Blitzed: Nazis On Drugs (WW2 Documentary) | History Documentary | Reel Truth History

Lots of evidence for this.

I know about it...there was a mil history channel documentary on the whole thing...how they tested it, recounted in the show, on camp prisoners forced to walk using it, the drug was apparently called pervitin, a methamphetamine, till they literally dropped, surpassed just about all the horror stories I'd ever heard of those maniacs...if I can find the docjmentary, I'll try to send it in...I hadn't known about the whole thing till I'd seen it...evidently, a crashed pilot of those lunatics had it in his med kit in the plane wreckage, wrapped in foil, that's how the Brits learned of it...they then experimented to find the right way to do it, usjng, I believe benzedrine, though properly...it was apparently first used by the Brits at El Alamein, the show has recounted, and, I'd expect, during the rest of the war, I'd suppose, though the show didn't go into the topic in that level of depth, I'm afraid, so that just a supposition on my part, of course....

Several programs - one of which was titled "High Hitler" which leaves the potential viewer under the impression that the show is about Hitler's drug use. Its actually not. Its about propaganda and how the average German soldier marched everywhere. Unlike his propaganda movie alter ego who rode in a shiny new half track, cradled a submachine gun and was surrounded by tons of Panzer III's. In reality, the majority of the army was on foot. So to meet the goals of the movie - to keep fear festering in the hearts of their enemies, the German army was using large amounts of amphetimines so that a 20 mile march wearing full gear is a piece of cake. This also plays into the superman myth as the few Germans who you'll tangle with, will be crazed and wild-eyed and have superhuman strength due to the drugs.
