He claims to be an ex-spy for the Germans, and most of the people in Salvation probably think he is being funny. Thing is, it's true. When Jesse Custer became the sheriff of Salvation, Gunther told him the story of how he had come to America, just to be sure that Jesse knew where they stood. Gunther told Jesse about how his brother Werner, his idol in all things, had joined the Luftwaffe,where he eventually rose to be a full squadron commander. He idolized Werner, and his brother was not only a hero to him, but a hero to their entire town. Gunther resolved to join the Army when he was old enough and join his brother in the skies.
