On February 19, 1942, a surprise invasion by stormtroopers in gray uniforms and coal-scuttle helmets seized control of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.


German light armor vehicles roll into a shocked Winnipeg.



Nazis seize unauthorized papers from a Winnipeg newsdealer (from Wikipedia).


City officials are rounded up by German troops.

Here's a video on this freakish historic event.

The occupation authorities took over control of the Winnipeg Evening Tribune, and printed a heavily-censored replacement that toed the Nazi Party line:


Sample Nazi article as printed in the Winnipeg Evening Tribune.

Yes, it was all just a publicity stunt to sell war bonds. But it was quite nicely carried out, and it sold those bonds.

Winnipeg was nothing. At the end of WWII the Nazis, having an advanced rocket program, traveled to the dark side of the moon and set up a Nazi Moon Base.

It was also depicted during a few episodes of (I think it was) Star Trek Enterprise.

Yeah, but they took no videos of it, so it didn't matter. (I've heard conspiracy buffs say that Iron Sky was actually faked later, on a sound stage, like the Apollo missions)

You mean the original series? I recall one Nazi episode from that.

No, Enterprise is the last (prequel to the original Star Trek series).

Captain Archer time-travels back to the 1944 to find an alien species altered the timeline so that Nazi Germany invaded America. Several eastern American states are under Nazi-control.

Ah! I'd missed Enterprise entirely, somehow.
