Damn. :(

I own both the Longest Day and the Dambusters....

In The Longest Day he played his own officer, Major Howard, as he was actually at Pegasus Bridge on D-Day...

Wondered what he would of thought of the new Dambusters movie....

His wiki gives a great quote: "You don't consciously set out to do something gallant. You just do it because that is what you are there for."
