R. Lee Ermey died of pneumonia? I don't think so. Former Marine Ermey was simply orechestrating a counterattack. Pneumonia, your days are numbered.
I remember him as Dr. Gregory House's "father" in House, M.D. If I recall correctly, Dr. House described Mr. Ermey's characer John House as a man with, "...an insane moral compass."
Thank-you for your service to our country. Rest in peace, Sir!

I watched Full Metal Jacket when I was 10 years old. His character scared the crap out of me, and deep down is probably the reason I never entered the military. LOL He was a good guy, and he'll be missed by many. May he Rest In Peace.
Was only watching Full Metal Jacket last week great film ,one of those films that I never get bored of seeing over and over again.
