Tommy Cooper was in the Foot Guards I think, I think he was rather handy with his fists too.
Grenadier Guards I think
Richard Attenborough was aircrew of sorts, gunner or something ????
Tony Hart, do remember him from 'Take Hart' the kids art programme, he was an officer with the Gurhka's in Burma during the war.
Steptoe and Son, the younger chap (the son) was in the army and served in Malaya during the early 50's.
John Mills of course was in the Royal Navy.
Kenneth Moore, he was in the war too, he had a few medals on his chest.....I can't remember what he was in (great film the 39 steps)
Dirk Bogard was in the last war to, I think; again for the life of me I can't remember what he did or with whom.
Laurence Olivier was in the RNAS as a pilot, in fact he was the youngest pilot in the RNAS (just like George Bush senior in the USN)
Any more that you know of guy's ?
David Niven I think was a TA officer and also went to the Spanish Civil War as a 'voluteer' so to speak......this is all just from memory, so I may be incorrect.
What about Richard Burton was he in the forces at all ?
