[last lines]
[the Hitler Youth boys march in formation] Narrator: Marching and heiling, heiling and marching, Hans grows up. In him is planted no seed of hope, laughter, tolerance or mercy. [the boys morph into teenage brown-shirts] Narrator: For him, only marching and heiling, heiling and marching as the years grind on. [the brown-shirts become armed German soldiers] Narrator: Manhood finds him still heiling and marching. But the grim years of regimentation have done their work; now he's a good Nazi. He sees nothing but what the party wants him to see, he says nothing but what the party wants him to say, and he does no more than the party wants him to do. And so, he marches on with his millions of comrades, trampling on the rights of others... for now his education is complete. His education... for death.
