“I never thought Hitler was such a bad chap,” said George’s brother, the former King Edward VIII, who became the Duke of Windsor after abdicating in 1936. Edward made this remark in 1970 when it was widely known that Hitler and the Nazis had directly and indirectly killed more than 40 million civilians and soldiers.
The Nazis planned to install the Duke as leader after a successful conquest of Britain. The former head of British naval intelligence said Hitler “would soon be in this country, but that there was no reason to worry about it because he would bring the Duke of Windsor over as king.”
Back on track it's "hockey sweater" not jersey. Jersey is a cow or something synthetic from New Jersey.

This insidious encroachment of American terms into the Canadian language, especially when it refers to something so important to both of Canada's national sports, must stop.
But I can see you all rolling over with the sweater ads as easily as we gave up our name for our sweater.
