Unhappy Re: Lee Ermy

I meet him once on the set of Mail Call about 14 yrs. ago. They used my Harley WLA for a shoot. He took it for a ride, what a laugh that was with the hand shifter. RIP

Wow, I wish I could have met him. Do you still have the WLA?

Re: Lee Ermy

He portrayed the hard bitten, tough talking and rough shod Marine Gunnery Sgt thru and thru. Maybe because he was all that and more. A US Marine Gunnery Sgt. and a real Patriot. He has always had my respect as such. He will be missed by many I'm sure. RIP Gunny.

Oh you’re new here aren’t you? Welcome to the forum. To post a picture to a thread, when you hit reply, above the text box where you type there is an emblem of a paper clip, tap or click it, then choose the images you want to upload. Once you’re done at the bottom of the screen click close window and it will take you back. Then just click submit reply as you normally would. Hope that helps.
