Seriously, I had major reservations about including Lavrentiy Beria in a story as a demon functionary of the government of Hell, and you think I'd bust out Mengele? Even in a context where the heroes give him the what-for, OWaW is just not that kind of setting.

I strongly suspect that Karlsland isn't Germany specifically to explain why you never see any of those names or faces in Strike Witches.

Besides - if we were thinking of the peril-of-mad-science thing, there are more genre-appropriate casting choices.
