: This has probably been covered in one of the 'Indy' novels, (I use the term loosely), but where was Indy during WWII? Did he heed Uncle Sam's call? Being a college professor could have possibly rendered him exempt. Necessary to the homefront or whatever. I just have a hard time seeing Indy in a steel-pot, marching through Italy or northern Africa. My gut tells me that this is what the next pic will concern.

I doubt it. Lucas has used this idea to its conclusion with the Young Indy films. And seeing as how Indy served in the secret service and all of that he probably got dispatched as a spy.

And I remember a quote from GL talking about how the Complete adventures of Indy would take us from the 1900s through to the 1950s. This would place the new film after Infernal Machine and gives more credence to the (shudder) Area 51 concept...
