Line 104:
* [[Gunship Rescue]]: The Race love their helicopters, but as time goes on they become more and more vulnerable to partisan rocket fire.
* [[Heel Realization]]: This happens to Panzer Commander of the Wehrmacht Heinrich Jäger when an old Jewish man shows him the bullet hole in his neck, and tells him the story of how he got it. Heinrich had heard the rumors before then, but he hadn't believed in them. The third book sums it up nicely:
{{quote| What Skorzeny didn't get and wouldn't get if he lived to be a hundred - not likely, considering how the SS man lived - was that ''what we were supposed to do'' and ''what our superiors ordered us to do'' weren't necessarily the same thing.<br />
Soldiers didn't commonly had to make that distinction. Jäger hadn't worried about it, not until he had found out how the Germans dealt with Jews in the east. Since the, he hadn't been able to look away. He knew what sort of disaster awaited the world if the [[Alien Invasion|Lizards]] won the war. Like Skorzeny, he was willing to do just about anything to keep that from happening. Unlike the SS man, he wasn't willing to believe that everything he did was fine and virtuous.<br />
That made for another subtle distinction, but he clung to it. }}
