Not Work Safe .


Funny. I sent this to my partners husband. He's a jew. She's an ethnic German.

His grandfather was a US Army troop in WW2. Hers was a Vermacht troop in WW2, on the wall at their home, there's pics of both of them on wall. Lol

I have a coworker, I actually hired him in the ED 15 years ago and now he works in my department, who is very Jewish. He's also very base. I sent it to him, he laughed his ass off.

He said he has a friend who is German and they were joking around, and his friend said "guys, we need to stop joking around. I had a relative die in the holocaust." My buddy Adam said everyone apologized and got serious, then his friend said "my relative fell out of a guard tower at Auschwitz."

I saw it, I immediately stole it and sent to 3 closest friends. Lol

I posted something similar that happened to me years ago. It shut down a couple of Holocaust deniers.
 
My wife's paternal side of the family were German Bund's. I never knew that until a few years ago when her grandmother had passed I had helped with the estate affairs and that's when it came to light. Apparently she had loved me like another grandchild so much, she was so ashamed of her family's past and never wanted it to come to light.
 
None of us have any control over what our ancestors did, Bro.

About 4 years ago I got into genealogy. My mother is from eastern North Carolina with significant family from Eastern Virginia, my dad was from Wisconsin. I have found people who fought for the North and the South, slave owners and tenant farmers, and everything in between. It is what it is.

Same here. My Irish peeps entered in NC and gradually moved north to the midwest. I had family who fought on both sides. Now, I have family in California who are more embarrassing. Lol. They are my still my peeps.
 
10-15 years ago I had a co-worker whose uncle or great-uncle (I forget) "fought for the Germans" in WWII. I helped find the family member, we even found a picture of him!

In his SS Sicherhiestdienst dress uniform. My man was a no kidding war criminal.

Genealogy is fun.

On one of those survival shows on TV one of the guys said, "nature is neither for you nor against you; it just 'is'". Genealogy is the same. The only time I take pleasure in finding skeletons is if someone deserves it. I had a very racist cousin, hated black people, our tree not only had slave owners, but also cross-pollination with blacks. He refused to believe 'our' family had, uh, intimate relations with non-Caucasians.
