re: You ever feel bad that Germany doesn't have any sort of World War 2 Wehrmacht memorials?

They have cemeteries.

But kids don't got to Klaus Barbie Elementary School on Hitler Lane.

Meanwhile, our chilluns go to Lee High on Raphael Semmes Drive.


This.

Germany pretty much wiped out any reference to the Nazis. No memorials or anything that would come close to honoring them. Hell you can't even buy german model airplanes in germany if there is a swastika on the plane.

Yes but there are still a few memorials to the Wehrmacht scattered around the country and at least one U-boat memorial that I have visited. Obviously. swastikas and Nazi party stuff are verboten although my barracks in Germany still had swastikas carved in the walls, they were just painted over.
