Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis story is based upon the real 1944 Hitler assassination attempt. In July 1944, Colonel Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg carried a briefcase loaded with explosives into a staff meeting. The bomb went off, but Hitler was only injured because the heavy oak conference table shielded him from the blast. Von Stauffenberg was quickly arrested and then executed.
- GoofsWhen the briefcase is latched, the bomb is armed to detonate. After Schultz accidentally latches it, Hogan unlatches it just in time - but in the next shot, the briefcase is latched again.
