1:49:02
let me show you what you must do
before you can come home.
1:49:08
Give us a hand there, men.
1:49:10
Now, then, there's the line.
1:49:14
Runs so, in a "V".
1:49:17
Here is St Quentin.
You can see for yourself.
1:49:20
You're almost through now.
All right?
1:49:22
Shove ahead out there and don't stick
to that everlasting trench warfare!
1:49:27
Smash through the johnnies!
And then you will have peace.
1:49:32
When you get in it... the war isn't
the way it looks back here.
1:49:36
Oh! You don't know
anything about it.
1:49:39
Of course, you know
about the details...
1:49:41
but this relates to the whole!
1:49:44
You can't judge that.
1:49:46
Of course, you do your duty
and you risk your life.
1:49:50
But for that, you receive
the highest honour.
1:49:54
I said that every man in the war
ought to have the Iron Cross.
1:49:57
First, the enemy lines
must be broken through in Flanders.
1:50:01
- On to Paris! Push on to Paris!
- Right.
1:50:04
No, not in Flanders. I'll tell you
just where the break should come.
1:50:07
- Here.
- The enemy has too many reserves there.
1:50:10
- I insist upon Flanders!
- Why should they do that...
1:50:14
when they're halfway
through St Quentin already?
1:50:17
Because Flanders
is a flat country!
1:50:19
- No mountains, no obstructions!
- There's too many rivers there!
1:50:41
(Professor)
From the farms they have gone, :
1:50:43
from the schools,
from the factories.
1:50:46
They have gone bravely,
nobly, ever forward...
1:50:50
realizing there is no other duty now
but to save the fatherland.
1:50:56
Paul!
How are you, Paul?
