[nazis] lebensborn children meet

Found this quite moving: The Lebensborn "source of life" children were part of Nazi racial experiments. While millions of Jews and others deemed "undesirable" were being slaughtered, thousands of children were selected for Aryan physical qualities and given to families of Hitler's special police. Now, a meeting of 60 members of the Lebensspuren "traces of life" group, formed last year, is being held in Wernigerode, a town where the Nazis ran a Lebensborn home. It’s a struggle to imagine what it must have been like in those days in Germany.
