Statement from R. Lee Ermey's long time manager, Bill Rogin:

It is with deep sadness that I regret to inform you all that R. Lee Ermey ("The Gunny") passed away this morning from complications of pneumonia. He will be greatly missed by all of us. It is a terrible loss that nobody was prepared for. He has meant so much to so many people. And, it is extremely difficult to truly quantify all of the great things this man has selflessly done for, and on behalf of, our many men and women in uniform. He has also contributed many iconic and indelible characters on film that will live on forever. Gunnery Sergeant Hartman of Full Metal Jacket fame was a hard and principled man. The real R. Lee Ermey was a family man, and a kind and gentle soul. He was generous to everyone around him. And, he especially cared deeply for others in need.

There is a quote made famous in Full Metal Jacket. It's actually the Riflemen's Creed. "This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine."

There are many Gunny's, but this one was OURS. And, we will honor his memory with hope and kindness. Please support your men and women in uniform. That's what he wanted most of all.

Semper Fi, Gunny. Godspeed.

 

You are nothing but unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian  shit. 

Met him about 8 years ago. Nicest dude IRL, far from his characters in cinema. RIP

The Full Metal Jacket opening is one of the best military training scenes ever. RIP

One of many great in FMJ. RIP

 

JESUS H CHRIST! .... IF THERE WASN'T  DICK HEADS LIKE YOU THERE WOULD BE NO THIEVERY IN THIS WORLD! ... HOLY JESUS!

 

RIP Gunny. Ooh-rah!

While I was in Bootcamp at MCRD San Diego in 98, he was walking around the base.  We were getting smoked outside in the pit, he stops by and tells us that the fun has just begun..smiled and told our DI to kill us../csb

I know it's not a popular opinion, but I will argue to the day I die that Emery saved FMJ and subsequently created a totally different narrative of Kubrick's career.  The truth is, he 90% carried the first half of the movie (the other being d-Onofrio's underrated performance).  The second half falls off pretty precipitously.  Given that the vast bulk of RLE performance was adlibbed and doesn't rely on any of SK's technical wizardary, he's what keeps the film afloat.

Otherwise, SK doesn't have either a critical or box office success in the last two decades of his life and his obit looks a lot more like Milos Foreman's rather than what it is today.

RIP, Gunny.
