In most Gunsmoke scenes, Matt Dillon’s feet were not shown. That was because James Arness often wore slippers as his feet hurt too much to wear boots.Reference “ Against all odds”, this is a book I’ll get and read…James Arness, aka “ Matt Dillion” of Gunsmoke fame served in the 3rd Infantry Division as a Rifleman and received a Bronze Star along with a leg wound at Anzio that caused his permanent limp….the show ran for 20 years with Him.
