    Met a Celeb today

    I went to my local WalMart to look for cheapish 5.56 range fodder and while making my way to sporting goods I heard a PA announcement telling customers that R. Lee Ermey was signing autographs in sporting goods. WTF? Did I hear what I think I heard? Sure enough, there was the Gunny. I got an autograph and a picture opportunity. He seemed to be a very kind person.



    Sorry if my post is juvenile but.....I just met R. Lee Ermey!!!!!!

    He has been a fixture at the Conyers, GA GSSF match for a few years and he is just a terrific guy. That's great you got to meet him.

    Today... is Christmas! There will be a magic show at zero-nine-thirty! Chaplain Charlie will tell you about how the free world will conquer Communism with the aid of God and a few Marines!

    I "met" R. Lee in Quantico in 05 during a book signing.
    Was not impressed.

    I liked him best in "The Siege of Firebase Gloria."
