And you know this how? NO German personnel?Personal conversation with noted historian Gerhard Weinberg. I challenge you to find an example in the historical record where this occurred. German personnel who refused to kill Jews were either assigned other duties or transferred to other units.

Hmm.. yes that seems to be the historians universal belief. Since I don't have proof to the contrary I would tend to believe that is most likely the case. Saying "No" German personnel is far too cut a dry for the simple fact no one person knows every case. I did find this:
However, officers such as Hornig were imprisoned, beaten, stripped of rank and prestige and threatened with death for their impertinence. Hornig, a staunch Catholic, actually ended up in a Jewish concentration camp with those he did not kill.

During this wartime scene under this mad dictator, you’re saying armed forces could just do-si-do at will? He believed in conscience protections after all, a soft side to the old madman?
