Duke John Wayne-- tanker roles
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Regarding Shawn's question, In "The Fighting SeeBees", The Duke rigged a dozer with dynamite, to ride in and blow up a stock of gasoline in order to ward off the attacking Japanese. Unfortunately he was snipered, while still on the dozer, and went along for the ride.

The Duke also met a similar fate at the end of Sands of Iwo Jima, when he was snipered as he sat down for a smoke, after the flag raising.

George Bradford' has a great link on his AFV news site, which has a list of movies with AFV content:

...and here I thought Wayne only "died" in three movies: "Sands of Iwo Jima", "The Cowboys", and "The Shootist". Didn't know about this one.

But of all the movies in which he died, Only one has his killer as a main character(well supporting), What actor has that honor ? _________________ Joe_D
