Tough words from a self professed Korean War hero, and he wouldn't lie about that would he?
Actually, he received no awards, but he did serve on the frontline?
No, he served in America, but he did some sort of dangerous work?
No, he was a life guard at a pool, but it had to be some sort of military training pool?
No, it was a pool for officers' children to swim in, but it was required that a soldier do it right?
No, the teen who had that position before him was a part time "civilian employee". The job always went to a local teen willing to work for minimum wage, except for the brief period that Eastwood used it to avoid going to war.
Eastwood is a good actor, but he is not a real hero. The real heroes are the young soldiers leaving the military today having done four and five combat tours. A friend of mine did six combat tours. Eastwood sat by a pool.
