Girls running and throwing the javelin, 1937

Beneath tall pines a file of girls in white vests and dark shorts runs across a field; then, in a line on the grass, girls hold javelins drawn back and practise the throwing movement together. Hitler had written in Mein Kampf that the education of the young should begin with the body, and girls' schools and the League of German Girls gave sport a place it had never had before.
