Boxcars711 Old Time Radio Pod - This Is Our Enemy "The Hitler Youth Movement" (9-13-42)


The Hitler Youth Movement (Aired September 13, 1942)


THIS IS OUR ENEMY is one of a number of war propaganda presentations that were popular during the years leading up to and during World War II. In this episode, parents are asked to send their children, most sickly from food and staple rationing, to a camp that would "make them strong again". During the time away from home, the youth attended "school" which resulted in pro-nazi indoctrination into the "Youth Movement". As members of the Black Brigade and "servants of the Fuhrer", brainwashed children now report on any anti nazi sentiment, even turning in their own families. Narration by war correspondent and author, Mr. Henry J. Taylor, the last American able to get into and out of Germany as the war began.
