Flashlarue Posted June 9, 2015 Share #1 Posted June 9, 2015 I came across this double photo of Dan Blocker, Hoss from Bananza, on the Internet. The article said he was a 1st SGT. Seems to me there is a slight error with his uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge8 Posted June 11, 2015 Share #7 Posted June 11, 2015 I believe he taught High School English before going in to acting. He was the best educated of the Cartwright clan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
