I think it depends on the part of Ukraine you're talking about. Nazi treatment of the population differed greatly in the West and the East, and you can definitely see the effects of this today in the different attitudes toward the war in the various parts of Ukraine. Western Ukraine (Galacia) had been recently taken over by the Soviets, a fact the Nazis used to their advantage.
"SS General" is sort of a Catch-22 in Stalingrad. It's a really dark, funny book told from the POV of a Dane serving in the Nazi army as part of a penal battalion (which Hassell was).
Speaking of which, it's Victory Day!
