R Lee Ermy rocks.

that movie rocks...

move along maggots

From Wikipedia:

When Sgt. Hartman made the comment about Pvt. Cowboy giving a man a "reach around" the director stopped filming and asked what it was, and Ermey very matter-of-factly told him. Kubrick broke out into laughter and decided to keep it in the film.

As a matter of fact, did you know that Ermey was originally just hired as a technical adviser but when they got a load of him they just went ahead and gave the D.I. part to him. :)

QUOTE
Former US Marine Corps Drill Instructor R. Lee Ermey was not originally hired to play Gunnery Sgt. Hartman but as a consultant for the Marine Corps boot camp portion of the film. He performed a demonstration on videotape in which he yelled obscene insults and abuse for 15 minutes without stopping, repeating himself or even flinching - despite being continuously pelted with tennis balls and oranges. Stanley Kubrick was so impressed that he cast Ermey as Gunnery Sgt. Hartmann.

I agree.

However, I have NEVER seen a movie that so accurately portrays U.S.M.C. boot camp.
Well, except that there is a LOT more yelling. ;)

What he read was golden.

how can you shoot women and children? You just don't lead them as much

Strange that we are seeing the same thing in the year 2007.

It's the perfect satire to make the american public think about what they've allowed.

I've used lime before.
