    My retired Marine brother shared has a pic of him and Gunny while stationed in Japan for NCO school. He got to have a few beers with him in a more personal setting. He said he was a real down to earth guy, loved the Corp and Country.

    Took me a minute to find the pic...it was quite a while ago, not sure of the year. My brother is the one on the left.

    He was an incredible man. Even had his own show. Here's one episode:
