Contemporary historians have transformed our understanding of the
German military in World War II, debunking the "clean Wehrmacht"
myth that held most soldiers innocent of wartime atrocities.
Considerably less attention has been paid to those soldiers at the
end of hostilities. In Postwar Soldiers, Joerg Echternkamp analyzes
three themes in the early history of West Germany: interpretations
of the war during its conclusion and the occupation period;
military veteran communities' self-perceptions; and the public
rehabilitation of the image of the German soldier. As Echternkamp
shows, public controversies around these topics helped to drive the
social processes that legitimized the democratic postwar order.
