RIP Glenn Ford.

I just watch "Gilda" for the first time a couple of days ago. Pretty good flick.

It seems like he was also in a WWII movie like "Midway" or "The Longest Day".

It was Midway. He played Admiral Spruance.

He also served in WWII in the Marines. Retained his commission for many years after the war.

You're right. He played Rear Admiral Raymond Spruance in 'Midway'.
