Homefront

Total War.

Bundesarchiv.

In a career highlight, Dr Joseph Goebbels addresses a full house at the Berlin Sportpalast, urging the need for total war to save Germany and Europe from Bolshevism. A timely address, as recent defeats in North Africa and, in particular, at Stalingrad, had persuaded the Nazi administration, finally, to put the German economy (and its satrapies in the Occupied countries), on a full war footing.
