R Lee is a great actor and a fine role model.
Mail Call rocks. There is nothing better than watching a fellow afficianado blast away with a 50BMG and lovin it like R Lee does.
I never miss Mail Call.

What kind of grabasstic unorganized question is that?
sin and consequence.....
As a new member I committed the sin of failing to use "SEARCH" to see if there was a previous thread saluting R. Lee Ermery for which I will do so in the future.
Via SEARCH I found there to be 46 references to him and/or Mail Call with one in particular that was started by FPrice on 1/14/03 with 50 replies and 1355 views! The thread is: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3897&highlight=Mail+Call

Great show! I don't get to see it often being a 3rd shifter. They had a 6 hour block on a few weeks back that had me glued to my seat. It would be great to have R.Lee on the board.

Gunny Ermery, at The High Road
p.s. If there is sufficient response to this thread I will personally forward it to him with an invitation to join the High Road!
Seems like a reasonable action.

now I gotta admit that I'm just a disabled old soldier (my younger brother is the family member associated with Uncle Sam's Misguided Children) but I have to admit that the first time I saw the movie one thing that kept coming to me over and over was "this guy isn't just an actor"
another was "that was they way I wanted to cuss when I was a SGT!".
The only guy I've ever seen who could cuss more fluently than R.L.E. was an Army warrant officer who'd been in so long he was reputed to have been one of the road guards at the Crucifixion.

Funny how out of six, or seven billion lost souls, there are always a few unique ones. From "Firebase Gloria" to "Mail call"..you gotta love him.
When Saddam is cornered, I suggest R.L.E be given a megaphone and go at it until Saddam decides to do the right thing and go room temperature.

Ermey in "Switchback" on TBS
wow..... just finished watching : R. Lee Ermey in a dramatic role playing Sheriff Olmstead in "Switchback" on TBS tonight - super performance!
and my personal apology to all and especially R. Lee Ermey himself for my blunder in mispelling his last name, a last name that will go down in the history books under
"E R M E Y" and let's not forget that fellow maggots!

It's weird that I did not notice that was mispelled.

Full Metal Jacket came out a year or two before I joined the Army. I joined the reserves while in HS so I got to go to drills for about 9 months before basic. Curious about what lay in front of me I started asking guys in the unit about it and uniformly the answer was "watch the first half of Full Metal Jacket". In 1989, that was Army Basic Training, minus the actual hitting. I've been a fan ever since. I own the movie on VHS and soon will on DVD and I usually only bother with the best part- the first half.
I'm posting this to get the count on this thread up so maybe it just might get his attention if forwarded. I would really love to see the Gunny on THR (even if he is a Jarhead ).
