RIP, General Hammond. BTW, he, Don Davis, also acted in a MacGuyver episode with Richard Dean Anderson, IIRC, he was a truck driver.

Aw, man, I hate to hear this. :*(

I really loved “Hammond of Texas”—many prayers and condolences going up for his family and friends!!

This is very sad. As General Hammond he projected authority and humanity, playing well against O'Neill’s rebelliousness, Jackson's nerdiness, and Samantha's earnestness. I think that the loss of his centering presence is what weakened the series.

He portrayed military roles with believability, and was a very valuable contributor to the success of Stargate SG-1. He’ll be missed...

He also played Scully’s retired Navy Captain dad in The X-Files. Episode 1X12 Beyond the Sea.
