Das Nationalsozialistische Kraftfahrkorps (NSKK, NS-Kraftfahrkorps) war eine paramilitärische Unterorganisation der NSDAP von 1931 bis 1945. NSKK wurde 1934 zur dritten NSDAP-"Kampfgliederung" neben der SA und der SS erhoben. Es fungierte bis zu seiner Auflösung 1945 als Sammelbecken für alle politisch anpassungswilligen, motorbegeisterten und im Kraftfahrwesen beruflich oder sportlich engagierten Personen und hatte mehr als 500.000 Mitglieder. Das NSKK erhielt eine schwarz-braune Uniformierung. Nach Adolf Hühnleins Tod im Juni 1942 übernahm Erwin Kraus als „Reichsleiter NSKK“.

Die Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP) war eine in der Weimarer Republik gegründete politische Partei, deren Programm und Ideologie (der Nationalsozialismus) von radikalem Antisemitismus und Nationalismus sowie der Ablehnung von Demokratie und Marxismus bestimmt war. Ihr Parteivorsitzender war ab 1921 der spätere Reichskanzler Adolf Hitler, unter dem sie Deutschland in der Diktatur des Nationalsozialismus von 1933 bis 1945 als einzige zugelassene Partei beherrschte. Alle Organisationen waren nach dem Führerprinzip aufgebaut und orientierten sich an der Rangordnung der Wehrmacht.

The National Socialist Motor Corps (Nationalsozialistisches Kraftfahrkorps,NSKK), was a paramilitary organization of the Nazi Party in Germany from 1931 until 1945. The NSKK members trained in the operation and maintenance of automobiles, trucks and motorcycles. They soon became involved with training recruits for the German Army's armoured and motorised arms and during World War II NSKK augmented Army and Air Force transport assets. From 1944 it became a dedicated transport corps, but was disbanded with the surrender of Nazi Germany in May 1945.
The rank system and insignia of the NSSK were based closely on those of the SA (Sturmabteilung), of which the NSKK was originally a part. The NSKK members also wore similar uniforms and insignia; the uniform of a SA member was principally a brown shirt (the members were called "brownshirts", Braunhemden), a Swastika armband (Hakenkreuzarmbinde) and a kepi cap (Schaftmütze). The SA-style kepi of the NSKK had a black top and brown (khaki) sides (Steife Schaftmütze aus olivbraunem Gabardinetuch, schwarzer Mützendeckel). Special uniforms also existed for corps of the SA, such as the motorized SA, the SA Alpine troops, and the SA-Marine, considered an auxiliary of the Kriegsmarine. It was the SA-Marine that expanded its uniforms almost to a level unto themselves, with special nautical insignia which no other unit of the SA displayed.

The National Socialist German Workers' Party (German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, NSDAP) was a far-right, nationalist, antisemitic and anti-Marxist political party in Germany between 1920 and 1945. The Nazi Party command structure was divided into the general membership (Parteimitglieder), the political leadership corps (Politische Leiter), the upper command levels encompassed by the Gauleiter and Reichsleiter, and the position of Führer held by Adolf Hitler as supreme leader. Ranks of the Nazi Party were paramilitary titles. All political leaders wore official uniforms, while regular party members wore civilian clothing with a standard party badge. The uniforms, ranks and insignia of the Nazi party and its sub-organizations – Sturmabteilung (SA), SS, Gestapo, Hitler Youth, etc. – underwent several changes.

This is an attempt to see World War 2 through the eyes of people who lived or fought on the territories controlled by the Axis powers, originally the Rome–Berlin Axis. Axis' principal members in Europe were Nazi Germany, the Kingdom of Italy, Hungary, and Spain. During World War II, Nazi Germany and Axis powers occupied or controlled a number of countries in Europe and beyond. At its zenith in 1942, the Axis presided over large parts of Europe, North Africa, and East Asia, either through occupation, annexation, or puppet states. The collection is made with an image recognition aid, so a small percentage of images may be wrongly attributed as European & 1939-1945. Here is a list of some of the countries that were occupied or allied with Nazi Germany during the war: Austria: Nazi Germany annexed Austria in 1938, after the Anschluss, which was the union of Austria and Germany. Czechoslovakia: Nazi Germany occupied the western and southern regions of Czechoslovakia in 1938, after the Munich Agreement. The rest of the country was occupied in 1939, after the invasion of Poland. Denmark: Nazi Germany occupied Denmark in 1940, after the invasion of Norway.

Greece: Nazi Germany invaded and occupied Greece in 1941, after the fall of Crete. Italy: Italy was an ally of Nazi Germany during World War II, but was also occupied by German forces after the fall of Mussolini in 1943. Netherlands: Nazi Germany occupied the Netherlands in 1940, after the invasion of Belgium. Norway: Nazi Germany invaded and occupied Norway in 1940. Poland: Nazi Germany invaded and occupied Poland in 1939, at the start of World War II. Belgium: Nazi Germany occupied Belgium in 1940, after the invasion of the Netherlands.

Hugo Boss is a German fashion and lifestyle company that was founded in 1923-1924 by Hugo Ferdinand Boss. Today, Hugo Boss is known for its high-quality, stylish clothing and accessories, and has more than 1,000 stores worldwide. During the 1930s and 1940s, the company produced clothing for the Nazi Party and the German military. In particular, the company was known for producing the black uniforms worn by the SS, the Nazi Party's paramilitary organization. After the end of World War II, the company faced controversy for its involvement with the Nazi regime. In the post-war years, the company's founder, Hugo Boss, was arrested and briefly imprisoned for his role in the production of Nazi uniforms. After World War II, it shifted its focus to producing men's suits and eventually expanded into other areas of fashion, such as women's wear and perfume. In the decades since the war, Hugo Boss has faced ongoing criticism and controversy for its involvement with the Nazi Party. The company has apologized for its actions during the war and has sought to distance itself from its past associations with the Nazi regime. In recent years, the company has supported a number of initiatives aimed at promoting tolerance and understanding, including the sponsorship of the United Nations' International Day of Tolerance. Despite these efforts, the company's history with the Nazi Party continues to be a source of controversy and criticism.
