re: #149 Targetpractice

Oh, it’s a fair point. Thing is, unless a true-believer like Himmler or Reinhardt came to power, the most likely replacements were either decorated generals or aristocrats. Such men would have been quick to denounce the Nazi regime and blame it for the pointless war the nation found itself in.

But would have replaced it with another authoritarian regime, more like Franco’s Spain than the Modern Germany we know and love. Even at that, it took over 20 years before the last old Nazis were run out of their positions (or simply retired) as judges, administrators or university professors.
