serbia in 1941. Throughout the war, the Wehrmacht played an essential role in the Holocaust, the murder of millions of Soviet POWs, and other crimes.

The myth of military "honor:" The Wehrmacht "Honor Court," a kangaroo court which did not allow the accused or attorneys for them to appear, greased the skids for the murder of officers suspected in the 1944 failed assassination attempt of Hitler. Hitler bribed his top generals, including 2 of the 3 on the "Honor Court." 

These are the fascist scum the U.S. eagerly recruited after World War II to lead the reconstituted German army.

Professor Gerhard, who is known among professional historians of the war as the "Dean" of their specialty, was answering an audience question at a forum in 2003. This clip is from the video, "Hitler's Second Book Ideas That Were Too Provocative for Publication (2003) - The Best Documentary."
