The Wehrmacht & the Holy Grail

Watch this excellent movie and listen to what is being said in the song:
YouTube - WW2 German Soldiers and the Holy Grail

Like the discription reads:

"Woke up this morning from the strangest dream I was in the biggest army the world has ever seen, we were marching as one on the road to the Holy Grail."

The Holy Grail, what is it? Is it a physical object? Is it material wealth or riches? Is it a higher sense of being? Is it a road to somewhere? Or is it just a dream that never comes true? The German army marched on this one belief they marched the road to their own version of the Holy Grail. What they were searching for they never found.
My film looks at the sadness and despair as early German victories turn into failures. The German soldier's neo-medieval crusade ends with their puppet strings attached to one ruthless mad mans dreams, his HOLY GRAIL.
All war is sorrow and the winners tell it their way.....I tell it mine.
