>Was it to draw a parallel between German soldiers and modern day skinhead punks?

Actually, very likely that.

Not all of them were bald

Maybe at war its more of a convenience to have a shaved head

Also probably because it's easier to recognize who's getting shot from where for the dumbos in the audience.

This honestly ruined the movie for me once I learned about it. Ironically, it makes the German soldiers look more like concentration camp prisoners than skinheads. There are also lots of other subtle details in the film used to dehumanize the German soldiers. For instance, whenever an American soldier is shot, they cry out in agony. Whenever a German soldier is shot, they just silently fall to the ground. The original script also contained several instances of scenes included specifically to humanize the Germans, all of which were removed in the final filmed version. For instance, there was a brief scene where a German machine gunner hugs his dog before telling it to run away so it won't be killed in the fighting. After the dog runs off, the man returns to his machine gun position and opens fire on a group of American soldiers who are closing in from a distance.

We're been doing things like this in movies for around 70 years. Did you just never notice before Saving Private Ryan or did you just recently become a /pol/-nazi so cared?

Yes, American war movies portray war in an unrealistic way while making Americans look better than their opponents. Call the fucking news, faggot.
