Sergeant Thomas "Tom" Ramsey is the 47 year old somewhat gruff yet calm, regimented leader from Fort Worth, Texas. His accent is a low pitched, diminished yet still thick Texan accent with a certain southern hospitality. He can only speak English yet understands certain phrases in New Orleans French due to his father coming from that area. He has a 21 year old son named Collin Ramsey who is currently in basic training and a wife named Shelly Ramsey. He is seen as a father figure amongst the unit due to his age and his kind personality. He isn't afraid to kill anyone attacking his unit and is willing to sacrifice himself to help them. Thomas only swears while he is incredibly angry.
Private what have I told you about yelling! We are in enemy territory. If a soldier hears us we might be goners. Where is Brigadier Lawrence?
Freeze kraut!

Gefreiter Lars Schulz is the 21 year old timid soldier from Stuttgart, Germany. He has an extremely strong German accent and can only speak Germany for the first few episodes before learning some English from Jeremy and Doc. He can be seen as one of the more important characters in the series and also one of the most disturbed. By the seventh episode, he develops Stockholm syndrome and is visibly shown to have PTSD induced from the death of Klaus Himmler. He is shown at the start to be terrified of the other men in the group and often trips on his words making his German harder to understand.
Ja. Gleich um diese ecke
Es tut mir leid, aber das ist nicht richtig Deutsch. Gibt es jemanden weniger dumm, mit dem ich reden könnte?
