Seeing is believing. Has anyone come across this photo of a highly decorated war hero?

Curious...

Those look like pre-war American BBs, with the tripod masts and all,but why are they sinking or aflame in the middle of the ocean? Wasn't there...you know...some port or something nearby? Oyster Roads, wasn't it? No...wait...it was Barnacle Bay. No...not it either...um...Abalone anchorage? [&:]

Anyone remember the old Bob Newhart dialogue when he talks about John Wayne War movies.

"Did you ever think about how close to losing the war we were if he wasn't in it ?"

Sorry John 3rd, the Duke may have been considered cool once, but did he win the Battle of Britain single-handed? Stop the strike on Pearl Harbor from being a total disaster for the US? or raise Tokyo to the ground? I don't think so.

Credit where credit is due....[:D]

"Sorry John 3rd, the Duke may have been considered cool once, but did he win the Battle of Britain single-handed? Stop the strike on Pearl Harbor from being a total disaster for the US? or raise Tokyo to the ground? I don't think so. "

He built the bases across the Pacific. He sank carriers...from a sub! ( Go on, beat that!) Personally fixed the US torpedo problem. Ran ops in a torpedo boat in the PI, personally brought the USN into advanced carrier doctrine, charged after KB with 1 heavy cruiser, fought off the Yamato, 4 CA's, and 12 DD's with a scratch force of a CA and some CL's and DD's, shot up planes all over China, blew up a bridge with a dc3, stormed Tarawa and Iwo Jima....and that was just in WWII!!!

Next to The Duke that kid above is a phoney! (shocker, huh?!?)

Gorns don't blink. That may be your problem.

[geofflambert]

We don't have to, we have transparent membranes that close to protect them while eating for instance. They are no use against Affleck.

So the Duke should be considered to be expendable?

But John Ford said so.

This reminds me of a story my father told. Just after the war he was living in a boarding house while finishing his degree in college. The son of the house's owner went to see a new movie called Fighter Squadron which was about a 9th AF P-47 unit. It had some cool flying scenes, but was a movie worthy of dumb chills otherwise.

When the kid came home from the movie he asked my father why it took him so long to beat the Axis. My father replied if the real Germans were as bad as Warner Brother's Germans, it would have been a short war.

The Duke was expendable. So much, in fact, he played a role in the movie, "They Were Expendable." A very WITP kinda' movie. He also died as a Seabee...in another film.

[pmelheck1]

And don't forget as a Marine on Iwo!

[Lecivius]

A Seebee, a Marine, and AVG pilot, a Merchant Marine Captain, a PT boat skipper, a Rear Admiral twice, a sub commander...and all in the same war!

The Duke was my role model growing up. He was all I had, but he was enough [;)]
