“Are you about to call me an a**hole?”

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman… Of all the military guys on film, he’s got to be my favorite. Forget John Rambo. Forget Private Ryan.

To those unfamiliar with the character, he’s from Stanley Kubrick’s Full Metal Jacket, a movie about the Vietnam war most famous probably because of Sgt. Hartman and the immortal lines “Me so horny. Me love you long time” by a Vietnamese prostitute character. Hartman’s a drill sergeant on Parris Island the US Marine Corps Recruit Depot. Plainly speaking he kicks ass.

Anyway, here’s the best part of that movie. This should probably be reported as a violation on YouTube, but what the heck. There’s no better way to describe and understand him other than seeing him in action. Clip after the cut.
