Boys hauling a glider up a hill, 1937

A dozen boys, most of them stripped to the waist in the sun, lean their shoulders into the struts and wing of a primary glider and push it up a sandy hillside on its wheeled trolley; the swastika on the rudder stands out against the sky. Gliding was the back door to military aviation that the Versailles treaty had closed, and in April 1937 the National Socialist Flying Corps took charge of it; the Hitler Youth fed it with boys like these.

Period: c. June 26, 1937–October 8, 1937
