I didn't realize until just now that Eddie Albert died in 2005 at the age of 99. To many, he was Oliver Douglas but also was in 1962's The Longest Day.

He was a gent. Met him when I was a young lass. Used to stay at my grandfather’s.

In 1943 Eddie was rescuing 47 Marines on Tarawa and earning medals. He joined the Navy in his late 30 as an established actor already.
