It’s not fair is it? The good ones die & evil ones like her live on & still no justice found for her crimes.

He seemed a positive influence.

To: musicman
Dad, who fought in the Guadalcanal/Bougainville Campaign in the Marines absolutely HATED listening to R. Lee Ermey
not because his drill instructor act was bad
but because it was RIGHT ONE THE MONEY.
It gave him 1942 Parris Island chills to hear him.
RIP Gunney

one of the best DI portrayals of all time.Until Ermey came along, I think Jack Web's portrayal in "The DI" was the best.
