    Yes, and there were plenty of high level Nazi who rose to power in East Germany… Just because Vincenz Müller was chief of staff for the east German army doesn’t mean the Soviets were an evolution of the Nazi state.

    It just means that both sides utilized Germans to deter or lead a conflict that was likely going to take place in Germany, and that pretty much all Germans with military or political experience post WW2 were at some point Nazi.
