Re: German escape attempts during WW2?
Germany started a program 2 years ago to locate and bring the remains of their soldiers home from eastern Europe and Russia. It is a difficult job locating the war graves because the Russians destroyed all German grave markers after the war. They are trying to use hand drawn maps and commander's reports to locate the burial sites but much has changed since 1945.

Re: German escape attempts during WW2?
That's debatable. Many germans willingly worked for the allied nations, in various programmes. Just read up on the development of the A10 "Warthog" ground attack aircraft, and the various space missions.
Loyalty to their country, and loyalty to the nutjob in chief, should not be confused... Ask the Americans... or the South Africans.
