Nobody says it like the Duke…he’s Old School. From jwplace.com, “John Wayne had a deep love for his country. This patriotism is reflected throughout his life. He had wanted to go into the military but an old football injury prevented it. He is quoted as saying, ‘More than anything else, I wanted to go to Annapolis and become an officer in the Navy.
