littlebuddy Posted March 5, 2014 Share #76 Posted March 5, 2014 Richard Todd as Major John Howard at "Pegasus Bridge" in The Longest Day. ( Todd was actually "there" on D-Day with the British Airborne boys) He was actually asked to play himself in the film but said he didn't do anything out of the ordinary during the landings!!
