Tribute to R. Lee Ermey

Gunny served as a DI in the Vietnam era Marines.  A time when we had to transform youth to hardened Marines in a matter of weeks.  He must have reflected back on the faces and names that left his training and prayed that they make it back.  He was a cream puff surrounded by tank armor.  His later years were nostalgic playing with the best of the best weapons, soldiers and things that go boom. He was a man that lived hard, looked tough, loved life and brought much to this life. Rest in Peace Gunny
