| abstract | - Pfeffer von Salomon was a Freikorps member and veteran from World War I. He gained his reputation by organizing resistance groups to stop the French occupation of the Ruhr. He was Gauleiter to Upper Bavaria; Heinrich Himmler was once his secretary. Adolf Hitler made Pfeffer commander of the SA after he swore unconditional loyalty to Hitler following the Bamberg Conference in 1926. Pfeffer was fired in 1930 following the disagreements he had with Hitler about the role of the SA, and because he failed to stop fellow SA leader Walter Stennes from briefly occupying the Nazi Party's office in Berlin. After Pfeffer's dismissal, Hitler assumed personal Supreme Command of the SA. Thereafter, Ernst Röhm was summoned by Hitler to return to Germany from South America and to run the SA as its Chief of Staff, since Hitler had no interest in running the SA itself.
