:15:14
As I was saying, fortunately
those two men did not get very far.
:15:19
They had the good sense to rejoin us,
so my record stands unblemished.
:15:24
Nobody has ever escaped
from Stalag 17.
:15:29
Not alive, anyway.
:15:45
- Sergeant Hoffman of Barracks 4.
- Yes, Sergeant Hoffman?
:15:49
As Compound Chief, I protest at the way
these bodies are left lying in the mud.
:15:53
- Anything else?
- Yes. Under the Geneva Convention,
:15:57
dead prisoners
must be given a decent burial.
:15:59
Of course. I am aware
of the Geneva Convention.
:16:02
They'll be given
the burial they deserve.
:16:05
Or would you like us to haul in
21 cannons from the Eastern Front
:16:10
and give them a 21-gun salute?
:16:17
For the last time gentlemen,
let me remind you.
:16:21
Any prisoners found
outside the barracks after lights out
:16:24
will be shot on sight.
:16:26
Furthermore,
the iron stove in Barrack Four,
:16:30
the one camouflaging the trap door,
will be removed.
:16:34
And so the men from this barrack
do not suffer from the cold,
:16:37
they will keep warm by filling
in the escape tunnel. Is that clear?
:16:45
All right, then, gentlemen,
we are all friends again.
:16:49
And with Christmas coming,
I have a special treat for you.
:16:53
I'll have you all deloused
for the holidays.
:16:56
And I'll have a little Christmas tree
for every barrack. You will like that.
