Is there a reason he played so many german officers and military personnel?

Anyway. RIP Mr. Sheard.

I met him at a sci fi convention in UCC a few years back. Got his autograph and talked to him for awhile about playing Ozzel. He said that Lucas once told him that his was the best on-screen death in film history... not a bad compliment.

R.I.P. Michael Sheard
