The American journalist H. R.

Indeed, unless a Storm Troop officer were homosexual, he had no chance of advancement."[1] (page 34).
Moral decline in Germany and the attendant homosexuality it spawned occurred about 35 years before the Nazis took power and paved the way for the Nazis to take power. The Nazis were rabid Darwinists who insisted that the German master race dominate other so-called inferior races. Darwinism has been linked to a decline of morality.[2]
Later when Adolf Hitler came into power he chose to persecute homosexuals in order to advance his notions of racial struggle .[3] Yet at the same time, Hitler retained sexual deviants in position of power within the Nazi leadership. For example, Hermann Goering was known to dress in drag, paint his nails and put rouge on his cheeks. Another example is the case of Max Bielas who "had a harem of little Jewish boys. He liked them young, no older than seventeen. He had a kind of parody of the shepherds of Arcadia, their role was to take care of the camp flock of geese. They were dressed like little princes...Bielas had a little barracks built for them that looked like a doll's house...Bielas sought in Treblinka only the satisfaction of his homosexual instincts (Steiner:117f)."[4]
