Re: Luftwaffe personnel and Nazi-party membership

Hello!

No, Moelders was never a member of the Party, not even Hans-Ulrich Rudel ever entered the NSDAP, although his ideals during and after the war were very much stuck in the Nazi mold!

Roger is correct, from 21.05.1935 on, an active member of the Wehrmacht was not allowed to be a member of the NSDAP ( this didn’t apply to a soldier in the reserve). This ended though on the 24.09.45., when it was cancelled. From that date on, no problem with a membership.

Friendly greetings

Hans Krensler
