The ''Kampfbund'' ("Battle-league") was a league of patriotic fighting societies and the German National Socialist party in Bavaria, Germany, in the 1920s. It included Adolf Hitler's Nazi Party (NSDAP) and its ''Sturmabteilung'' (SA), the Oberland League and the ''Bund Reichskriegsflagge''. Hitler was its political leader,〔Proposed by Ernst Röhm; see ''Der Fuehrer'' by Konrad Heiden, trans. Ralph Manheim, Houghton Mifflin Co., Boston, 1944, p. 175.〕 while Hermann Kriebel led its militia. The league was created on 30 September 1923 at Nuremberg, where Hitler joined other nationalist leaders to celebrate German Day, which marked the anniversary of the Prussian victory over France in 1870. The purpose was to consolidate and streamline their agendas and also prepare to take advantage of the split between Bavaria and the central government. The impetus of this consolidation was the ending of the clandestine Ruhr war by the Berlin central government which infuriated the freebooters and nationalists. The ''Kampfbund'' conducted the Beer Hall Putsch of November 1923 in Munich, Germany. ==Member affiliations== By this time, the German Workers' Party (DAP) had changed its name to the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP). It had grown from a fringe sect to Bavaria's most powerful political force of 70,000 members. By 1923, the SA was the Nazi Party's private army with about 15,000 members. A subgroup of the NSDAP was the ''Stosstrupp'', a bodyguard unit for Hitler under the command of Joseph Berchtold. Another group was the Party's youth group ''Jungsturm'' led by Adolf Lenk. The Oberland League was a paramilitary organization led by Friedrich Weber. It had 4,000 armed troops, practically all disgruntled war veterans. This unit was a ''Freikorps'' unit. The ''Bund Reichskriegsflagge'' (Imperial War Flag Society) was another private army which had many war veterans, as well. The official leader was Joseph Seydel but Ernst Röhm was really in control. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kampfbund」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
