I like how his salute is less "seig heil!' and more "high five bro!"

If you pay attention to archival footage, you'll notice that Adolf Hitler never did the straight-forearm Nazi salute himself. That was always for others. Hitler gave a salute that looks more like a straight up-and-down wave, with open hand.

All of his shells fell a little to the Reich.
