About this title

Synopsis

The never before told story behind Hitler's secret program to breed "The Master Race." Most of the chosen men were members of the SS; and both men and women were chosen on the basis of their shape, form and coloring. Blond and blue-eyed, the men tall, the women wide-hipped for childbearing, there were to create children "of pure blood." The children born were graded; the most desirable were adopted and the others sterilized or eliminated. Documented for the first time is the wholesale kidnapping of hundreds of thousands of "desirable" non-German children from other countries for the purpose of adding to Germany's breeding stock; and never saw their families again - those that didn't pass genetic inspection were "disposed of." It has now been proven that many of these "Maternity Homes" were simply houses for the Gestapo.
