Fritz Christen badly wounded and alone, held the line against hundreds of soviet troops and a formidable tank presence for three days, killing over 100 soviet solders and knocking out 13 enemy tanks.
Hans Ulrich-Rudel. Destroyed hundreds of Soviet tanks, planes, vehicles, four armoured trains, 150 artillery pieces, a destroyer and the Soviet battle ship Marat. He did this with his Ju-87 armed with anti-tank guns. He also ran 6 kilometers, swam a frozen river, escaped capture while being chased by soviet infantry with dogs.

>Gave a Polar Bear to the Sultan of Syria.
>Told the over-zealous Pope to get fucked, Kings ruled their own countries and were not vassals of the Church.
