No one considered him a hero
Answer
During World War II, Wittmann was considered a hero by Germans, but not by the Allies. This is because he was a member of the Waffen-SS, which was a Nazi organization. The Allies considered the Waffen-SS to be a criminal organization, and therefore did not consider its members to be heroes.
