:56:00
Runs so,
in a "V".
:56:03
Here is St. Quentin.
You can see for yourself.
:56:06
You're almost through now.
All right?
:56:09
Shove ahead out there and don't stick
to that everlasting French warfare!
:56:14
Smash through the johnnies!
And then you will have peace.
:56:19
When you get in it... the war isn't
the way it looks back here.
:56:23
Oh! You don't know
anything about it.
:56:26
Of course, you know about
the details,
:56:29
but this relates
to the whole!
:56:32
You can't judge that.
:56:34
Of course, you do your duty
and you risk your life.
:56:38
But for that, you receive
the highest honor.
:56:42
I said that every man in the war
ought to have the lron Cross.
:56:45
First, the enemy lines
must be broken through in Flanders.
:56:50
- On to Paris! Push on to Paris!
- Right.
:56:52
No, not in Flanders. I'll tell you
just where the break should come.
:56:56
- Here.
- The enemy has too many reserves there.
:56:59
- I insist upon Flanders!
- Why should they do that...
:57:03
when they're halfway
through St. Quentin already?
:57:06
Because Flanders
is a flat country!
:57:08
- No mountains, no obstructions!
- There's too many rivers there!
:57:29
From the farms they have gone;
:57:31
from the schools,
from the factories.
:57:34
They have gone bravely,
nobly, ever forward,
:57:38
realizing there is no other duty now
but to save the fatherland.
:57:45
Paul!
How are you, Paul?
:57:48
Glad to see you,
Professor.
:57:51
You've come at the right moment,
Baumer! Just at the right moment.
:57:55
And as if to prove all I have said,
here is one of the first to go.
