It's a bit false to describe dueling scars as a NAZI thing since they predate them by over a century.

This is incredibly disingenuous, this tradition predates the Nazis. In fact, Mensur scars where prohibited by the Nazis. This is who they give pulitzers to huh

everyone fought everyone else my dad was european champion for Germany for duelling and has a schmisse , im not sure you know that all other european countries also did the same its called Academic Fencing.

The biological scientists who clustered at Merck are of particular interest.

Why Do Stanford, Harvard and NASA Still Honor a Nazi Past?

I got a few double-take glances from passersby but it was a good beach read for me this summer

Super interesting.. Also, what a vibrant photo. Sometimes you need reminded that history was in color.

This isn’t correct. Duelling was seen as an upper class pursuit in the 19th century Germany. The scars were seen as a badge of honour, a sign of courage and membership of the aristocracy.

@Petrus24550953 Nonsense. The somewhat peculiar tradition of Mensur duels predates the Nazis. (Mark Twain had quite a lot to say about it.)
