They called it medicine. It was systematic addiction on an industrial scale.

In this explosive exposé, historian Callum S. Lamb unveils one of World War II's most disturbing secrets: Nazi Germany's systematic distribution of methamphetamine to millions of soldiers and civilians. From the gleaming laboratories of Temmler-Werke to the frozen battlefields of the Eastern Front, "Blitzed" reveals how an entire nation became dependent on pharmaceutical enhancement.

Drawing from declassified Wehrmacht medical records, captured corporate documents, and previously suppressed Allied intelligence files, Lamb exposes how Hitler's personal physician transformed the Führer into a drug-dependent leader making catastrophic decisions under chemical influence. Meanwhile, German housewives consumed "mother's little helpers," students popped pills to study longer, and factory workers relied on stimulants to meet impossible quotas.

The Wehrmacht's early victories weren't just tactical genius-they were fueled by 35 million Pervitin tablets distributed during the French campaign alone. German soldiers fought for days without sleep, their artificial courage masking the systematic addiction that would ultimately contribute to military collapse.

But the most shocking revelation isn't what happened-it's what came after. Allied forces discovered the evidence, then systematically suppressed it for seventy years. Corporate executives escaped prosecution. Medical professionals buried their complicity. And the lessons that could have prevented future pharmaceutical abuse were deliberately erased from history.

From Nuremberg's courtroom silence to Cold War cover-ups, from academic oversight to collective German amnesia, "Blitzed" exposes how institutional denial protected reputations while burying truth. This meticulously researched investigation reveals how a nation's chemistry experiment in human enhancement became history's most successful cover-up-and why these lessons remain dangerously relevant today.

The truth about drugs in the Third Reich will shock you. The conspiracy to hide it will terrify you.
