Hans Ulrich Leiter was born in a small village near Saarbrucken in western Germany, the eldest son of tavern keeper Gustav Leiter and his wife, Maria. A good student and natural leader, young Hans enjoyed a happy childhood despite the economic depression and political upheaval in his homeland during the 1920's and '30s. Hans and his younger brother Kurt were particularly active in the scouting movement, then later in the "Westmark" Obergau of the Hitlerjugend when membership in the HJ became mandatory for all boys in 1936. Hans was nearly a man by this time, and already knew that he wanted to be a soldier -- just as his father had been during the Weltkrieg. Great changes had come to the German Army since 1935, and it was an exciting time to be a young man; as soon as he was eligible in 1939, Hans enlisted in the 34.Infanterie-Division of the Wehrmacht-Heer.
