To the day I die, certain things will remain at the front of my consciousness and, not only that, but in my deepest subconscious as well. Just so that there may never be any question, I want to spell them out here and now:
Just as Adolf Hitler was and is the greatest personality in all of history, so he has had arid will always have, by far, the largest meaning and impact in my life, in my every thought. So great is Hitler that the more words one tries to devote to him, the less real justice one does him. While I have always been an atheist, Hitler, to me, is larger than life– an immortal if there ever was one. To HELL with any who think differently! He is my life's inspiration and shall always remain so.
George Lincoln Rockwell, the bridge over which so many, including myself, have crossed. My greatest source of education, though we never met. The greatest example of courage and devotion, resourcefulness and even humor that I can imagine. We were lost when we lost him. The man who provided the single, best shot at it since the end of the Second World War. No one had ever come close to what he did. And he did it all using the Swastika! They can evade and they can contravene but they can't deny it. He made his success because he too saw it– the struggle– as "all is one" and proceeded, unhesitatingly, to give it his ALL.
In Joseph Tommasi I see represented a number of things. All of the martyred comrades I can see in Tommasi. The young, especially, from the rank-and-file. In him I can still see the hope for the future arising out of the ashes and the dust of the former Movement for which he served as a soldier. He represents the clearness of mind and hardness of spirit to not only abandon the past for lost but to attack the present as the only means for achieving a future. And that future is entirely in the hands of those National Socialists serious enough to be called revolutionists.
That all three were National Socialists is not the one thing they had in common which is most important to be aware of for we who hold their memory in cherished reverence. Today it is most urgent to see and recognize that all three men met their undoings and their end through direct betrayal, and, in the latter two cases, murder at the hands of those close around them. This seems to be the traditional and predictable fate for those who openly, consciously strive for greatness- who willingly give all of themselves in the name of others. But never will I be convinced that this is the way it HAS to be!
Into this same segment I feel I must include, by way of shining example of the way men CAN work together for a greater CAUSE, not only The Order but the various affiliations that were present together at Greensboro. Both were of heroic magnitude but, as if to point the direction which things must assume, Greensboro, being the precedent by many years, took on the qualities of a defensive masterpiece while The Order, with no question at all, was an OFFENSIVE masterpiece. Both are a tribute to each of the men I have named above and vice versa.
