Not particularly important, but the famous Remagen Bridge

In various WWII documentaries, the Remagen Bridge is mentioned on the Western Front. The only bridge on the Rhine that has not been solved will be mentioned. In fact, before the bridge was fully controlled, the Allies had already erected several pontoon bridges downstream. The English Channel could not resist the Allied forces, so what about a mere Rhine? And the Remagen Bridge finally collapsed a few days after it was captured. But after all, the Remagen Bridge is the only remaining bridge on the Rhine River. It is believed that the loss of this bridge has caused a further blow to the morale of the already collapsed German army.
This film was seen for the first time in 1995, just in time for 50 years after the end of World War II, and a large number of World War II films were broadcast on various local stations. Overall, this film feels similar to the tank battle. The American soldiers are all cynical, and the German soldiers are a little meticulous, even giving up. Other general. Another impressive thing is that the stills of this film were once published on the submachine gun album of a certain issue of Weapon Knowledge magazine in 1995, which became a historical photo.

The Bridge at Remagen quotes

  • Major Paul Kreuger: I understand the Russians are at the Elbe.

    Gen. von Brock: Yes.

    Major Paul Kreuger: And here?

    Gen. von Brock: Worse. Utter confusion. Every day I get orders to attack with divisions that no longer exist. Hitler still thinks he's winning the war.

    Major Paul Kreuger: The Army helped bring Hitler into power. Are you saying we made a mistake?

  • Major Barnes: Look, uh, Hartman, I know it's been a hard blow. It's always a shock to lose a buddy, a man you worked with and fought with. I mean, we're all human. I guess what I'm trying to say is... I realize Captain Colt was your friend. He was my friend, too.

    Lt. Phil Hartman: Bullshit.

    [Long pause]

    Major Barnes: Would you, uh... care to rephrase that, Lieutenant?

    Lt. Phil Hartman: You don't have any friends out here, Major. Neither do I. We can't afford them. Neither one of us.
