It was a pretty decent short! But tactical study is a must. When walking in a formation like thru the Forest on the dirt path. the weapons should be pointed outward. Always have 5 meters between bodies and always step lightly, never shuffle feet. Stick to the treeline and not out in the plain open.

Overall enjoyable. Just a few minor quips. Why wasn’t the BAR firing full auto. The model issued in WW2 had fast auto fire and slow auto fire. In the field soldiers did away with the bipod to shave weight and because it was at odds with the weapon’s purpose of walking fire. The approach to the objective was a little amateurish. But cinematography was excellent. Acting was great especially assuming these folks aren’t pros. Uniforms were outstanding too. It passed so quick it didn’t seem like 20 minutes. A solid 4/5.

The low stone wall where Johnson ended up, I think they should have deployed behind it for cover not in front of it out in the open. The Hollywood 'stay with me, stay awake, don't you dare die' trope was not the way people spoke back during the ww2 era, perhaps watch some movies made around that time to get a better feel. One of the most memorable casualty lines was from a war film was 'Too Late the Hero' when one of a British patrol trod on a mine and was blown to pieces, actor Michael Cain commented with perfect sardonic delivery "I suppose you could say... that private Smith has us surrounded". Good effort.

The main problem I have with this video is the visibility of the enemy. In all cases, soldiers will present a small or invisible target. If you are visible to the enemy, you will be shot. Always use cover and the lay of the land to obscure your movements and positions. Once you have fired your weapon a few rounds, move to a new position, if only by a few feet. Create uncertainty for the enemy. Stealth is a soldier's friend. In this video, soldiers present themselves as highly visible targets. In reality, both sides played an intense game of hide-and-seek-and-destroy. A structure is bait. A house or a barn is merely a lure to draw attention and fire. An MG position may also be bait. Any time a weapon is fired, a position is revealed. Firing it may serve to draw attention. If you don't think that the enemy hasn't anticipated your every move, you aren't thinking. If you aren't thinking, you're dying.

Just some tips: 1. Study real tactics. A lone MG in the middle of nowhere is not believable. Standing up on a ridge above a destroyed MG nest and waving without checking the surroundings is suicide. Talking can be done without standing up, in cover. Approaching a reported enemy position unsupported through open ground on the side with almost certain MGs and snipers is what would have gotten Johnson (and everyone) killed, not his standing up and getting even more exposed. All these scenes can take place in a bush while still allowing a nice camera shot through the bush. 2. Fresh recruits are fresh recruits but they have recieved basic training, which is more than the people representing them have - no need for additional greenness. Always look like you know what you're doing. Practice often and in the period-correct way. 3. If the M1 feels too heavy for your left arm, it's because it is. That's what the strap is for. And physical fitness.

Only soldier apparently has a grenade? In previous episodes , I have seen a caption leading a platoon ? There uniforms appear brand new. But it is a very good episode. MY father fought in Europa. He very ever spoke of it. He mentioned once spoke of it. He said that the German soldiers were very good. For the betterment of mankind No more. WAR😐✌

at 14:19 one of the German soldier fires his KAR98 with the bolt handle open...in real life that could of gone 2 ways
The Thompson was an open bolt fired weapon, when he reloaded after taking out the nest, he should have pulled the charging handle to the rear only.

The Thompson bolt remains to the rear at end of firing unless you shoot till empty a drum mag. Then will it close. Stick mag=open after last shot, mag empty or not. This being an M1 Thompson, it's stick mags only.
Excellent work all around! Congratulations.
14:20 when the girlfriend insists on being cast
Overall enjoyable. Just a few minor quips. Why wasn’t the BAR firing full auto. The model issued in WW2 had fast auto fire and slow auto fire. In the field soldiers did away with the bipod to shave weight and because it was at odds with the weapon’s purpose of walking fire. The approach to the objective was a little amateurish. But cinematography was excellent. Acting was great especially assuming these folks aren’t pros. Uniforms were outstanding too. It passed so quick it didn’t seem like 20 minutes. A solid 4/5.
good job :) Greetings from Germany

The low stone wall where Johnson ended up, I think they should have deployed behind it for cover not in front of it out in the open. The Hollywood 'stay with me, stay awake, don't you dare die' trope was not the way people spoke back during the ww2 era, perhaps watch some movies made around that time to get a better feel. One of the most memorable casualty lines was from a war film was 'Too Late the Hero' when one of a British patrol trod on a mine and was blown to pieces, actor Michael Cain commented with perfect sardonic delivery "I suppose you could say... that private Smith has us surrounded". Good effort.

The main problem I have with this video is the visibility of the enemy. In all cases, soldiers will present a small or invisible target. If you are visible to the enemy, you will be shot. Always use cover and the lay of the land to obscure your movements and positions. Once you have fired your weapon a few rounds, move to a new position, if only by a few feet. Create uncertainty for the enemy. Stealth is a soldier's friend. In this video, soldiers present themselves as highly visible targets. In reality, both sides played an intense game of hide-and-seek-and-destroy. A structure is bait. A house or a barn is merely a lure to draw attention and fire. An MG position may also be bait. Any time a weapon is fired, a position is revealed. Firing it may serve to draw attention. If you don't think that the enemy hasn't anticipated your every move, you aren't thinking. If you aren't thinking, you're dying.

Absolutely awesome great short film
Just some tips: 1. Study real tactics. A lone MG in the middle of nowhere is not believable. Standing up on a ridge above a destroyed MG nest and waving without checking the surroundings is suicide. Talking can be done without standing up, in cover. Approaching a reported enemy position unsupported through open ground on the side with almost certain MGs and snipers is what would have gotten Johnson (and everyone) killed, not his standing up and getting even more exposed. All these scenes can take place in a bush while still allowing a nice camera shot through the bush. 2. Fresh recruits are fresh recruits but they have recieved basic training, which is more than the people representing them have - no need for additional greenness. Always look like you know what you're doing. Practice often and in the period-correct way. 3. If the M1 feels too heavy for your left arm, it's because it is. That's what the strap is for. And physical fitness.
1:56 it would have made more sense to have that old fella be the squad lead, since, ya know, He looks like He may have served in the 1st world war...
this is an amazing film it's really quite something.

Damn I never knew that the dry cleaning service delivered freshly pressed brand spanking new uniforms front line soldiers who been fighting for a number of days already. Yeah action sequences were not well choreographed and the discussions felt like the troops were talking to one another but practising their lines for a play and it’s much more improvement

Or bunching up like that, or talking instead of looking for enemies, or stopping for a break in the woods without posting lookouts, or anouncing your presence by shouting at each other, or standing over an enemy position while your squad is shooting at it, or grouping around said position without cover for a very relaxed break instead of peparing for a counter attack, etc. Too American for me.

Not to be a prick here but... there should be 5 more soldiers in the US squad: 4 rifleman 2 of which are B.A.R ammo carriers and 2 or so grenadiers, and a B.A.R operator. The Corporal shouldn’t be carrying a B.A.R he’s an assistant squad leader. Overall their squad should have 12 men: 9 riflemen carrying various equipment, 1 Sergeant, 1 assistant squad leader, and 1 B.A.R operator. Also that private who got sniped was just..... unbelievably stupid; no sense of self preservation. Also why not just throw the grenade before....
