Yeah, you're greatly simplifying the causes and reasons for WWII happening. It wasn't remotely close to a case of just "good vs. evil", as the war was caused due to geopolitical, egotistical and revenge based motives and a lot of early war operations on the part of Germany were due to (actually justified) paranoia. And it didn't become a case of just "good vs. evil" later on in the war either.

And no, the "vast majority" of Wehrmacht soldiers were not morally corrupt, especially not near the end of the war when anyone who could shoot was forced into the military. Hell, the vast majority of Wehrmacht soldiers likely weren't even Nazis.
