WWII Movie with Luger, P.38 and a PPK

The "Artillery Movie" is, of course, "The Guns of Navarone". The character played by Anthony Quayle has his wounded leg clubbed with an Artillery Luger by an SS officer, in an effort to extract vital information. Norm

P38 is super popular in Yugoslavian WWII movies. In fact, I have never seen Lugers in Yugo movies. Every role, Partisan, Gastapo, Crotian, etc, plays P38.

Why didn't Yugoslavian see Lugers.....

Hi Alvin, On page 80 of "Third Reich Lugers" there is a photo of Tito accompanied by a soldier carrying a Luger "likely captured from the Germans". Regards
