Gen. Von Sturmer:
Why? How could it happen? Another hundred meters and the Americans would have captured the Ober Kassel Bridge.

Gen. von Brock:
It was the only escape route for our units in that sector.

Gen. Von Sturmer:
Escape route? No. A highway for the American army into the heart of Germany! In any case, the Führer has determined you shall not take such a risk again.

Gen. von Brock:
Not very likely: there's only one bridge left.

Gen. Von Sturmer:
And already it is threatened by the American forces. One breakthrough, a few hours, and this too can be lost. General von Brock, you must prepare to destroy the Remagen bridge at the earliest possible moment.

Gen. von Brock:
Destroy? We have 75,000 men who would be trapped on the other side of the Rhine.

Gen. Von Sturmer:
And if the bridge falls to the enemy, are you prepared for the consequences?

Gen. von Brock:
These men are all that's left of the 15th Army. Their only hope of salvation is that bridge!

Gen. Von Sturmer:
The 15th Army will stand or die. Hitler has ordered that not one foot of our sacred soil will be yielded to the enemy.

Gen. von Brock:
