Far from the image of an apolitical, "clean" Wehrmacht that
persists in popular memory, German soldiers regularly cooperated
with organizations like the SS in the abuse and murder of countless
individuals during the Second World War. This in-depth study
demonstrates that a key factor in the criminalization of the
Wehrmacht was the intense political indoctrination imposed on its
members. At the instigation of senior leadership, many ordinary
German soldiers and officers became ideological warriors who viewed
their enemies in racial and political terms-a project that was but
one piece of the broader effort to socialize young men during the
Nazi era.
