Berlin to probe Nazi ties to post-war government – Investigators will seek to uncover recruitment policies and ‘the mentality of the political culture’ of West Germany after 1945 | The Times of Israel

The German government said Saturday it will launch an investigation into possible historic Nazi influence on the country’s post-war central government, including the chancellor’s office.
The probe at a cost of four million euros ($4.2 million) will run until 2020, and will complement some 20 such inquiries already made at numerous ministries and institutions to determine the reach of alleged Nazi networks following World War II.
