We all know about the foreign units, my question is, were non German nationals allowed to join the party?

John I was passed this Info by a nice young lady it may intrest you
One "Ausländer" being a member of the NSDAP was Francis Paul Maton, a member of the BFC. There is a picture of him wearing the party badge on his coat in Adrian Weale´s "Renegades".
Furthermore Hitler had "Parteiabzeichen der NSDAP für Ausländer" produced, which were handed out to prominent foreigners sympathising with the party.
