Very sad. He made Full Metal Jacket a great movie.

Yes! The boot camp part is the best part of that movie by far.

RIP.  May God have mercy on his soul.

Heaven just got the best U.S.M.C. Pearly Gate Guard it ever had. And now Numb Nutts like me will have to give Gunny 50 push-ups to get in. But it'll be worth it just to see his scary face again. R.I.P. Gunny.  :notworthy:

Yeah, he was one of those guys that we all thought would live forever. Well, he will on film at least.

Something about the good Gunny that always surprised me was his complete lack of fear on the acting front. If anyone has seen Saving Silverman, you'll know exactly what I'm referring to. He was hilarious in that movie.

I picked up the Mail Call bloopers CD. It is an absolute hoot. There is actually an "G" rated (heavily bleeped) and an "R" rated set. The "R" rated stuff is great.

Sir Slash

He wasn't a half-bad actor. I remember him in the re-make of, "Willard" about the killer rats and he played a step-father/family lawyer or something and did a credible job without screaming obscenities, of course he did that better. No way a bunch of killer rats could take down THE Gunny though.
