    Greetings from lower Alabama. I stumbled across this site while researching and trying to find DVDs and videos to round out my John Wayne collection. I think it is now complete with the exception of those that appear to be unavailable anywhere.

    I am a lifetime Duke fan and have had a pencil skecth picture of "Hondo" hanging in my various offices around the world since it was given to me by my first platoon in the Army almost 30 years ago. I remember seeing "The Cowboys" at the drive in in 1972 at age 13. Spent 23 years on active duty as an Army Aviator and now I run accident investigations and reporting for the Department of the Army. I use the handle BatjacAuburn on sports boards across the internet so I brought it here as well. Look forward to "talking with you" here.

    By the way, these are the theatrical films I don't have.

    Adventure's End Annie Laurie Cheer Up and Smile Girls Demand Excitement Mother Machree Speakeasy That's My Boy The Deciever The Forward Pass The Life of Jimmy Dolan The New Frontier The Oregon Trail Three Girls Lost Words and Music

    Hi


    Welcome to the site hope you can settle here and enjoy yourself. As Kieth says some of the films you need are available especially if you look at the John Wayne Film Society website here in England Good Hunting.

    Welcome to the JWMB! Glad to have you here!

    "I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people and I require the same from them" It may be time worn, but it's the best life-creed I know.

    Hello Batjac, I too found this site while wandering around in cyberspace hunting for JW movie info !!
