Cross of Iron

January 1977 •English

It is 1943, and the German army—ravaged and demoralised—is hastily retreating from the Russian front.

However, within his pompous persona lies a quivering coward who longs for the Iron Cross so that he can return to Berlin a hero. Steiner, on the other hand is cynical, defiantly non-conformist and more concerned with the safety of his own men rather than the horde of military decorations offered to him by his superiors.
