I wanted to qualify that there were some Waffen-SS conscripts, especially ethnic Germans from Eastern Europe towards the end of the war by which time Germany's strategic situation made the always nebulous ideal of the SS as some kind of a racially and ideologically "elite" formation untenable. For that reason, only a handful of Waffen-SS divisions were truly better equipped and trained than the average Wehrmacht division, fanboy fantasies aside. All that said, this is not really applicable here since the man in question wasn't in some frontline combat formation raised to face the Red Army in the last desperate days of the war but was found to have voluntarily accepted assignment as a camp guard. It's really strange to see an Atlas blue avatar Catholic whinging his hands and talking like some caricature of a moral relativist theological ultraliberal about how only God can judge even the worst of criminals.
