John Wayne and others may have won the war in films but then so did many British film stars. On the other hand Audie Murphy also did it in real life. - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audie_Murphy

This politically correct business has got out of hand.

If you are making a film set in a period in the past you use the language of that day. If it means using words that are unacceptable today, then so be it.

After all many modern films contain foul language, which seems to be the norm these days.
