From what I understand is that the guy who played Klink was Jewish.. Talk about ironies..

[henkster]

Lebeau (Robert Clary) was also Jewish; actually was a Holocaust survivor. His expressed hatred of the Nazis on the show was not just acting.

The guy who played the FRee FRench POW, (can't remember his name, was a survivor of the Holocaust.

Most of the crew was Jewish ... Sgt. Shultz was an Austrian Jew, the French guy in Hogan’s crew was Jewish and was in a Nazi concentration camp - Col. Klink ( Klemperer) was Jewish and his father a famous conductor - Werner Klemperer ....

Werner Klemperer. His father was a symphony conductor who fled when Hitler started tightening the screws. If I recall correctly “Col. Klink” served in the U.S Army in WW II.

LeBeau, in real life, survived a concentration camp. Buchenwald. See Robert Clary if you don’t believe me. Klink ‘s Werner Kemperer had one Jewish parent, I believe.

Werner Klemperer played 'Colonel Wilhelm Klink'. Strongly anti-Nazi, he served in the United States Army during World War II, from 1942 to 1945.

Klemperer was very conscious of the fact that he was playing a German officer under the command of Nazis, and agreed to play Klink only on the condition that he would be portrayed as a fool that never succeeded.

Klink and John Banner (Schultz) were both Jewish. Banner even played a commandant at a death camp in a Marlon Brando movie I can’t remember the name of.
