Grass is also a very easy target as most other young German men and older teenagers who survived WWII, more or less every German male born between 1915 and 1930 served in the military. You can just see the Pope as a other example, who is blamed for being (quite involuntary) member of the Hitler Jugend and his service in the Wehrmacht.
Pretty much as Kashubians, Silesians, Luxembourgian, many of whom were involuntairly drafted into Wehrmacht by occupants. Well, I suppouse for some they are just HPs because of this, in fact, tragedy :/
