This is indeed a time for reflecting, even though their deaths were a hundred yrs. ago.

Bakunas did look like the one who stood between Sheehan and the big blond when they were watching Swan.

Found that James was in The Wanderers, too. Didn't get to check who he played. I don't know which Fury he played. Does anybody know what color his face was?

I think he was the Fury with the purple face, but I might be wrong.

A J Bakunis is the punk wearing the red black and white jersey and bears a resemblance to crocodile hunter Steve Irwin. He's the one that mercy bites if your still unsure.

Steve James is probably best known for his American Ninja films. Heres the link to his face paint colour
