The Schutzstaffel is the largest paramilitary Germanic organization. The Schutzstaffel was formed on April 4th, 1925. It remains a rather small organization, growing over time. In January of 1929, Adolf Hitler appoints Heinrich Himmler as Reichsführer of the Schutzstaffel. In 1933, when the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP for short), rose to power, Hitler ordered creation of concentration camps for political prisoners. Over time, these camps would also be used for Jews and others. Many SS officers were the masterminds behind these camps and killings.
