Meeting of the Leaders of the Party
6 October 1943.
The Chief of Staff of the SA, Schepmann, spoke about the world philosophical mission of the Si(, reported on its work and gave a general view of their performances in the war. This war is not only being conducted by the Front, but also by the homeland. The mission of the SA is the leadership of men in the broadest and deepest sense of the word. The best weapons are purposeless, if the man does not know, that he bears them for German freedom and for the future of the German Nation. The Chief of Staff called attention to the great sacrifice of blood which the SA and its leadership are bearing in this war. The SA is inculcated with belief and harsh fighting determination. The blessing of this warlike attitude will accrue to the National Socialist Party and to the German people.
