@soeinscheiss11 The bofor ack-ack guns were british.

The 88s wouldve kicked US ass in that position. What city did they destroy in the making of this movie?

There was a battery of Flakvierling guns on that hill, but the day before the attack it was moved to Koblenz. Hauptmann Bratge was informed about this only in the next morning, the day of the attack. He ordered an AA-battery retreating across the bridge to obtain position on the hill, but due to the mess all around his order was not executed. 3 times bad luck!

But when the GI's reached the east side they also had to storm the "flak hill" because meanwhile one (!) 2cm-flak had been placed there.

Those are m24 tanks they were just in ww2 in 1945, so this is accurate for the movie. m24 are light tanks and very fast. But the main battletank was the Sherman. They also used m26 Pershing tanks with 90 mm gun.

Why is it that there is always some politician who thinks war is so great?

Heil (S)Hitler!

[lotrhalo]

I am really doubting the way that these tanks were used....

[dustingronemann101]

those 88's woulda torn those american tanks to shreds in seconds.

[mobilechief]

@dustingronemann101 I was just thinking that, I had a uncle who commanded a US tank and believe me he would not have lined up under 88s like that.

[mindlessprimitive]

it wooda been better if those tanks wer shermans, but oh well. cant getem all.

[SuperChuckRaney]

so in this scene the Germans are hastily putting up charges to delay the americans "blowing up the Bridge" so why not just shell your own bridge and be done?

[daystate12345678]

@SuperChuckRaney - they had to wait until as many germans had crossed over before they could blow it. - have you wanted the other parts???????
