He also was a VETERAN of the Korean War, so he gets my vote as a true bro!!


Later, he joined the National Guard serving seven months in the United States. He then went to Korea for 14 months in the Regular Army, serving in the 5th Regimental Combat Team in the Korean War. He was wounded twice, first in the face and hand from shrapnel fire from a mortar round, and second on April 23, 1951 in the buttocks from friendly fire from U.S. fighter jets as he dived headfirst into a foxhole. Garner was awarded the purple heart in Korea for the first injury. For the second wound, he received a second Purple Heart (eligibility requirement: "As the result of friendly fire while actively engaging the enemy"), although Garner received the medal in 1983, 32 years after his injury.

Was a great actor. When Chuck Norris goes to bed at night, he checks his closet for James Garner. Straight bad ass.

My father used to watch "The Great Escape" over and over again when I was a kid. I thought back then that this was  a regular cast for any movie. Probably the reason why I hate most of today's movies.

This skank wishes that was her father. Her old man is probably as lame, gay and pathetic as her husband.

Daughters tend to marry men like their fathers.
