As a Golden Globe nominee and Boston Society of Film Critics Award-Winner for Best Supporting Actor in director Stanley Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket," R. Lee Ermey is one of the most successful and talented actors working in film and television today.

Ermey spent eleven years in the Marine Corps, which included one-and-a-half tours in Viet Nam. He rose to the rank of gunnery sergeant and was medically retired for injuries received. Using G.I. Bill benefits, Ermey enrolled at the University of Manila in the Philippines, where he studied drama. Francis Ford Coppola was filming "Apocalypse Now" in the area and cast Ermey in a featured role. He has since gone on to star in over 40 feature films, 13 "made-for-TV" movies, and an occasional prestigious guest-starring role.
