What is the significance of the well-known slogan The Reichswehr does not shoot at the Reichswehr or the phrase that the Reichswehr of the Weimar Republic was a state within a state? For the founder of the Hundred Thousand Man Army, Colonel General Hans von Seeckt, it was intended as an instrument for preserving the Weimar Republic, which was under constant threat from both within and without. This collection of sources provides insight into his views on the basis of documents, most of which are being published here for the first time.
