[THE UNCONFIRMED AND UNCOUNTED]

-I didn’t include the scores of people seen killed in reused footage showing the destruction of the gun cave during the recap at the beginning.
-Due to the low-budget model work there are no people visible on the bridge when it collapses; thus we have to assume all the surviving Germans got off of it in time.
