I think his values were much appreciated, had to read a little more about him, but just by the portrayal of the characters he acted, (and most of us only know these people by this) you could tell there was a lot more content behind the scenes. It's hard to watch all the crap that surrounds the people in that business today, guys like him seemed to have a lot more integrity and respect, they certainly did not need TMZ or the tabloids, which is a real bunch of crap out there today.
Funny you mention the March on Washington, and that Mr. Heston was there, had no idea.
If you look at Dr Martin Luther King in this photo, the person in uniform on his left, (right if looking at the photo) is a friend's father. I was never sure of how he came to be there in uniform that day, he is the one with the drill sergeant campaign type hat with his left hand holding his right forearm and the patch showing on his right shoulder. He is a retired NYS Trooper, who was stationed next door to where I grew up for many years, well known family name, big sawmill up on the mountain, my father was good friends with him, his stepson is now an investigator with the same agency in forensics. I saw a wider angle photo facing Dr. King not from the side, and cannot remember where now, this is all I could find on the web, small world when you think about it, to him it was probably just an assignment, I never heard any stories about him being there that day. He was a well known trooper, reputation for always getting his man, and had an instinct about detecting stolen vehicles, he was a real character, and a heck of a good guy, I assume he's still around, I will have to ask about that.
Must have been one interesting day to stand next to Dr King and listen to this speech.

In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together.
