About a true American hero in a B29 over Japan in WW II.
It’s a “short.” Well worth your minute.
Very much so. Also another one was Richard Boone. He was Have Gun Will Travel and the bad guy in Big Jake and several other westerns.
He dropped out of Stanford prior to graduation and then worked as an oil rigger, bartender, painter, and writer. In 1941, Boone joined the United States Navy and served on three ships in the Pacific during World War II, seeing combat as an aviation ordnanceman, aircrewman, and tail gunner on Grumman TBF Avenger torpedo bombers, and ended his service with the rank of petty officer first class.
Lots of the good actors in those days had histories of being men. That is why the movies were so good.
