WWII Veteran Harald Mayrock was interviewed in Lima, Peru on February 10, 2015. Gefreiter Mayrock was a German Paratrooper who served in a heavy mortar platoon with the 7th Paratrooper Division, 1st Company of the Luftwaffe. Harald was born in Lima, Peru to German parents. As fate would have it, Harald was sent to a prestigious school in Germany when WWII broke out and was drafted into the Luftwaffe. Harald ends his story with how he was captured and was able to finally make his way back to Lima to reunite with his family. @MakingHistoryProject

I have a problem with listening German WW2 vertrans. They were on the wrong side of history and they knew it. " just doing what they were told". BS!
