From birth, Nazi propaganda bombarded children with images romanticizing war and a glorious death for the Fuehrer and Fatherland. Much of its activities focused on outdoor life and exercise, as well as other exercises aimed at ensuring loyalty towards the Nazi Party and laying the foundations for pre-military preparation. Well over three million boys and girls were involved in organizations such as the Hitler Youth. Evidence of the intensity of the indoctrination program can be seen in the use of some 200,000 special trains to transport 5,000,000 German youth to the 12,000 HJ camps during the reign of the Third Reich. With an incredible selection of photographs, most of which are previously unpublished, Paul Garson offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of children of the Third Reich.
