(Sturmabteilung, Storm Troopers), also known as "Brown Shirts," the Nazi Party militia that helped Adolf Hitler rise to power in Germany. Created in 1922, the SA's supposed purpose was to guard Nazi Party meetings, but in actuality, Hitler meant for the group to serve as the Nazi army. The SA was extremely antisemitic and antidemocratic in its military activities. Its members were mainly lower-middle class Germans who had lost their jobs due to the country's economic problems. The SA gave them something to be part of and proud of. They engaged in street fights with their political enemies, practiced pseudo-military exercises, and terrorized Germany. Ernst Rohm became the Supreme Commander of the SA in 1924. Around that time, Hitler began calling for the use of legal means to take control of Germany. Rohm was not satisfied with this: he wanted the SA to be the basis of a revitalized German army that would take power by force. Hitler rejected Rohm, and in 1925, Rohm stepped down. However, Hitler invited him back to his old job in 1930 after the Nazis' electoral victory, and ordered him to rebuild the SA.

German NSDAP (Nazi) Party, Golden Party Badge. The NSDAP, Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, (National Socialist German Worker’s Party), Golden Party badge was instituted by Adolf Hitler on October 13TH 1933 to reward those NSDAP members who had served the party continuously from February 27TH 1925, and held a party membership number of 100,000, or below. The originally bestowal of the badges was on November 9TH 1933, and further regulations dictated that Hitler held the right to render the award to personnel who had provided exemplary service to the NSDAP or Greater Germany. The badge was awarded in two sizes with a small, 1″, (25mm), diameter badge for wear on civilian clothing and a larger, 1 1/4″, (30.5mm), badge for wear on political or military uniforms. The introductory regulations stated that the recipient must have continuous, unbroken service with the party and on leaving the party the badge could no longer be worn. The regulations also stipulated that on the death of the recipient the family may keep the badge as a memento. Of Note: Due to the “continuous” service clause in the award criteria, anyone who’s service time had been interrupted were ineligible for award of the badge. As a result of this criteria it is estimated that only about 24,000 badges were awarded out of the possible 100,000.
