Holocaust Story help

[KriegsmarineFreak]

You guys have probably been wondering why I've been asking so many questions about the Holocaust but currently I'm working on a historical fiction Holocaust book. I've just been trying to figure out which organizations of the German military were involved in the Holocaust. Could you guys pinpoint me to any resourceful Holocaust websites? Also I've been wondering was the Panzer Korps involved in the Holocaust at all? If so, what did they do?

That is a controversial subject. There is an emotional desire to express indignation by spreading blame, and it has undoubtably caught people it shouldn't have at times. However it is, from what I have read, pretty well established that the Wehrmacht did take part. However they did so haphazardly. For instance a death squad would need some extra hands and send over for some. According to one version I have read, some thought it a point of loyalty not to sneak out of a distasteful job while their comrades were doing it. An attitude more proper to latrine cleaning or sentry-go then to such a thing. But strange things happen when one is supporting such a strange government. On the other hand nothing is ever that simple. For instance at least one Wehrmacht officer managed to get in the Yad Vashem for interfering in the SS's work.
As for the Panzer Korp's, it is hard to belief that they did much of that sort of thing primarily because they didn't have time. They were expected to penetrate and exploit enemy lines on offense and act as fire brigade on defense. However there is probably something attributed to them. I can easily see the Regime ordering someone to make sure they were involved to assure that they stuck to the Regime for fear of revenge after the war.
