[note: German American Bund, or the German American Federation - was a German-American Nazi organization which was established in 1936 as a successor to the Friends of New Germany (FoNG, FDND in German), the organization chose its new name in order to emphasize its American credentials after the press accused it of being unpatriotic (citation from Erik V.
