Tagline: Hitler Youth to American Soldier (Click Here For Trailer)

Much has been documented about what the Nazis did to the European and Jewish populations, but there is an absence of information regarding what they did to their own people.  Mo attempts to shed a little light on this unexplored subject. 

Produced and Directed by Mo Abersheid.
