Göring was the last commander of Jagdgeschwader, “The Big Jast 1”, the fighter wing once led by Manfred von Richtofen. An early member of the Nazi Party, Göring was among those wounded in the failed but fun Beer Hall Putsch in 1923. While receiving treatment for his injuries, he developed an addiction to morphine which persisted until the last year of his life.
