It's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing. They blink an eye or draw a breath before they pull the trigger. I won't. ~ J.B. Books

    Were he topside of the soil, I'm sure he'd appreciate your sentiment.

    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    The Sons of Katie Elder I believe.

    As far as the Dukes lack of WW2 service, my dad was born in 08 and served in Europe. He was the oldest guy in his outfit and could have had a deferment but enlisted anyway. He was also a fan of John Wayne and I never heard him disparage the Duke for not enlisting. Bob
