The count is wrong, you understand?

Can't you count?

Can't you count?

The c-count... count is wrong!

Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!

What's the matter with you all?

Are you all idiots and morons?

Halt!

Halt!

Halt.

All right.

Everyone with exemptions

will pick up their luggage

and return to their quarters.

The rest of you

will remain here.

Natalie Henry.

Louis Henry.

I'll take the luggage.

No. Just take Louis.

He's exhausted.

And, Aaron...

For god's sakes, get in touch with Berel.

Operation Overlord

the cross-channel invasion of France

is set for June 5, 1944.

In preparation,

the U. S. Has shipped to the British isles

a staggering 11/2 million servicemen

and 5 million tons

of invasion supplies and equipment,

some 320,000 different kinds of items,

from guns and ammunition

to cigarettes and chewing gum.

And stacked high in a corner

of a camp in Dorchester

uncounted coffins.

In General Eisenhower's words,

England has been transformed

into the greatest operating military base

of all time.

And in the words of their English hosts,

The American GI

is overpaid,

oversexed,

and over here.

no pretty little girls to deceive me

I'm happy as a lark, believe me

as we go rollin', rollin' home

rollin' home

whoo! Hey! Woo-woo! Hey!

Rollin' home, get drunk

rollin' home, get drunk

by the light of the silvery moon

happy is the day

when a soldier gets his pay

and we go rollin', rollin' home

Pam!

Leslie!

Leslie!

Aw. Aw. Aw.

Aw, Leslie.

What are you doing here?

Hooray! Hey! Hooray!

All right. Go on.

I'll meet you. Go on.

What are you doing here?

I've come to see you.

Me? How?

You're with the Jedburgh.

How did you learn that?

I'm with the air ministry that's dropping you.

Your name's on the schedule.

Well, is it lady Berne-Wilke yet?

No. He's recuperating from an air crash.

I'm headed to the hospital.

Got time for a drink?

No, I'm afraid not.

Do you have a few minutes?

Yes, I have.

It's wonderful to see an old face.

Not that your face is old.

Well, I was having very shaky second thoughts

about volunteering for the Jedburghs.

Told the board, the reviewing board,

straight out that I was a high-strung coward.

They didn't know quite what to make of that.

Asked me why did I put in for the duty.

So, I, uh...

Gave them my song and dance about the Jews.

And they packed me off to a psychiatrist.

And for some reason, they passed me.

Must be damned hard up for Jeds.

For heaven's sake, Leslie,

stop being so hard on yourself.

Tell me something.

You seeing much of Admiral Henry these days?

Admiral? What on earth are you talking about?

It's Rear Admiral now.

Made a blaze with a parade,

battle ribbons, and stars.

He was at our embassy.

Here?

In England?

Yeah.

Really.

Has he been here long?

Why don't you ask him yourself?

Try the U. S. Amphibious base at Exeter.

That's where he said he was going.

Walk me to my car.

It's a million years since Paris, isn't it?

Oh, you know,

I did some drinking last month

with Phil Rule in London.

He'd gotten utterly gross,

falling down drunk.

Yeah, I know. That's sad.

Victor wrote that Natalie's waiting out the war

in a Czech ghetto.

Yeah.

We've all gone a long way.

But at least we had Paris.

We were young and happy and full of fun.

Were we?

I think we worked awfully hard

at being Ernest Hemingway characters,

altogether too rash and ravishing mad.

I prefer my memories.

Till we meet again.

Good luck with your mission, Leslie.

I do very much admire you.

Admiral, phone call.

A Pamela Tudsbury.

Where may I take it?

In my office, Henry.

Thank you.

I had a time tracking you down.

Might you be in London Thursday?

Yes, I will.

Come have dinner with us.

Duncan and me at Stoneford.

It's 30 minutes from town.

How do I get there?

Get to the Bushey Park depot.

I'll pick you up at 4:00, and we'll talk.

Duncan sleeps from 4:00 to 6:00. Doctor's orders.

How is he?

A bit poorly.

Others will be at dinner,

including General Eisenhower.

Telegraph cottage, his country place, is nearby.

Exalted company for me, Pamela.

I don't think so, Admiral Henry.

That's two stars and only temporary.

Oh, Leigh-Mallory will be there, too.

Eisenhower's air force commander.

Well, I'm sure you're very busy.

I'll see you Thursday at 4:00.

Alright.

Goodbye.

As the situation on the Russian front deteriorates

and the Allied Invasion in the west appears imminent,

the conspiracy to overthrow Adolf Hitler

takes on a desperate urgency.

On his way to a most important meeting

Is Count Claus Sheen von Stauffenberg.

Recently severely wounded in north Africa,

Stauffenberg has lost two fingers of his left hand,

his right hand at the wrist,

and his left eye.

Ah, Stauffenberg, come in.

Am I very late?

No. I have news.

Lieutenant General Hans Speidel,

Field Marshall Rommel's Chief of Staff.

It was he who's called this meeting.

Retired Lieutenant General Ludwig von Beck,

former Army Chief of Staff,

longtime leader of the plot.

Dr. Karl Goodlier,

mayor of Leipzig,

longtime conspirator.

Dr. Hans Gisevius,

renegade Gestapo bureaucrat.

He has been involved in

all plots against Hitler from the beginning.

Haider, you've heard that Hitler has fired Manstein?

Oh, yes. I'm in good company.

And it keeps getting better.

And your news?

Rommel will stand with us.

Are you absolutely sure?

No more hedging?

His exact words were

"It's my duty to come to the rescue of my country. "

When it happens,

you'll be right there in his headquarters

to keep him in the picture.

When what happens?

I too have news.

General Fromm has requested me

as Chief of Staff of the home army.

The home army.

It's riddled with our people.

And has standing orders

to take over the country in an emergency.

One code word... Valkyrie.

But the Valkyrie emergencies are strictly defined

an uprising of foreign workers, a mutiny.

We'll create the emergency...

By killing Hitler.

Where's your access to Hitler?

General Fromm's Chief of Staff

reports to Hitler on home army readiness and rosters.

Hitler uses home army units

as reserve formations.

I'll see him once or twice a week.

How will you do it?

With a bomb.

A bomb with an acid time fuse.

All I have to do is crushes the fuse

to start the acid down to the explosive.

And you can manipulate such a device

under pressure

with only three fingers?

Yes. I can.

I'll kill him,

and I'll fly back here

to direct the coup d'etat.

A plane will be arranged.

I'll pick my occasion

when all three are present

Hitler, Goering, and Himmler.

Your chances of killing all three of them

are nonexistent.

Maybe you will kill Hitler.

But assuming that you do,

that will only be an excuse for Himmler

to murder all of us.

You are against it.

Why are you at this meeting?

To prevent madness.

The German people

are still fanatically behind him.

So is most of the army.

At best,

you can only succeed in making him

the martyred Napoleon of Germany.

And we

we shall be the ones

who stabbed him in the back.

It is all too late.

Let the enemy prevail.

Let them hang the scoundrel.

All right.

You've heard Haler's view.

You've been in this as long as he has.

How do you stand?

I have always preferred arrest.

But if there is no other way...

Kill him.

Kill him.

Kill him.

Rommel wants him arrested.

He's against killing him.

You're not Rommel.

I'm asking you.

Kill him.

All right, Haler.

Are you with us?

Yes.

I am with you.

Kill him.

It is decided.

You look smashing, Admiral.

Well, the big gold stripe helps.

Actually, you look a bit war-worn...

so American, they should carve you on Mount Rushmore.

You think so, Pam?

You look pretty good yourself.

I felt like being out of uniform.

How long will you be here?

I'm flying back tomorrow night.

So soon.

Overnight in Washington,

then on to the Pacific.

So, tell me about Duncan.

He's not doing too well, I'm afraid.

Some sort of tropical infection

got into his blood stream.

Well, there's some good news in my family.

Madeline married that young naval officer.

Wonderful.

Pleasantest turnaround in my life.

They're in new Mexico.

Byron got his bronze star.

By all accounts, he's an excellent submariner.

Janice is in law school.

There's even some hope about Natalie.

The Red Cross is sending a neutral delegation

to her camp soon,

so maybe we will get some word from her.

If the Germans allow the Red Cross in,

the camp can't be too bad.

And Rhoda?

Rhoda's in Reno getting her divorce.

She actually went through with it?

She actually went through with it.

Well, tell me about your promotion.

It came from Admiral King,

face to face,

right after the President

ordered me on this mission.

The Admiral even threw in a battleship division.

A battleship division?

Yeah.

That's absolutely marvelous. A division.

He said it was my reward for good work.

He said I could fight a division if I had to.

There's two ships, Pam,

two of our best

the Iowa and the New Jersey

what's the matter?

Nothing.

Nothing at all.

Oh, Victor.

It's the best thing for my career.

A monumental surprise.

Of course that's a carrier war out there.

The battle wagons bombard the beaches.

I'll probably just, uh,

ride around in fancy flag quarters

till the end of the war,

initialing documents and looking pompous.

It's terrific.

It's absolutely, utterly, bloody flaming terrific.

I agree.

It's ok.

Interesting, Henry, you were in Leningrad.

I wasn't aware we got in.

Haven't seen any intelligence on it.

Technically, I was a lend-lease observer,

but I sent a supplement on combat aspects to O. N. I.

Kay, make sure you get that stuff

from naval intelligence for me tomorrow.

Yes, General.

Henry, you know the Russians.

Once we go, will they attack in the east?

Harriman's assured me the attack is on,

but there's plenty of skepticism around here.

They'll go, Sir. That's my guess.

The Russians are politically unpredictable.

They don't see the world as we do.

That may never change.

Still, uh,

I think they'll honor this military commitment.

Why do you say that Henry?

Self interest, of course.

I agree, Henry.

Hit the other fellow when his hands are full.

They're bound to go.

Also, the sense of honor.

That they do have.

Well, if they've got that much in common with us,

eventually, we'll get along with them.

We'll build on that.

I wonder, General.

We have trouble getting along,

and we have a common language.

It only seems we do.

Mrs. Summersby, I drink to that and to you.

This way.

See you later.

We'll serve brandy and coffee in the library.

They'll be talking for ages.

I've lots to do at the general's cottage.

You'll forgive me if I just pop over there.

Of course.

See you later.

No doubt, you deeply disapprove of Kay Summersby,

or do you bend your rules for great men?

All I know about her is what meets the eye.

I know them both.

I'm sure that's all there is to it.

Charles, leave that there.

Pity you couldn't be more broad-minded

about your wife.

I tried to stick it out, Pamela.

You know that.

Rhoda chose differently.

You froze her.

Will she be happy with her fellow, though?

I don't know.

I've met him a couple times,

talked to him.

He didn't act happy.

At this point,

I think he's doing the honorable thing.

Poor Rhoda.

Isn't that the dress

you wore that night at the savoy?

I'm surprised you remember.

How could I forget?

Why didn't you answer my letter?

Just a word, any word.

Why did I discover by chance

you were in England?

Do you hate me that much?

I wrote the gallant goodbye letter,

I wrote the refusal

to take no for an answer letter.

I wrote lots of letters.

I tore them all up.

I don't believe in begging a woman to change her mind.

I doubt begging does any good.

Besides, I'm not very good at it.

All right, Pamela.

What's it all about?

Your letter was horribly mistimed.

I've been wretched since I wrote to you.

When Slote said you were here,

it was the biggest shock in my life.

Seeing you is incredibly,

incredibly sweet.

I told you in Moscow.

I'll tell you again.

I love you, not Duncan.

I've said it. Now talk.

Well, speak up.

Will you have me or not?

I tell you what, Pamela.

I'll think about it.

Ohh!

Careful!

You're shaking mount Rushmore.

I'll shake it down,

that damn stuffy Yankee monument.

What is this?

A little while ago, you turned me down.

What's changed?

Rhoda's gone.

I never really thought it would happen.

Now it has.

And here we are together,

not separated by the whole planet.

I'm so happy.

I'll have to hurt Duncan.

It can't be helped.

It's my life.

Amazing.

Old Rhoda said that all you needed was a little wooing.

She said that?

Wise woman.

But I've never gotten it and never would.

Lucky I'm a forward slut.

Pamela, look.

That war in the Pacific

may take a long time.

The Japs are still raising hell.

If it comes to a fleet action,

I'll probably be in it,

and I may wind up losing.

So?

What are you saying?

That I'd be prudent to keep Duncan on a string?

I'm saying you don't have to make up your mind.

God knows I love you

and want you,

but remember what you said in Moscow.

Remind me.

That these rare meetings of ours

generate an illusion of romance,

a wartime thing without substance.

I'll gamble the rest of my life it's a lie.

I'll have to tell Duncan right away.

He won't be surprised.

Hurt, yes,

and... oh, how I dread it.

They weren't long, were they?

We haven't arranged anything.

Call me at the air ministry at 8:00.

Now, for god's sake, kiss me.

As Operation Overlord

continues to build momentum,

Adolf Hitler lays plans

to counter the coming assault

on his "impregnable" Atlantic wall.

Lieutenant Werner von Haeften,

aide to Stauffenberg,

and partner in the conspiracy

to assassinate the Fuhrer.

Hitler will be there in a few minutes.

Only Himmler isn't coming.

But Rommel's is here.

Yes.

I know.

What will you do?

Are all the preparations in place?

The plane's waiting at Salzburg.

General Fromm's in Berlin

ready to trigger Valkyrie once we flash the word.

The bomb.

You brought along a change of shirt.

If Rommel's leaves the meeting,

I'll trigger it.

In the room?

In the room.

Just give me 5 minutes after you see him go

before you have me called.

By giving up Rome, Fuhrer,

we can make a much stronger line to the north.

He who holds Rome,

in the eyes of the world, holds Italy.

I will never give up Rome.

Never!

Absolutely right, Mein Fuhrer.

The channel invasion map.

Ya.

They will land...

Here.

Normandy?

It's 3 times as far as the Pais de Calais.

That's why it will be a diversionary force.

Their main attack will come here

Pais de Calais,

the short route across the channel,

and then into the Ruhr.

We'll keep an eye on Normandy,

but this is where we will squash them.

Piles of dead Americans

stinking up the French coast.

That can be the finisher

to that crazy cripple, Roosevelt.

He'll lose the election,

and with luck, end up in jail somewhere,

or perhaps some patriot will shoot him.

Then you agree, Mein Fuhrer,

that the place to oppose the invasion

is right at the beaches.

Rundstedt disagrees.

It's a question of how we deploy the panzers.

I intend to hold them

on a strong defense line inland

until the invasion main body is ashore,

then bag the lot and slaughter them.

But once they are ashore,

with total air superiority

just a minute!

My Luftwaffe will rise

to do battle.

There's merit in both your views.

It depends on the situation at the time.

Therefore, I shall take

operational control of the panzers.

Well, I have very urgent business

to attend to in Cherbourg.

How are the divisions in Hungary?

2 divisions are leaving tonight for Italy.

Good. With those 2

and 2 or more from the home front,

2 or more blocking divisions

from the home front,

we will stop their entry into Rome forever!

Let the Anglo-Saxons

bleed themselves to death

trying to break through.

What about the home army report?

Stauffenberg!

Never mind.

I have no time now.

I have lunch guests.

Read it and give me a summary after my nap.

Stauffenberg.

Come to my office.

Well Oberst?

Yes. Immediately, Herr Marshal.

June 4, 1943.

D- day minus one.

in Eisenhower�s own words,

the mighty expedition is tense

as a great human spring,

colled for the moment

when its energy will be released,

and It will vault the English channel

in the greatest amphibious assault

ever attempted.

That channel weather's very changeable, General.

General Dwight D. Eisenhower

needs a minimum 23-hours lead time

to launch or postpone operation "Overlord".

Although he will consult

with his supreme headquarters staff,

the decision will be his alone.

The wind in the channel is west, southwest,

force 5-6.

Chief meteorologist of Overlord,

Group Captain J. M. Stagg.

To sum up,

this huge storm system,

developing near Iceland,

will produce low cloud, high wind,

and formidable wave action

at the invasion sites.

Chief Air Marshal Sir Arthur Tedder,

Eisenhower�s Air Chief for "Overlord".

Conditions for close air support?

Cloud cover may be down to 200 feet all day.

Impossible.

Admiral?

Admiral Sir Bertram Home Ramsey,

Commander-In-Chief of the

Allied naval expeditionary force.

I could, perhaps, land your forces,

but I can't speak for accurate gunfire support.

If you can land me,

I'll go.

General Sir Bernard Law Montgomery,

Ground Commander, Allied armies.

Large units are already at sea.

Further delay would prove horrendous.

It would prove horrendous the other way.

Without that naval gun cover and...

General Omar Bradley,

Commander U. S. First Army Group.

We have two more days

of the right moon and tide.

But no guarantee of better weather.

None, Sir.

Thereafter a delay of weeks.

A stand down now for the troops

would be catastrophic to morale.

And to secrecy.

We all know Rommel is hardening up Normandy

like fury day by day.

Lieutenant General Walter Bedell Smith,

Eisenhower�s Chief of Staff.

Precisely why all those troops

in the first wave

need all the air and naval gun support

that we can give them.

Postponed for 24 hours.

I shall turn back at once

formations on the Irish sea.

General Eisenhower's quarters.

God, the General just laid down.

Ah, Mr. Prime Minister, he's got you started.

Good.

General.

Don't get up.

A little light reading?

Puts me to sleep, or helps.

You should try whiskey like me.

Much better for you.

I've always taken more out of whiskey

than whiskey's taken out of me.

So...

The supreme climax comes.

Africa's cleared.

India's been saved.

Battered Japan recoils.

Stalin's driven the German from his country.

We've taken Rome.

We're masters of the sea and air

for our immense amphibious enterprise.

The monster Hitler's doomed.

Not just yet.

The operation hangs

on the thread of 5 divisions

hitting the beach against Rommel's

and the toughest soldiers on earth.

Hitler has as many as 50 divisions

ready to strike the west,

10 of them panzers.

The Germans have had 4 years

to fortify that coast.

Mine it, booby-trap it.

They're masters of that.

It's a terrific gamble, Mr. Prime minister.

If those 5 divisions are crushed on the first day,

it's all over.

And it can go either way.

I'm in this with you until the end, Ike.

And if it fails,

we go down together.

Get some rest.

The conditions we predicted

for the coast of France

are raging over there today.

If we'd gone,

we'd be having a major disaster right now.

You said there's been a development.

Yes.

An almost freak occurrence.

An unforeseen break has shown up

moving eastward.

It'll be over the channel tomorrow

giving relatively good weather.

For how long?

About 36 hours.

The long-term prediction.

Still not good.

Storm systems, clear to Canada,

coming our way for the next 3 weeks.

Group Captain.

Tomorrow at 6:30 a. m.

When we start landing,

what will the weather actually be at the coast?

To answer that, General, would make me a guesser,

not a meteorologist.

With 36 hours of endurable weather,

we can land the troops and hold the beachhead

by a whisker.

If you landed the first of several waves,

and then the weather halts the buildup,

they'll be easy meat for the Germans.

I know that.

I don't like it.

The consequences of delay

justify great risk.

Ok, we go.

June 5, 1943...

Dawn.

With the supreme commander's order,

175,000 men of the first wave

and more than 5,000 ships

of every description

were put out to sea.

It Is the greatest Invasion fleet

ever to sail the oceans of the world.

Weather report, Field Marshal.

An invasion is out of the question.

Yes.

Certainly through next week.

That would take us to the 15th.

We can still do a lot of mine laying off Normandy.

Excellent.

Get me Runstedt.

Rundstedt,

you have received the invasion forecast?

I have.

With your permission, I'll drive home

and spend my wife's birthday with the family.

I have an appointment with the Fuhrer tomorrow.

You still want to deploy panzers at the beaches?

No matter how we deploy them,

we've got to get them from his control.

600 miles from here in Obersalzburg.

That's crazy.

Indeed.

I agree with you 100 percent.

Well, good luck with the Fuhrer.

Tell your wife for me,

happy birthday.

I'll do that. Thank you.

4:48 p. m.

General Eisenhower visits the troops

of the 101st airborne.

This is a wonderful thing you're doing, General.

Leigh-Mallory's predicting 50�/% casualties

for the 101st airborne.

50�/%.

He wanted to cancel the drop.

Sort of a gloomy gus, the Air Chief Marshal.

I hope you're right.

In order for the landing to succeed,

the 101st must secure those causeways.

General Eisenhower.

Ike?

Excuse me, Sir.

Go right ahead, Sir.

As H-hour approaches,

the office of strategic services

prepares to drop Jedburgh team "Maurice,"

the last of more than 903-man squads,

behind enemy lines.

Their mission,

organize local resistance

to confuse and harass the German defenders.

We're ready. 30 seconds.

Ok, Mr. Slote.

Your team's going.

Ok.

Go!

Go!

Go!

Parachutiste American!

Welcome to France.

Marquis?

Of course, marquis.

I am Claude Gallieni of chantilly.

Am I ever glad to see you,

all of you.

Bon soir.

Bon soir.

Bon soir.

Let's get out of here.

General.

Yeah?

"Saint-mere-Eglise

Pont-I' Abbe"

and Orne?

Yes, General.

Those are the reports.

And more coming in.

Get me Rommel.

Yes?

Yes, Spiedel.

Airborne troops?

Parachutists or gliders?

In what force?

Where?

Any naval activity?

What's the weather like?

What are you sending to oppose them?

Good. Good.

Call me with any more news,

but I'm on my way.

Is it the invasion?

Most unlikely.

Normandy.

An airborne diversion.

Still, this Eisenhower

He's not a gambler.

This weather...

It is a surprise.

Maybe he's putting his head in a noose.

Well, Lu...

We've had your birthday together.

The loveliest of my life.

Harry, this recording isn't for broadcast

until we have the landing confirmed by Eisenhower.

That's right, Sir.

You know, I've been thinking, boss.

You took office in '33.

So did Hitler.

Now, 111/2 years later,

you meet head on at the Normandy coast.

It almost seems like destiny.

I believe in destiny.

Also in getting on with the thing.

We're ready, Mr. President.

My fellow Americans...

What are you writing, General?

It's another draft of the landings announcement?

Not exactly.

An alternate draft.

Our landings in the Cherbourg-Havre area

have failed to gain a satisfactory foothold

and I have withdrawn the troops.

If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt,

it is mine alone.

Just in case.

I don't want any mistakes about blame.

About who gave the orders.

You'll never use it.

Yes?

Yes!

Yes, Admiral.

Ramsay.

Good.

That's very good news, indeed.

Uh-huh.

Yes.

God yes, put him through!

General, it's Leigh-Mallory.

Admiral, let me call you back.

The Air Chief Marshal's on the other line.

Eisenhower here.

Thank God.

The 101st.

Leigh-Mallory,

Ramsey's reporting naval bombardment has begun.

The first wave's ready to launch.

Not one vessel was lost in the crossing.

Not one.

Leigh-Mallory,

congratulations on your splendid air operations.

Kay

My greatest moment in this war

maybe my life

just happened

when Leigh-Mallory said,

the 101st has gone into action,

and fewer casualties than expected.

My fellow Americans,

last night when I spoke with you

about the fall of Rome,

I knew that troops of the United States

and our Allies

were crossing the channel

In another and greater operation.

It has come to pass to success thus far.

And so I ask you

to join with me In prayer.

Almighty god,

our sons,

pride of our nation,

this day have set upon a mighty endeavor

to set free a suffering humanity.

They fight, not for the lust of conquest.

They fight to end conquest.

They yearn but for the end of battle,

for the return to the haven of home.

Lead them straight and true.

Give strength to their arms,

stoutness to their hearts,

steadfastness to their faith.

They will need thy blessings.

Their road will be hard and long

for the enemy Is strong.

He may hurl back our forces.

Some may never return.

Embrace these, father,

and receive them Into thy kingdom.

Success may not come with rushing speed,

but we shall return again and again.

Give us faith, Indeed

faith In our sons,

faith In one another.

Faith In our united crusade.

And with thy blessing,

we shall prevail

over the unholy forces

of our enemy.

I won't wake the Fuhrer.

He was up very late.

Then at least release the 4 panzer division

either to Rundstedt or to Rommel's.

Look,

the Fuhrer has reserved control of the panzers.

It is he who will release them.

Anyway, this looks like a diversion.

Sucking the panzers into Normandy

may be just what the enemy is after.

One must respond to massive landings

airborne troops, thousands of ships!

Thousands, ha.

Panicky rumors started in beach pillboxes.

Totally unconfirmed.

We'll continue this at Klessheim castle.

Klessheim castle.

The British and Americans

are pouring ashore,

and we are going to take a luncheon

with the Hungarians?

Take a sedative, Roon, and come along.

Everything is under supreme control.

And my secret weapons

are already on the launching sites.

Oh yes,

unspeakable terror

will soon rain down upon England.

Excellent.

Yes.

Well,

here we are, eh?

Now we've got them

where we can hit them.

They're against a curtain

of steel and fire.

We're squashing them into the ground.

Splendid Mein Fuhrer. Splendid.

Mein Fuhrer,

we have been in touch with von Rundstedt.

Rundstedt is requesting release

of the Normandy panzers

to his operational control.

What for? It's all a fake, this landing.

We're ready when they make their main attack

against the Pais de Calais,

then my panzers will get to work

and Slaughter them.

Mein Fuhrer, you astound the world

with your Napoleonic flair.

What about a little lunch?

It is only I who am confined to vegetables.

Jodl!

This is madness, Jodl.

One of us must fly to the front at Normandy,

see for ourselves, and make the Fuhrer respond.

General staff are forbidden to fly.

But he's in a very good mood.

Ask his permission.

I shall.

Don't worry.

Though I am sure you are overreacting.

I didn't talk to the Fuhrer until 3:00.

3:00 this afternoon?

After lunch, he took a nap.

When he woke up,

he finally released 2 panzer divisions.

2 only 2

that is totally inadequate.

Inadequate?

Do you know what has happened

since you left Berchtesgaden this afternoon?

The allies have driven

past the beaches at 4 locations

at Arromanches,

here and here at Lyons,

and here at Sainte-Mere-Eglise!

We had them pinned down earlier here at Varreville,

but they are breaking out

with reinforcements constantly pouring ashore.

He still believes the main attack will come

at Pais de Calais.

I'll drive to the front immediately,

take back a firsthand report.

Perhaps that will change his thinking.

Ha.

Don't get captured by the paratroopers.

Sergeant,

come over here.

Well, sergeant, where are you fighting?

Avranches.

Tell me about it.

General, I was at Verdun.

It was nothing,

nothing compared to this.

The dive bombers,

the bombardment from the battleships,

I have never seen such slaughter.

General,

The war is lost.

Not quite, I hope.

However, I believe I've seen enough.

Back to the airfield as fast as we can go.

You've been flitting about, haven't you?

I have been there Jodl

I've seen it with my own eyes.

Have you talked to the Fuhrer

about moving the 15th army from Pais de Calais?

The opportunity hasn't arisen.

Maybe I'll get a chance to mention it

at the situation conference.

Mention it?

You must demand it.

We cannot contain the beachhead.

They've landed more than 100,000 troops,

thousands of tons of equipment.

Eisenhower is building up his forces

like an avalanche.

I am going to tell the Fuhrer

if it costs me my head.

I advise you to be very careful of what you say.

Several counterattacks

were carried out successfully in Normandy.

Panzer divisions

east of Rouen

were able to break through the enemy bridgehead.

And they suffered heavy casualties.

And the British landing force

has been thrown back

in the Caen area

with massive losses.

And,

Is that all?

Eh, yes, Fuhrer,

from the dispatches.

Although I see General Roon is back with us now

after his trip to the front.

Well,

so much for Normandy.

What's, Happening in the east?

During the past 24 hours,

a new offensive was launched by the enemy

in the Carrion Straights.

Where?

The Carrion Straights, Fuhrer.

The railway station was badly hit.

Several cities

Severstre,

Uzi,

Kierko,

and Kanyanyerlvi

had to be abandoned.

All right,

one last time, gentlemen.

Marcel's group comes in from the east quietly,

takes up positions north,

and south of the barracks,

and holds there.

Our group, the Trojan horse group,

makes its way to the kitchen.

Is the truck ready?

Yes, as you ordered.

Marcel, very important.

Once we're inside the German garrison,

no firing until we blow the ammunition dumps.

Is that clear?

Ok, yeah.

Laffart, what's the latest count?

I was able to find 20 more men.

20?

That makes 86.

Enough to do the job.

Yeah.

Gentlemen...

Let's go.

Chuck, Tommy.

Merde, Tommy.

Good luck to you, too.

Wait till the bloody gerries

get a taste of this bordeaux, eh, Leslie?

Laffart, I ride up front with you.

Ok. Let's go.

No, no, no, no. Just go around it.

No room.

I said go around it!

Natalie's, it's true.

The Americans and British are landing in France

in great numbers.

They're driving on Cherbourg.

The BBC,

Goldberg heard it on the radio in the Dresden barracks.

What's the matter?

They told me to report to SS headquarters

tomorrow morning at 8:00.

They told me at the mica factory

with Louis.

It's probably a warning.

You are the only one of your group

that hasn't been transported, Natalie's.

Yes, it must be a warning.

But why bring Louis?

Well, you took him with you last time.

The adjutant probably remembers that.

That's all it is, I'm sure,

a serious warning.

Have you heard from Berel?

They say it may take

more than a week to reach him.

Everything is going to be all right.

But this is most important.

You must be humble and contrite

and promise you'll cooperate for the future

in every way.

And keep your spirits up, my dear.

That's crucial.

Da!

You're the dirty Jewish whore

who's been plotting against the German government ja?

Mommy!

Well, are you or aren't you?

Take the dirty little bastard

away from her.

Mommy, mommy.

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Mommy!

I was insane, misled.

I will cooperate,

just please don't hurt my baby.

Don't hurt your baby,

you stupid little bitch.

Don't you realize that?

That's for the garbage he will be in

in just one minute,

and you'll clean it up yourself.

No, you don't.

No!

So you thought you could get away with it?

Oh, your filthy Jewish plotting and scheming.

He is dead!

Go on, Haindl,

tear him apart!

Aah! No!

Tear him!

No, stop him!

I'll do anything, don't kill him!

Rip him in half!

So,

you will do anything?

Are you? Well, we'll see if you will.

Mommy!

Mommy!

Well?

Mommy.

Yes...

Yes, all right,

I... will.

Mommy.

Look, she really wants it,

Herr Kommandant.

Oh, these Jewess are all the same.

Go ahead. Let her have her fun.

Get away from me.

Mommy!

You think I'd let

a dirty Jew come near me?

Save it for your uncle

the Talmud Rabbi.

Aah!

Get up on your feet!

Now

listen to me,

Jew sow.

When the Red Cross arrives,

you will be the guide

in the children's department,

and you'll make a very fine impression on them.

They will write you up in their reports,

and you'll be a very happy American Jewess.

And the children's pavilion

will be your pride and joy.

Of course.

Of course.

But when the Red Cross have gone,

if you have misbehaved in any way,

you'll be brought back here with your brat,

and Haindl will rip him in 2 before your eyes.

You'll clean it up

and take him to the crematorium.

Then, after that,

you'll be taken to a P. O. W Hut

for the road gang.

200 stinking Ukrainians

will have you one after another for a week,

and if your whore carcass

can survive all of this,

you will be taken to the little fortress

and shot.

You understand?

I will do everything you say.

I will make a wonderful impression.

And if you say a word of this

to your uncle or to anybody else

about any of this,

you will be shot.

Kaput.

Do you believe me?

I do, I do, I do.

Get her out of here.

Come on, out.

We're all right.

It was just a warning.

I must change my clothes and go to work.

I wanted to tell you.

Word has come from Berel.

They're going to try.
