Re: Walther Dahl

IMHO, I believe Einsiedel only embraced Communism because he did not believe Hitler would win the war and he wanted to have a better existence after he was shot down.
I have his book and don't find any whole hearted support for Communism.
Remember, he came from an aristocratic family and these generally don't turn into communists

Also, we can look at the case of Graf who also became more Communist leaning after becoming a Russian POW
