| that the Bund Oberland on 8
November [9 November] 1923 took part in the so-called Hitler Putsch. You stated
that the Bund Oberland was an association — a so-called Nationalistic
association of which many members were college students. Did that organization
Oberland at a later time ever become incorporated in the NSDAP? Did that
nationalistic organization ever become a National Socialist unit by way of
incorporation? DEFENDANT VON AMMON: No. After the Bund Oberland had participated in the Hitler Putsch on 9 November, it was dissolved. I believe that at some time later on it came back to life, but I personally no longer took any part in it. As far as I know, it never in any way was incorporated in the National Socialist movement. Q. How far did you participate in the events of the night of 9 November 1923? A. The company of the Bund Oberland to which I had been assigned was alerted, on the evening of 8 November 1923. I was not alerted because my name was not on the alert list. I had joined the Bund Oberland only a little before that time. Therefore, I was only told about it on the morning of the 9th. I then joined my company which was stationed in an inn by the Isar, at Bogenhausen, in Munich. There I spent a few hours with the company; then we marched off to the East. There we disbanded and returned to Munich one by one. That was my participation in the event of 9 November. PRESIDING JUDGE BRAND: May I ask you — were you armed? Were you armed at that time? DEFENDANT VON AMMON: Yes, I had a gun. |
