## Bio

Born 17 October 1892, Theodor Eicke entered the SS and took command of Dachau in June 1933, imposing the brutal regimen that would become standard across the camp network. In June 1934, he and his adjutant Michael Lippert executed SA Chief Ernst Röhm during the Night of the Long Knives purge. Promoted to Concentration Camps Inspector in July 1934, Eicke expanded the system and codified its methods. In 1939 he shifted to military command, leading the SS Division Totenkopf through the invasions of the West and the Eastern Front. His plane was shot down over Kharkov on 26 February 1943.
