    Who's in this picture?

    I met Gunther Rall at the Wings of Eagles Airshow in Willow Run Michigan five years ago. I had the luck to be able to spend a few minutes talking to him after the banquet. He's a great guy with some fabulous stories to tell.

    Mad Men alco-accuracy

    I don't remember anybody I knew drinking Vodka in the 60s and 70s. Whisky cocktails, Rum cocktails, and Gin cocktails, but not Vodka.

    Bad repro looks

    His hair seems a bit awful here, although he is supposed to be very blue collar in the film: I wore my hair like that in my teens and all I heard from my Father was, "GET A HAIRCUT!"

    Movie Stars of War World II

    Don't forget Marlene Dietrich. In the biography of her written by her daughter, she is said to have been a real friend of the GIs. It seems that during the time she volunteered at "The Hollywood Canteen", she and some of the other Actresses (unnamed) would take lucky Soldiers and Sailors home...
