During the Nazi regime's swift rise to power, no single target of
nazification took higher priority than Germany's young people. Well
aware that the Nazi party could only thrive through the support of
future generations, Hitler instituted a youth movement, the Hitler
Jugend, which indoctrinated the easily malleable students of
Germany's schools and universities. Along with its female
counterpart in the Bund Deutscher Madel (The League of German
Girls), the Hitler Youth produced thousands of young Germans who
were deeply and fanatically indoctrinated into the Nazi racist
ideology.This illustrated book outlines the history and development
of the Hitler Youth from its origins in 1922 until it was disbanded
by the allied powers in 1945. The topics include: early German
non-Nazi and religious youth movements which were adapted and
absorbed by the Hitler Youth; Baldur von Schirach and other Reich
youth leaders; the Hitler Youth's organization, structure,
uniforms, ranking system, flags, and regalia; sports and other
common training activities; the place and role of women and girls
in the Third Reich; the appearance of German youth opposition
groups such as the Swing Youth and the Edelweiss Pirates; and the
origins, structure, and combat records of the 12th Waffen SS
division, which consisted primarily of Hitler Youth members. The
book also includes appendices providing a chronology and the Hitler
Youth's song ""Vorwarts! Vorwarts!"" (""Forward! Forward!"").
