30 caliber machine gun!!! "AHH! HA! HA!" Semper Fi. Ermey's most motivated dispatching of "The Enemy" among this "best of" batch? That's easy: via jeep-mounted. Of those 39 half-hour episodes, plus an hour special "Live from the Gulf," this disc highlights seven shows, each with in-the-field responses to viewer questions as diverse as "How does a land mine work? Where does the word 'Gung Ho' come from? How did WWI pilots shoot through their propellers? What were the different pieces of armor a medieval knight wore?" This usually requires, as in the case of that last quandary, the ol' Gunny to suit up and cross swords with experts, and at the same time, often defend peace-loving peoples from rampaging watermelons. Lee shows no signs of relenting command of one of TV's funniest and richly informative series. Just five episodes in, the weekly march of military minutia drew higher ratings than any other show on The History Channel, and with nearly three seasons under his spit-polished belt, R. Lee Ermey sent a button-down cable network runnin' home to momma when "Mail Call" debuted in August of 2002.
Most widely known as the fire-breathing drill instructor of Full Metal Jacket, veteran character actor and real-life "Gunny" R. "What makes them the best? I SAID SO, MAGGOT!!!"
