Thought it was interesting that aristocratic Von Klugerman wanted to use the commoner Stachel as a national figure to rally the little people from falling into the grip of the Communists that looked like they may take over the country.

Aristocratic Germany would push the commoner Hitler into office fifteen years later to rally the country to keep it away from Communism.

He wasn't trying to push Stachel into political office. He just wanted to publicize him as a military hero to boost morale.

The point I was tryin to make is that both Stachel and Hitler, of the lower class, were bein used by the elitist upper class to save their hides from a possible Communist take over.

That was my point.

Ok. I agree that Stachel was being used.

Disorientated war veterans in a number of countries did gravitate to fascist movements of the 1920s.
