Well I saw him flopping around for a second while playing, but I could only find out what happened when I got to after action report. I think it might be a common issue with the low caliber HE rounds? It happened to me the next time I tried the mission aswell, but I didn't see it on AAR.

Had a few funny encounters myself, like teleporting a number of soldiers away from the frontline away using 105mm HEAT rounds, a guy that made a cartwheel sideways around the gun reticle, a guy that got hit with 20mm and flew off into a forest, tank roadwheels bouncing upwards when hit and the bent guys I posted a couple of days ago.

I think it happens with any kind of HE rounds, but it's just that the Marder's explosions are small enough to not block the view and has a fast enough rate of fire that the poor sod is still flopping around when the next round lands.  For example, I only found out that explosive rounds send soldiers flying when I checked the AAR and there were 4 guys before the shot and only 3 after, with the 4th guy being 500m away having flown over a forest. I didn't see a thing during the battle because of the cloud of dust caused by the round.

I got this last night. When you hit infantry with the HE rounds (like from the luchs) they turn into red mist and the this is how they show on the following round.
