Gertruda Burkhalter, the sister of Lieutenant General Albus Burkhalter, was the tough German woman. Her husband, Otto, was MIA for 2 years from the time frame that Hogan's Heroes was set. Often times, she would be set up with Oberst (Colonel) Wilhelm Klink to be married. Luckily he was never married to her as she had a keen sense of German Authoritarianism, which made her seem "tough". Because her brother was a General in the Third Reich, she demanded respect from troopers within her brother's jurisdiction.
