The 08/15 is a 1954-1955 West German film trilogy directed by Paul May and based on the novel 08/15 by Hans Hellmut Kirst who also served as the film's screenwriter. The term 08/15 (nill-eight/fifteen, German: Null-Acht/Fünfzehn) refers to the German Army's standard machine gun, the 08/15 (or MG 08 model 15), by far, the most common German machine gun deployed in World War I. It was manufactured in such large quantities that it became the German Army slang for anything standard issue. The film follows the story of one Private Asch, a German soldier in World War II. The title implies that Asch and the soldiers under his command were unostentatious characters of the war on the Eastern Front

No subtitled versions available AFAIK.

It's a shame because parts 1 and 2 are quite good. Part 3 is awful - German actors doing toe-curling impressions of American GIs :lol:

I stand corrected.

I was mislead by your initial post that said "I havent heard of this movie"
