That’s a shame; always enjoyed his work. Kubrick actually brought him on for Full Metal Jacket as a consultant and wasn’t planning for him to be in the movie, but he was so good at coming up with the insults and things like that, Kubrick cast him in the role, and then the rest is history.

R. Lee Ermey was good in Saving Silverman, too.

The coup de gras will always be Senior Drill Instructor Hartman.
