I went up to see a friend in Stuart, Florida who was on the tech staff filming a sequence for an upcoming Submarine Movie titled "Sea Viper-The Hunter Becomes The Hunted" about the Germans attempting to pass Nuclear secrets to the Japanese at the end of the European war.
My purpose was to lend my MP40, a Luger and a couple of P38s to the propertymaster for the film in exchange for hanging around and watching them work. It turns out the person who was to play a German Major did not show and I wound up with the small, speaking part!! I agreed as long as my son could participate. Great bonding experience. I had scrupples about wearing the uniform but justified it through the examples of actors I respect, who have doned these uniforms in the past for the sake of telling a story.
The uniform fit me pretty well but was hellishly uncomfortable in the South Florida heat.
Here is a still from the set.
