"I could not have the honour of being a German soldier because of my imprisonment in the First World War. And in this world war the Fuehrer refuses to allow me to serve as a soldier"

In this quote, Fritz Sauckel reveals his regret and disappointment at not having the ability to serve as a German soldier due to his jail time throughout the First World War. He likewise discusses that in the present world war, the Fuehrer (Adolf Hitler) has denied him the opportunity to serve as a soldier. This might be interpreted as a sense of aggravation and longing to eliminate for his country, but being unable to do so due to circumstances beyond his control. It also highlights the stringent control and authority of the Fuehrer in deciding who can serve in the armed force. In general, the quote shows the impact of war on people and the power characteristics within a country at war.
