Are there two separate versions of Hugo Stiglitz's background in Inglourious Basterds?
I've seen Inglourious Basterds a few times. I recall that the Samuel L. Jackson voice over, which gave a background of Hugo Stiglitz, stated
As a German enlisted man, he managed to kill thirteen Gestapo officers; mostly Majors.
Upon subsequent viewings the "mostly Majors" part was dropped. I have confirmed that I have heard both lines correctly.
Are there two separate versions of Inglourious Basterds?
If so, what are other notable changes?
