He had no choice. He was baptized a Catholic shortly after he was born and has been a Catholic ever since.
Pope Benedict was never a true Nazi by choice. When he turned 14 years of age in 1941 he was automatically inscribed into the Nazi Party organization for young people as this was the law. He did not choose to join.

From a very early age he wanted to become a priest. When he was only five years of age he was part of a group of school children sent to greet a cardinal who was visiting his home time. Joseph (the future pope) was quite taken by the vestments of the cardinal and told his parents that he "wanted to become a cardinal" when he grew up. He never lost that dream.
The name of the pope that urged people to join the crusades was Pope Urban II.
At the age of 14 all boys in Nazi Germany were automatically enrolled in the Hitler Youth group which meant that young Ratzinger was a member. However, he never attended meetings. Later he was drafted into the army and was assigned to the anti aircraft group. He deserted his post and returned home.
Benedict Arnold
wat
He was forced to join just like everyone else his age in Nazi Germany. His entire family disagreed sharply with the policies of the Nazi's in Germany, and later he and his brother deserted conscripted service to go and become Priests. His WWII story is pretty heroic and plenty of information is only a Google search away.
