Citation please.


I returned those books so you will have to give me a couple of days. However, originally I said all, I think it's probably more accurate to say early SS officers.

Some of this stemmed from the requirement that SS officers prove the Aryan linage back to 1800. However the whole of Germany didn't begin issuing birth certificates until 1876. The only other record the SS would accept was baptismal records, creating a defacto requirement that SS officers be Christian.


You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.
