Interesting note : L.G.Buchheim didnt´t like it. He blame Petersen for the Party-scene at the Beginning of the film also for the Kpt´s permanent complaining about the Leadership.
Heinrich Lehman-Willenbrock surely wasn´t a Nazi but he never was so angry about the BdU and others like in that film.

Petersen´s statement later was, that he wanted to make an Anti-War-film and so he replaced Willenbrock with "Der Alte". This person was fiction.
