Sorry.

Hey, look, Max...

You and us, we're just soldiers, right?

We don't even know

what this war's all about.

All we do is we fight and we die.

And for what?

We don't get anything out of it.

In about half an hour, the American Army's

going to be coming down that road.

Why don't you do yourself a big fat favor

and get the hell out of here?

I have orders.

This bank isn't to fall in the hands

of the American Army.

This bank's not gonna fall into the hands

of the American Army, but in our hands.

You see, we're just

a private enterprise operation.

You the American Army.

No, baby, we ain't.

You know what's inside that bank, man?

There's $16 million worth of gold

in that bank, sweetheart.

That's about 65 million marks.

And, Sergeant...

...all you have to do to have an equal share

of this money...

...is crank this turret around

and blow a hole in that door.

I told you!

No more payments.

You got it! Hit it!

Come on, Little Joe!

What are you going to do with yours?

Get me a new Hudson

with an electric shift.

I'm going to get me a ranch in Texas,

with about 10, 20, 35 women...

...and let it go.

I told you it'd work, I told you!

No, you never told me.

You never told me.

Come on, Babra, keep it moving.

One Cadillac coming up, Willard!

No, I'm getting a pickup truck.

Okay, Crapgame, we got our cut,

I'm moving out.

Right. Take it easy, kid.

See you, Big Joe!

Okay. Stay lucky, you nut!

See you, babe!

These are getting heavy.

- Buy you a lot of broads.

- I'll drink to that.

Come on, let's go. Move it out!

Come on, Babra, keep it moving!

We have small car full.

We go now.

You take care of yourself now.

Thank you.

Auf Wiedersehen.

See? What did I tell you?

Now look, Oddball. The trade

for the uniforms I can understand.

But to buy this tank, you got to be crazy!

It's a mother, beautiful tank!

It's a piece of junk.

The fuel system leaks all over the place!

It's a piece of junk!

Always with the negative waves, Moriarty.

Always with the negative waves!

Crap!

The General's on the edge of town,

right this minute!

Okay, Gutkowski.

You go help with the gold.

What do you want?

After splitting with Oddball and

the Germans we should have 125 boxes.

At $8,400 a box...

...that's how much?

That's $10,500,000.

Correct!

Split 12 ways?

$875,000 each.

Very good, Fisher. You win a cookie.

Thanks.

Thank you very much.

I just wanted you to know

that we appreciate it very much. All of us.

The General's coming. Eisenhower!

- De Gaulle?

- Eisenhower.

That's right.

You don't understand.

De Gaulle! De Gaulle!

De Gaulle!

The General de Gaulle is coming.

Right now! De Gaulle!

De Gaulle! De Gaulle!

De Gaulle! De Gaulle!

Vive de Gaulle!

All right, keep it moving!

Come on, move it!

The cavalry's coming down the road!

Give us a hand.

- What are they saying, Maitland?

- They seem to think you're de Gaulle.

De Gaulle? He ain't even in this war.

Vive les Americains!

Victory!

We did it!

We got it! We did it!

We did it!
