: Besides the obvious, like the flying wing... the aforementioned Panzerfaust, the Volkswagen Kubelwagen in LC, the German M43 field cap (1943, and the whole uniform), Germans in Egypt (British) before 1941, German U-boat bases in the Med, and whatever the passenger Zeppelin was in LC. I'm sure I missed tons, nevertheless it was fun to see Indy with all that stuff, he seems to encounter the latest in German technology before the rest of the world even knows about it.

: About the whip... Zorro had one in the early 1800's : )

Zeppelins were around in the 1930s--the Hindenburg blew up in 1937. But if you mean that THAT particular Zeppelin is fictional in 1938 because it couldn't have been the Hindenburg, okay sure. Those submachineguns in Raiders weren't around either I belive. But the worst anachronism has to be the Golden Gate Bridge in Raiders (not completed until 1937).
