We have the same right to honour our veterans as you have to honour yours, even though our veterans were on the "wrong" side.
Honoring those ancestors is different from honoring the Wehrmact. The Wehrmact fought to defend Nazi Germany, and every minute they held their ground was one more minute the concentration camps were killing people.
