Well that’s a title that will catch a fair bit of attention, which I think the WAH series could put to good use. Thanks for the hard work put into this episode team.

It isn't a warcrime if your side wins. 😏

This for Indy -- Usually your pronunciation of non-English names and places is spot on. However, Orël in Russia is not pronounced like 'Oral,' but like "uh-RYOL" with a trilled R.

Along with all the Nazi atrocities, Patton is indeed a war criminal.

How wasn't he a war criminal if he ordered the execution of POWs.

Is there a way to find out what happened after the war with Allied soldiers that committed war crimes but passed court martial?

Sadly all armies in all wars sometimes found prisoners 'inconvenient.

I see YouTube still manages to pester us with advertising, even on an 'advertising free' way of watching...

He wasn't and he didn't order the execution of POWs. He said in his pump up speech to this troops (not a order) to watch out for surrendering troops because he had heard of the reports of what surrendering Japanese troops did. But even with that speech and the not caring about the reports of POWs being executed as much as a modern general would/should have done he still wasn't a war criminal at all. You have to remember you need to judge him by 1940's standards and not the standards of today. Of course today any reports of war crimes passed up to a general need to be taken seriously by them but back before the end of WW2 there were not war crime punishments. Sure there were rules on how nations should act during a war but there was not punishments or a court to convict people if they did something criminally wrong during a war apart from each nations own criminal justice system. And the US was one of the few nations during WW2 to put their troops before court marshal boards for their treatment of enemy troops and actually convict people. In both example cases stated in the video it was determined Patton did nothing wrong and the offending officers couldn't blame Patton on their actions for the pump-up speech he gave. Further along both of those officers were acquitted of the charges against them because there was nobody willing to say in a court of law under the threat of purgery that they did kill those German and Italian POWs. That said if I were a betting man I would bet that they did most likely kill those POWs but at least within the US and I think in most nations in the EU as well the courts act under the innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. So if there is nobody saying a crime occurred that person can't get convicted of that crime since there were not CSI crime tests that could be done to say who shot who in the war.

No, there isn't like a book on that topic. So you would need to do individual investigations on each individual solider accused of a war crime after the war. If you got their names you could then at least in the US search to see if they were arrested and convicted of any other crimes after returning back home. I'd bet many of the accused war criminals who got off, on really what I would call technicalities most likely did get in trouble with the law after they got back home. I mean if someone is already predisposed to committing crimes and they go through war and become desensitized to violence I'd say they are more likely to have then committed violent crimes when they get out of the military. Just another one of the bad things that war causes to happen to the people who have to suffer through it.
