Where will this end?

Schultz was a Luftwaffe NCO, Klink and Burkhalter Luftwaffe officers. None wore armbands. The only regular character on the show that routinely wore a Nazi armband was Hockstetter (sic) who portrayed a Gestapo officer. Just sayin’...

You do have to wonder about whoever came up with Hogan's Heroes. "I know - let's do a show about those zany Nazis!"

The one character who comes to mind for wearing the red armband is Major Hochstetter. I think he was Gestapo.

The show was based on the movie Stalag 17

There was a lot of nazi stuff in comics. Look into the golden age of comics. Sometime around 1954 they stopped. That’s when they came out with the comics code.

Been a long time, but I saw it. I'm more reminded of The Producers:

Think about trying to make that movie today,

In fact, a good movie might be The Making of The Producers - 2019

By all means, let's do away with college education. Nothing good has every come from that anyway, right. While we're at it, let's do away with all public education as well because the last thing this country needs are people capable of independent thought and reasoning. On to the book burnings and the institution of a state religion, public executions of all felons and anyone critical of our Gov't, and let's do away with elections and all that other waste of time stuff, too.

Really???????? A little dramatic, aren't we? Being able to criticize the state of an institution is quite valid and isn't the same thing as advocating its elimination. I have a college degree and successfully saw all three of my children through their graduations, so I'm not anti-college. But there is no question the environment on campuses is much different than it once was, and the change is neither for the better or one that encourages expansion of students' minds, which I thought was part of the value of higher education. All I remember when I was at school was a scattering of potheads carrying "No Nukes" signs. At my daughter's school (Monmouth U.) there was a recent movement to re-name Woodrow Wilson Hall because he was apparently a racist. At my son's former school (Stockton U.) a bust of Richard Stockton was removed because he was a slaveholder. Apparently a small statue was offensive but not the Stockton name on every letterhead or other document, on sides of vehicles or the very name of the school itself. Then there is the too-common protests and shout-downs of speakers on campus, at graduations or other events. I'm not referring to the protesting of what they are saying but their very right to say it at all. At institutions that were once bastions of freedom of speech, freedom from speech is now the norm. How does any of this prepare our youth for the real world they are about to enter?

Totally Agree

We all did stupid things in college (not talking rape and serious crimes) and to be judged 40 years later by today's politically correct social pussies is just an injustice. I'll wager there isn't a person protesting against these people who hasn't done something in their life they regretted. We lived and learned.

Time to bring down Disney World. That place made a living off the back of a minority mouse and dwarfs. Also teaching boys it's ok to kiss ladies while they sleep.

I've wondered about the relationship between Snow White & the seven dwarfs

[chuck]

Situation with Snow White and dwarfs was covered by Rick Moranis in Ghost Busters 2 when he is providing commentary while reading the Fairy Tale to Oscar including the tax advantages of barter versus a salary and rental agreement.

It gets worse. There's this Prince that goes around in the woods kissing dead women......

That's a talented lady. She kept 7 guys whistling while they worked. A real dominatrix that Rufus should be proud of.

................and she got them all to go down.......into the mines...........whistling. Hi ho!

Now, altogether, that is some curious and imaginative musings right there. Yup. You guys are a trip! Totally refreshing and enjoyable. And the part about The Prince being peculiar because of his Necrophilia moment in the woods, puckering-up to kiss a corpse; well, as a boy, back in the 50's, I always had second-thoughts about him but could never give it voice. Now, you dudes have made it clear why he would have been somebody to keep at a distance. Wow.

Allow me to encourage you, further.
P.S. Hey, if I actually wandered parts of Manhattan, back in the very early 70's, wearing that dumbhat (see avatar pic) and reading Carl Sandburg in Washington Square, I understand the motivation and inspiration in such a romp as this one (!)

P.P.S. I gave the hat away, after wearing it for only a few days, to a lady who fancied it after one of my reads in front of the Holley monument in the Square.
