He's a one of a kind American....a real American.
Could you imagine any Lib in Hollywierd giving up an acting career to join the military??
20 missions over Germany? Anyone who read any books about the Eight Air Force or “mighty 8” know that you are 60/40 ratio , going to die on 1 mission alone.
The US Air Force took more casualties than both the Army and Marines COMBINED. I know Jimmy S played lanky characters but he has brass balls.
My top 3 western is still Liberty Valance. Lee Marvin was a US Marine who survived Iwo JIma and Stewart who survived 20 missions..amazing.
