A true story. A former Hitler Youth, an SS major's
son, runs for his life in war-torn Europe . . . sees his father
shot down by guerrillas . . . rebuilds his life from the ruins .
. . and leaves Hitler's SS emblem for another symbol.
EXCERPTS FROM UNDER THE SS SHADOW
In an official declaration, my father stated that he and his family
had left the state church. We were Gottglaubig. The SS symbol became
the point of reference for our family.
We of the Hitler Youth were going forward with Hitler, we were
sure. Several years later, as I huddled in a foxhole, I wondered
where we were going or where we could go.
"I feel like a man sitting in a car that's going down a hill,"
my father said, "but it's too late to get out."
May 7, 1945, Germany officially surrendered to the Western Allies.
On May 9, Russian troops marched into Berlin. I could not even guess
what the future held for me. I'm not sure I wanted to know.
Augsburg is about fifty miles from Dachau, location of the infamous
concentration camp. Only after the war did we discover what had
happened at our doorstep.
