Baby Cages: The Denazification of Hitler Youth

In a final insane attempt to turn the tide of the war, Hitler recruited from the Hitler Youth, enlisting children as young as 12 years old. Around 10,000 of these young fighters, who were both persecutors and victims, would be taken prisoner by the Americans. A re-education program started at Attichy Camp to steer them towards an attitude of tolerance and democracy. It was called 'Baby Cages'.
