He was a Bomber Pilot in World War Two.


No, he was not a pilot.

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Arness



For a guy with no training as an actor, and near terminal shyness, he
did pretty well for himself.



I always kinda thought he looked like a manikin, and wondered how they
moved his lips?

I look at old gunsmoke clips, and laugh, and wonder how that could have
possibly entertained me, as a child. Then I realize there were adults
with me, when I watched!
