Monty Laird was AS&J's stunt coordinator, weapons expert, and Ben's stand-in. Before his death on April 16, 2004, he kindly communicated with AS&J fans on various message boards and by e-mail. He also sent many of the photos below by e-mail to the AS&J Collection website.
 
Monty and Ben Murphy developed a close friendship that remained until Monty's death. They worked together on other projects in the 1970s and 1980s. Monty was also a friend of Pete Duel and spoke of him for three interviews with Melody Cecko of the Peter Deuel Remembrance Club: interview 1, interview 2, and interview 3.
