Inside the Hidden Well!
Storyline

In Africa, during WWII, a German soldier finds the well where Achilles' mother bathed him and so becomes invulnerable to bullets and steals the American soldiers' food who had found him wandering dazed in the desert. They open up on him and one of the bullets glances off his heal, killing him, because that is where the American medic had placed a bandage over a boot blister.
