Best Answer

The Nazi Schutzstaffel (otherwise known as the "SS") were originally commissioned to serve as bodyguards for Hitler, once he was elected as Chancellor of Germany. They took on a more significant role once Hitler's territory was expanded, by means of several branches dedicated to different tasks within the Reich (for instance, the Waffen-SS utilized secret police-type operations within occupied nations).

Note: The phrase "Schutzstaffel" literally translates as protection force or defense corps. The motto of the SS was Meine Ehre heißt Treue (My honor is loyalty).
