Had my brush with fame today. I was flying back from Kansas City, stuck in the line to get screened by the TSA monkeys, and I looked up to see none other than Gunnery Sergeant Hartman walking past. He even had on the Marine Cover. I had to do a double take before I convinced myself it was him. Alas, I was held captive by the aformentioned monkeys, so I didn't have a chance to give him an "OOOH-RAH!"

Today... is Christmas! There will be a magic show at zero-nine-thirty! Chaplain Charlie will tell you about how the free world will conquer Communism with the aid of God and a few marines! God has a hard-on for marines because we kill everything we see! He plays His games, we play ours! To show our appreciation for so much power, we keep heaven packed with fresh souls! God was here before the Marine Corps! So you can give your heart to Jesus, but your ass belongs to the Corps! Do you ladies understand?

I'll bet you're the kind of guy that would *beep* a person in the a$$ and not even have the goddam common courtesy to give him a reach-around. I'll be watching you.

why did he have to kiss jack black in Saving Silverman?

His name is R. Lee Emery.

Awesome

I'm aware of his real name. Gunnery Sergeant Hartman is his most famous role though.

I should clarify that he was wearing the baseball hat type cover and not the Smokey the Bear type.

The man is a hoot. I got to escort him for one week in Iraq while they prepped for and broadcast his show Mail Call.

I work for TSA and will be going to Marine OCS in Jan, perhaps you should think twice before insulting.

Met him once in the lobby of the Driskell Hotel in Austin the weekend of a home game a few years back. Seemed like a nice guy!

You are pukes! You're the lowest form of life on earth. You're not even human fu**ing beings. You are unorganized grabasstic pieces of amphibian s**t!

Hell I like you, you can come over to my house and F*** my sister.


One of the greatest movies ever.

Well it ain't "Emery" either.

It's "Ermy", do you understand me, Private???

I liked that they sang Happy Birthday to Jesus since it was Christmas.

also from that flick, though not him saying it:

"How can you shoot women and children?"

"Easy. You just don't lead them as much."

SIT DOWN AND SHUT YOUR TRAP! IT'S TIME FOR MAIL CALL!!!!!!!!!

Isn't he like 6'2" in real life?

"I'd bet your the kind of guy that can suck a golf ball through a garden hose"

"Get the **** off of my obstacle course!"

They really do say that.

Excellent

Here, you are all equally worthless!

He looked smaller than I imagined him, which is why I had to double take. That being said, I'm 6'5", so lots of people look small.

Who here had a Mary J. Rottencrotch?

I had just started watching that movie.....private cowboy is on!


"you climb obstacles like old people f***"

Log, I'm 6'7", so, you look short to me.
I saw Mr. Emry at the NRA convention when it was in Houston a few years ago. There was a LONG line for his autograph. We joked that for an extra $20.00 he would call you "Maggot".

Gun safety is no accident.

his name is E-R-M-E-Y maggots!

he recorded an OPSEC awareness video for us for free, with unlimited distribution within the military. bought dinner for all the guys who were there that day. (after a visit to the BAMC burn unit.) nice man.

Ermey...Ermey...Ermey...Good, now it's supposed to be mine for life...until the next time I have to remember it

Gun safety is no accident.
