Update: Willis Carto Buried in Arlington National Cemetery with Full Military Honors

Willis Carto, prominent White Nationalist personality and ally of National Socialism, was buried in Arlington National Cemetery on February 17, 2016, with full military honors. He had died the previous October.

Carto was eligible for military burial in the prestigious Arlington cemetery because of his service in the US Army during World War II.

Carto graduated high school in 1944, in the midst of the war. He immediately enlisted, and was posted to the Americal Infantry Division, which fought in the Pacific Theater. On May 5, 1945, infantryman Carto was wounded by a Japanese sniper on the Phillipines island of Cebu. He was awarded a Purple Heart for his injury, and was thereby made eligible for internment in Arlington.

Carto’s burial with honors in the national cemetery was widely criticized in Jewish circles, because of Carto’s lifelong opposition to Jewish supremacism. The Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust Studies denounced the burial as “a disgrace,” a sentiment that was echoed by the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith. Leading Israeli newspapers joined in the condemnation.

However, a spokesman for the cemetery explained that the decision to allow the burial was based on objective criteria which Carto satisfied, and which did not include an assessment of the deceased’s political views.

The irony of the situation is that Willis Carto was wounded fighting on the side of Jewish interests during the war. Consequently, some might find their petty-minded hostility to his burial evidence of Jewish hypocrisy and an ungrateful frame of mind.

But Carto himself would have understood their opposition. Shortly after the war he came to the conclusion that he had fought on the wrong side. He spent the balance of his life redressing his mistaken decision to fight for the Jews.

Later he famously wrote, “Hitler’s defeat in World War II was the defeat of Europe. And America.”
