Fast!

Fast! Fast!

Tank! Tanks! We have to go!

Let's go!

You!

How far is the Russian already?

They're already in Friedrichstrasse!

Sergeant! Take cover! Quickly!

Then it won't be long now.

Russians on the road!

Sergeant! Come along!

The Russians are already downstairs.

We have to defend the stairway.

Grenade!

High!

Fast, fast, fast!

Grenade!

Thank you.

Hans.

Your arm.

Is something wrong?

Can I help you?

I am beyond help.

Hans come on! Let's keep drinking!

What are you doing?

Not that fast!

To the final victory!

Not so fast!

Hans...

Hans!

Is everything okay with you?

I don't know...

Did you think it would end like this?

Well...

This is where the curtain falls I think.

How long have you been at it?

From the beginning.

I used to be in the navy.

What?

Yes.

I was a machinist.

On the Blücher.

The Blücher.

Great ship.

Majestic.

You only know what real power is,

once you've been in a car with 130,000 hp

through the swell of the North Sea.

Conquering nature.

Why are you here now?

When it was 40 against the Norwegians,

we entered the Oslofjord at night without lights.

We wanted to surprise them.

But they saw us coming.

And they got us.

Water masses have immediately entered the ship.

I was miraculously able to save myself on deck but

hundreds of comrades were still trapped below.

We heard them in the bow.

How they shouted.

Beating against the shell.

Fighting for their lives.

Then...

Suddenly...

Quiet.

I would have liked to go to sea again.

Unfortunately, the navy no longer has any ships.

Then...

I was called up for field service.

How can you want to get back on a ship after something like that?

Well.

Maybe it would have been better if I had been in the water.

The water was so cold that most people quickly froze to death.

Freezing to death is not a bad death.

It goes very quickly.

You become very calm.

Almost as if you were falling asleep.

Certainly better than screaming for your mother with your guts ripped out.

Shut up...

There...

You have to hope it goes quickly.

A clean hit.

You want a clean hit?

Here!

Can hardly wait anyway.

And you?

What about you?

What are you still fighting for?

I'm not going to Siberia.

I want to go home.

They're waiting for me there.

In my yard.

I'll just go through the gate.

and then they're standing there.

Will say:

We were worried.

Nice to have you back.

Where is your home?

The Curonian Lagoon.

As a child I sat on the beach for hours.

My feet buried in the warm sand.

And then...

I just looked at the sea.

Felt the wind on my face.

There is nothing more beautiful than the sea.

Shifting fire.

Enemy tanks in the Tiergarten.

Where is the artillery?!

The line is dead, no one is coming.

Tank alarm!

Tank!

Panzerfaust!

Fire! Fire!

Out of the way! Bazooka!

Let me through!

Go!

Ammunition for the MG!

Go! Hold it!

Got a jam!

We have to go! Let's go! Let's go!

Down grenade!

Shit!
