Given that most Germans had recently survived a grueling depression just before the war started (6 million unemployed) he didn't exactly enamour himself with the other officers.

Ah....so that's what that scene was about....what was the music that they had played right then, and how did it fit in?
I had noticed that in a couple of scenes, he was in the background reading to another crewmember, and it did sound a bit ....propagandish....
