Jaeger, you might be interested to know that Robert Mitchum said that line: "Right Here German." But the reason why im even mentioning it, is because the Robert Mitchum character in the War Movie: "The Story of G.I. Joe" was an Infantry Lieutenant and he and one of his Sergeants were trying to ""smoke out"" the German snipers hiding in the rubble of some Italian village (the rubble happened to be the real stuff as this movie was filmed in war-torn Italy, while the war was still raging on) anyway, Mitchums character in this movie tried to get the German's attention by calling him some insulting names to which the German also replied. I think it went something like this:

"Hey German Schweinhund!" the German's reply: "Amerikanisch Schweinhund!" This of course was shortly before they blasted this German to Valhalla's Halls. Anyway, I thought it was funny that Mitchum had these similar lines in scenes that were similar in two movies made decades apart.
