Whoever wrote this film's script was too confused. As the one who directed it.
I can only guess the movie wanted to show the brutality of war.
In theory.
Cause after they put all the anti-war cliches in the blender, they came up with something that made no sense and it was completely unrealistic. Like the laughable finale of a mindless video game carnage.
But, I think, deep inside this film was an homage to Star Wars. Apart from overusing the colored tracer rounds, all the German soldiers, even the elite ones, were easier targets than SW Stormtroopers. Or maybe the ignorant writers did actually confuse the sci-fi Stormtroopers with the actual German Stormtroopers from WWI.
There were a few daring moments, like showing the American soldiers as rapists or not respecting the POWs rights and shooting in cold blood white flag carriers, but at the end all was lost when the same soldiers were fighting like if they were Wild West drunk Cowboys storming saloons.
