great debate going on here!
love the info on the stamm, garry. found out most of what you say, but some new thinks where added. great job, as always...
as for the colored boys in the hj, I'm not that surpriced to see those pics, considering the axes are not an all-white people agreement. However i would think that some of the members would have looked up in a funny kind of way when they met a fellow member/soldier whose not white. excepted the asian once: the alliance with japan was well known in germany.....
I think they even didn't think much about the colored people as ordinarry member or soldier. they had a job to do, ordered by their superiors, and the only important thing was that they could relie on the man next in line, white or not.....
rasism is such a disgusting thing. I really don't untherstand why even nowadays, people start out from the idea that only white people where allowed into the military and hj. I 've even once found a pic online of a "black" (hope this is politicaly correct) person with a nsdap pin attached to his breastpocket of his jacket.
