HIAG was a lobby group and a denialist veterans’ organization founded by former high-ranking Waffen-SS personnel in West Germany in 1951. Its main objective was to achieve legal, economic and historical rehabilitation of the Waffen-SS. To achieve these aims, the organization used contacts with political parties, and employed multi-prong historical negationism and propaganda efforts, including periodicals, books and public speeches. Always in touch with its members’ Nazi past, HIAG was a subject of significant controversy, both in West Germany and abroad. The organization drifted into open right-wing extremism in its later history; it disbanded in 1992 at the federal level, but local groups, along with the organization’s monthly periodical, continue to exist into the 21st century.
