'The Boys In Company "C"' is listed under R. Lee Ermey Filmography -
Theatrical; on the side of the box of his "Motivational Figure". So at
least it's covered there!

Back to MV stuff...
I bought an M100 a few months back... Anyone know where I can get some
take off or repro fenders for it? One place better than another,
perhaps? Mine had been hacked up by some goof with a torch...

As usual, more stuff for sale!

The odd thing is that he was a DI in "The Boys in Company C" (1978) nine
years before "Full Metal Jacket" (1987) and one year before his part in
"Apocalypse Now" (1979) as a helicopter pilot yet his own website makes
no mention of Company C at all anywhere, his film history according to
him starts with Apocalypse. Some legal issue maybe???

BTW, as someone stated on one message board, we've been waiting for
Company C to come out on DVD longer than the war was.

later,
