    I just finished watching "Before the Fall", a story about a poor teen entering one of the Adolf Hitler Schools (Nationalpolitische Lehranstalt) producing future political leaders. Anyway, I could not find any sites detailing these schools. Have any of you run across something? I have heard about these and wanted to know how they compare to the SS Junkerschulen. Thanks.

    Thanks White Flight. I found something interesting in my research. The actor Hardy Kruger (Gruppenfuhrer Ludwig in A Bridge Too Far) is said to have attended one of these Napolas before being drafted into the 38th Waffen SS Division Nibelungen. This at the age of 16.
