   A year before, when the Russo-German Pact was signed, we had the task of   
   converting to a completely reverse opinion those whom we had originally   
   made into fanatical opponents of Russia—a manœuvre that must have   
   appeared to be a rare old muddle to the older National Socialists.   
   Fortunately, the spirit of Party solidarity held firm, and our sudden   
   about-turn was accepted by all without misgiving. Then, on 22nd JUNE   
   1941 [WITH OPERATION BARBAROSSA AS THE INVASION OF THE SOVIET UNION WAS   
   NAMED AFTER THE ALL-CONQUERING MEDIEVAL HOLY ROMAN EMPEROR FREDERICK I   
   (reigned: 1155 – 10 JUNE 1190)], again: "About turn!" Out shot the order   
   one fine morning without the slightest warning! Success in an operation   
   of this nature can only be achieved if you possess the press and know   
   how to make tactical use of it.

   (G5312): {UMBRA: #1970 % #41 = #2} 1) to lift up on high, to exalt; 2)   
   metaph.; 2a) *TO* *RAISE* *TO* *THE* *VERY* *SUMMIT* *OF* *OPULENCE*   
   *AND* *PROSPERITY*; 2b) to exalt, to raise to dignity, honour and happiness;   
      
   When you regard the role of the press from this angle, you will realise   
   at once that the profession of the journalist now is very different from   
   that of the journalist of yore. There was, indeed, a time when the   
   profession of journalism was one without any real importance, for rarely   
   had the individual journalist any opportunity to give proof of personal   
   character. To-day, the journalist knows that he is no mere scribbler,   
   but a man with the *SACRED* *MISSION* of defending the *HIGHEST*   
   *INTERESTS* of the State. This evolution has been in progress throughout   
   the years following our taking power, and to-day the journalist is   
   conscious of his responsibilities, and his profession appears to him in   
   a new light.

   *ORDERS*, lay charge, give charge to, order; 1a) (Piel); 1a1) to lay

   #1246 - FEME CHECKSUM TOTAL: #274 as [#30, #1, #50, #9, #1, #50, #5,   
   #300, #800] = lanthán   
    (G2990): {UMBRA: #941 % #41 = #39} 1) to be   
   hidden, to be hidden from one, *SECRETLY*, *UNAWARES*, *WITHOUT* *KNOWING*;   
      
   Viewed in this way, the role of the press must be guided by certain   
   principles, which must be rigorously applied. For example, when there   
   are problems, over which men of eminence are scratching their heads   
   without being able to find the solution, it is unwise in the extreme to   
   air them in public ; much better wait till the thing is settled. Before   
   a *MILITARY* *OPERATION*, no one would dream of communicating the   
   *ORDERS* to the *TROOPS*, so that the rank and file could discuss them   
   among themselves and express their opinion of the best way of carrying   
   out the operation. To act in such a manner would be tantamount to a   
   surrender of all sense of responsibility, all sense of authority, and a   
   negation of all reason. In the same way, when a choice between two   
   models of tanks is under consideration, it is not the rank and file who   
   are asked to decide which shall be put into production." [pages 479-481]   
      
   REDUCTIO AD HITLERUM AS IDEA #20 ON 17 SEPTEMBER 1941: "THE ATTACK   
   AGAINST RUSSIA—THE GERMAN SOLDIER IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD: I suppose   
   that those of them who could see what happens in Russia have now been   
   cured. But at the moment of our attack, we were entering upon a totally   
   unknown world— and there were many people amongst us who might have   
   reflected that we had, after all, a pact of friendship with the Russians!   
      
   The German soldier has again proved that he is the best soldier in the   
   world. He was that in the time of FREDERICK THE GREAT (reigned 1740-86),   
   and he has always been that. When it's a question of holding on, that's   
   when he reveals his full effectiveness. On every level, every man does   
   exactly what is expected of him. After the campaign in the West, people   
   were still saying that the soldier of to-day hadn't the endurance of the   
   infantryman of the first World War. Here, on the Eastern front, he has   
   proved that he has this endurance." [pages 31, 32]
