The Man Who Tricked Hitler - Fake Knight's Cross Hero

In February 1945 a 16-year-old Hitler Youth named Gunter Nowak became a national hero after destroying single-handed almost a dozen Soviet tanks. Hitler awarded him the Knight's Cross - the only problem was, Nowak didn't exist. Hitler was duped, but by whom?

From George Orwell's "1984": "Suddenly there sprang into his mind, ready made as it were, the image of a certain Comrade Ogilvy, who had recently died in battle, in heroic circumstances. There were occasions when Big Brother devoted his Order for the Day to commemorating some humble, rank-and-file Party member whose life and death he held up as an example worthy to be followed. To-day he should commemorate Comrade Ogilvy. It was true that there was no such person as Comrade Ogilvy, but a few lines of print and a couple of faked photographs would soon bring him into existence..." "Comrade Ogilvy, who had never existed in the present, now existed in the past, and when once the act of forgery was forgotten, he would exist just as authentically, and upon the same evidence, as Charlemagne or Julius Caesar." Now we're left to wonder how many other heroes might never have existed.

hi there mark. can you do a episode on a natural foliage camouflage use, footage like in 1:57 is rare to see now days and when people think of German camouflage they normally think of the manufactured clothing version. the germans had practice of stuffing smaller branches into their helmet bands, wiring and even field made nets. it was a common practice to use foliage on their tanks and conceal their position when parked up by using surrounding vegetation including barn hay. theres many period photos of this and it would make for a great educational video. thanks! thumbs up the idea

Dr. Felton sir, I have a unusual story you might look into, if possible. In 2008, I was at my fathers wake service when I met and talked to his best friend, Mr.Ed Fry. He told me his uncle,(I don't know his name,sorry). was in the German army group north going to Leningrad. However, because he was in a reserve unit, he kept being sent south until in 1942, he was with Army Group South trying to capture Stalingrad. We all know that didn't happen and he was one of the fortunate few to get out of there. After Kursk, it was nothing but retreat from that point on. He ended up in Hungary and surrendered there. The point of this story is he was in the Infantry and he walked this extreme distance on ONE PAIR OF BOOTS! The soles of the boots were paper thin and he wasn't issued another pair. That was a LONG WALK!. I don't know if you can make a video of this, but I would definitely appreciate it. Thank you.

You might also look into the British Royal Marine helicopter pilot and his crew chief that developed nightsun for use in Northern Ireland. This technology has saved thousands of lives around the globe. Most helicopters use and have it. Thank You, SH

The way Mark pronounces Panzerknacker makes it sound like Panzerkanake :P

I can truly say if Mark hadn't made these videos I would never have know all these stories in my life . Truly Impeccable Info.

A remarkable piece of history is revealed by remarkable research. Thank you Mark!

Lol! Got to love the balls on the guy coming up with a complete load of bull that saved his neck.

These Feltonian history nuggets just keep on coming - and never disappoint. It would be interesting if MF would do a video on how he does his researches and how he gets his material (if that can be done without giving away the secret of his successful writing career). I'm pretty sure Dr Felton must have an adequate command of the German language - which must help - but at times it also appears that he has ready access to military, press and government archives not just in Germany but in Britain and the US, too. How is it done?
