Another lie by a liar. John Wayne attempted to enlist during WWII but was

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.

That's bull****.

Wayne requested requested and received a deferment during WWII (3-A --
deferred for family dependency reasons). Later during the war his
classification was changed to 2-A (deferred in support of the national
interest, whatever that means). Shortly after that he was reclassified
1-A and his movie studio appealed. He was reclassified 2-A.

As they say, you're entitled to your own opinion, but not to your own facts.
