NBC's Dawna Friesen traveled to Norway for an In Depth history lesson about the infamous Aryan-purity childrearing scheme known as Lebensborn, or Fountain of Life, organized by master race minded Nazis during Germany's World War II occupation. Interestingly, Friesen did not concentrate on the German role in procreating 12,000 blond babies "prized for their Viking roots" but, instead, on the Norwegian role in raising the children after the war. Or rather their failure to do so. Lebensborn children "became social outcasts" abandoned as orphans and imprisoned in insane asylums. They were "abused, often at the hands of doctors, nurses, even teachers." Now sixtysomethings, the Lebensborns are demanding an apology and compensation from the government of Norway.
