Thank you for your service Gunny, and for all the great entertainment you gave us. Will always remember you in the Geico commercial. One of my favorites. I know you aren’t in Nambie Pambie Land with the rest of the jack wagons. RIP.

I want that head so spotless and squared away the Virgin Mary herself would be proud to go in there and take a dump.

Semper Fi Gunny.

Talk about squared away? Do they even make them like that anymore?

Semper Fi!

“A man’s man.“

He sure was. What a life, he even ran a brothel in the Philippines briefly. Try to catch one of Adam Corolla’s podcasts that had him on entertaining as it gets.

Men like him are of incalculable value to our country.
That is exactly right. And despite Gillette's ad , there are still quite a few around, thanks to people like R. Lee Ermey to set an example .

I met him at the Dover NASCAR race. He was representing Glock in the executive suite. Nice chat and got a personal signed autograph. Great guy.

He actually wasn’t supposed to get the role. Ermey was mentoring someone else auditioning, and did such a good job that Kubrick decided to hire him himself.
