Ulrich Graf (6 July 1878 – 3 March 1950) was an early member of the Nazi Party and one of Adolf Hitler's inner circle.

He was a long serving member of the Munich City Council and the Supreme Party Court and in 1936 was elected to the Reichstag.

These storm troopers, outfitted in brown uniforms, were initially charged with the duty of keeping order at Nazi Party meetings.

When the column of SA troops approached the blocking detachment of police, Graf, stepped forward and shouted "Don't shoot.

The firing lasted for only sixty seconds, but in that time 15 putschists, four police officers, and a bystander lay dead.

His Blutorden (Blood Order) medal was sold by a British collector in 2019 for £36,000, nine times the estimate at Hansons, Derbyshire, to an overseas buyer.
