Another lie by a liar. John Wayne attempted to enlist during WWII but was
rejected due to a football injury to his shoulder. Draft dodger, indeed!
Get your facts straight - I'm sure you knew this, you just hate any
patriot. John Wayne supported the troops through the USO whenever he
could - WWII through Viet Nam. Crawl back under your rock.

Just some of the FACTS!

When war broke out, John Wayne tried to enlist but was rejected because of
an old football injury to his shoulder, his age (34), and his status as a
married father of four. He flew to Washington to plead that he be allowed to
join the Navy but was turned down. So he poured himself into the war effort
by making inspirational war films - among them The Fighting Seabees, Back to
Bataan and They Were Expendable. To those back home and others around the
world he became a symbol of the determined American fighting man.
Duke could not be kept from the front lines. In 1944 he spent three months
touring forward positions in the Pacific theater.

A true hero!
