Can't say. I dunno what level of understanding you have. I have
more than can be learned from Hogan's Heroes. Too bad about
Bob Crane, huh? You know, Werner Kemplerer (Col. Klink) was
a german Jew and spent time in a concentration camp

(Sgt. Schultz) was an austrian jew and also spent time
in a concentration camp? http://www.nndb.com/people/181/000032085/

Sorry I wasn't more help.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
