Notes
This essay can be read as a second part of my article, ‘Indoctrination and Motivation in the Wehrmacht’, The Journal of Strategic Studies 9 (March 1986), 16–34. Also see my forthcoming book, Trench Level. A View from Below of Hitler's Army. Earlier versions of this article were presented at the Militärgeschichtliches Forschungsamt in Freiburg, as well as at Exeter, Liverpool, Nottingham, and Lancaster Universities. I wish to thank all participants in these lectures for their criticism and advice.
