I didn't know this at first but when I rewatched the opening scene I realized that this guy is Heinrich, the previous owner of Paul's uniform. People say Heinrich's name during this battle and then in the next scene you see uniforms being stripped off dead soldiers to be reused for the next batch of soldiers. When the seamstresses are fixing the uniforms to be reused you see the name tag "Heinrich". Paul notices the name tag when he picks up his uniform and goes to return it, knowing it belongs to someone else, but the guy who gives it to him lies and says that "It was probably too small for the fellow. Happens all the time." as he gives the uniform back to Paul. I love how this sequence ties into the whole movie because it shows that Heinrich IS Paul. Heinrich saw his friends die before his eyes and goes on to die himself. Paul inherits his uniform and the same things happen to him. All of these young soldiers are experiencing the same pointless horrors of war and death. The ending text further illustrates this monotony when it states that, "Shortly after the beginning of the war in October 1914, the Western front became bogged down in trench warfare. At the end of the war in November 1918, the front line had barely moved. More than three million soldiers died here, often while fighting to gain only a few hundred metres of ground. During the first world War, almost 17 million people lost their lives." Heinrich, Paul, and millions of others over the course of years experienced the same tragic fate here, all while the line barely budged.

It's interesting how Heinrich is in the middle fighting, then the scene suddenly ends and we never see him again. I think Heinrich died in that moment. We saw how his friend Hanz was shot in the head and dead in an instant. No time to react, nothing ceremonious about it, just a person who was alive one moment then suddenly the lights turn off forever. Heinrich was probably shot in the head or hit by a shell fragment and that was it for his story.

The “Hans….. Hans….?” Really made me shed a tear, he just witnessed someone die in front of him, can’t imagine losing someone like that.

I’m not a huge F Scott Fitzgerald fan, but in 1934 he wrote the most utterly magnificent single quote I’ve ever read about the First World War, explaining how men and countries and societies were able to do this video in real life for 4 merciless years. “This western-front business couldn’t be done again, not for a long time. The young men think they could do it but they couldn’t. They could fight the first Marne again but not this. This took religion and years of plenty and tremendous sureties and the exact relation that existed between the classes. The Russians and Italians weren’t any good on this front. You had to have a whole-souled sentimental equipment going back further than you could remember. You had to remember Christmas, and postcards of the Crown Prince and his fiancée, and little cafés in Valence and beer gardens in Unter den Linden and weddings at the mairie, and going to the Derby, and your grandfather’s whiskers. This kind of battle was invented by Lewis Carroll and Jules Verne and whoever wrote Undine, and country deacons bowling, and marraines in Marseilles and girls seduced in the back lanes of Wurtemburg and Westphalia. Why, this was a love battle - there was a century of middle-class love spent here.”

If you playback the speed and go to 2:04 you can see the French soldier shooting at Heinrich all the way to the left. He is crouched so you really have to look but I’m assuming he is the one who killed the kid.

Shows how much of a psycho Adolph Hitler was that he considered *THIS* to be the best time of his life.

I wish I could travel back to that time to collect those rifles from fallen soldiers and resell them on GB :P

The movie messed me up for a few days thinking of how they sent children to die. Such a fantastic film though.

It was an industrialized meat grinder. And we see that on this scene as we see the whole cycle, some ylung soldier dies, its uniform is recycled and then another young soldier gets in its place.

So if part of that line breaks then the human heard mentality kicks in and other turn and run too. Leading to even more death. But yea, officers can and did use charges in WW2 just like in WW1.
