ハインリヒ・ブリューニング
Schleicher became a major figure behind the scenes in the presidential cabinet government of Heinrich Brüning between 1930 and 1932, serving as an aide to "General" Groener, the Minister of Defense. Eventually, Schleicher, who established a close relationship with "Reichspräsident" ("Reich President") Paul von Hindenburg, came into conflict with Brüning and Groener and his intrigues were largely responsible for their fall in May 1932.
