U poređenju sa vremenom koje je savezničkoj povorci trebalo da prođe Jelisejskim poljima, otprilike tri sata, izračunao sam da bi istom brzinom, vojničkim korakom, prolazak poginulih u ovom neoprostivom ludilu trajao 11 dana i 11 noći.
In comparison to the duration of the Allied Victory March down the Champs-Elysées, about three hours, I think, I calculated that given the same speed, step, and military formations, the march of those who died in this inexpiable madness would have lasted 11 days and 11 nights.
