'''Ernst Julius Günther Röhm''' (November 28<sup>th</sup>, 1887 – July 1<sup>st</sup>, 1934) was a German military officer and an early member of the [[Nazi Party]]. As one of the members of its predecessor, the [[German Workers' Party]], he was a close friend and early ally of [[Adolf Hitler]] and a co-founder of the ''[[Sturmabteilung]]'' (SA, "Storm Battalion"), the Nazi Party's militia, and later was its commander. By 1934, the German Army feared the SA's influence and Hitler had come to see Röhm as a potential rival, so he was executed during the [[Night of the Long Knives]], also known as the "Röhm Purge". | '''Ernst Julius Günther Röhm''' (November 28<sup>th</sup>, 1887 – July 1<sup>st</sup>, 1934) was a German military officer and an early member of the [[Nazi Party]].
