About this person

Gerhard Roßbach, also spelled Rossbach, was a German Freikorps leader and nationalist political activist during the interwar period. Born in Kehrberg, Pomerania, he gained prominence for his involvement in various right-wing paramilitary groups following World War I and in particular for his close association with Ernst Röhm, who served as an important intermediary in the early 1920s between those right-wing paramilitary organizations and upper echelons of the Reichswehr. Rossbach is generally credited with inventing the brown uniforms of the Nazi Party after supplying surplus tropical khaki shirts to early troops of the Sturmabteilung (SA).
