2 unusual facts about Herbert von Bose


Herbert von Bose

While von Bose and von Tschirschky drew up a special dossier that was to be handed over to the old von Hindenburg in late June 1934, to convince him of the necessity of mobilising the Reichswehr against the SA and NSDAP, von Papen delivered his famed address at the University of Marburg on June 17, 1934, which criticized some of the excesses of Nazi rule and called for a cessation of violence and return of the rule of laws.

In his memoirs Inside the Third Reich, Albert Speer relates how he was ordered to rebuild the Borsig Palace and transfer the Sturmabteilung (SA) leadership in and have Papen's staff out within twenty-four hours.
