He was drafted by the United States Army in 1951 during the Korean War and was supposed to be sent to battle. Allegedly, Eastwood managed to avoid his posting to war by charming a high-rank officer’s daughter and was sent instead to be a lifeguard in Ford Ord, California. These skills came in handy as he used them when a plane he was flying on crashed in the ocean. Eastwood swam three miles to shore and later confessed that he thought he might die.
