1.) How did the scene when Madame distracted the Germans which allowed a Frenchman to get past the Germans illegally compare to the general idea of the movie?
The way the Frenchman was able to skill getting past German security is parallel to how the Allies were able to invade Normandy; at both times, the German's guards were down.
2.)Why did Richard Beymer never fire a shot during the war?
He never truly connected with the war cause, and did not see the point of killing other people. He was young, and did not understand the war.
3.) Why was Colonel Priller violently yelling at the other German Colonel on the phone?
Colonel Priller was angry because he knew that the Allies would attack them when they were at their weakest, and the situation for the Germans was terrible at the time, because they were lacking supplies and missing aircrafts. It was the perfect time for the Allies to invade Normandy, so they did.
4.) What was the significance of Reubert?
Reubert was a dummy with a parachute that was release from the air from Allied planes. The "Reuberts" were used to distract the Axis Powers, so they would shoot the dummies, while the actual Allied soldiers were on the ground mowing down the Axis.
5.) What was the meaning of the incident where Colonel Vandervoort used the rifle as a crutch?
He would not give up even though he had a broken ankle; this scene proved that the Allies were stubborn and were determined to win the war, no matter how much the Axis powers made them suffer previously.
