Today -100: October 23, 1924: Of generals and bungholes

Gen. Erich Ludendorff, who was acquitted earlier this year for his role in the Beer Hall Putsch, will run for the Reichstag, I assume representing Bavaria. Some of his admirers wanted him not to run because he belongs to the nation, not to any party (in this case a coalition party of far-right nationalists including Nazis who can’t run under the Nazi name) (which I’d like to point again isn’t a name the Nazis used).

Headline of the Day -100:
