You have to be old to know some of these actors and watched a lot of Black & White TV.
Burt Lancaster was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1942 and was assigned to the Special Services Division of the Fifth Army as an entertainer.
Norman Lear(okay, not exactly an actor) served as a radio operator in the Fifteenth Army Air Force at Foggia, Italy and flew 57 combat missions.
