Hitler Youth The Hitler Youth Archive Topic - I Need You!
RAF635SQ posted a topic in Picture Gallery
Hi everyone! I need as much help here as possible. I am trying to collect a digital archive of anything Hitler Youth, anything. From photos to flags, I am looking for as much to do with the organisation as possible. Post as much as you want here. I plan on making the archive public at a later stage for the benefit of all collectors. Got any items you need help with? Post them here! Reference on modern replicas is a must-have as well as genuine items. The Hitler Youth is like a few other Nazi organisations, annoying and hard to research on in certain areas, for example the musical instruments and vehicle units. We only know so much about certain aspects and items, the key to further research and findings is in private collectors who may have unseen photos or items. There are some great books, many of which I own, but I am still certain there is missing information and items, especially with rare HJ divisions such as the Kreigsmarine units. I still am finding information and new facts that I cannot trace to current books, this is why I think there is more to be uncovered and made public. I really would appreciate anything you can post. I have been through the forum already looking for bits so have amassed a fairly large and organised folder already. Thanks everyone, Kyle -
Unusual helmet with Luftwaffe and HJ emblem - has anyone seen one of those before? Found under following link of Svenska Dagbladet (article in Swedish) Article was by Dr. Barbro Eberan, who lives in Hamburg and began her academic career there in 1959. She has written numerous critical books about the "Nazi-Zeit" I first met her in the mid 1970s. Two of her most notable books are "Wer war an Hitler Schuld?" and "Var Hitler en demon?" https://www.svd.se/unga-nazister-blev-tysklands-demokrater
