Oh for fuck's sake. What the hell am I going to get on a message board besides an anecdote? Did you expect me to demand names and scanned documents so I can factcheck you?
Okay.
You realize we're on a message board and you're not writing a paper for class, right?
Because you're saying your grandfathers fought for Germany in WWII but weren't Nazi supporters, which is interesting and I was wondering if you had anything to back that up--like, say, political leanings (communists, social democrats), religion (were they catholics angry about nazi meddling in church schools?), et cetera?
But no, you failed all over yourself at the sheer AUDACITY of people asking a simple question about your grandparents, who fought in the German army in World War II, which did some pretty fucked up things even if they were drafted.
I'm going to guess you've got nothing. Which is fine. You could have just said "that's just what they always said" and I might've just made a comment about German politics in the 1920s/early 1930s and how interesting it is.

Of course you could be lying about the anecdotes - so could I. We could both be lying about having German grandfathers, for all anyone knows. But surely you see why "I know that my grandfather wasn't a Nazi because when he was [anecdote]" is more believable than "I know that my grandfather wasn't a Nazi BUT I WON'T TELL YOU WHY BECAUSE YOU WON'T BELIEVE ME ANYWAY!!!!!11!"?
