Eighty-eight is used as code among
Neo-Nazis to identify each other.
[ 2 ] H is the 8th letter of the alphabet, so
88 is taken to stand for
HH which in turn means
Heil Hitler .
[ 3 ] For example, the number is used in the song "88 rock'n'roll band" by the neo-Nazi group
Landser . The late convicted
Order terrorist
David Lane wrote "
Fourteen Words " and
88 Precepts , and the numbers are often found in combination (1488, 14/88, etc.). This form of the number has inspired the naming of the groups
Column 88 ,
Unit 88 , White Legion 88 and Barselc88.
