Live and act

After attending primary school, Edmund Brauner learned the carpentry trade . From April 1, 1916, he worked for the Austrian State Railways . In 1917/18 he took part in the First World War with the Austro-Hungarian army .

In the early 1930s Brauner joined the Austrian Nazi movement. In April 1931 he became a member of the NSDAP ( membership number 117.743) and in early June 1931 the SA. From 1930 to 1932 he was a local group leader, then until 1934 district propaganda leader, then until 1935 district leader and finally until 1938 as a gau propaganda leader of the NSDAP. After Austria was annexed to the German Reich in the spring of 1938, he took on full-time posts as district leader of the NSDAP in Eisenstadt and as a division manager. In addition, from 1941 he was a Gauredner , commissioned by the Reich Propaganda Management . As a member of the SA he reached the rank of SA-Sturmbannführer in Stockerau (Niederdonau) in 1943 .

In March 1943, Brauner was appointed a member of the Reichstag in place of the MP Eduard Honisch , who had left the Reichstag because of his expulsion from the party in connection with a corruption affair. He then belonged to the National Socialist Reichstag pro forma until the end of the Nazi regime in spring 1945: Since the Reichstag did not meet at a single session in the almost two years that it was a member of parliament, Brauner's membership remained a purely nominal act.
