Schoolboys walking arm in arm, Essen 1937

Nine or ten boys in shorts and knee socks, satchels on their backs, link arms across the road and march off in step, one of them waving his cap in the air; in a wider view the line moves on towards a big tree and a row of brick houses. At last only two remain, their arms round each other's shoulders and their satchels bumping as they walk. The Hitler Youth law of December 1936 claimed boys of this age for the Jungvolk, the youngest branch of the Hitler Youth, alongside school and family.
