Hermann Göring as SA Commanding in Chief in the 1920s.
He is wearing a Stahlhelm (steel helmet), trench coat and Pour le Mérite, the Kingdom of Prussia's highest military order until the end of World War I.
Göring was the earliest leader of the SA (Storm Troops) and took part in the failed Munich Putsch, receiving serious wounds at the Feldherrenhalle, when the army troops opened fire on the Nazi marchers in 1929. Even though this march was literally a defeat for the SA, Göring and Goebbels turned the incident into a “Victory for the Party” through the skillful use of propaganda.
