The polite and soft mannered officer who questions Bucky at the camp is based on Hanns Scharff, a German officer in charge of interrogating POW's at the Dulag Luft III transit camp. Scharff was ordered to use torture if necessary, but used sympathy and kindness instead. Speaking fluent English, he would create a rapport with the prisoner by studying the case beforehand and pretending to know everything about him and his mission. As depicted, Scharff spoke about hobbies and family, offered food, cigarettes and news about the man's companions or the advance of the war, while casually mentioning that the methods of the Gestapo were far nastier. After the war, Scharff testified against Nazi leaders at the Nurember Trials and later emigrated to New York, where he was invited by the Pentagon to give lectures on interrogation techniques, many of which are still used by the FBI and CIA.
