I met Clint Walker back in August of 08 at the Kanab Western Legends Round-up. After meeting him I can tell you he didn't have to act hard when playing 'Cheyenne' and true Cowboy and a Christian Gentleman.

1. Live each day with courage.
2. Take pride in your work.
3. Always finish what you start.
4. Do what has to be done.
5. Be tough, but fair.
6. When you make a promise, keep it.
7. Ride for the brand.
8. Talk less and say more.
9. Remember that some things aren't for sale.
10. Know where to draw the line.
I often send this in my letters when I send a 'care package' to a Marine overseas, I always add that there aren't many real cowboys these days, but I figure that a Marine is the next best thing!

Thank you Kart for sharing that. I will print it out and post it in a prominent daily “viewing area”.

I remember Clint Walker was in Centennial with Robert Conrad, the Dirty Dozen with Lee Marvin, Ernie Borgnine, Charles Bronson, Jim Brown, etc.
Pernell Roberts was also in Centennial and played General Asher along another famous TV Doctors in Chad Everett and Gregory Harrison his younger surgeon Gonzo on Trapper John MD, and the late Richard Crenna, who did some westerns as well and Colonel Trautman in the Rambo Series.
