he only served in the Army in WW2 after the Germans attacked the Soviet Union, not before. A sunshine patriot on the Left.

If that's your criteria, the same can be said ofl millions of Anericans, since the Germans invaded Russia six months before Pearl Harbor.

You missed the history charade in my comment. Until the Germans attacked the Soviet Union, the cry from the Left was “No intervention” in European wars. “The Americans are not coming” (from a CPUSA poster). etc.

Once Moscow was threatened, American Communists enlisted in the Armed Forces. They were fighting to save the Soviets, not for European freedom.

This type of behavior marked the American Communists role in many activities. Always doing something to advance communism, not the actual “cause”.
