Re: Luftwaffe personnel and Nazi-party membership

My impression is that to succeed in Nazi Germany, being a member of the NDASP was almost mandatory, or at least much denazified people claimed that. But I can understand that claiming being a partisan of the regime really helped one's carreer.

It seems to me that a good part of the important people in industry, education, culture and so on were members of the Nazi party and I just wonder if much Luftwaffe generals did the same or not. After all Goering was a member of the party, and of the Luftwaffe.
