Ford bravely served his country in two wars (not on the sidelines, but in the front lines) facing enemy fire on many occasions and never expecting to be treated like a Hollywood star but as a fellow fighting man. He was indeed a hero both on and off the screen.

It's difficult to believe that Hollywood was once full of patriots.

Thanks for the post. I really like watching Glenn Ford in the movies, and as a retired military member, I'm glad he served. I look forward to meeting him in the resurrection.

And as a general question to those that read my post... how do I get in contact with those who would use some of my outlines for commercials or movies?

"It's difficult to believe that Hollywood was once full of patriots."

Yes it is. Times surely do change.

I always liked Glenn Ford. This article gives me so many more reasons not only to like him, but to respect him. Wow!

God bless Glenn Ford and all in his family.

He served with the 'Coasties,' the 'Jarheads' and the 'Squids.' That sounds like a well rounded individual.

As a former Squid myself, I am proud that he chose to cap his service with the US Navy.

But, in truth all Americans should join in a well deserved send-off for Captain Glenn Ford not to mention he was excellent in "Follow the Sun" the Ben Hogan story.

You deserve a BZ. FYI 'BZ' or Bravo Zulu is Navy code for "well done!"

God bless him. May he rest in peace.

I know it really is, I can hardly stand movies now days.
When I go to video store, I just wander around aimlessly wondering what am I doing wasting my time when there is no quality to be had in this sewer of entertainment

Contrast Ford to present day Hollywood types.
