Adolf Hitler served as a corporal at the western front, involved in several battles and was decorated with the iron cross in 1918. In October 1918 he was blinded by mustard gas and hospitalized for the last weeks until the armistice.

Hitler was outraged Germany surrendered because he believed the Germans would have won. He came to have a distorted view called the Dolchstosslegende, a saying that German leaders and Marxists had betrayed the country in accepting the peace and Versailles treaty.

His nationalist complaints made him popular and was invited to Drexler's Deusche ArbetierPartei in 1919 while still working in the army. Drexler was an anti-semite, and wanted a socialism free from Jewish influence (as it was in the communist movement). Hitler suggested a name change to Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei to attract even more people. He designed the party's logotype, a swastika in a red frame.

He left the army 1920 and started as a full-time politician for this party, that started to grow in popularity as they criticized the peace conditions of WWI, and blamed Jews for many problems in society.
