[GAME] Where's This Screencap From?

Sorry to take so long.
I hope this one isn't too easy. But, you must also say whose hand it is.

There are only a couple this could be. The red shirt makes me lean toward:

Wolf in the Fold?
 
You're right but yet, you're wrong. It is Wolf in The Fold and it is supposed to be Scotty's hand but, since it's a right hand it couldn't be Scotty's because Doohan was missing his entire middle finger on his right hand.

To wit:

So, what you're saying is that it is Scotty's hand, but not Doohan's. Good thing we didn't guess Doohan, eh? ;)
 
Eek! What happened to Doohan's finger?? :O
From Memory Alpha:

Doohan was born in Vancouver, British Columbia. Shortly after the outbreak of the Second World War, nineteen-year-old Doohan enlisted as a gunner in the Royal Canadian Artillery. After rising through the ranks to Sergeant, he won a place at Officer Training School, becoming a Lieutenant in the Thirteenth Field Regiment. On June 6, 1944, Doohan, by then promoted to Command Post Officer (Captain), was among the Canadian forces sent to take Juno Beach in Normandy as part of the D-Day invasion. He was in command of 120 men. That night, Doohan was machine-gunned when returning to his command post, sustaining wounds in the leg, right hand and chest – a cigarette case caught a bullet that would otherwise have killed him – and lost the middle finger of his right hand (because of this injury, outside of rare occasions, Doohan would conceal that portion of his right hand in film shots.) "I was twenty-four," Doohan wrote in his book Beam Me Up, Scotty, "And if the Germans had been marginally better shots, I wouldn't have seen twenty-five."
(Emphasis mine.)
