I'm not sure that this fellow would have necessarily remained a Nazi had he lived a few years longer.

Hitler himself was apoplectic that the German people were fighting back against the French occupation, without the Nazi Party being in the forefront. For that reason, he was opposed to the resistance. This according to Konrad Heiden’s Der Fuhrer.

Like some of his economic ideas, Keynes was full of crap about the Versailles reparations.

It’s hard to believe the French could occupy anything except a factory that manufactures white flags.

How coincidental. I’m doing a lot of genealogical research and just today was studying the occupation of the Rhineland. I was wondering what my occupied ancestors were thinking.

I didn’t realize that there was resistance to the occupation and executions.

Hanns Johst, the Nazi playwright, wrote a play about Schlageter. The famous line, “When I hear the word culture, I reach for my gun,” which has been attributed to various Nazi leaders, comes from the play. The quote actually translates as “When I hear ‘Culture’... I release the safety catch on my Browning!”
