Gernot Herrmann

Brigadeführer Gernot Herrmann is a minor antagonist and enemy in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus.
== Biography ==
=== Before 1961 ===
He was the original commander of the Ausmerzer, in 1951, during the 'Liberation war'. He was also responsible for crushing the attempted uprising in Washington, D.C. in 1953. In 1955, during the siege of Silver Creek, he managed to capture twenty six terrorists, as well as kill thirteen.
==== Assassination ====
Herrmann had become one of the Übercommanders', influential high-ranking officers under the command of General Irene Engel. Sometime in July-August 1961 he led a garrison protecting the site of an abandoned bunker in the Riverside area of Manhattan. He had few Atom Elites soldiers under his command in this post, with the guard forces within the bunker being composed primarily of Super Soldiers, robotic infantry and Laserhunden. Unlike other officers of his rank he was accompanied by a Zerstörer unit during this posting.
Given the lack of power in the bunker and presence of corpses of soldiers in the hallways and the entrance, it is implied that Herrmann's location had been attacked by the rebels. Strangely, he for some reason does not seem to acknowledge the attack in the bunker by Blazkowicz on his men, as he is not there to call for reinforcement until the very end.
