Re: Celebs that served in the Military
Clayton Moore, The Lone Ranger, served in the Army Air Force from 1943-45. He made training movies. He was awarded a Good Conduct Medal, which you would expect from The Lone Ranger, and he made Sharp Shooter, so he really could shoot.

Re: Celebs that served in the Military
Sometimes the character on the screen is impossible to relate to the person in their actual life.
