Summary of Christa Schroeder's He Was My Chief

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 In 1926, Hitler had centralized the SA men of all NSDAP districts under Franz Pfeffer von Salomon. In 1930, he had to give in to the pressure of the trouble-makers and sacrificed Pfeffer von Salomon. He appointed himself the Supreme SA-Fhrer in his place.#2 I was assigned to the Nazi economics office, the WPA, in 1931. I did not like the mysterious partner Dr. Otto Wagener had on his trips and discussions, Adolf Hitler. He was a singular visionary genius, and his colleagues saw in him a dangerous genius that could not be faulted with logic.#3 Martin Bormann was one of Hitler's most devoted and loyal vassals. He was always willing to force through ruthlessly and sometimes brutally the orders and directives given him by Hitler.#4 At OSAF, Martin Bormann headed the SA personal injury insurance plan designed by Dr. Wagener, later known as the NSDAP Hilfskasse. All SA men were covered by it. Bormann was not corrupt, and he came down hard on all corruption he discovered.
