"Then you can put your head anywhere you want." The other airmen whoop with laughter, and Stucky turns as red as the fingernails that encircle his crew cut. "Let me put my hand right here," she tells the young bomb hanger from McPherson, Kansas. She steadies herself by grabbing the top of Airman First Class Preston Stucky's bristly head. The men help her up onto the ladder, where she can get a better look at her portrait. "Hiya, boys!" she says, waving her daredevil fingernails, which catch the morning light and glisten with more ferocity than the A-lO's teeth. The limo pulls onto the field, and Dolly sashays over to the men decked out in their flight suits. The airmen arrived the night before to participate in war games later in the day, yet seem more nervous about confronting a blonde bombshell than an enemy one. Awaiting Dolly's limo disembarkation are the members of the Fighter Sharks squadron of the Flying Tigers wing of the U.S. Known as the Warthog among pilots, the A-10 has sharp white shark teeth painted around its nose. Her scantily clad portrait also graces the ladder door of one of the tank-killing A10 Thunderbolts parked on the runway of the Robert Gray Army Air Field at Fort Hood. During the Gulf War, a KC-135 jet had her voluptuous likeness painted on its side. "I've got an all-American heart, but my looks and my image may leave a lot to be desired in the minds of some. "If I hadn't been a star I would have been a beautician or a missionary," she tells me in all earnestness.

Through sheer pluck Dolly Parton has become a beloved American icon, a Marilyn Monroe full of Thanksgiving stuffing. Yet we know that underneath it all, as underneath all the Uber-patriotism of the last few months, lies an unquestioned sincerity. Like the plethora of yellow ribbons and video clips of Whitney Houston hitting her land-of-the-free high notes, Dolly's own symbolism can be a bit over-the-top. Her kindhearted vulgarity is, in fact, the essential ingredient of her all-Americanness. "Now, that's a Great American!"ĭolly Parton's battle plan for her own brand of femininity-a kind of Desert Form, if you will-is nothing less than the American Dream costumed for consumption. "Dolly told me that she went out to Fort Hood the other day to have her photo taken crawling around on tanks while all the battle-hardened men and women looked on," Governor Richards says. Always had em pushed up, whacked em around."

(A Texan with an instinct for crude can, like Dolly herself, go from bust to millionaire in a matter of months.) Dolly has spent a lot of time here: she filmed The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas down the road, performed at her good friend Governor Ann Richards's Austin inauguration in January, and recently returned to film an NBC movie about a Texas swing-band singer. We're in Texas, after all, and Texas, not her native Tennessee, is the Dolly Parton of states. What would seem ostentatious for other stars is simply expected from Dolly, who has made a career of overemphasis.
