Hitler's Forgotten Nazis - Season 01 - DVD

Feared, superbly well trained and ruthlessly dedicated to realizing their Fuhrer’s monstrous dream of German world superiority, the Waffen-SS looms large in military histories of the 20th century’s most harrowing conflict. However, what most of these accounts fail to mention is that, by war’s end, more than half of these elite commandos were not even German! HITLER'S FORGOTTEN NAZIS provides a powerfully insightful new look at the ferocious “foreign fighters” who swelled the ranks of the SS. Hailing from every part of German-occupied Europe, not to mention North Africa, the Middle East and India, this group eventually numbered upwards of 535,000 men. What motivated these soldiers to place their lives on the line for a racist Reich that despised them? And how did they interact with the ethnically “pure” officers and troops of the Wehrmacht? This startling 4-DVD Collector's Video-Book provides the answers to these and many other questions, shedding light on a long-suppressed aspect of the Nazi war machine! The information-packed 24-page booklet included, explores the complex relationship between the Nazis and the people of all nationalities who fell under the Reich's sway.
