This is the story of Fred Kort, a spurious "Holocaust Survivor". The British did not have to invent Bond: they could've hired Mr. Kort! Check out his bizzare story in the video "James Bond meet Fred Kort" which is featured in this news item.
JAMES BOND MEET FRED KORT(FIRST DRAFT, and most likely the final).
Script:
Hello and welcome to Holocaust History News! Today we have decided to scrutinize Fred Kort, a "Holocaust" survivor.
"Kort hid in a tool shed as camp officials massacred 550 prisoners. After 10 hours in hiding, Kort escaped into a nearby forest, where he lived off of berries and roots for three weeks. He eventually joined the underground, made it to the Russian front, and fought with the Polish army."
Does his story amaze you? But wait, there's more. At one point:
"he found a bag in a forest clearing. The sack's contents: sausages, a bathing suit, a shaving kit and a loaded gun."
His story goes from Tarzan eating roots and berries, to James Bond.
When he got back home he became the Founder, president and chairman of the Los Angeles-based Imperial Toy Corp, which has become known for it's splendid bubble-blowing kits and makeup kits for girls.
Fred also spent time testifying against the Germans at Nuremberg and similar show trial tribunals.
