Saving Private Ryan.

Yes, I know, we’ve talked about this film endlessly in the past, but, I have a question, so please bear with me…

One of the most horrifying scenes in the film, for me at least, is the one where the two German and American soldiers are fighting hand to hand in the building. You can see what is coming yet somehow you are still unwilling to believe it. The drawn out tension of those moments is agonising to say the least. Now, my question is, can any of you German speakers please translate what the German infantryman is saying in those last agonising moments? From the meter of the speech and the tone, it almost sounds like words of consolation or apology.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
