🇳🇴 🇳🇴Jim Arness & dad Rolf Aurness talk about their Norwegian Heritage

[@JeffRyman69]

He doesn't make a big deal about his service, including his wound. Another example of the Greatest Generation. Thank you James Arness for your service.

[@Zee-et4rd]

Heart warming to see James with his young looking Dad. I love the Gunsmoke series and the cast.

[@Gunsmokepedia]

Rolf lived with Jim Arness for 20+ years on his ranch.

"You bet ya," really goes way back.

[@ArticTheGoat]

I am one of his family members in Norway, he visited my great grandfather in 1958

[@Gunsmokepedia]

You Betcha!

Who was the interviewer? Looks like he was taller than Jim.

[@per-arnemoa103]

His name was Erik Bye, and he was very popular here in Norway. Still is, even though he died nearly 20 years ago.

@@per-arnemoa103 Thanks. His bio says he was 6' 5.5", so not quite as tall as Jim. Must have looked taller because of the camera angle.
