Also Don Knotts was a DI I could see him being a very tough DI to have.

Yikes, Mr. Chicken was a DI? He would have been a difficult one to have. I could see a lot of people underestimating how tough he was.

hey dont forget about Mr rogers, theres 2 singers that are Marines but i dont know there names off hand... and Walt Disney was too. but he got a dishonerable discharge

[DearMilSpouse]

Again check our Famous Marine Rumors page. Mr. Rogers never served in the military. Nor did Walt Disney.

I had looked at the famous Marines some time ago. I had forgot that it was there for some reason. I guess I was wrong about Don Knotts but I learned it (wrongly) from my Drill Instructor. Good looking out Bridget

there are a couple of Marines that wasn't on the list like Bea Arthur
I pulled the list from http://www.mcnews.info/mcnewsinfo/marines/divisions/factfile.shtml
So I think it can be trusted.

[DearMilSpouse]

Yea I have more than that as well. I just haven't uploaded the new list to the server because I am breaking down the pages because the pages are getting so long. Once I have them broke into 26 pages for every letter of the alphabet I will get it uploaded to the server.
