Cat Ballou Paint Your Wagon
Lee Marvin (February 19, 1924 – August 29, 1987) in Tucson, Arizona in the latter stages of his life. Marvin was a rare breed of celebrity and found Tucson to be the perfect place to escape. We find his life prior to entering Hollywood, more interesting than his film career.

He attended Manumit School, a Christian socialist boarding school in Pawling, New York, during the late 1930s, Peekskill Military Academy in Peekskill New York, and later attended St. Leo College Preparatory School, a Catholic school in St. Leo, Florida after being expelled from several other schools for bad behavior.

Marvin’s military awards include the Purple Heart Medal, the Presidential Unit Citation, the American Campaign Medal, the Asiatic-Pacific Campaign Medal, the World War II Victory Medal, and the Combat Action Ribbon.”
