In the early part of the movie, "Enemy at the Gates", there is a wrecked German twin engine plane in the street. Name the aircraft.

Heinkel He-111 bomber, though it's much smaller than the real ones; similar to the destroyed T-34 at the railway station, with a 1944 turret in 1942…

I guess you guys need a few hints:
It was not a fighter, bomber or recon aircraft.
It had two Argus 360hp engines.
It was produced after the war by France by SNCAC
It was tried as a Nachtschlachtstaffle on the Eastern Front by at least one unit with racks for small bombs and rocket launchers beneath the fuselage and wings in 1944.
It was also produced by Aero of Czechoslovakia after the war.

Siebel Si 204  .....ok, without the hint, it would have been a difficult one.
but it seems that only the 204 A had the 360hp engines, the 204 D,which is the one similar to the He 111, had 2x600ps Argus AS 411 engines.

Correct. The one used in the movie is probably a wrecked Aero but who knows.
Here are some pictures of a French version.

Thanks Stahlberg! A little late response from me, but here goes.
What was Captain William J. Blazkowicz's weapon of choice?
An obscure question for sure, but do you know the answer?

He did use both a pistol and a knife, but that's not it. This weapon would literally make his eyes light up with glee.

I think Otto may have it as i used to love press I+L+M and get that gun.
But if you are talking about the new one RTCW it would have to be the panzerfaust.

I knew my younger days of playing computer games would come in handy eventually!
And now for the question....
In what WWII related autobiographical book does the author describe a time he had to endure an attack from a simian that ate a part of a crutch he was using at the time?
I know it's vague, but it is a very well known book. I'll give a hint in a day or so.
