I'm fairly certain Cassavettes, Savalas and Carruthers are dead and also that Sutherland, Bronson, Brown, Lopez, Walker, Mancini and Maitland are still alvie. This leaves a question mark over Busby and Cooper. Does anyone know if the latter two have departed this mortal coil??

The Dirty Dozen were:
Charles Bronson - Joseph T. Wladislaw
Jim Brown - Robert T. Jefferson
John Cassavetes - Victor Franco
Trini Lopez - Pedro Jiminez
Telly Savalas - Archer J. Maggott
Donald Sutherland - Vernon L. Pinkley
Clint Walker - Samson Posey
Tom Busby - Milo Vladek
Ben Carruthers - Glenn Gilpin
Stuart Cooper - Roscoe Lever
Colin Maitland - Seth K. Sawyer
Al Mancini - Tassos R. Bravos

Charles Bronson, Jim Brown, Trini Lopez, Donald Sutherland, Clint Walker and Al Mancini are definitely alive. That's six.
John Cassavetes, Telly Savalas, and Ben Carruthers are definitely dead. That's nine.
The other three are a bit elusive. I found Stuart Cooper in a movie from 1999, and Tom Busby in a movie from 1986, but Colin Maitland seems to have disappeared. I can't find anything about him after The Dirty Dozen.
