It was funny my old korps-bruder being such an important man. But he didn't forget me! "He was a brave and good soldier. I remember him well. He was a small man just about my own age. My own mustache -it's like...
...meet a charge of having run off with the funds of the party, such as they were. Before one dismisses too lightly the chance of resurrection, one should cast a glance at the humble beginnings of the Nazi party, which all Germany thought squelched after the ridiculous beer-hall putsch, when a peculiar loon named Hitler jumped on a table, fired three shots into the ceiling, and proclaimed the Revolution, whose end came a few moments later with the arrival of government troops.
