Lot of trivia can be offered or surmised about Glenn Ford, including how many Westerns did he wear the silver belly
colored crushed up Stetson before he switched to a large
black hat, starting with Cowboy.

But one thing that struck me was in 3:10 to Yuma, Buzz Henry who played one of Ben Wade's gang members, rode up fast near the end confrontation and dismounted and was ready to shoot all in one fluid motion. Years later Ford did basically the same stunt near the end of The Sacketts.

Henry was his chief stuntman through many of Ford's years. You can often recognize him by a colorful shirt, large brimmed hat and rodeo flapping style chaps as in Cowboy and 3:10 to Yuma.

Chuck Roberson, who doubled for John Wayne and had many speaking parts, is the more famous but I rank Henry right up there with him.

I believe Ford served actively in the Navy during WWII, Korea and as a reserve officer during Viet Nam.
