Bund Deutscher Mädel
After the Nazi Gleichschaltung in Germany in 1933, the Bund Deutscher Mädel (frequently used in its abbreviated form, BDM) ("League of German Girls") was the all-German party organization for girls between 14 and 18 years of age, as the girls' segment of the Hitler Youth. All other girls' organizations were either absorbed into it or prohibited. The BDM used campfire romanticism, summer camps, folklorism and other suitable means to vigorously indoctrinate girls in the tenets of the Nazi regime, including its traditionalist views of the role of girls and women in family and society.
