The "Hitler Youth" was founded in Munich in 1922 as the Jungsturm Adolf Hitler, soon renamed the Hitler-Jugend (Hitler Youth). The groups was divided into age segments something like Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts, and membership was mandatory for all German boys from age 10 on.

It was disbanded by the Allies in 1945, but no charges were brought against any H-J member, as they were all underage. Several adults in prominent position in the H-J were detained by the

Allies, however, and their original "leader" Baldur von Shirach was tried and convicted in Nuremberg (though on other charges).
