By that time they had hundreds of thousands of their ilk in brown shirted uniforms, a much lesser number wore black. By December 1941 when Germany declared war on the USA, after the US declared war on Japan, they'd pretty much run out of happy volunteers and were drafting those Germans unfortunate enough to be born in 1923. By this time, Germany was being bled white in the USSR and if you could fog a glass you got a rifle.
