How about Ed Harris in " Enemy at the Gates "? Its even a East Front movie.







There are some nice screen captures to be had from that movie,thanks for the reminder. Wish they would have followed a Russian rifle or smg squad and not done the sniper scenario.

He owned a Mosin-Nagant, K98 and Luger 08, and we spent the day by trying to hit targets on 50m (pistol) and 150m (rifle). In comparison to the SSG 69 I normally used back then, the ricol of those old carbines was brutal, in particular the Russian rifle. I wonder how anyone actually could hit targets on long ranges with these guns.

Or how about the US actor (darn poor memory - the guy with Jane Fonda in that cowboy movie where his lazy horse was leaning on the barn and he kept saying "I'll drink to that!") in the war movie where at the end he stabbed a surrendering German soldier not knowing that the war was over? He was also in "The Dirty Dozen".

He was a actual WWII vet as well, combat and all.

I do have to agree tho, Vic Morrow face is definitely chisled for a war vet look. Too bad he had to die so horribly.

Status: offline 		Perhaps you are right...but to be honest; dying by 'Over Mousing' vs 'Big O'le Chopper Blade'; I'll take the mouse click of death everytime.  My wife has assured me, that my demise will be burned out retina's by PC monitor abuse.

Take care all...luv the game by the way.

I think this is the "Big Red One" your thinking of, with Luke Skywalker, I mean Mark Hamill in it

Well, the movie where Lee Marvin stabs the German after the war is over is the "Big Red One." That's what the poster was trying to say.

Ah ...OK Thanks. Another character that pops up for the Russian side is the rapist supply-hogginf sadistic German officer in the movie "Stalingrad" who is shot by his own men near the end.
