Сколько в России улиц имени Ярослава Гашека?
The main character Švejk of the antimilitarist, satirical novel "The Good Soldier Švejk" by the Czech author Jaroslav Hašek is the most famous portrayal of a batman drafted into the Austro-Hungarian Army during the First World War. (The 1967 German song ""Ich war der Putzer vom Kaiser"" is actually based on the British instrumental hit "I Was Kaiser Bill's Batman" of the same year, with original German lyrics.)
