Description
Many of the crimes for which doctors were charged during the Nazi era occurred in hospitals where nurses made up the main work force. Midwives were mandated to report infants born with deformities so they could be killed, and the midwives were paid to do so. Nazism dominated every aspect of life; the individual is nothing but the state is all, and is personified by the leader.
