The title[edit]

The titel is wrong, the correct translation is Hitler boy Quex, because the members of the Hitler Jugend (Hitker youth) call ( Hitler Junge ) Hitler Junge.

I see your point, but the custom is to use the most frequent translation in use. Movie titles are not always translated precisely. And, in English "a youth" can be an individual as well. I will create Hitler boy Quex as a redirect, however. Tfine80 15:35, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

the movie contained also the first airing of the Hitler Youth anthem Vorwärts, Vorwärts--Tresckow 09:11, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I moved the page to Der Hitlerjunge Quex as it is a German book which never had an English translation. In any case, the article “Der”/“The” is part of the book's title. Steepleman (t) 09:56, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
