Beautiful video you guys. Thank you!

"But always remember this, Marines die. That's what we're here for. But the Marine Corps lives forever. And that means, you live forever." RIP Gunny. See you at the Gates.

He was the Real Deal. He was a great actor, too. He will be missed. Semper Fi...Gunny.

One of my fave lines is: "You will be ministers of death, praying for war!"

From a fellow Brit, I just want to say you Americans had a national treasure and should be so proud to have had him within the US Marines. It was sad when I heard of his passing a few months ago, I loved the movies he was in, a talented actor and will be deeply missed. From across the atlantic, R.I.P Gunny!

Gunny isn't dead. He ascended to Heaven, God called him because He needed someone to kick His angels into shape for the coming Apocalypse.

I nominate 'the gunny' to be the next face carved onto Mt. Rushmore!

Miss you Gunny. You were a real credit to this country sir.

Saw this treasure in "Boys from Company C" in theatre with my uncle. He was a Navy Seal. The Gunny was my idea of what a man should be. Strong, but not a bully; Smart, but not a wise-ass. He should be proud, honest, and live with honor in all parts of your life. I raised my sons with these lessons. All 3 are tributes to what I learned. 1 son was in the Army, and his oldest is in the Army now. So Gunny please watch over my grandson if you can spare the time while training Angels.

Hard to believe you left us. I guess your mission is complete but your legacy will live on. Rest in peace.

You were the best drill instructor anyone could ask for, Sergeant Ermey. You will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace, Sir. *salutes*

From one proud Nam Vet to another....Semper Fi Gunny. RIP

P.S. I cried when i heard he died. I did it privately. I just loved him an would have followed him into battle anytime anywhere.

My first time seeing this. Rrquest permission to cry again Sir!

He was a legend

Rest In Peace, Sir.

I have been a fan ever since i seen the THE BOYS IN COMPANY C RIP GUNNY

I'm proud to say there is a picture of this truly great man just to the left and above my head as I type this. Big big fan. RIP Gunny.

From a retired brother in arms Squid to a well respected, self disciplined, all American Jarhead, R.I.P Gunny. Thank you for your service..SIR!!

Damn he’s going to be missed, there will be no one in my life time to play the part like he done it. And that’s because he lived it in a time when men was men. God got him a warrior to lead and train the angels for the biggest war ever Armageddon.

Semper Fi Gunny Thank you for your service OORAH

Marines do die but the marine corps lives on forever so that means you live forever-Drill Sgt Hartman full metal jacket

I cannot help myself to watch it again it would be an honor to serve with you sir you’re a great man and I promise you one thing you’ll never be forgotten🇺🇸💯

The British military do things rather differently but The Gunny had something special which appealed, irrespective of nationality. Not only did he talk the talk he walked the walk (not sure about the kilt tho'). A true legend in his own lifetime. Respect to The Gunny.

legends never die just MIA. Semper Fi

When u were born in the 80s, he's the official drill sergeant.. Hurhaa

RIP Gunny!! We met 15 years ago, what an honor, what a man! Semper Fi brother, till we meet again!

Thank you for this video, i miss R lee, God speed my friend.

God I miss him. Semper Fi

He meant a lot to the US Military. May he rest in well-deserved peace

rest in peace ermey...you had the best damn war face the world has ever seen

HE KNOW STANDS GAURD AT THE GATES OF HEAVEN BECAUSE THAT IS THE NEXT DUTY ASSIGNMENT FOR ALL MARINES.

I thank all you service men and women. You all deserve to be honored by all of us that benefits from you all. Thank you.

He’s now in charge of those Marines guarding the pearly gates. Semper Fi

thanks from a 3/1 scout 68-69 family loves you and your fam

A hero of mine he will be sadly missed

A friend of mine was the son of Stanley Kubrik's personal assistant at the time FMJ was filmed. He was around 11 or 12 and helped out on set and remembers Gy Sgt Ermey as a lovely, kind and honourable man. For my part his performance in that film has absolutely immortalised him - an absolute masterpiece.

The Marine Corp lives forever, and that means you live forever. R.I.P. Gunny.

RIP Gunney, much respect. Thank you for serving, I salute you,Semper Fi!!

RIP GUNNY ! SEMPER FI , Carry on!!!

What a guy!

I will be attending boot camp at Paris island in September to be a proud Marine. That the best branch of armed forces the USA has to offer. I plan on making a career out of the marines and become a marine raider. R. Lee Ermey was astounding, upstanding man. Thank you Gunny. You sir, did America proud as I will do my best to make lady liberty proud. God bless the USA and God bless THE Gunny 🙏🇺🇸

Ronald Lee Ermey april 15 2018 :( rest in peace, im gonna miss his face :/ HOORAH HOORAH HOORAH old friend

Chestey showed him the way into heaven. I dont know who took point but. He got there goddamnit.

Nothing but respect

I swear Lee Ermey and my dad we're both cut from the same cloth.... I believe I'm a better man for that. Thank you Dad.

Respect, Gratitude, and Thanks for being what’s best in our Military!

USMC Respect ! God bless you forever Sir ! Even God, who doesn't have a last name !... Cares about us all who fights for him and our country our ways of life our countries ! A serious shout out to all of the people you made it possible to have this video up ! Hoorah !... Sincerely little brother Paul~ Semper Fi~

Gunny, as you stand watch in your new post God can rest assure that not even the devil is going to get past you. We'll see you down range Brother. Semper Fi !!!

He is a Marine, in the dictionary by the word marine they're just need a picture of him, no words necessary. Semper Fi,I know your among thousands of your Brothers, my Father being one CPL WILLIAM EARL CAINE 1ST MARINE DIVISION WW2 SCOUT SNIPER he passed away March 18 2018 at 95 years of age, he served with COL CHESTER PULLER and when the War ended he went to China to guard trains from the communist. He is my hero.

You’ll be missed down under as well Gunny he may have left us but he will never be forgotten

Kind of curious who gives a thumbs down for military 🇺🇸🤔 This is the most awesome video of. his life I have seen thank you

Great man. An icon and legend. His LOOK and his VOICE made him so unique. He will live in infamy in Full Metal Jacket!

38 people didn’t have the gear packed to serve in his beloved corps

GOD GIVE US BACK RONALD LEE ERMEY AND WILL GIVE U BILL MAHER !!

Rest In Peace, Gunny. You were a great insperation to us Service Members.

He sounds like the DI my brother had when he was in the USMC in 1964. My brother hated his guts but admitted that the DI was the reason he survived Vietnam. He said the DI's cried when they graduated boot camp. WOW.

One of my closest friends, and if you ever learn about his brother, it's because I was friends with him too. No one ever knows about him. That's who Lee truly was... Semper Fidelis, Captain T, U.S.M.C. Like you always told me, Marines are not allowed to did without permission. Get some...

R.I.P SIR. 🇺🇸🙏💪

Not only from me but from the entire US Army, thank you for your service Gunny! You will be missed

I am a ARMY Doggie 18 X ray much respect.

What a great man. He deserves this tribute.

He was a precious American jewel that can never be replaced. He was one of a kind.

MAIL CALL!!!!!! Gunny was one of a kind. It was an honor to meet him when I had the chance.

Love this man !!!!

god love that Marine. He's guarding the gates now...

Thank you Gunny! I know many vets in America and their families are proud of the dedication you showed to all of us during your life here on earth. We love you brother and may you forever RIP. Til Valhalla! Semper Fi

To those who find the music volume in the background, or the style/content of the music to be in poor taste I would offer my apologies for poor editing in trying to balance the track and the video sounds. If you had a problem with the track itself and its content then I am sorry you feel that way; whether it be the style of it or the meanings/interpretations of it. For me, I felt like "coming home" meant returning home after war/service and interpreted it in this case as Ronald coming home as in, home, where one goes after life--as your beliefs may direct. I have the most huge respect for him and it is why I made this :) Please show respect as well, for this man.

Salutes! Semper fi, Gunny! RIP soldier!

Gunny 👍 thanks for post !!! Amazing 😱 😍

Awesome.

RIP Gunny and thank you for your service.

We"ll miss you "GUNNY"

You are an Iconic figure in The US MARINERS COR

Oh I’m so sorry. I thought he was just an actor. Never knew he was a gunner. Big big respect to him 💔💜xx

I met him at the San Diego Marine Corps milliary Ball. Great guy!

I was entering my senior year in September 1987 when FMJ was released. a month later I signed the papers to enlist and a year later I shipped to MCRD San Diego. the best decision I made was joining the Marine Corps

RIP. Respect SIR

Rest In Peace, Gunny! Your Marine Brothers and Sisters have The Watch! Semper Fi, Brother! :(

RIP. I loved him, an honorable man. It doesnt matter what uniform you wear honor is honor and a man a man!

This guy had such magnetism as if he was born to do what he did with his life. RIP Gunny
