Steve Buscemi was a New York firefighter (Engine 55, Little Italy)from 1980 to 1984 before becoming an actor. After 9/11, he returned to Engine 55 and worked 12-hour shifts at Ground Zero.

Who would downvote this? I never knew that and it's actually pretty cool. Olympic archery is no freaking joke.

Eddie Albert (AKA Mr. Douglas from Green Acres):

quote:

On September 9, 1942, Albert enlisted in the United States Navy and was discharged in 1943 to accept an appointment as a lieutenant in the U.S. Naval Reserve. He was awarded the Bronze Star with Combat "V" for his actions during the invasion of Tarawa in November 1943, when, as the pilot of a U.S. Coast Guard landing craft, he rescued 47 Marines who were stranded offshore (and supervised the rescue of 30 others), while under heavy enemy machine-gun fire.[8]

So I guess the question is, "did she miss on purpose?"

Ed O'Neil was also a scholarship football player at Ohio University before transferring to Youngstown State to play defensive end.

He was actually signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers before being cut during training camp in 1969.
