Adolf Hitler was very secretive about many things and would tell one part to one member and later would tell a second part to another member, or he wouldn't say anything to another, thus leading to much confusion and lack of coordination on the day of the putsch.
Hitler with other leaders in the Kampfbund searched out the triumvirs, the leaders of the conservative-nationalist-monarchist groups to convince them to march upon Berlin and seize power.
Units of the Kampfbund were scurrying around to arm themselves from secret caches, seizing buildings.
He further sent the communications officer of the Kampfbund, Max Neunzert, to enlist the aid of Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria to mediate between von Kahr and the putschists.
Kampfbund is (A person of German nationality) German for "Battle League".
It was created on 30 September 1923 at (A city in southeastern Germany; site of Allied trials of Nazi war criminals (1945-46)) Nuremberg, where Adolf Hitler joined other patriotic nationalist leaders to celebrate German Day which marked the anniversary of the (A German inhabitant of Prussia) Prussian victory over France in 1870.

His primary concern was the independence of the Reichswehr, the regular army, and he feared that a rightist putsch could create a civil war that would ultimately harm the army.
By the end of October the idea of a march on Berlin was beginning to appear less feasible, and on November 6 Kahr cautioned Hitler and the Kampfbund against any hasty military action.
On November 8 a rally was to be held in one of Munich's large beer cellars, the Buergerbraeukeller, to honor Kahr.
For administrative purposes the Kampfbund leadership created elaborate subdivisions, including sections for serious and for light music, for opera, for instrumental and vocal music, for composition, and, not least, for music education.
After January 1933 the Kampfbund's ambition to be the sole regulator of music in the Third Reich became stronger, fueled by Rosenberg's own sense of mission as the party's official philosopher and warden of all things cultural.
And so, as a consequence of the Kampfbund's shaky beginnings and lack of authority, centralization, and coordination, Rosenberg eventually was surpassed by stronger contenders for cultural control, the most persistent of whom turned out to be Goebbels.
During the long years in which I planned the formation of a new Reich I gave much thought to the tasks which would await us in the cultural cleansing of the people's life: there was to be a cultural renaissance as well as political and economic reform.
I was convinced that people which have been trodden underfoot by the whole world of their day have all the greater duty consciously to asset their own value before their oppressors, and there is no prouder proof of the highest rights of a people to its own life than immortal cultural achievements.
With Hitler thus setting the tone, the Kampfbund fur Deutsche Kultur accepted Gleichschaltung, the coordination of all cultural activities in the Third Reich to meet the standards set by its Fuehrer.
One of the Kampfbund's prime targets was the divisional head of the Ministry of Education, Leo Kestenberg.
He warned him that Hindemith himself was being condemned as "cultural bolshevist" by the Mainz branch of Rosenberg's Kampfbund für deutscher Kultur.
The right wing of the Kampfbund für deutsche Kultur had complained of Jewish-Marxist control of cultural institutions, education, and the press since the late nineteen twenties.
At this time, the German Socialist Workers Party, (not yet known by the acronym NAZI), grew from a fringe sect to Bavaria's most powerful political force of 70,000 members.

He further sent the communications officer of the Kampfbund,
At the same time he worked in secret as a top official of the group called Neu Beginnen (New Beginning).
Sozialistische Arbeiterpartei (SAP, Socialist Workers' Party), Kommunistische Partei / Opposition (KPO, Communist Party Opposition), the group Neu Beginnen (NB), and the Internationale Sozialistische Kampfbund (ISK, International Socialist League) were the most important leftist groupings between the SPD (Social Democratic Party) and the KPD (Communist Party).
The role they played in the resistance movement and in exile was considerable and in no way in proportion to their numbers involved in the workers' movement, and their illegal organizations existed considerably longer than the "mass resistance" of the KPD and SPD.
I'm personally very cautious of any of the "early" design pins which are RZM marked, they may have continued in production once the mark came in but I'm not overly convinced IMHO.
I like the KfdK (Kampfbund füf deutsche Kultur) pin, I can't see anything wrong with it myself.
I think the above comments are right - the RZM'ed badges are fakes (M1/129 is almost always fake, and these early badges were before the RZM came in).

Further, as socialists, all these correspondents were sufficiently ‘politically detached’ not to be under any kind of moral and political pressure to justify the ‘Third Reich’.
le Sozialistische Kampfbund’ (ISK), founded by the ethical socialist Leonard Nelson in 1926 and continued by Willi Eichler, took up local reporting as early as the summer of 1945.
Without exception, all letters and reports incorporated in this edition were written by ISK-members.

The SA was established in November, 1921 and would act as Hitler's personal army in his seizure of power.

This is one of the better compilations I have ever heard.
Featured artists are: Ex.order, Slogun, Thorofon, Valefor, Robert X. Patriot, Con-Dom, Macronympha, T.G.V.T, Wertham, ASP, The Grey Wolves, Der Kampfbund and Operation Cleansweep.
With the exeption of Valefor and R.X. Patriot the compilation is perfect - pure powerelectronics and industrial strength all based on terrorism.
In 1927, Alfred Rosenberg himself had been one of the founders of the Kampfbund für Deutsche Kultur.
The Kampfbund went straight for the association of non-realistic art with physical and mental disease, and it was the Kampfbund which started showing Expressionist representations of the human body alongside photographed deformities.
Anyway, the battle between Kunst der Nation and the Kampfbund over what was to be the official style broke out in earnest when Nolde applied to join the Kampfbund and û to his own bewilderment û was refused.
Only by uniting with other fascist groupings was there any possibility of affecting the situation.
In 1923 Hitler had joined forces with a number of anti-republican nationalist groupings and Freikorps units in Bavaria, which together formed the Deutscher Kampfbund (German Fighting Union), with Hitler as one of its three leaders.
They were inspired by Mussolini's victory and dreamed of imitating his march on Rome.
