GERMANY: For World War III

¶Gestapoboss Heinrich Himmler’s SchwarzeKorps exhorted able-bodied German boys, who usually go to the front at18, to marry first and beget children. Reason: “Even if the present waris lost, tomorrow’s war can be won by the children of today’ssoldiers.”

In a blue-bound, looseleaf “Memo for CompanyInstruction,” the German High Command announced that every Germanfamily must average four children. Reason: “Every stout boy born in1943 can become a brave soldier in 1963.”
