You mean Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda minister.

Goering was the Luftwaffe commander.

100 years from now listing Mike Meyer’s “Pentavirate” as part of the Hitler government will raise no eyebrows.

Next time you run into someone who thinks he knows history, throw this at ‘em:

Edward the Confessor was

(a) William the Conqueror’s priest.
(b) The Duke of Normandy’s cousin.
(c) Author of the Magna Carta.
(d) None of the above.

Bonus points if they know which two people mentioned above...weren’t two people at all.

History education is lamentably rare.
