This question has been discussed in several WW2 Forums and the concensus is No, he was not the same German. Reasons to think he was the same man is due to the fact that they look the same and have the same short hair cut and the American translator shoots him at the end of the last battle. However, many German soldiers had short hair cut and would have looked the same. I think one movie fan noticed a difference of uniform between the German PW and the German who had the knife fight. Also, you will notice that the German PW was beaten before he was blind-folded and was bleeding from at least 2 places on his head. The 2nd German was not bleeding except from the hand-to-hand fight, which left a bloody ear. I think the reason he was shot at the end was because this was the German who shot Capt. Miller. Answer is No.

∙ 12y agoNo it is not the same guy, the prisoner they let go is a regular soldier, he is the one at the bridge that shots the captain and then gets killed by the American that jumps up behind them, but the guy that stabs the Jewish American soldier is an SS soldier, and if you look at pictures from the two you will tell right away it isn't the same guy.
