Hate and Vengeance
Good old General von Ludendorff addressed the Kommers Beer Festival of the Academic Association of Munich Turners (Gymnasts) at the Pan-German Turners' Congress.
Said he: "German unity, honor and freedom are based on German character, discipline and fighting power . . .
"The German nature demands of youth respect for experience and past services to the Fatherland, and from us all demands a burning, passionate love of the Fatherland and hate and vengeance against our enemies . . .
"Strengthen your fist and spirit. It is the spirit that makes the fist rise and fall on the head of the Fatherland's enemies."
Loud cheers.
