John Wayne was a unique man, a true American hero. He joined The Big Trail toward stardom during the age of the silent screen, became a star of "B" movies during the '30's, and a major star from the '40's until his death in 1979, when he joined The High and the Mighty on The Trail Beyond. He was Hondo, Big Jake, The Quiet Man, King Of The Pecos, The Conqueror, and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. He was one of The Searchers and went In Harms Way down the Blood Alley that is known as Hollywood. He was one of those Riders of Destiny, who through Conflict and a little Trouble Along The Way became the biggest box office star Hollywood has ever known, and a hero to not only the American people, but people all around the world. John Wayne was a man of True Grit, who was Tall In The Saddle, and Without Reservations stood up for what he believed. Through adversity he remained one of the Undefeated as he Cast A Giant Shadow over this great land of ours. He was one of The Cowboys of Hollywood, and a Tycoon as well. He has become not a Legend Of The Lost, but a legend for all time. He will live forever, a hero till the end

That voice. That walk. That craggy grin. Thousands have imitated the Duke. But his impact has never been duplicated. John Wayne taught a generation of men how to stand tall, how to give a kiss, and how to take a punch. From the top of his dusty cowboy hat to the soles of his boots, John Wayne embodied the American frontier spirit like no one before or since.
































We all miss the Duke



Turn Music On and Off With Switch Above..

Words To Song
Fighting soldiers from the sky,
Fearless men who jump and die,
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Green Beret.

Silver wings upon their chests,
These are men, America's best,
One hundred men we'll test today,
But only three win the Green Beret.

Trained to live off nature's land,
Trained in combat, hand to hand,
Men who fight by night and day,
Courage take from the Green Beret.

Silver wings upon their chests,
These are men, America's best,
Men who mean just what they say,
The brave men of the Green Beret.

Back at home a young wife waits,
Her Green Beret has met his fate,
He has died for those oppressed,
Leaving her this last request:

Put silver wings on my son's chest,
Make him one of America's best,
He'll be a man they'll test one day,
Have him win the Green Beret.
