What+was+the+Hitler+Youth?

"I begin with the young. We older ones are used up, but my magnificent youngsters! Look at these men and boys! What material! With them, I can create a new world! (Adolf Hitler, Back Cover) Hitler Youth (Book)

The Hitler youth was a program created by Hitler to transition young boys (and a separate program for girls), into the army, and to harden them for the challenges of war. Activities in the program consisted of various tasks; one example is the proper use of firearms. The program for girls known as the League of German girls did things to help the war at home, like making supplies in factories and other such things. Most of the children in the youth eventually transferred to the army.
