The organization, which was disbanded by the Bonn Government last year, is the “Free Corps Germany. ” It adheres to the 25-point “revised program” of the Nazi Party, advocates anti-Semitism and preaches the other standard Nazi doctrines. Estimates of its North German membership range from 1,000 to 2,000, dedicated and militant Nazis all.
