In his day, there were only TWO ways to wash out of USMC boot:

1. Piss your bed repeatedly

2. Act super HOMO

SO WHICH WAS IT..??

Another Durante, the guy that enabled the bolshevik holocaust that murdered tens of millions.

He was privy to actual mass murder. He lied in part because the bolsheviks gave him cars and women.
