"Other generations learn from heroic sagas, from heroic campaigns. We have lived this saga and marched in its wake. Whether the name of each of us is preserved for posterity is irrelevant. We are all bound together in a single, grand phenomenon. It will endure. It will never fade away in Germany, and from the sacrifices of the first fighters, the strength to sacrifice will always be renewed."
— Adolf Hitler
