1960s John Wayne PSA Savings Bonds TV commercial. A typical John Wayne-esque commercial - patriotism from a guy who used influence to escape WW2 service. Henry Fonda, James Stewart, Gene Autry served, but the "TOUGH GUY" - Marion Michael Morrison (aka John Wayne) got the studio to put pressure on the government for his benefit.

Henry Fonda ENLISTED as a sailor, and then went to Officer training school. All of his other classmates were made Ensigns, but Henry was made a Lieutenant JG, simply because he was so much older than his classmates.

I mentioned Henry's story because some people claim that John Wayne was too old to serve - B.S. Henry was 2 years older. Henry was also married - just like the so-called "TOUGH GUY" (aka John Wayne).
