Best Answer

Ernst Rohm was the leader of the Nazi SA (Brown Shirts), and Adolf Hitler's most serious rival for control of the National Socialist Party in Germany. After 1934 you don't see photos of the Brown Shirts anymore because Hitler had their leaders killed by Heinrich Himmler's SS (the Night of the Long Knives), including Ernst Rohm who was thrown into a jail cell and then shot. With their leaders dead, the 1.4 million members of the SA were absorbed into other Nazi organizations. Ernst Rohm was basically a brutal thug. He was a lowbrow and unsophisticated working-class Nazi, but I can think of two good things to say about him. One: he went to his death bravely, ripping open his brown shirt to bare his chest for the bullets. And two: although Rohm pushed Nazi-ism on Germany, I think it less probable that he would have tried to push it on Europe, as Hitler did.
