Yes, it's true some people in charge of #NATO early on had a past in the German army. But this was right after the war, and the main idea was to bring West Germany into the group to stand strong against the #SovietUnion . They were picked for their military knowledge, not for their old loyalties. NATO has changed a lot since then, and this old history doesn't show what NATO is today.
