Voigt was born in 1966 and came to the USA the year after starting school, where he lived for over 10 years in Alabama, Wyoming, Florida, and South Carolina. He played baseball, basketball, and high school football. Back in Germany in the summer of 1984, he had to relearn the language and find his career. His first jobs were at the Stuttgart Army Airfield as an armed security guard and as a plant security officer for IBM in Böblingen (Hulb) as well as managing two rock bands led by his friend, singer, songwriter and keyboarder Ralph Gunther Küchle. During this time, he took his first personal protection courses.

His desire to study was interrupted when it became clear that he would have to complete his compulsory military service with the Bundeswehr. He decided to apply for a four-year enlistment (with prospect of extension) and was accepted in early 1988. He served as a long-range reconnaissance officer (LRRP) in Weingarten (International Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol School and Fernspähkompanie 200), completed survival training in Weingarten as well as individual combat and parachute training courses at the Airborne and Air Transport School in Altenstadt (LL/LTS), and was later transferred to the Fallschirmjäger in Nagold (Fallschirmjägerbataillon 253), where he was assigned to teach long-range reconnaissance tactics. He was also deployed to France, Norway, USA as well as Italy as an interpreter and later commanded to the military police in Esslingen (Feldjägerbataillon 750) for several months. Even at this point, the first problems with the Military Counterintelligence Service (MAD) arose due to his political views, which he vehemently defended despite pressure from higher authorities.

KfD

At the end of 1991, he resigned from his service and moved to a extremely well-paid personal and plant security position at Daimler-Benz AG in Stuttgart-Vaihingen. He had previously founded the KfD with four others and was immediately elected chairman. Initial battles against drug gangs and foreign clans caused a media and police stir in Stuttgart. State Security (Staatsschutz) deployed an undercover agent, and Voigt was accused of breaking the law, but these allegations were never proven. However, street fights led to a charge of assault. It was also alleged in court that he had mistreated the exposed undercover agent and put him on a train to Marseille, where comrades were supposed to infiltrate him into the French Foreign Legion. A preposterous tale far from reality, but it was enough in court to sentence him to several years in the fall of 1993 and, what was likely the main goal: to undermine and destroy the KfD (and it also provides the basis for his novels Der Nationale Doppelroman). While in prison, he continued his recently begun university studies (economics, philosophy, and political science) and was able to complete five semesters despite the harsh and deprived prison routine. In the summer of 1997, the political prisoner was released on probation.

DHK

Now it was time to start all over again, and that’s what he did in Berlin. On 17 May 1999, he was appointed honorary member (Ehrenmitglied) of the Hamburg based German Conservatives Association (Die Deutschen Konservativen), which has been vehemently committed to the preservation of Western civilization and its traditions since 1986, by the former mayor of Berlin and Honorary President Heinrich Jodokus Lummer (1932–2019) and Managing Director Joachim Siegerist (1947–2023).

After about two years as a member of the "German Gentlemen Regulars' Table" (Deutschherren-Stammtisch) in the capital of Germany (originally founded in the Café Germania in Berlin-Lichtenberg), again it was a group of five patriots from this Stammtisch that founded the "German Gentlemen's Club" (Deutschherrenklub) on 5 July 2000, which was to be led by a triumvirate (Voigt, Manuel Ochsenreiter and Andreas Hühn) with Voigt as triumvir and chairman.

The Deutschherrenklub is a non-partisan, independent, exclusive, pan-Germanic association of national apologists whose self-imposed political mission requires no further explanation. We are committed to the transcendental idea of the eternal state of Germanness, for Germanness is our Reich. We are conservative in the sense of preservation, innovative in the sense of modern action, and liberal in the sense of the unlimited spirit, without the weakness of uncritical nihilism.[1]

Family

Voigt is the son of engineer and entrepreneur Jürgen Voigt (b. 21 November 1944) from Henningsdorf (Province of Brandenburg) and his first wife (∞ 1966; o¦o 1972) Dorothea Luise Ottilie, née Walker (1948–2014) from Maubach near Backnang (Württemberg, Allied-occupied Germany). Shortly before the Battle of Berlin, father Jürgen Voigt, like thousands of other German children (Kinderlandverschickung), was relocated to Württemberg where he would spend the rest of his life. Andreas J. Voigt has three younger siblings: Gunther (ᛉ/ᛣ 30 October 1968), Kerstin Dorothea (1969–2018) and half-brother James Lee "Jamie". His paternal grandparents, who originated from Prussia (Province of Pomerania and Upper Silesia), were Otto Ernst Erich Voigt, musician, pilot and Oberfeldwebel of the Luftwaffe in WWII and soprano Ottilie "Otti" Hedwig Anna, née Mann. His maternal grandparents, who originated from Bavaria (mainly from Freising and Upper Franconia), were Polizeioberrat Alfred Walker, officer of the Wehrmacht in WWII, later police officer and finally chief of the Leonberg Police Station, and his wife Dorothea Wilhelmine, née von Hofstetter.

Children

Voigt is a father and has four children with his former long-term partner (Easter 2008 to October 2023):

Quotes (excerpt)

  • "Humility is the ornament of the superior!"
  • "Even the shadows of the past are inevitably a product of the light."
  • "We are all a product of our experiences and live on the shadow of our memories!"
  • "You can gaze boldly and proudly into the abyss, but you don't have to jump in!"
  • "The greatest evil in recorded human history is the disgusting, murderous anti-Germanism of the 20th century!"
  • "The truth is not what we say or what people say about us. The truth lies in our behavior, because character is action."
  • "Deep in my soul is a warming darkness, whose completeness resembles the impenetrable incomprehensibility of infinity!"
  • "Knowledge, as is well known, means pain, and dreaming certainly means disappointment – ​​but I would rather suffer full of enlightenment and hope than endure the hellish torments of an ignorant cynic!"
  • "The dark Germany (Dunkeldeutschland) of the left-wing extremists and foreign infiltration apostles must be fought in order to defend, protect, and lead the bright, shining, patriotic Germany back into a future of national renaissance and Reich glory with the motto 'We are the people!'"
  • "Facebook and similar social media platforms are a welcome gift from the adversary for Germany's nationalist forces – but the Trojan horse, as we know, was also a gift, and the outcome of this ruse is accordingly famous. I see Facebook as a free truckload of 'radio transceivers' that allows our comrades to network freely and internationally – this communication and information opportunity is invaluable ... but anyone who believes that the adversary is providing these resources selflessly is sorely mistaken, because 'the enemy is listening in' and gains excellent insights without any significant intelligence effort ... a risky symbiosis in which it is not yet clear who will ultimately be the real beneficiary."
