RIP, Don.

I always liked him, but until now had no idea the guy was a DI and war hero.

He joined the U.S. Marines in the early days of World War II and served as a drill instructor.

Don Adams as a DI. Who woulda thunkit.

Oh, my. RIP 86.

Can we finally get this out on DVD so we can properly pay our respects?!

I remember in the 60's we were quoting him constantly. I wonder how many of his expressions became common language?

One of the really great ones.

He saw combat in the invasion of Guadalcanal and was the only survivor of his platoon.

Amazing! I had no idea.

RIP, Marine.

He saw combat in the invasion of Guadalcanal and was the only survivor of his platoon. He contracted blackwater fever and nearly died, remaining hospitalized for more than a year.

From that to one of the funniest men in the world...God works in mysterious ways.
