“The German lust for conquest is not dead. It's merely gone undercover. Somewhere in this Germany are the SS Guards, the Schutzstaffel. Out of uniform, you won't know them. But they'll know you. Out of sight, part of the mob, but still watching you ... and hating you.”
Where did those ex-Nazis go? What happens when a network of military personnel and intelligence is left in an occupation / stay-behind operation across Europe?
“To keep the Soviet Union out, the Americans in, and the Germans down.”
– NATO’s first Secretary-General Lord Hastings Lionel Ismay, on the purpose of the organization.

“Guard particularly against this group. These are the most dangerous: German youth. Children when the Nazi party came into power. They know no other system than the one that poisoned their minds. They're soaked in it. Trained to win by cheating. Trained to pick on the weak. They've heard no free speech. Read no free press. They were brought up on straight propaganda. Products of the worst educational crime in the entire history of the world. Practically everything you believe in they have been trained to hate and destroy. They believe they were born to be masters. That we are inferiors designed to be their slaves. They may deny it now, but they believe it and will try to prove it again. Don't argue with them. Don't try to change their point of view. You are not being sent into Germany as educators. You are soldiers on guard.”
