Quote context

[...]

- Achtung! Everybody at attention for the Geneva man!

- As you were, gentlemen. Please.

- Here we have a typical barrack. It houses 75 men. Every one of them has his own bunk, naturally.

- Naturally. It would be rather awkward to have three men in one bunk.

- As for the blankets, you will notice they're very warm. Fifty percent wool.

- They also smell of mothballs. When were they issued? This morning?

- What do you do for heat in this barrack? No stove.

- The men here used it as a trap door, so we had to remove it temporarily.

- How long is temporarily? I trust not until July.

- Here you see a typical meal the prisoners are getting.

- Schulz, what are we having today?

- Bean soup mit ham hocks. Would you like to taste it?

- Thank you, no.

- Where's the ham hock? There should be a ham hock!

- When you find it, we'll send it to Geneva.

- Are there any complaints? Please speak up. Don't be afraid to talk.
