Marinebrigade Ehrhardt
Manfred Freiherr von Killinger (14 July 1886 – 2 September 1944) was a German naval officer, "Freikorps" leader, military writer and Nazi politician. A veteran of World War I and member of the "Marinebrigade Ehrhardt" during the German Revolution, he took part in the military intervention against the Bavarian Soviet Republic. After the "Freikorps" was disbanded, the antisemitic Killinger was active in the "Germanenorden" and "Organisation Consul", masterminding the murder of Matthias Erzberger. He was subsequently a National Socialist German Workers Party representative in the Reichstag and a leader of the "Sturmabteilung", before serving as Saxony's Minister-President and playing a part in implementing Nazi policies at a local level.
