He redefined the role of D.I. in the movies.

A GREAT GREAT GUY. Don't forget him in his first stunning performance in "The Boys of Company C." Rest in peace dear sir.

Gunny will be missed

I don't know much about Gunny, but I recall an anecdote about him being a technical advisor on being a DI in Full Metal Jacket and said he could do the job better than the actor.

The rest is history.

Even though it was a movie, I bet he put the fear of God into the actors during shooting.

He deserves every accolade and I hope he got rich. His featured role in "Boys" pre-dated FMJ by 9 years. Not sure what he did in between.
