Getting rid of some of the British and rescuing Gertie but not touching Robert. After they observe silents for Klix Grave they all leave at the sunrise as they continue to fight the British. This had propaganda but it was light. Slightly anti British but the Robert character would give in to Gerdas pleads.This was a low budget feature. In spite of that it was very good picture made during the third Reich.
