The following story is inspired by actual events. The characters are fictional but their circumstances reflect real life experiences.
It's not a political movie, it's one soldier's story.
All that remains from war are memories of, what was lost, and how soldiers faced death together. No matter what side they fought.
Victory's glory shines light upon the flaws of the defeated. It teaches the world of their faults, but leaves in darkness the wrongs of her own doing. Alessandro Pepe.
Balance and survival.
Balance. It is the essence of nature.
Survival. It tests, which exposes us to nature.
Without testing, no goals are life.
But survival depths of each soul.
As a small seed, which grows, grows, until the light.
Survival, placed at the bottom of each living being.
Nature itself is fighting everyone. the days for their survival.
Fight and continue your way.
She often shows us the incredible scenery,
which are the result of thousands of years of struggle to stay alive.
It also forces us to take difficult decisions.
Establishes rules that often we do not understand.
Love love It's the engine.
This engine pulls everything and everyone.
How nature loves the fruits of its survival,
because every creature enjoys the fruits of nature, living in accordance with its rules.
She is, the perfect balance,
To express from time to time to humanity, love in different forms.
But it was always love.
It can be different from a century to another.
But still he pushes the people for action.
Unfortunately, it is in constant mutation.
People are starting to lose the values they supposedly should never lose.
Love the next.
The love for your family's honor.
The love for honor of his native land.
It will take hundreds of years.
And they will stop loving nature.
NOTHING REMAINS THE SAME, WHEN EVERYTHING AROUND YOU IS DEAD.
My name is Ludwig Herkel. I volunteer in the 1st division,
Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler. I was 20 years old. Yesterday I was given the title of Unterscharführer.
I am now, for the first time one of their children.
What happened? I heard a sound from there.
In front of us.
Very well. What to we do?
Hold the position. Right.
Ambush! Back! Back!
I felt like an idiot, hiding myself like a rabbit, and leaving my men behind.
This will not happen again.
Come here!
What do we do now? Quiet!
They appeared suddenly. What do we do now? Shut up! They're still going to kill us.
Did not you see anyone else?
Curse! We need to get out of here!
What is the plan? Must be the quietest possible and retreat to our company.
I do not hear anything anymore. Let's go.
Where's your gun? No problem.
You go first.
It should be next. How do you feel? It's all right?
Yes.
You're Steiner, right? Yes!
Hans was my friend.
I am sorry.
He was a good comrade. You will have the opportunity to to avenge it.
You are still alive. Let's continue.
In recent months, the situation has gotten more and more difficult.
We thought that the war would end soon and that, finally, we would see a united Europe.
But it was denied one year after Operation Barbarossa, and we're still struggling against the Soviet soldiers and supporters
We try to be brave and active. I am proud to fight for this cause.
In the beautiful Westerwald the wind blows cold.
Bonita Westerwald.
In its heights the wind blows cold.
But even the smallest ray of sunshine,
it goes straight to the heart.
The new commander of the 2nd. company our division, came to the front last week.
Untersturmführer Krobel.
After the campaign in France, he was assigned to the ranks of the SS.
He said that he continuously asked to be in the front,
and that finally had the permission.
He is a great leader and a good example.
He knows when it is not necessary to take the risk.
All ready!
Let's go!
My son is going to be a good pilot too.
All to the right side!
On the right shelter!
Untersturmführer! Yes!
Take the second platoon and occupy the line of trenches!
The infantry will soon come to you. Yes right! Herkel!
On here!
Herkel, listen! We cross the road and we will keep position in the first row of trenches.
Let's go,
first of all right?
Hurry up!
Russian Airplane! We are very exposed. It is necessary to move on!
Hurry!
Listen! This is the second line. Let's move on.
At my command!
Take cover! Take cover!
Herkel! Herkel! Let's go!
Get down!
Look! Untersturmführer! The line over there!
We need to keep the line!
Do not lose it!
That's it, right! Do not lose it!
Right! No one!
Follow me!
Fire!
Cover it!
Russian tanks are coming!
Russians! Let's go!
Keep firing! Keep firing!
My dear wife. Today we had to retreat again.
My heart hurts but it's a fact that we lose a battle.
I have nothing else, my brothers. terribly unhappy, were captured.
I still believe in the final victory. We can not wait until next time. battle to avenge our comrades.
Most of them are just animals. I will not write to you about that,
but no doubt I would not let any one of them treading on German soil.
Everything will be alright.
Let's
go home,
after our victory.
Of course.
We know we will win.
After the invasion of Poland, then France,
many died, but you know how it is.
Sometimes the sacrifices are needed to bring glory to our country,
and cover our lives with glory.
I am very proud of the fact that You're here with us. You're a good commander.
The most important thing. Is that you.
You need to find the strength inside yourself.
I trust you when you take us.
And I'm going to act according to your example.
Thank you, Herkel. Get well? OK! Good evening.
My lovely wife! More summers will come soon. Many times I remember,
of our walk among the flowering trees. I really miss you, my dear.
I hope to see you soon. I can not right now.
The enemies each day become more and more. Lots of them more.
I'm starting to worry about this. That is why I am writing the letter in the your diary.
I will not give up, just as I am getting better.
You really helped me in moments. difficult times.
I hope you are proud of me, of what I'm doing.
Men, listen to me!
We have 5 minutes. The second company was in charge of check,
the old factory five kilometers from here.
Remember! We were chosen for this job!
By Leibstandarte! For our beloved Reich!
I go first with a man. You follow with the rest of us!
You! Come here!
Mg! Mg! Bring it forward!
Machine gun! Machine gun! Go there!
Meissen! On here!
Steiner, follow me! Sim!
In the window on the right! In the window on the right!
Herkel! In the window on the right!
Grenade! Throw a grenade!
Sniper!
Herkel! Take two men and eliminate immediately that crap! Yes sir!
Steiner! Walk with me!
Go with it!
Cover fire!
Forward, Forward!
Sniper! Let's go!
Steiner, come on!
Fucking Communists!
Clean! Busy position!
Steiner! Enough!
Let's go!
It's all right? Are you all right?
Good job!
Meissen, let's move forward!
I did not agree with the methods of Steiner, but we were on the same team.
I admire the courage he showed oftentimes.
Often he volunteered volunteer for the patrol troops and assault.
He does not make prisoners. His friend Otto was killed with a bayonet.
Even when he was injured. Since then, he has decided not to spare a single enemy.
None.
I never asked you, but now I know. the reason for it.
He is afraid that the enemy will reach the his brother. He does not want his brother to fight.
It's very cold in here!
Attention!
Italy A beautiful country.
I can not write much about what is going on here. The guerrilla activity is high.
In Cuneo we lost some people and we almost completely destroyed the village.
We're here for a short time. We will soon return to Ukraine.
To fight for a piece of land from few meters.
Conquer back what we lost.
Wait here!
Herkel!
Unterscharführer, I'm afraid you have bad news. The Ivans broke the line again. our defense.
We must be prepared for the worst.
The Wehrmacht suffered heavy losses and we have to cover your withdrawal.
Let's form small groups of three or four men to organize a defensive line, while the army is removed.
So do we continue to retreat?
I'm afraid so.
Come here!
Franz Joachim Scholl.
Heil Hitler!
He arrived today. Take it to your group.
Another boy.
Another soul.
Another intact.
Another corpse.
Another thought.
Another tear.
We change like pawns on a board of chess, infinity.
I still want to do everything the best. possible, even if I am only a pawn.
Scholl, what is it?
I go first. A good idea.
Good job.
Scholl, take my place in the rear!
I hate this shit.
Do you think we have a choice?
That we should cover the asses of these losers?
It is also important.
Whatever it is, continue digging. Let's stop talking.
Scholl, you have a princess look. How did you get here to the SS?
I volunteer.
I bet you asked the parents for you. complete all documents.
So funny, Steiner!
The Ivans come today?
Do not. Not today.
Most of the army fights north. There are only recognition groups.
Let's stop those damn Bolsheviks.
Thank you, Steiner.
Has Scholl ever killed anyone?
No not yet.
Calm. The time will come for this.
Which will be even worse for him, no doubt.
I hope you at least know how to dig. Well, at least that.
It's going to bug.
Herkel, this will not last a week.
Steiner, please shut up, and keep working.
We are born and we learn.
We have learned, but we can not teach.
We need an example to follow, but I do not want to be that example.
The lives of other people, all days are becoming meaningless and useless, and ours as well.
We are experimenting.
The sense of duty still lives in our hearts. We want to live, but not yet. we know.
We are like brothers. I see how they live. I want continue to live.
Now I'm fighting for it.
Rain, what a mess! A vision of a curse.
Scholl, I never asked, where is that you?
Kremmen. Where is?
North of Berlin.
I moved to Oranienshteyn, where I I enrolled in Napoli at the academy of National Policy.
Napoli? Now I understand how you got here.
My parents wanted it. I was forced.
You have family?
A wife.
What is her name?
Daisy.
She's waiting for me at home.
One more day.
Steiner, news? All still.
Go to bed. I replace it. Yes sir.
Wake up!
Steiner, I know you're tired but, go to Commander Krobel and ask for information.
It's all quiet! Yes.
The Ivans, come? Yes.
They keep coming back.
I came to volunteer, not to meditate at all times.
But is like that.
Do not forget that you are an SS.
You look like a soldier who has a reason to fight, then show it in action.
It's not just words. We are hard.
So? The order is to hold position even,
the other group is under fire. We do not leave where we are.
Yes, the commander is right. If we leave this position,
they can come in here and flank them.
Scholl, stands behind Mg.
Do you trust him with a machine gun? Yes.
Steiner, you still do not trust me?
Because you're a fucking beginner.
Enough, comrades. Steiner, calm down.
What's it? One of our mines.
Good. They're coming!
Russians! When I shoot first.
Steiner, a grenade! Grenades!
Keep firing! Keep firing!
Ammo!
They withdraw!
Here, pigs!
Stop fire! Stop fire!
You can add these more to your account.
Steiner, come here! Come on, let's see.
Unterscharführer! Here, a wounded!
Get up!
What do we do now?
The order is clear, not to take prisoners.
Scholl has found it, it is he who should kill him.
It may be easier for you,
when you have the ability to stop something.
But, you know very well, it's not worth it It's worth doing it.
Come on! Show us your dignity!
Shoot it!
Come on! Shoot it!
Are you satisfied now?
Steiner, informs the commander we shot,
on the beaters, and we detained them and that we have no casualties. Go!
By the way, do not say anything about Scholl. This was too hard for him!
Scholl.
What do you write?
In fact, to my mother.
I write but,
I do not know what to write.
Do you write to your parents?
Do not. Several months ago.
On here. 307 00:42:28,720 -> 00:42:31,188 Machete! No!
Come on! Write!
I'm sorry, but I can not write.
What is your mother's name?
Margot.
Are you alright? Yes, I'm alive.
So, are you treated well? Yes all the time.
It's hot? Too hot.
And the nights are bright enough.
And I'm glad because I have the the privilege of not suffering alone,
being with my brothers.
With love, Steiner.
The next day, they were forced to to abandon their positions and join the company.
In Napoli, we were taught to be submissive
In Napoli, what did you learn?
Hesse, Nassau, they taught us well.
Many of us continued to learn and I volunteered for the SS.
If they really want to serve, too if they can become volunteers.
I think so too, Scholl.
And you Unterscharführer? Why are you an SS?
When I was little, my father was foward,
despite the fact that it is very old fashioned,
My mother was very proud of him.
Think!
My wife feels the same.
He did not come back, and we had to leave your home.
We could not live alone with our money, due to a major crisis.
Therefore!
In addition, the place where we live, it was no longer the old Germany.
It was hard to accept.
My mother had to work all the days to buy a handful of flour to make bread.
We always eat bread.
That year for my birthday, my Mom bought me a small can of tuna.
This was the first time there were some months, when I ate something else.
A hell.
No one came to tell you what happened to my father.
I see.
When she moved, my mother did not I could find another job.
This is because at large was in the hands of the Jews.
Of course, they prefer to help theirs, other Jews, not us.
Many times we had to hide and sleep in the haystack.
However, National Socialism gave him a job.
You have become a volunteer to thank the Fuhrer?
One day my mother received a letter of Gauleiter,
in which it was written, as our homeland I was proud of what my father did it for her.
Before, he was not interested in no one.
Kocherova 1943.
Winter is coming. We were transferred to the western Ukraine.
We are often called upon to help other divisions as reinforcements.
Such spectacular scenery.
It was strange, to associate death with a Such a great place.
My dear Daisy! Everything here is covered with snow.
Still, I hold the position. I feel good about my friends.
Although it is no longer the same.
It's really cold.
I do not even know what day it is.
I hope you think of me.
Friends.
Merry Christmas! Christmas today?
Merry Christmas, Steiner! Merry Christmas, Scholl!
Merry Christmas, comrades! Merry Christmas, Herkel!
Merry Christmas, Daisy!
I'm tired of it.
We're always in the shit. We do everything,
what others do not.
Steiner!
If they need our help, we will, because tomorrow, we may need them.
So, the more, it is our duty.
If it is necessary, we will. Stop complaining. And so.
Even if you look around? What do you see?
Just snow, to cover our comrades fallen
We stand back and keep the line. Waiting to kill them all?
You just want this? With each passing day, we step back from metro to metro.
Every day we are getting closer of our homes. We will have to fight for ourselves only if we continue in the same spirit.
If we go back a meter today, we will not pluck it tomorrow. You understand?
Do you want your brother to fight, too? Do you know what they are going to do with our families?
With our women?
They destroy everything! They are also fighting for their homeland!
While I breathe, I'll do everything possible not to let these bastards enter my country. You see?
Just think about your work. You fight like a soldier, just like me. We mean nothing.
And remember, those thoughts undermine morale.
You're an SS, remember! You know you can shoot them!
Do I always have to say the same thing?
I'm sorry my friend, but the whole The way there is painful.
This shit is monstrous, but nothing helped.
Who are we? Anything.
And what are you waiting for?
Who are we in this world?
What can make a soldier like that?
We can choose something better, if life it is not, what we were promised by the our rulers?
All I do is dig,
dig and dig again.
I took an oath in my head. I believed them.
At the end of March, I went to Holland. Certainly there was only one purpose.
We are not prepared for victory. about Russia.
We are ready to defend the borders of our country.
Scholl, a little taller.
Good. On target!
I really miss my wife, but he was ashamed to go back to her.
None of us went home.
They are so worried about the war.
They do not want to spend a single day.
The situation is getting worse all the time.
The Americans landed on the Normandy.
I now, seriously begin to fear a complete debacle.
France differs greatly from the east.
Even in ruins, it seems much more fun
I get a reinforcement squad.
The recruits, most of them are children.
It was strange to command the SS division, with these recruits. Very strange.
No one was against Furher.
The captain refused any transfer. He does not want to leave.
Again was asked to near Hitler, but he refused to be transferred there.
I admire this man more than anyone.
He endured the life ahead.
Let the Allies win, it was not much good advertising, even for the sake of of Russian revenge.
We should have known more about him.
It was not the same anymore.
The Americans broke our line.
We need an immediate counterattack to stop them.
The Sturmscharführer Prunella arrived today and will take place in the second company.
I want you to fight with all your might. Like Lions!
It's time to get them to retreat!
Lions!
All people are the same.
The same result.
Are you nervous? Because of all this?
Do not worry. Everything will be alright.
Get ready! 5 minutes.
We marched in line at the same pace. You, you and you. Come with me.
Pass the word. Understood?
Again. Another battle.
Another important battle.
Will I be alive in an hour?
Sad.
Inconsolable.
I'm tired. My hands are heavy.
I am sick.
Unmotivated in the soul. Death.
Is here the moment of my death?
I need to see her one more time.
Sturmscharführer! Sturmscharführer! Go ahead!
I'm alone!
Look at me.
I do not see the soldiers. I do not see the explosions.
Take care of me!
Do not leave me!
I can not see its brilliance.
I love you.
Are you alone?
What is your name?
Did you get lost?
I think yes.
The Americans beat us, but I think that they have gone in the wrong direction.
I do not remember anything else. You have water?
I lost my canteen.
Thank you.
Which company do you belong to?
1st Division of SS.
Leibstandarte. The specials.
My name is Herkel, Unterscharführer. Unterscharführer?
Is that you? Cable.
From what division?
12th Corps.
I'm not sure where they are.
Is that why you're alone?
Where are you from?
From a small town in the west of Germany.
Braunschweig?
Yes! So did I, but I had never seen him before.
Me neither. What is your name?
Hermann Diet Wolff.
You're not like the Germans. Are you German?
No, no!
My mother is Spanish.
Do you know that the Jews work for us?
Of course.
And we hate them.
They were the problem of our country.
Yes right.
And you know they kill them all?
What?
Send them to the fields, so that that they work for us.
Good. This is the conversation.
I do not know. I had no occupation as a field guard.
I did not believe until I saw with the my own eyes.
At where?
In Poland.
I saved the train station. Every day came a train full of Jews.
They are then distributed over several workplaces.
Once they set apart women, when they disembarked from the train.
Someone caught a Jew hiding in the City.
The women in the season.
The SS said they were waiting by a special punishment.
You know what? Do not.
Since then, I've been afraid to see my wife,
among these women.
Your father is a Jew.
Her name is Eleanor.
We loved each other and she moved house.
He fled and moved to Braunschweig.
Since I've been called, I'm dying. of fear that they may find it.
That's why I'm going to desert.
I have been tormented with guilt for a long time.
But I can not stop doing this.
This is bad? This is wrong?
She gave it to me before she left.
I will not let them grab her.
And what are you going to do?
I do not know, surrender to the Americans.
Surrender?
They will help me.
The war will be over soon.
Maybe not.
Good luck, Unterscharführer. Good luck, Corporal Diet Wolff.
You were very lucky.
Here you are, Herkel.
I've seen your report.
Listen, you've never been on vacation.
Next week they will send a plane to the Germany. You're going to fly into it, okay?
Herkel! You're alive!
Go home on Krobel's orders, is another matter.
I did not feel like a coward.
My dear wife, I am returning.
Braunschweig 1944.
It's so strange to be home afterwards. of all this time.
As he said, death here is boredom. without you.
What are we going to eat? I booked two seats in the restaurant.
We go to Haussmann. Sounds good to me.
You are very beautiful.
Let's go.
What is? You are so Beautiful.
Thank you.
So? And up ahead?
In Russia it was catastrophic.
So many bombed cities. And we were lucky here.
It's a small city. That does not interest them.
I'm tired of this situation.
If the Fuhrer could. Do not say that please.
You are right. The situation is not good, but I love you. much, and Germany too.
I do not give up and we will do well, everything whatever is within our reach.
Here I try to disguise myself. But it is not easy.
What does man have to fight for?
What does it mean to love?
Love. Is not she beautiful? Comes.
It's time for love. Time to be brave.
Debt! This is what can not be forgotten.
But love is something without which man can not live.
I want to be with you today.
Doubts constantly boil over me.
I need answers.
Eleanor?
I met your husband in Normandy.
You are at home?
Hi, my name is Ludwig Herkel.
What you want? I met your husband up front.
I thought that as I live nearby I could come and meet you. He told me about you.
Do not be afraid, I will not do any evil to you. He is alive?
Yes.
How does he feel? Was he injured? You can tell me?
He is fine. He was not hurt when I met him.
If you can see it again, tell him hello.
Take care. I gotta go. I was happy in to meet you, Mrs. Diet Wolff.
Unterscharführer! Comrade! What's going on here?
I accompany two Gestapo officers.
The Gestapo? Yes!
Heil Hitler! Heil Hitler!
What's going on here?
Let me go, please! No!
What are they doing?
Do you know this girl? Do not.
Your husband. A vile deserter, and verifying his documents, we perceive,
that she is not German, she is Polish.
Unterscharführer. Are you sure you do not know this girl?
No! But what did she do?
My name is Eleanor! My name is Eleanor! I'm not from Poland!
Surely she was Jewish.
You are crazy? Why was it necessary to shoot?
Unterscharführer.
Your papers, please. Of course.
Unterscharführer. You did not know that, did you? No! I told you.
Heil Hitler! Heil Hitler!
You do not catch me, you do not catch me! Heil! Soldier!
Come here, children. It's time to go home.
It's hard to hide what you feel.
My soldiers are waiting to retrieve my example.
On my return, I was promoted. It annoys me how things are here.
What will the Third Reich do to me? find a new motivation?
Or I'll die soon enough.
Scharführer Herkel, I would like to introduce or Sturmbannführer Prunella.
You can talk later, to give to know about others. But now we have to talk.
Good! What do you write?
Nothing special. Good.
I heard, spread out, a speech detrimental to the morale of the troops.
And they come from you.
Ended up!
You're the commander of your men, right?
Do you realize that we are finished? You understand?
Yes I know. Should we all die like dogs? It is?
It's our job. That's what we do. We fight til the final victory.
Until the final victory. I do not want to complain about you, Herkel.
We fight for nothing, Krobel!
You need to calm down.
Why do I always have to follow your Brilliant ideas, Scholl?
There is nothing!
I'm even stupider than you. There's nothing here.
Hang on! Bet you'll find candy?
Look! Some binoculars.
Come on, come on!
Steiner, you know, this weather unpleasant reminds me of your region.
Why do you always talk parvoice?
Where do you live is even worse. No, you're wrong.
Shut up. Let's go! We have to return. You are jealous.
Let's go!
What are you saying? You know I'm kidding.
Steiner! Right in!
Class!
What's so stinky?
Yes, Scholl. I only do it, only when you are close by. Come on, move!
C'mon C'mon. I am going. You smell like shit. And I will go.
Did you call me, Herr Oberst?
Scharführer.
It does not matter what you did.
You must stop immediately.
Or I'll send him to court.
This will not happen again!
I'll leave you in an hour. Go back to your men.
Are you leaving, Herr Oberst?
You did not understand?
For me the game is over!
Now I gave you an order!
Go back to the platoon, to the commander and do your duty. I'll do mine.
You can go scharführer.
Is this what we do?
We are fighting. It is true.
I'm sorry for today being rude.
I always want to give my best, especially in front of others.
But I understand how you feel.
When you were not there, I followed you. the standartenfuehrer coming back after a search.
It is sometimes difficult to determine what is right, or what is wrong.
But you must. Of course we must.
Where are the guns? Where are?
Speaks!
This family was probably starving.
He said they should be executed.
He ordered.
She, her name was Eleanor. This girl, who lived close to me.
They fired. She was killed because she was Jewish.
I, I just ask about,
What are we going to think about the world? when all this is over.
If we lose this war,
we will be cursed forever.
I never killed a Jew.
Herkel, are we moving forward? Yes. Tomorrow morning.
We moved? Do not.
Let's stay with the commander.
Herkel, listen.
What is wrong?
I do not know.
I'm just too tired.
Radio said that Americans executed 13 German prisoners.
Do not believe everything you hear.
I do not believe. Good my friend.
I'm with you tomorrow.
What if Diet Wolff was saved?
Herkel. An American soldier. The sole survivor of a patrol. Check it out.
See, medallions.
Untersturmführer!
They can kill as much as necessary, but they will not win this war.
What?
Where did you get this? Look at me! Where did you get this?
Answer me, you bastard! Bastard!
Responds!
Bastard! Bastard! Herkel, enough!
Not much to look at.
Not the strength to hold me.
It does not make sense, there is no reason.
Where do I find the Untersturmfuhrer Krobel?
Thank you.
Oberschütze Hans von Grebel.
Do you have a soldier ID?
New soldiers keep coming.
Fresh meat sent for slaughter.
Time to go. Without any strength.
I'm going to kill all those bastards.
Grobel, get your things. You're coming with us.
Eleanor Diet Wolff.
He, dead for them.
She, dead for ours.
What am I fighting for?
Herkel! Take three men and go to the other side.
Curse! Shoot, Herkel, shoot!
Come on!
You're an idiot? Why do not you shoot?
Come back!
Steiner! Steiner!
Run!
It only took a few seconds.
Because nobody wants to die.
For some time I fell into a stupor.
But you still have to fight.
Of course, you still have to fight.
I should!
Steiner.
I can not believe.
He died in my arms.
The only thing left for us is to remind you and honor you.
Nothing else.
Well, why do you have those sour faces?
Steiner!
Hello, comrades.
How are you?
All right?
Well, it's bed time. Good evening.
For you, Steiner.
We lose soldiers all the time. The war could not last any longer.
The more days passed, the more I I was fighting for my wife.
Or my favorite Germany.
We destroy, then rebuild,
We are again destroying it.
First and second platoon! On here!
The second platoon goes first. The first platoon follows.
Understood? Did you understand everything?
Fire!
Do you see the shooter? I Do not.
Stop fire! Stop fire!
Krobel? Where are you, Krobel?
I'm sorry to leave you here, brother.
Scharführer. Remove immediately!
First and second platoon! Withdraw! Fast! Fast
I'm sorry for Krobel's loss, Herkel.
Can I do anything to help?
Can you bring him back?
I get it.
Because,
we fight
You know, I love my country.
I no longer fight for politicians.
I fight for what I love.
My dear Daisy.
Now I do not understand what my duty is.
I can say for sure that I had done everything that was within my reach.
I tried to be a good example, a good one. Soldier.
I did not give up even when I felt quite exhausted.
I hope you see me again soon and be able to be able to hold me.
I tell you that I did everything I could.
I really fought for you, for the their houses, for their land.
I love you so much.
The war did not last long.
The soldiers felt the pressure around them.
Their resistance became more and more desperate.
But they continued to fight.
Sometimes in front of them they could see a little bit of hope.
Sometimes they could only wait.
Wait for life.
Waiting for death.
Even fighting for the freedom of his tyranny,
his soldiers fought for their lives, by your country.
Many of them do not want to see one more defeat.
Many of them are afraid to see their enemies in their own cities.
They had to do it, they had to be there.
Woke up! They had to take up arms,
and end what their leaders have begun.
Again a bullet, again a bomb, again running,
to run for life,
to run to stay alive for more one day.
The German leaders were accused of crimes against humanity.
But we were taught, that these crimes were committed by all Germans.
Those responsible for the crimes were punished as they deserved,
but we all know if it was just fault the army?
They were forced to do everything they could to that they could.
Sadness, without hope, despair.
Unterscharführer. I did everything.
I gave everything that was within my reach.
I can not anymore.
His Honor Was The Loyalty.
When the generals were willing to die for their leaders,
the soldiers were ready to die, defending his people, his brothers.
Politicians often make mistakes.
But the soldiers swore to defend their land natal, just as my husband is ours.
They fought to the end.
Even at that age, when they were not forced to do so,
even when they could only hope that do not drop a bomb in their homes.
We all want to feel safe, Believing we're on the right side of events.
But we do not ask if we are doing the right thing, to launch nuclear bombs on people.
Millions were killed and millions people will die tomorrow,
and we do nothing.
The story written by the victors.
They can tell us how everything went.
They can tell us who the bad guy was.
They can show us the crimes of other armies,
to hide theirs.
Who often judge the things that we do not know.
We are always looking for who can pointing finger, because it's easy.
But I can not deny a thank you, because of that bad German soldier,
My husband is still alive.
I will not justify to my children if were wrong.
I told you that my eyes were opened and I saw,
that not all German soldiers were the same!
