The "Otto" Quiz

We'll this is my official 5,000th post, so I thought I'd try and make it a bit interesting.

I've come up with a series of 20 questions for all you Rogues out there to answer. Most are WWII related, with a few general knowledge questions thrown in for good measure. Before you start, I'll give you a hint that will make much more sense once you get through a few questions: this Otto Quiz is both much easier, and much harder than you first think upon reading it. I'll post the results when the time is right.

There is only one rule, you can answer only one question. that means it will take 20 different Rogues to complete this Quiz!
