[August 22(still), Potsdam palace, Berlin]
KW: Can you guys never do anything right?
Construction workers: Sorry!
KW: Oh, god...
KW: What´s this?! The bicycle regiment on parade?
Von Ludendorff: That is correct, sir
KW: They look strangely civilian...
VL: That is so that they can infiltrate the enemy lines without beeing suspected, no one will suspect a gang of bicyclers bicycling in no mans land, doging barbed wire, gas and mines as they go.
KW: Very good, carry on!
VL: Yes, sir!
Von Hindenburg: Pardon me sir, but I have an idea.
KW: And that is? My dear Paul von Beneckendorff und von Hindenburg.
VH: man, that is a long name I´ve got there, sir.
KW: Just tell me what you were thinking!
VH: Well, since I plan to become president of the Weimar republic between 1925 and 1933, it is just as well that we prepare to be defeated, it is in the best interest of the nation and in the interest of some idiot with a funny moustache, that we prepare o be defeated.
KW: Eh?
VH: Never mind, what I am saying is: we will have to have conditions of defeat!
KW: Very well, bring me a scotch on the rocks and carry on with whatever you wanted.
VH: yes sir, immediately sir!
KW: Bah, idiot with a funny moustache? Bet he will be a weak ruler who cannot even defeat France....................
