Ehhh I'm in two minds about this really. If he was a Nazi war criminal then yes but a 19 year old guard posted there under orders? And deporting him aged 95? Really what's the point, unless he did something "above and beyond" basic guard duties. Essentially what they're saying is, that a 19 year old basic army grunt should have taken a moral stand against actual SS officers, knowing full well what those men were capable of. It's a bit of a stretch. I can imagine a tonne of today's teens-and-early-20's telling themselves and everyone else, "Well, I wouldn't have done it! I would have taken a stand!!" ... no you wouldn't you'd have kept your head down and followed orders. I think it's VITALLY IMPORTANT to understand this, in fact.
