Background

Schwejk: beg to report Sir, I am an idiot

Bow to the authorities

The voice of the people

Tree of life

I love you!

The entire population is a bunch of malingerers

In three days you’ll be fit for field duty!

Just a little persuasion

The outpouring of the Holy Spirit

Shut up and do your duty

Please look friendly

The war did me a lot of good, like a spa

With heart and hand for the Fatherland

Soon again: the more cruel, the more human

For what?

We are born to obey
