Favourite scene
At the gasthaus Zum Wilden Hirsch, Heidi slaps Smith in his face and stomps away.
Captain German Officer I: Major, your conduct does not become an officer of the Wehrmacht.
Major John Smith: Herr Major when you talk to me. Major Bernd Himmler. Does that name mean anything to you? I advise you to mind your own business in the future. Is that understood?
Smith leaves the table.
In the movie this officer is a Major. You will recognize it because of the epaulettes.
Yes this officer holds the rank of major
yup he’s a major allright…..
I haf to admit it, that was wery cunning of Col. Smith posing fore Himmler brother.
He also plays the german officer in kellys heroes
But in the book he is a captain, isnt he?
…i didnt know this many people have seen the movie
Exactly, you think a Captain would question a Major on his conduct? They were at least of equal rank >
As mentioned many times above, this officer is definitely a major.
Same actor played the German lieutenant at the minefield in Kellys Heroes.
