The Boys in Company C doesn’t do Ermey justice as far as being a hat goes.

Nah. Being able to do something in real life and making it look interesting in a movie are two different things.



Plus, from what I understand, being a DI involves a great deal of acting

Yes. Unreal how sucked in you get with the first hour. One of the most captivating blocks in movie history. Every time I see that movie, I find myself taking a deep breath and it feels like the first time I've breathed since the film started. It's awesome.

Out of respect, I’m grabbing myself a jelly donut this morning.

My R. Lee Ermey experience...
I was smokin' and jokin' with him OCONUS when an earthquake hit. It was temporarily disorienting and slightly terrifying, but the hilarity that spewed forth from his mouth in the few moments after the tremors are something that I will never forget.

Guard those streets of Heaven's scenes, Gunnery Sergeant!
