: 2 - Six million Jewish human beings slaughtered (which is clearly not,

just nitpicking:
the latest point is not true AFAIU, as the latest number of Jewish
victims is 5.3 mln. Also, most authors for some reason do not count
victims of USSR as "Holocaust victims", and AFAIK there is no
reliable number for those.  

as to the comparison: again, what did the officer compare?
