"The weak must be chiselled away. I want young men and women who can suffer pain. A young German must be as swift as a greyhound, as tough as leather, and as hard as Krupp's steel."-Adolph Hitler

The Hitler Youth was an organization used to maintain Hitler's idea of a perfect race. It was a time for young men and women to dedicate themselves to the future of the Nazi party. 10 to 18 year old were encouraged to join the Hitler Youth. The group was further seperated into groups by sex. Boys trained for future roles in the military while girls learned skills needed for motherhood.
