Hitler Youth
Above -- Hitler Youth perform in the Hour of Commemoration in front of the town hall in Tomaszow, Poland in 1941. Their flags bear the ancient Germanic Sig-Rune 'S' symbolic of victory.
"My program for educating youth is hard. Weakness must be hammered away. In my castles of the Teutonic Order a youth will grow up before which the world will tremble. I want a brutal, domineering, fearless, cruel youth. Youth must be all that. It must bear pain. There must be nothing weak and gentle about it. The free, splendid beast of prey must once again flash from its eyes...That is how I will eradicate thousands of years of human domestication...That is how I will create the New Order." --

Youth: Background http://histclo.hispeed.com/youth/youth/org/nat/hitler/hitlerb.htm
Hitler envisioned an entire generation of obedient fighter pilots and panzer
commanders extending the domination of the Reich to the farthest reaches of
the world and implementing his chilling vision of the future. Many idealistic
German boys were attracted by the powerful nationalist appeal of Hitler and
the NAZIs. The Hitler Youth (HJ) movement played an important role in the
NAZI seizure of power. Armed with the authority of the German state, the NAZIs
created perhaps the most effective youth organization ever used an an arm
of state power.
