He might well have been.

"Christopher Lee was educated at Summer Fields preparatory school, took a scholarship at Eton College and Wellington College where he was a classical scholar in Greek and Latin. After leaving school he worked as an office boy and messenger in the city of London at the salary of 1 pound a week and during five years of World War II he served in the Royal Air Force and Special Forces. He was decorated for distinguished service and held the rank of Flight Lieutenant."
Christopher Lee not only fought for the British secret service during WW2, he also apparently fought for the Finns during '39.
A great quote i read by Peter Jackson (of Lord of the Rings fame) was that he was quite disturbed by Lee's intimate knowledge of what a man sounds like when he is stabbed!
As for Ronald Reagen- he apparently was medically unfit for duty. It seems his eyesight was so bad he could barely see his leading ladiesI disagreed strongly with his politics but cant really question his courage.
The movie star who disapointed me most was Marion Morrison (aka John Wayne). He dodged the draft and spent the rest of his life pretending to be a hero![]()
