only the bad polish roads and the supply

problem can slow our offensive if our

cancer columns with no opposition in

front of them are halted in the middle

of Poland because of supply failure

our prestige are you telling me that we

cannot supply 75 divisions for this

campaign

no knife you're right I am simply asking

the question I want answers not

questions

Myrtle yeah I have asked Colonel shuttle

endure my staff to prepare a report on

the logistical situation I gather

gentlemen I have before me made pages

effects and figures detailed data of the

problems of supply for our forces in the

Polish campaign but we are on the eve of

war at this late hour laughs Yura want

solutions not problems and show that I'm

speaking for my superiors when I say

that if the Fuhrer orders that we supply

75 divisions or 100 divisions it will be

done I have taken the liberty of

preparing a tender to the report showing

how this supply mission can be

accomplished however if the general

Starr wishes to hear a detail logistical

report out that won't be necessary now

there will be continued negotiations

with England and France during the

coming week but this will not affect my

plans on the 1st of September

[Music]

rank than his but I assured him that you

judge a man by his service to the Fuhrer

rather than by his rank yes of course

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

for that you come here this time at

assignment no no change of assignment

but something new goes with rank an

aeroplane I have been assigned the plane

fueled and ready to take off I can go

anywhere I could be in England in a few

hours

bad thoughts bad thoughts 25 years in 25

years ever since I've been living this

masquerade living as an exile with roots

going nowhere clock without a face I

felt at home

for the first time when I said in the

cockpit of airplane this time I could

forget as written off as a traitor by my

country my family they've never relieve

you of your post you'll know that even

if you did escape the War Office will

probably consider you a deserter

you're still under orders you know

they're to assignor it it's not been

easy for you Alex

and it will be more difficult for you as

time goes on that it has been difficult

for others too

yes of course all right I know I

shouldn't complain if I'd spent those

years at home with any luck I might

perhaps be a major that know what's

really wrong Alex you know everybody

I've seen gets into this mood in the

first year at their assignment your

clocks are undone and twenty four years

behind no I'm not sorry for myself

it's just that I had a big fright this

evening and so somebody suspected a

woman a beautiful woman I met her again

tonight fall in love or anything like

that I know the risks it doesn't worry

me it worried you and that worries me

you've done so well with a difficult

assignment I hate to offer advice advice

has saved my life more than once

Erick's you're on duty 24 hours a day

you've got to learn to relax with this

promotion you're under a magnifying

glass you'll be conspicuous if you don't

run with the pack that shouldn't be so

hard for you to do from what I hear of

the women in your circle go back to the

job running away from this woman will

only be worse now I've been locked in

the barn for too long this might lead to

more than just a pleasant evening I

can't take the chance and you don't have

to I should take the chance is that an

order of course

[Music]

in yours I do belong I dream and I've

seen things I know nothing kind i love

such as ours so you're not free for your

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

tell me one thing is it me you don't

like on my singing you always seem to

disappear well tonight I've come back

that must prove that I like those there

can be nice when you want to I forgive

you let's drink to that to the nice

things oh I do like clocks I've got

quite a large collection but I'd like to

don't you mean etchings how beautiful is

I only acquired it the other day it's a

musical part of technic clock it has

quite a history the most interesting

thing is that it was made originally it

is that oh that's quite interesting it's

called a clip Citroen it's probably the

earliest type of timepiece that can be

called a mechanical clock this cylinder

is filled with water which drips through

this opening regularly into the tank

below causing a float inside to fall and

so work the gears like this interesting

these clocks are very nice is that all

you're interested in is that all you

want out of life well it's very

difficult to know what one does one that

is life do you know what you want yes

for me it's easy I'm a woman I want to

be a successful singer do you know

you're at the end of the road you've

nowhere to go you are a woman and you

are a successful singer your records are

heard everywhere you sing on the radio

and broadcast to the Troops but my real

ambition is to sing in Paris and London

hurry it up for me will you start the

attack on France soon so I can see Paris

while I'm still young

did I say something wrong I'm a country

you have reminded me of all the work I

have to do if we are to accelerate

victory in the West for you my aid will

drive you up

Riteish good night good night

[Music]

[Music]

it's alright

we learn operation sea lion has been

abandoned abandoned by the order of the

Fuhrer himself so I don't feel sorry to

attempt the invasion of England it's

definitely off supplies are already

being shifted eastward but to send it to

us the general staff thinks it's madness

they are right this is wonderful news

eggs this is the beginning of the end

it should bind Russian to the West for

all time I don't trust the bear as you

do I've seen the brute firsthand let's

get this news out at once more news for

you I've been appointed deputy chief of

supply for help I shall have an

important voice in all supply operations

I can bring the whole military machine

into chaos supplies will get lost all

they won't get there in time don't you

practice what you will do the best job

of military planning that you humanly

can after 25 years of this work you

ought to be able to remember that you're

not a supporter but the situation has

changed situation has not changed not

for you the secrets that you get such as

today may be of more value to the Allied

High Command than any service you can

perform for the German it could be so

easy for the mountains of question if

you are dismissed from your post for

some blunder you could be of no service

to your country at all no and the

Gestapo will be watching you more

carefully this aide of yours fellow

Rheinische he's undoubtedly a Gestapo

man himself so far as you are aware

has he any possible basis for being

suspicious of it no why should he

suspect me I'm the perfect Nazi

their report was of such a nature I'd

not conatus I thought they should

transmit it directly to you sit down

mother

well I'm listening to begin with sure

ever since I've been this training a

Shortland I've done some investigations

on my own and I've discovered that

Shortland is not his right name he was

born Alexander Scott

his parents were English and he was

educated at Oxford University your

information is incomplete he was born of

an English father and a German mother he

spent his childhood in South Africa he

attended Heidelberg as well as Oxford by

1914 he had germanized his name enlisted

in the German army and distinguished

himself as a gallant and loyal German

officer throughout the war but Sir and

then with such a background dual

nationalities are common even among our

national leaders Rudolf Hess was born

and raised in Egypt the Fuhrer himself

is an Austrian yes sir

a man cannot control the circumstances

of his birth but he can make a choice

general shortland made the right choice

if something would be the spy he would

return to England after the Armistice in

1918

instead he remained German and German

Evans a defeated nation and it was hard

to be a patriotic German your assignment

to general shot land is routine all

high-ranking officers are under

surveillance of this sort I don't want

to discourage of vigilance but it would

be well for you to exercise discretion

yes sir I am late for a staff meeting

general shufflin is one of the Rising

Stars of the Third Reich and has already

won the Fuhrer is favorable attention

I remember that sir good day gentlemen

satisfied the Fuhrer himself reshuffling

to the General Staff Corps apparently he

is satisfied general shock land is a

very clever man and unlike some of his

colleagues and the General Staff a model

National Socialism

a 100% that's what bothers me

he's too perfect he's a 101 percent

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

what do you think of it I don't know say

[Music]

I've a little quite what I'm looking for

[Music]

sorry give a chance please don't let me

disturb you continue as you know the

enemy's main effort appears to be in the

direction of Sun no the Seventh Army has

been unable to mount a counter-attack

enforced northeast of San lo because of

the critical supply situation enemy air

attack has demolished 90 percent of our

tactical quartermaster stores and areas

QV and why the petrol reserves of Panzer

group West have been completely

destroyed even the secret deposit the

mayor and the employer be wiped out by

pinpoint puppy how could this happen

that is the question before us general

merkel fuze we cannot lay the blame to

faulty camouflage right marker yes i

personally inspected all supply areas in

a low-flying plane if I hadn't known

where the dumps were I couldn't have

spotted them myself general has this

theory is that a well-organized french

underground is the cause of our trouble

intelligence has established that the

underground have been particularly

active in those areas very civilian

agents equipped with radio transmitters

which is probable they report the

position of our locations as soon as we

set them up yes there's no other

possible explanation we all agree yes

sir I do not any French civilians found

in areas Q and V would be shot on sight

they were all evacuated three months ago

furthermore decoy Depot's have been set

up in that area how is it then that

enemy aircraft bombed only the actual

depots and left the decoys untouched as

general Merkel says our Devils were so

carefully camouflaged at our own hair

spotters had difficulty in finding them

how is it then that the enemy were able

to score direct hits on every single one

of them

then what possibility do you suggest

general I suggest the enemy knew the

exact location of those depots I suggest

the possibility or the leak of

information at a very high level just

what do you mean at a very high level I

mean from the General Staff itself this

is preposterous sigh Oh leave general

traders often spring up in the most

preposterous places this is outrageous

what is your evidence general Shortland

you are my deputy

I refuse to permit you to make such

reckless charges in my presence without

the evidence to back them up evidence of

treason general Wagner does not come

neatly wrapped in packages I'm

suggesting a possibility

do not be evasive whom are you accusing

nobody in particular is yet but we all

know General Staff officers who disagree

with the Fuehrer's strategy who

maintained that we cannot

the wall defeatists who haven't the

courage to bring their views into the

open you've had their whispers we all

have I submit gentlemen that defeatism

is the doorway to high treason but to

defeat is together when you have a

conspiracy call that evidence in 15

years in my 15 years on the General

Staff Corps I've never heard of such a

responsible and malicious gossip from a

fellow officer with your permission

general Rutland I suggest that you leave

espionage to group leader Kelton bruna

in his secret service and address

yourself to your own duties in the

supply service abyssal title without

permission that is all gentlemen

[Music]

so no you want concrete evidence I don't

have it I suppose it was idiotic at the

otic rash perhaps but not idiotic when

you spoke of defeatist talk you

referring to moe

anyone else Colonel Heights yes I know

about him there are others as well

and he goes beyond talk as you suggest

is probably a conspiracy afoot I have

reason to believe the may be a plot

directed against the Fuhrer himself I

don't yet have all the links in the

chain but when I do

you probably won't be hearing any more

defeatist talk you're disloyal

colleagues burn trust you now

[Music]

HELOCs its cornice I must see you follow

me up I'll leave my door open if it's

safe

[Music]

it's ready

[Music]

I had to take the risk

they've arrested my Korea so do not go

to the shop until you hear from me from

now on

he says transmit your information myself

is that wise it is not wise but we have

to take some risk when can you get me

the information about the new supply

dumps in northern France I shall have

the overlays of the exact location of

the Devers within a week and Alex it is

very important that we should not have

any change in this strength or location

of German divisions on the French coast

since your last report we have a no

changes whatsoever

yes changes were contemplated and then

dropped now we have to plan on the

possibility of my being eliminated from

the scene if anything should happen to

me you will find your new contact in the

personal column of the Turkish mafia

there will be an item advertising the

sale of an Iran their egg it is one of

the oldest timepieces small enough to be

considered a watch of course I'd

forgotten what an expert you become you

will go to the address listed and you

will offer three thousand marks but it's

not mercenary as much as acting exactly

if the seller refuses your generous

offer and insists on a price of 90 marks

you will have found my replacement I

don't like this be careful it is you who

must be careful in it you are the

irreplaceable one the War Office may be

able to replace you I cannot

sentimentality for a muddle hit Lydia

nur I must be going

would you like a drink no

the nice collection of clocks you have

here some a haven't seen before

goodbye friends

[Music]

the latest operation report just arrived

shall I enter it on the map sir I'll do

it it's very late you get on home

have my car Sandra yes

[Music]

my car here

yes all right I shall need you anymore

tonight Dietz will drive home I'm afraid

that would be impossible sir

why did you say I've always thought

company yourself to Gestapo headquarters

naturally sir I don't know the details I

I heard some talk what sort of talk that

the old antique dealer cornets has been

arrested oh I can only assume sir that

since you patronized his shop the

Gestapo wants you for some routine

questioning it is considerate of you not

to assume that I myself there under

suspicion call his travel headquarters

tell him we're coming right over

tell me now

it's on me sooner or later so why not

spare yourself the agony

my friend general Shaak lentes here his

sake let's get it over with district

teller show contacts I can help you

[Music]

he's dead

you should've anticipated that do you

suspect everyone who patronized that

antique shop cornets had a half a dozen

officers of general rank among his

clients general vogner Marshall Goering

does that make during his five cornets

was found with top-secret documents in

his possession which could only have

come from the service of supply this

material could be available to at least

10 other generals besides myself what

was the connection between cornets and

the assassins the assassin would you

answer my question

will you plotters working for Allied

intelligence the plot against the Fuhrer

so you know go on I know nothing about

it except that I had my suspicions

indeed will it make it easier for you to

confess if I tell you that your plot has

failed I had a call from the Fuehrer's

field headquarters less than an hour ago

your bomb exploded according to schedule

several officers were killed but the

Fuhrer himself escaped without serious

injury I feel a safe I'm glad your

interest in the Fury's welfare is almost

convincing you accused me your hands are

not as clean as mine in this affair get

me captain Brunner on the phone I'll

talk to him about this in two no one

else

it'd be group leader Kelton Bruno please

on the other telephone group leader

Calton premier this is group leader

Miller speaking I have with me yes I am

listening

I have arrested three of the plotters

here Ralph Stauffenberg org reached on

clear Haim have you got that good you

will arrest general hauzer and Malcolm

immediately let Heights alone for the

moment could have him followed and see

where he leads us quartermaster general

Varga was involved but he saved us the

trouble by taking his own life there are

others in the service of supply who are

implicated yes sir I have just arrested

one of them myself

general shuttle and he's still denying

everything but I think we can get him to

talk before long goodbye sir

[Music]

issue orders for the arrest of generals

Hauser and Mecca at once

general Shapland

you are under arrest for treason and if

you think that your rank will spare you

from our more persuasive methods of

interrogation you're quite mistaken I

don't believe that was Calvin burner on

the phone at all that's enough

[Music]

Miller's you idiot did you say there's

you the Resta general shot on yes sir

shot land is one of the few men on the

staff who is absolutely in the clear he

sensed the existence of a pop almost as

soon as I did and what is more important

tell me about it

release him at once apologize and make

it convincing

general chuckling you're free to go

there has been some mistake I hope you

will accept my apologies for the rule

treatment to which you've been subjected

you understand that such methods are

often necessary if we're to track down

the real traitors don't apologize mother

you were only doing your duty thank you

sir everyone must serve the fatherland

in his own way even occasional half-wit

[Music]

is

[Music]

excellence you advertise the Nuremburg

egg for sale at Muhlenberg egg

Joran bird egg nerd right yes sir

of course it is not in working order but

as an antique very nice I'm willing to

pay up to see thousand marks for the

right work three thousand marks it's

yours for three thousand marks I'm even

willing to put it in working order for

you

never mind it's not the one I'm looking

for

[Music]

general this is indeed a surprise there

must be some mistake the resident said

97 marburg's faster

this is 97 Marburg Lassa won't you come

in general I'm sorry I don't wish to

inconvenience you the newspaper must be

an error I was interested in an NT that

was advertised

I knew him by gag that's correct

the advertisement made no mention of

price the general should know more about

it than I how much would you offer well

I'm looking for something special for

the right one I'm willing to pay up to

3,000 marks that seems to be a great

deal of money for a watch that doesn't

even keep time well what do you think

it's worth oh it shows you really how

little I know I was willing to sell it

for 90 marks oh that price is a bargain

but I'm afraid it isn't exactly what I'm

looking for if you will excuse the

intrusion captain I would like to sell

it

I'm sorry it isn't exactly what you want

sir - good day

[Music]

come

you ordered me to report my return sir

yes

how the reports immediately if it's not

a staff meeting Desson quite a

coincidence meeting you yes that's all

yes

[Music]

may have your coat you did say 90 marks

yes and you did say 3000 marks

unbelievable

do you have anything to drink yes both

can use one soda please

remember that evening when you took with

your house after the dance you seemed

kind of attracted to I was you behaved

so strangely I couldn't understand it

and I was annoyed at my failure to

develop a possible source of information

it's amusing now but at the time it

wasn't hiding the smallest personal

feelings for fear of betrayal I feel

released from an emotional straitjacket

you don't know what this means to me

with you I can no you cannot with me you

must be as in person as though you were

with the general stuff our dealings must

be professional objectives anything else

would endanger our work and ourselves no

quite right

is it you who receives my orders from

London

yes oh it's a shortwave receiver you can

be shot for having that I can be shot

for almost anything I do if I'm caught

how do you transmit my information I

have a method I'll explain what it is

as your friend card ads would have said

when you need to know it

I will marry of course we will find a

color some excuse for meeting each other

regularly let the Gestapo think we're

having a love affair the facts must be

otherwise

please of course well captain Ronnie's

complicate matters no I don't think

you'd be a problem at all good we must

arrange a plan so that we don't carry

incriminating documents around with us

I'll come to your place any time you

want me to and spend a night

the general is expecting me I know

Mia these days bargains are hard to find

he made me a very good offer I couldn't

turn it down it seems you've both found

what you were looking for does that

surprise you not really I should have

expected it I was born to be a generals

aide the generals waiting

Lily anything else I can do sir no

nothing else tonight very good sir you

told me it was important

you have underestimated captain

Rheinische is a bigger problem than you

thought

no he's just jealous and proud he thinks

he's in love with me he's also a Gestapo

agent what would you do about it

he must be disposed of effectively and

positively there's only one way come

into my bedroom please

what is it yeah

open it and you'll find out oh it's

lovely and I saw it I thought it was

made for you I don't know what to say

and don't say anything do you call that

a kiss that's better

much better I don't know what to say

don't say anything do you call that a

kiss that's better much after tonight

nothing fascinating tell me is this the

work of an agent of the Secret Service

sort of a peeping tom I'm sorry sir I

should have played it before taking the

time thing isn't even passionate much

less incriminating captain Lana she's

nothing to me

he's just an amusing young boy that's

all right

if another one of your hunches backfires

it'll be your head not his weight please

[Music]

counter offensive counter offensive and

then sector December 15 is too long I'll

have to cut towards continent sector I'm

sorry but we must get that information

back this is going to be a major push if

von Rundstedt breaks through it could be

a major disaster do you know anything

about harmonics no then you wouldn't

understand I can't get all this into one

song this method of transmitting

information is too limited you must get

that message through

[Music]

[Music]

I'm getting trolled my broadcast

tomorrow night

I won't be seen for a couple of weeks

why I leave for the front the day after

tomorrow for conferences with von

Rundstedt about the supplies for this

offensive take care of yourself I should

be listening to your broadcast by night

today the 21st of October 1944 the

futile uprising in Warsaw was brought to

an end our positions there remain secure

for all time and that is the end of the

news for the night I'll hit this hour of

song is dedicated to our armed forces

wherever they may be a regular soloist

on this broadcast Fraulein Lily Barone

it will not be with us this evening

but in her place Radio Berlin takes

pleasure in presenting Emmy Koerner

whose inimitable style has already made

her a favorite song stress of the German

soldier

[Music]

wait for me here yes sir

[Music]

you shouldn't have come here I don't

know I was taken off there at the last

moment any reason given no gustaba no

sign of them I don't understand I must

be suspect there's no other good reason

my singing has never been so popular

with the troops as it is now Alex you

must leave at once until I find out

what's behind us Alex I can protect you

Alex don't you see what's happening

we've been caught my emotions and

personal feelings our emotions sinful

our personal feelings of crime yes for

us they are

I just shrug when the Gestapo arrest you

I'm only question you if it happens yes

what I won't if they found out about me

there's nothing you can do if they

haven't there's nothing we have to do

your radio we must dispose of that if

they come for evidence the radio will

matter the least don't think of me think

of a way of getting that message through

I have to go to the front tomorrow I'll

have a chance then how I'll pick up a

field transmitter I should be near the

front lines

I'll slip away by myself and transmit

the message but there'll be German money

to surround the area they'll track you

down

not if I work fast enough there must be

some other way can you think of one no

but we will say goodbye without emotion

without personal feelings and if we're

lucky we'll see each other again and

there'll be another parting an emotional

and impersonal

[Music]

attention attention Allied forces allied

forces attention attention Allied forces

attention we lay the following

information to your headquarters this is

code sir would you explain to me what

you are doing

corporal is it your habit to question

general officer no sir but the

circumstances are unusual if the general

will please identify himself

of course I'm general rid Meister

I mean identification papers sir

[Music]

may I see your papers sir they're my

briefcase I'll get stay where you are

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

it's corporal Italian he's still alive

[Music]

and I remember exactly exactly what he

said when they brought him in something

was a radio transmitter and a German

General shooting him

I was incoherent how'd you give him an

injection or something to bring him to

he's in a coma major you'll have to wait

how long the bullets lodged in his spine

could be a day week a month she lives

and answered the door I thought to stop

her

why worried about you Alex I've missed

you so

I failed a patrol surprise me in the

woods when I was sending out the message

did they see what you were doing it

doesn't matter I kill them all of them

yes are you sure yes have they given you

any reason yet for taking you off the

air your official reason is that my

singing was too sad it's sentimental for

the troops long as dr. Goebbels

considers himself an authority on the

entertainment world maybe that is the

reason no if that were true that also

banned my records I'm afraid they figure

out my code and now are waiting waiting

for me to lead them to other agents

that's why after tonight I know what

you're gonna say Lily but it doesn't

make sense we've established ourselves

in everybody's eyes as lovers to

suddenly stop seeing each other now

would be too suspicious hi

open it

I'm sorry to disturb you at this hour

but the matter is urgent this is Jenna's

shuttle and there's your papers general

captain is general shufflin I've seen

you many times a day enacted quota sir

thank you maybe speak with you alone yes

of course you will excuse us general

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

you understand we shall check on your

statements if they are inaccurate you

will find that I've told you the truth

were you leaving - general please stay a

while Alex the gentlemen are through

with their business what do they want

ambitious little Nazi stepped on the

toes of a big Nazi and now he's wanted

for defeatism who is he

the Berlin radio censor they can't find

him they're checking everyone who knew

him I haven't seen me in months is that

all they asked you about that's all

maybe they're not on my trail at all

yeah then all we need to worry about is

how to transmit your information I don't

know ever way of getting it through

there's only one thing to do

what's that Corner's news to argue

against it but now there's no other

choice

I must work out a method of sabotaging

the Ardenne offensive destroy their

armies and we will drive them into the

sea I wish to congratulate this girl

this operation will be an answer and a

sharp lesson to those of little faith I

have just returned from Marshall von

Rundstedt headquarters the Marshall has

posed certain supply problems he

requests that the forces committed under

him be provided with 10 days supplies we

must consider whether such a diversion

of material would not jeopardize us in

the event of a winter offensive by the

enemy on the Eastern Front

what does quartermaster general top I

have to say about that it's true that

what is the scientist on understand

cannot ascend to the Eastern Front but

fuel is crucial both in the West and in

the east doesn't anyone have a definite

idea my Fuhrer the argenta ffensive is

based on quick penetration if the muscle

is stormed for lack of supplies

it will failed Marshall von Rundstedt

asked for 10 days supplies his estimate

cannot be questioned any commanders

estimate can be questioned they always

ask for more than they need we'll be

able to use captured enemy stores as we

advance brilliant the Fuhrer has

provided the solution with the enemy

supply dumps falling into our hands this

campaign can be operated with three days

surprise instead of ten the Americans

have vast fuel depots in the Bastogne

area that we know given a quick

penetration we can capture those depots

in Texas I know there will be objections

from textbook strategists and from those

who cannot find the word or death City

and their dusty manuals I do believe

they will be wrong does anyone here have

an objection

[Music]

it is not confirmed that the forces

under general Montgomery have broken von

Rundstedt strive to the sea they have

taken the initiative and will soon be

entering the heart of Germany von

launched its inability to hold his newly

won positions in the ar-10 comes as

something of a surprise in the south

General Patton's Third Army is attacking

von Rundstedt flank and is quickly

moving towards the Siegfried line and

Hitler's stronghold at practice garden

while Muenster has run out of fuel

radio we enjoyed your singing very much

so your public have not forgotten you

singing and how much they miss me a few

letter from no less than a general

general he particularly enjoyed the

external something I added to my song

patriotic German citizen yes of course

what do you mean

smile we may be watched unless the

Allies get definite information that

Hitler will fight it out in Berlin they

led for Becca's god I still can

understand now you should volunteers who

entertain on the Western Front sing to

the frontline troops with the

information to the Allies personally

with my rank to get us so far

across the airline but getting back it

would be more difficult wanted I come

London are we hanging with you to help

you cross a line I'm still under orders
