[THE UNCONFIRMED AND UNCOUNTED]

-We don’t know exactly what the team did with the other two Germans when they stole the truck on the road. Either they killed them or left them tied up. It’s impossible to say.
-It honestly looks like the second guard at the roadblock was only knocked out by Andrea, and he could’ve survived the short fall off the bridge.
-Hundreds more Germans were in the gun cave and surrounding fortress when it exploded but I only counted the ones visible before or during the actual explosion.

[THE FINAL TALLY = 90]
