Semper fidelis?
Do Americans not learn about post-war Europe or something?
Antifa was the reason many American soldiers didn't return home. Nazi partisans were none-existant, but Antifa, specifically this exact group, went around killing British and American soldiers in Germany.
Antifa doesn't mean "Anti-Hitler", the Communists didn't differentiate and considered everything West of the Soviet border to be "Fascist"
Wow so Google really doesn't want me to find it - I had to specifically seek out the name of "Bad Nenndorf" to find the incident in question.
The British opened up a really unpleasant version of Disneyworld to handle handle counter-partisan operations after Germany surrendered. Thing is, they opened it with the expectation there would be continuation Nazi partisan fighters - there were none.
There were, however, Antifa attacks against British soldiers, so Antifa ended up getting the shit firmly kicked out of them, with several officers later facing a courtmartial for neglect and murder.
One stated, responding to the allegations:
Stephens was uncompromisingly blunt about the prisoners who had made accusations, declaring that "their motives are invariably foul, most of them are degenerates, most of them come diseased from V.D., many are chronic medical cases ... they are pathological liars, and the value of their Christian oath is therefore doubtful".
Also said:
"No chivalry. No gossip. No cigarettes ... Figuratively, a spy in war should be at the point of a bayonet".
And
"However, physical coercion was forbidden under any circumstances, as it was seen as ineffective: "Violence is taboo, for not only does it produce answers to please, but it lowers the standard of information".
This is referring to Antifa.
