He was a great actor and more important, he was a great man. We all have faults but Hollywood in a satirical way has spawned the most disingenuous people in our country. John Wayne was a true American icon and an honorable man.

True, but SHORT shelf life...

Real heros with Hollywood careers:

James Arness, Jimmy Stewart, Mel Brooks- WWII combat engineer and survivor of the Battle of the Bulge, Master Sergeant "Happy Trees" Robb Ross-20 years USAF, Paul Newman a backseater in WWII Navy Combat Aircraft, Sean Connery at age fifteen joined the Royal Navy and served three years aboard HMS Formidable, Peter Graves US Army Air Force 1944-45.

Honorable mention to Gene Hackman USMC four and a half years as a field radio operator, Gal Gadot a combat trainer for IDF, Dr Ruth trained as scout sniper and seriously wounded during Palestine War in 1948,
And finally WWII veteran USMC Staff Sergeant Bea Arthur

An old football injury kept John Wayne out of WW II

He caught hell from John Ford, because he didn’t join up.

Well, that was the reason The Duke gave in hindsight, but I doubt it really did as many volunteered with much worse conditions than that. If he wanted to, or his studio allowed, he would have found a uniform somewhere. Was always a sore subject with him in later years and I'm sure he regretted not serving.

I don't think anybody doubted his patriotism in later years.

John Wayne had 4 children and was 34 years old when America entered WW11. His shoulder injury was from a surfing accident which worsened at football practice causing him to loose his scholarship
