Less than one month after Hitler's ascension to power in January 1933, Hermann Göring, at the time Prussian Minister of the Interior, ordered the creation of a special police unit which "in complete devotion to the Führer, would be capable and willing to stamp out any spark of resistance before it could become a threat to the young National Socialist movement". On 23 February 1933, the formation of this unit was entrusted to Polizeimajor Wecke of the Prussian Police Force (during the early 1930s, police battalions were organised to protect and support Nazi leaders on political tours and during engagements). Two days later, Major Wecke reported that his police detachment for special purposes, with a strength of 14 officers and 400 men, had been established. On 17 July the detachment was officially retitled Landespolizeigruppe (Land Police Group) Wecke z.b.V., becoming the first landespolizeigruppe in Germany. It was awarded a special land police standard by Göring on 13 September 1933, who stated: "It is my objective to transform the Prussian Police Force into a sharp-edged weapon, equal to the Reichswehr, which I can deliver to the Führer when the day comes for us to fight our external enemies." On 22 December 1933, the unit was again retitled, becoming the Landespolizei General Göring. Oberstleutnant Friedrich Jakoby, Göring's ministerial adjutant, assumed command of the unit on 6 June 1933.
The personnel of the Landespolizei General Göring initially served in a police capacity, but in March-April 1935 Göring reconstituted his Landespolizei General Göring to become the first fledgling airborne regiment. It was incorporated into the new German Luftwaffe on 1 October of the same year, and training commenced at Altengrabow. The landespolizeigruppe banner was retained as the official regimental banner, and a new General Göring sleeveband was established to wear on the lower right sleeve.
Hitler introduced general conscription on 16 March 1935, and on 1 April the Landespolizei General Göring adopted the more military designation of Regiment General Göring.
