Summary
The Major Returns to home base triumphantly despite Tubalcain's failure. The Colonel isn't very pleased that The Major has taken up the title Acting Generalissimo, and confrontation between the two Nazis reaches a head.

Synopsis
The Elderly heads of the surviving Nazi army wait for The Major's return, speaking of how he has taken for himself the title "Acting Generalissimo" and has become rather prideful. Upon his return, The Major is greeted by the entirety of the Letzte Bataillon, among which is Schrödinger, who asks how The Major's trip was. The Major states that Tubalcain was killed, something that does not surprise Schrödinger. The Werecat tells The Major that it would have been better if he had sent the Werewolves, stating that their job would have been cleaner. Schrödinger looks for some affirmation from The Captain, but the Captain shushes him with a cold stare.

The Major waves it off, saying that it is too unlike Schrödinger to be gloomy. It is then after that the Colonels appear and demand some answer from The Major on his actions and taking the title of Generalissimo. His answer boils down to "Kiss my ass, Colonel" which earns him a strike that sends him rolling. The Colonel begins to beat The Major senseless with his cane, demanding an answer on not only how he can take the title, but also why he won't turn them into vampires, displaying that he is jealous more than anything as he has grown old and the rest of the military is just as spry, if not more spry than they had been during the War. Suddenly, his cane is shot out from under him.

Zorin Blitz then comments that The Major was the one who formed the Last Battalion, and that the Colonel only appeared later. They said that while The Colonel has more stars, in the eyes of Millennium, he is but a freeloader. The Colonel asks what it is that The Major hopes to gain by commanding over 1000 vampires, and The Major responds that he is hoping to cause a never ending state of war for the sake of war to enjoy.
