The Leibstandarte was an armed political force in the 1930s without elite guards status in a military sense. The heir to the guard tradition in the German armed forces was, if anything, the Grossdeutschland Regiment, not the Leibstandarte. Tja Sid...that is your personal opinion bar every real evid...

No Sid, not everybody joining the SS was an political animal. Choosing the SS was also a career move par excellence, especially for ambitious people who didn't had the necessary background to make a career in the Wehrmacht! Remember Kurt Sametreiter and Co? One of the veterans said it....he decided ...

...But there is one key difference. Von Stauffenburg was never an Adjutant to, and thus an important administrative functionary of, the Reichsfuehrer-SS und Chef der deutschen Polizei. ... Agreed! Another key difference: Peiper never spoke out for Hitler against Hindenburg officially during the vot...

That's exactly the problem Sid! All is seen with hindsight today and Stauffenberg WAS close to the Nazis and their ideas from the beginning!

Why Peiper is seen as a knight by many? Why is there a movie filmed about Stauffenberg right now..who from the beginning was close to the Nazis and their ideas?
