Or at least as strong as everyone else's soldiers.>In July 1943, German war production minister Albert Speer convinced Hitler to authorize women to serve in searchlight and anti-aircraft units with the Luftwaffe, and as many as 100,000 German women would serve in this capacity by the end of the war. As with the ATS, they were fully trained in operating anti-aircraft guns, but were barred from firing them. According to an order Hitler issued in late 1944, no German woman was to be trained in the use of weapons. Nazi propaganda warned women in the auxiliary forces not to become flintenweiber, or “gun women,” a derisive term for Soviet women fighters. In the last, desperate months of the conflict, Hitler gave in and created an experimental women’s infantry battalion, but the war ended before it could be raised.Let's not break an old man's heart without reason.
