The convict and I really enjoyed his work.
I wonder if He ever cleaned his Glock?????? To the best of our memories He had 30,000 rounds through the gun and had NOT cleaned the gun. He told other Folks to clean there guns but He thought that running the gun extremely dirty PROVED it's reliability.

What a character, they broke the mold with him....He will be missed....In the movie "Full Metal Jacket" Director Stanley Kubrick hired Gunny to be a technical advisor to teach the actor hired for the part how to bark like a real drill instructor so Gunny started spouting off all kinds of insults and when he got to "I bet you're the kind of guy who would f*** a person in the a** and not even have the common courtesy to give him a reach around".....Kubrick fell out laughing and hired him for the part on the spot....Nobody could have done it better!.......RIP Marine.....
