John Banner (born Johann Banner; 28 January 1910 28 January 1973) was an American film and television actor. He is best known for his role as a World War II German soldier, the comedic Sergeant Hans Schultz on the television situation comedy Hogan''s Heroes (1965 1971). Schultz was constantly encountering evidence that the inmates of his Stalag (prisoner-of-war camp) were planning mayhem, and he was aware that he would be better off if he pretended ignorance thus his constant catch phrase "I know nothing! Nothing!" Nothing!" One episode of Hogan''s Heroes is titled "At Last: Schultz Knows Something".
