Guy Stern, professor of German at Wayne State, is mentioned in a story regarding the documentary film \"The Ritchie Boys\" and the growing momentum towards its Oscar nomination. The film is about a group of German-speaking Jews who fled Europe for America before World War II, received intelligence training at a secluded Army post in the Blue Ridge Mountains and went back overseas as interrogators and psychological warfare experts. Stern, one of the film's subjects, attended the event, signed autographs and marveled at the prospect that his war story might be Oscar worthy. "I would really be cheered by it," he said.
