#953: Guy from Latvia -

A third voluntarily joined the Latvian legion, prior to joining some of them had been in the Arajs team and been auxiliary police.  They joined ther 15 and 19 divisions, the 15 became the most decorated division.

Why do you want to honour men who have such bloody connections?  Why do you wish to have as role models men who collaborated with the Nazis?

Finally, why on earth would anyone in their right mind pay remembrance for an atrocity that would have ended with the ultimate extermination of an entire people?  Historians know very well of the Nazis’ plans to do away with the Latvian (among Baltic) peoples after the planned-for victory. There would have been no Latvia to become independent in 1991.

 

Don't you have better role-models for young Latvians?
