The American Nazi Party (ANP) was an American neo-Nazi political party founded by George Lincoln Rockwell and headquartered in Arlington, Virginia.[A] The organization was originally named the World Union of Free Enterprise National Socialists (WUFENS), later renamed the American Nazi Party. It was renamed the National Socialist White People's Party (NSWPP) in 1967. Rockwell was murdered by John Patler later that year.
Following Rockwell's murder, the organization appointed Rockwell's second in command, Deputy Commander Matt Koehl as the new leader. The American Nazi Party, now under Koehl's command, was subject to ideological disagreements between members in the 1970s and 1980s. Koehl renamed the group the New Order in 1983, which came with a shift in the organization towards esoteric neo-Nazism. After Koehl's death in 2014, a long-time member and officer of the New Order, Martin Kerr assumed leadership.
