Trivia
Although Achim Strietzel is mentioned in some official sources as the actor who played Rekrut Ladiges here (even the German DVD version does so), this isn't correct. The role was actually played by Wolfgang Gruner. Both actors were members of the Berlin theatre company 'Die Stachelschweine'.
