Ernst Rohm Signed Document Pre Beer Hall Putsch 1923
Document signed by Ernst Rohm concerning a Leutnant (Lieutenant) Albert Beyschlag and the Bayerisches Wehrkreiskommando VII (Bavarian Military District Command VII).Header:Bayerisches Wehrkreiskommando VII München, den 5. Juni 1923 empf. 2.5.23 IIa Nr. 2677Main text:Dem Wehrkreiskommando wurde kein Gesuch des Leutnants Albert Beyschlag um Einstellung in das 19. (Bayer.) Inf. Rgt. vorgelegt, daher zum Akt: Offiziere I Band 25. Wieder­vorlage am: J.A.Translation:The Military District Command received no application from Lieutenant Albert Beyschlag for appointment to the 19th (Bavarian) Infantry Regiment. Therefore, file in: Officers I, Volume 25. To be reviewed again on: J.A.Handwritten text at the top is faint but seems to read something like “Wenn es nicht bereits erfolgt ist…” (“If it has not already been done…”)This looks like an internal administrative note confirming that no official request had yet been submitted by Lt. Beyschlag and that the file should be archived accordingly.The backside appears to be a follow-up or supplementary note about the same matter, written in cursive.Transcription (approximate, due to handwriting):Lt. Beyschlag Albert aus Ingolstadt – Inf.-Rgt. hat ein Gesuch um Einstellung im 7. Rgt. 19 an Hptm. Röhm eingereicht, bittet Herrn Hptm. Röhm um Unterstützung. Wird geprüft. Nach Möglichkeit meinerseits über den Hptm. [Hans] Röhm an Insp. d. [Truppen?] (Hptm. [Epp?] / [Grübel?]) das B. weiterer Eröffnung. gez. Pater München, 5.6.23Translation:Lt. Albert Beyschlag from Ingolstadt – Infantry Regiment – has submitted an application for employment in the 7th/19th Regiment to Captain Röhm, and requests Captain Röhm’s support. To be reviewed. If possible, through Captain Röhm to the Inspector of Troops (Captain [Epp? or Grübel?]) for further consideration. Signed, Pater Munich, 5 June 1923& #55358;& #56809; Historical ContextDate: June 1923 — the period of major instability in Bavaria and the buildup of nationalist paramilitary formations.Figures Mentioned:Captain Röhm almost certainly refers to Ernst Röhm, the later SA leader and early Nazi paramilitary organizer who was indeed active in the Bavarian military administration at this time.Lieutenant Albert Beyschlag was evidently a former officer (from Ingolstadt) seeking reappointment to the Reichswehr or possibly the Bayerische Einwohnerwehr structures that persisted semi-officially.The correspondence shows military bureaucracy in early Weimar Bavaria, particularly the interactions between official military commands and informal nationalist officers seeking reinstatement.
