| I read (and hear) the lyrics, and my head says conscripts on the Nazi side in WW2. Aside from the obvious "crooked cross", you have "trapped by a cause that I once understood", maybe relating to the fact Hitler was voted into power. | |

| I agree it is about hitler's true intentions. Jeff Hanneman is interested in WWII. Another song mentioning Nazis is "Angel of Death". | |
