Reference handwaving
[edit]Not sure but the missing refs may be in that link in the bibliography, which has 243 documents in it. That's a little vague to put it mildly, and they would all be primary sources anyway.
Bad sourcing
[edit]"== History==
The BDJ was founded on 23 June 1950 in Frankfurt/Main. The founder and main theorist and later chairman of the BDJ was Paul Lüth.[1][dead link] The CIA-cryptonym for the BDJ was KMPRUDE[2] and for the Technischer Dienst LCPROWL.[3][dead link] The project outline in a declassified CIA file states the following objectives:[4][dead link]
- The utilization of the League during the October 15 elections in Eastern Germany
- Consolidating the League as a permanent nationwide organization
- Employing the League in political warfare operations
- Guerrilla warfare and sabotage training of selected segments of the Leagues membership.
In April 1951 the Technischer Dienst (technical service), a secret subsection of the BDJ, was founded on the programmatic basis of the partisan writings by Paul Lüth with the aim in mind, to form an armed resistance movement against "Bolshevism".[1][dead link] The operation ran under the name LCPROWL BDJ Apparat.[2] As of 1951 the budget for one year was $125.000.[3][dead link]
The group was allegedly founded as part of the CIAs program of creating guerrilla and stay-behind groups in Germany and Western Europe that would fight the Soviets should they occupy Western Europe during a future confrontation. The CIA was training them in covert guerrilla warfare to be part of this future resistance movement. Many members of the BDJ were veterans of the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS.[5][6][7][failed verification][failed verification][failed verification]"
