[colonel hogan]

Actually both men did exist ive read the first hand account of the guy who killed him. It was nothing like the film ending. He said that the german guy was the headmaster of the sniper school in germany. They knew he was coming. Two of his mate were shot one was killed and the other wounded. So he knew this german was good cus his mates were so good. what happend was they would stake out an area for days and see if anything had changed. He noticed a pile for rubble and a sheet of corrigated iron on top of it. He scanned the area and noticed he was under it. He could see his helmet outline and he fired and the rest is history.
