Lieutenant Ike Horwitz, U.S. Army, was Major Irving Morrell's aide-de-camp in Kamloops, British Columbia during the period of 1926-1933 when Morrell was on occupation duty in Canada. In the late 1920s, Horwitz received German Lieutenant Colonel Heinz Guderian and his orderly, a sergeant who did not give his name. Horwitz did not like the orderly, who was quite snide about Horwitz' Jewish heritage. Privately, Horwitz told Morrell that the man reminded him of Confederate politician Jake Featherston.
