A disturbing and little-known aspect of the Nazi slave labor system was the involvement of big business. Many of the most respected German corporations had no scruples about using concentration camp labor. A company’s decision to use slave labor was voluntary. By the end of 1944, one half a million ghetto and concentration camp inmates were chained to hundreds of corporations. The greatest offenders were either state-owned enterprises – such as BRABAG, the Herman Goring Works, and Volkswagen – or munitions and arms makers, such as Junkers, Messerschmitt, Heinkel, Krupp, Dynamit Nobel, and Rheinmetall-Borsig. By 1943, almost every major private corporation was complicit, including BMW.

The past is the past in my book. Additionally, in case you didn't know, service in the military under Hitler wasn't voluntary.
