Minifigure – youth leader from the Hitler Youth (Hitlerjugend) organization of Nazi Germany during the World War II (LEGO Compatible)

This minifigure represents a youth leader from the Hitler Youth (Hitlerjugend) organization of Nazi Germany during the World War II era. The text in the image explicitly identifies his rank as “HJ Oberrottenführer,” which translates to “Hitler Youth Senior Squad Leader.”

He is a generic character representing one of the teenage non-commissioned officers (NCOs) who led younger boys within the Hitler Youth. This organization was responsible for indoctrinating German youth into Nazi ideology and providing pre-military training. During the later years of the war, older members were often used in civil defense or even formed into dedicated military combat units, such as the 12th SS Panzer Division “Hitlerjugend.”

The items in the picture consist of the detailed minifigure and his personal case:

• The toy minifigure is wearing the standard summer uniform of the Hitler Youth, which consisted of a tan shirt, black shorts, and a leather belt with a cross-strap.
• His headgear is a tan M43-style field cap. His identity is confirmed by the distinctive Hitler Youth armband on his left arm, which features a black swastika inside a white diamond symbol.
• The accessory he is holding is a brown briefcase or document case, printed with the letters “H.J.” (the abbreviation for Hitlerjugend) and the Sieg rune, another symbol used by the organization.
