Ollie,
Here's the pretty Mary Crosby, Bing's daughter, who was star of
a "Tales From The Crypt" and I was a corpse at her wedding. She
is a sweetheart.
We were at the Hollywood Cemetery to film this show.

Ollie, this is the closest I got to being General. We were doing a
TV movie "Guts and Glory" about Ollie North. In one scene, I got to
the 'Oval Office' and shook hands with the actor playing President
Reagan. David Keith and Terry O'Quin were the stars in this 1990
pic. These projects were very enjoyable even if I wasn't the star |

Ollie,
This is as close to Admiral I could get. That's the talented
Lloyd Bridges at the Hollywood Cemetery where we were shooting
scenes from the spoof film "Hot Shots." I was working with the
camera crew as Lloyd's stand-in on that project which was
another fun job.
Lloyd came out of the hospital, with a bad flu, to do scenes one
day. He was another dedicated pro and a nice man as well.
