Funny Thing Happened on the Way to London - S3-E5
Revealing mistake: When the staff car enters the camp, you see a set of tire tracks leading up to, and stopping at, Klink's position. When the car comes in, it precisely follows the tracks, suggesting previous takes.
Revealing mistake: After the cell door blows, you can see the fuse of the stick of "dynamite" Newkirk placed still burning on the ground. Since the dynamite would blow when the fuse is burnt up, that literally can't happen. (00:22:40)
An Evening of Generals - S3-E13
Revealing mistake: The silver rack with bowls starts moving a second before the rocking explosion.
Everybody Loves a Snowman - S3-E14
Revealing mistake: As the sink with the fake tunnel is prepared, just before Newkirk goes over to set things up, you can see movement through a crack in the door. It's Schultz, Hochstetter, and Klink, waiting their cue to enter.
Everybody Loves a Snowman - S3-E14
Revealing mistake: When Hochstetter goes to open the snowman, you can see the plug is a poorly disguised piece of wood, as well as the piece of metal around the opening in the snowman.
Is There a Doctor in the House? - S3-E18
Revealing mistake: As Carter blows into the bottom of the oven, the suds that hit Newkirk in the face come out in a thin stream on top, not out of the whole stovepipe.
Sticky Wicket Newkirk - S3-E20
Revealing mistake: When Hochstetter goes to open the window in Klink's office after the explosion rocks the camp, look at the background. You can see the studio lighting shining on the matte painting of the camp yard.
Answer: Nimrod's actual identity was never revealed in the series. It was only known that he was a British intelligence agent. Nimrod was not Colonel Klink. Hogan had only implied it was him as a ruse to get Klink returned as camp commandant, not wanting him replaced by someone more competent who would impede the Heroes war activities. The term "nimrod" is also slang for a nerdy, doofus type of person, though it's unclear why that was his code name.

"Nimrod" is originally a king and hero mentioned in the Tanach and taken into the Bible and the Koran. His name is often used in the sense of "stalker," "hunter," and sometimes figuratively as "womanizer" as in "hunter of women." I've never seen it used to denote a nerdy person, and although I cannot disprove that connotation, I think given his role, the traditional meaning is more likely the intended one.
