Celebrities’ Courageous Stories About How They Served in the Army

Sam Elliot – 16R3D Airlift Wing

Sam Elliott might be adored as a gun-slinging cowboy of the Wild West; however, in real life, he had been a military man – for a while. Besides, he did a stint in the California Army National Guard, as he served in the 163rd Airlift Wing. To keep his personal finance going during this time period, Elliott occasionally worked construction jobs before joining up himself again at age 27 to try to become an actor like so many others who came west in pursuit of their dreams.

What luck! Soon after rejoining society, though, Sam’s first role would come along when legendary director cast him cowboy on Butch Cassidy.
