Sometimes bad situations bring out bad actions in marginal folks as the 9th Infantry troops happened to be in those days.

It was not mass murder astrocities within the german 'army', Waffen SS, japanese army, Russian army, yes, but not the German Heer. If it was astocities it was what you explained, "bad actions of marginal folks". I am 65 and have studied military History all my life so I did...bother to look.
