Sides of Conflict
"Sir, has Poland joined our cause?"
"No, Poland is being backed up by her allies. We did get land off of them, but now they're resisting. France is as well."
"Sir, what about Czechoslovakia? Have they joined us?"
"After we split their whole country in half, they are more willing to declare war on us."
"Sir, we should invade Poland. We still have time to prepare. It's 1937. Our generals have confirmed the action and have planned it to sometime in August, 1939."
"Good. That allows me to build up our forces. The Fatherland will be rebuilt and will set forth to conquer the world."
"Sir, when we get the chance, we need to focus our forces on France. They are on our doorstep, sir. We need to destroy them."
"Don't worry. We will destroy them. All we have to do is build up our forces and we will be feared once again."
"Sir-"
"Walter, please call me Adolf."
"Yes sir, Adolf."

"You fought in World War I?"
"I fought in Belgium and France. I joined when Germany was on the losing side."
"Well, we are entering war with Poland. You'll be part of it. This time we will win."

"I agree. One last question; Are you Jewish, gay, crippled, or mentally disabled?"
"No. I am a hundred percent German."
"Where were you born?"
"Berlin."
"Good. Well Alexander, you'll be deployed into Poland."
"Fucking Poles. When shall I head to Austria?"
"I'd do it right now."

"Oh Balto. You are so kind."
"Only for you babe."
