Tim Holt (and Earl Holliman) were two of my favorite movie actors.Tim
Holt was in the U.S.Army Air Corps in World War Two.He was wounded on
the last day of the War in a Bombing Raid over Tokio, for which he
earned a Purple Heart.Earl Holliman was in the U.S.Navy in World War
Two.

Take a look at modern day so-called movie actors, bunch of Yellow Belly
COWARDS! Drunk Driving WIMPS!
I just read at alt.gossip.celebrities newsgroup Bill Murray has been
arrested for driving drunk in a golf cart in Stockholm,Sweden.

I am with you 100% on Earl Holliman! He has always been one of my
favorites. I can remember him doing lots of PSA's on behalf of animals
urging spay and neutering to reduce the homeless animal population.

Think you could get any of the so called "stars" of today to do
something constructive and positive like that? And for free *GASP*?
Not a chance.

By the way, I have never liked John Wayne or Frank Sinatra because
they were draft dodgers during WWII and unlike today that was a MAJOR
disgrace back then. Jimmy Stuart on the other hand was a hero who not
only volunteered to serve in the middle of his very successful movie
career but did so heroically. He ended up making General in the Air
Force reserve before all was said and done. Ed McMahon also made
Colonel (I believe) in the Marine Corp reserves. Johnny Carson served
honorable in the Navy also.

Unlike the chicken hawks of today (Rush Limbaugh, Dick Cheney,
Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Glen Beck and all the other right wing
gas bags who all love the idea of going to war) the stars of
yesteryear walked the walk and not just talked the talk.

No reason to knock Frank Sinatra and John Wayne.John Wayne was too young
to enlist in World War One and too old to enlist in World War Two, the
cut off age was thirty four years of age.

forcep delivery at birth left permanent scars on his face and ruptured
