People should really dig into John Wayne's military history. He was disliked and booed by World War II veterans on his only USO tour because he was regarded as a draft Dodger. He used the family deferment for 2 years and then when that was removed and other fathers went to serve he got a special dispensation as a propaganda actor to avoid service. His wife said later that he was deeply ashamed and it was part of the reason he became such a war hawk later in life. He was a decent actor with a unique presence but not really a very good man in reality.
