Was that a Polish joke? (spoiler)

Anyone find it funny that even in a serious film involving Poland, there was a scene that could have been contrived as a Polish joke. [How did the Polish guy die at the end of WWII? He put on a Nazi jacket.] Granted Wladislav was Jewish, he did yell to the soldiers, "I'm Polish! I'm Polish!" You sure are! I am Polish by the way.

That bit's true, actually!
Also I'm half-Polish

I didnt think of that, but it's pretty funny

I know it's supposed to be a serious scene, but I always chuckle at:

"What's with the *beep* coat?"
