HOLLYWOOD BOOK CHAT SALUTES ALL OUR VETERANS! After Jimmy Stewart, I next most admired Clark Gable for his service. Gable joined the Army Air Corps not long after his love, Ma Lombard was killed in that horrible plane crash while on a War Bond tour. Look close to the photo below of Gable taking his oath ... you can still see the pain from his loss of Carole. Gable actually flew combat mission as a gunner on a B-17. Later, the Pentagon--fearful that such a major star might be killed or captured--ordered him in to the Film Unit. But make no mistake, Gable was a true American hero (as was Ma.) Here is a marvelous rare look at Gable and his work with the Army Air Corps!
