"Jawohl hërr Kaleun" means "yes Captain (Kapitanleutnant)" as far as i know.

Yes Sir would be "Jawohl"(as it is an acknowledgment...a military acknowledgment?) but, i think it was standard in the german armed forces answer to the rank of the person giving the order.
I mean... a schutze would answer an oberleutnant by saying "jawohl hërr oberleutnant"

I think he needs audio tho.
