Default R. Lee Ermey, R.I.P.

I don't have a link, but it seems R.Lee Ermey passed away. Complications from Pneumonia.
I had a chance to see him at a local gun show but had other obligations and missed it. I liked those History channel shows he did on the history of the gun.

Thumbs down RIP F. Lee Ermey.

I know he was in "Full Metal Jacket" as Gunny Hartman but didn't know who he was when I seen it and have not seen it in many years. Mostly know him for commercials and think he is entertaining because he reminds me of Sgt. Cefus King, my boot camp drill instructor. I still remember like yesterday, even though it was 53 years ago, "Chipley, what the hell you doin now!" was his favorite thing to shout out at least 3-4 times a day. I was a screw off. He was struck by lightning 3 times and I think indestructible. RIP F. Lee Ermey! I bet Sefus is still alive!

He was a good actor, a spokesman for the 2nd amendment, and despite his gruff persona, was a man who would give a helping hand to anyone who needed it. He will be missed.
