When he was filming "It's a Wonderful Life," he would sometimes need to leave the set because of PTSD "shakes." Though he never talked about it, the other actors knew and patiently waited until he could come on the set again. He had been a squadron leader, and that, he said, was the greatest cause of his stress, feeling that he was responsible for all those guys, for those who didn't make it back. ______________________________________________________ "You get much farther with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." | |||
