Just watched Raiders for the 100th time, and noticed something I'd never noticed before. When Marion is being led onto the deck of the U-Boat in the submarine pen, she has a couple of Nazi soldiers holding machine guns on her. One of them has his head bandaged under his hat, and his arm in a sling! Anybody else ever notice him? I wonder if he is the same guy whose chest Marion poked her finger at, saying "don't you touch me" when she was captured on Katanga's boat? Maybe he did touch her and she kicked his ass?
Marion's victim?

I think the guy tried to 'fool around' with her and she unleashed her b*tch slap!

Digging into the details...
Gotta love topics like this...Indy minutia!
One of the soldiers from truck makes perfect sense and I don't know why I never thought of that before.
Probably because he's wearing a tunic instead of a khaki shirt. In my mind, the men who board the Bantu Wind have always been from the island base but now you guys have got me thinking otherwise. (The change of uniform is easily explainable.)
I don't think this guy was an actor/stuntman used in in the truck chase. One of them has his face hidden in the screencap below so I'll have to watch the scene again but it's very possible the bandaged guy was meant to be one of them. Hmm...
Here's another screencap made during my 'study' of all the German uniforms in "Raiders":
Good eye, Jacko, and thanks for bringing it up! (Your 2nd post in 3 years and it's a good one.)
We have 2 possiblities here. Hopefully, Kooshmeister will see this thread. I would love to here his opinion on this.

It very well could be the same actor since his facial features & expressions are indeed similar. He also gives Marion a rough shove on the sub's deck. Maybe it's his last chance at payback for her unseen, submarine smack-down!Jacko== said:

Stoo said:Yes, I've noticed him and always wondered what the deal was. Here's a screengrab I captured 2 years ago but never posted:
She spurned Belloq after he plied her with more alcohol, then Belloq gave his offensive line a crack at her.
That or he fell off his motorcycle...

Based on the thread title, I thought you were talking about the guy she blows away in the Raven. Wonder if that's the only person she ever killed. Did she personally kill anyone in CS? Any of the novels or anything?

I pointed out Indy on the periscope 3 years ago:
The Submarine: U-26 Wurrfler
As for the bandaged soldier: He reminds me of Rod Taylor.

Stoo, i'm going to have to come up with a script or something to search for posts by you before I respond from now on. Seems you've covered almost everything already.
jk, but wow, you have covered a lot here! I actually hadn't noticed him before, but in IMAX he's very clear and noticeable.

Well, in Raiders of the Lost Ark there's also that whole truckload of German soldiers she guns down from the turret on the Flying Wing, while Indy's brawling with the giant mechanic (not to mention the pilot she conks out with the chocks, who's killed when the plane blows up if he wasn't already dead from the head injury), so she kills quite a few guys just in that one movie.
