Loved the bit about real troops booing him for his movies glorifying war.

I recall my Father, a WW2 Veteran shouting at me to "Shut that off!" when he caught me watching "The Green Berets". I said "it's a John Wayne movie. Good stuff."..........". "No, it's propaganda and John Wayne is a coward, full of nothing but hullabaloo. Now, shut it off!".

He couldn't stand Reagan, either; "....just a slick talking has been actor hired to talk you out of everything we've worked and fought for. My generation had life hard when we were young and it got better. You kids are going to have it the other way around if Reagan and his people have their way.".
