I was very disappointed in Wayne’s performance in the Longest Day.

Frankly he was too old for that part.

The real Colonel whom Wayne portrayed was still younger than Wayne when the film was released!

Good point and I agree.

My favorite WW II Wayne movie is “In Harms Way”. He was the perfect age for the part. Great cast, too.
