I can't lie I'm quite jealous of the boys that grew up as Hitler Youth. They got to grow up in the most based society ever seen, and many of them went on to die honorably in battle.
Yes we all must die eventually, but dying honorably in battle is a great way to go if you must go.
A weak body is a reflection of a flawed mind.
The Germans knew this all too well.
Leibesübungen (physical training) like; boxing, terrain sports, defense, military workouts, athletics/gymnastics and swimming were mandatory and a collective duty to build a strong nation.
