''Inspekteur'' was an early Nazi political rank created in 1930 due to the Nazi Party expanding across Germany in hopes of securing a major election victory. The political position of ''Inspekteur'' was the first concentrated effort to organize the Nazi Party on a national basis, where as before the Nazis had mainly operated from Munich, in Bavaria, with various splinter Nazi groups in other parts of Germany. The rank of ''Inspekteur'' was divided into two levels: ''Landesinspekteur'' and ''Reichsinspekteur''. The ''Landes'' level was concentrated on Nazi organization within specific German states, while the ''Reich'' level coordinated Nazi activities across the entire country. The position of ''Inspekteur'' was denoted on Nazi Party brown shirts by either one of two collar bars worn on a dark red collar patch. The shoulder boards were also paired up with a one or two knotted gold shoulder cord. A special title also existed for the senior most ''Reichsinspekteur'', this being ''Reichsorganisationsleiter'' (National Organizational Leader). There was no special insignia for this supreme political position, as it was merely a command title for the head Reich Inspector. Robert Ley was one such holder of this title. After the Nazis came to power in 1933, the political rank of Inspekteur became obsolete as the position had mainly served the purpose of election coordination. The duties of the ''Landesinspekteur'' were absorbed into the position of ''Gauleiter'' and the rank of ''Reichsinspekteur'' was renamed as ''Reichsleiter''. ==Source== * Clark, J. (2007).
