Oh that sucks

I had no idea he starred in so many movies. "Full Metal Jacket" and "The Siege of Firebase Gloria" are still some of my favorites. RIP!

"Marines don't die, they get promoted. Guarding the streets of heaven since 1775."

A genuine character. His unashamed bias towards US equipment of any era in the weapons series he did used to crack me up!

Definitely a true American!

Old Wolfman16 Apr 2018 5:54 a.m. PST

Met Gunny once at a meet/greet at the Cincinnati Cavalcade Of Customs Show(it 's about cars,bikes,trucks,etc.) . Seemed proud when I mentioned of my paternal grandpa's hitch with the Marines in WW1. I even saluted him,and was complimented by him for it. Condolences to his family. Rest easy,thanks,and Semper Fi! OOhRah!

Dang. Gonna miss the Gunny.

I remember him most as the Marine drill sergeant in Space: Above and Beyond, and the voice of the plastic Army men sergeant in Toy Story. Loved his "Gunny Time" series, too.

RIP, and whip those angels into shape!

Tacitus16 Apr 2018 8:31 a.m. PST

A genuine, larger than life character. He will be missed.

Watermelons all over the world can sleep secure tonight.

RIP and thanks for all you did.
