[clean]

Sgt. Slaughter: Pro Wrestling's Drill Sergeant

Beetle Bailey: Sunday Morning Soldier

Capt. Benjamin J. Willard: (Apocalypse Now) "Everyone gets everything he wants. I wanted a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one. Brought it up to me like room service. It was a real choice mission, and when it was over, I never wanted another."

Captain America: Marvel's Military Superhero

Private Gomer Pyle: TV's Marine Mess-up

Col. Robert E. Hogan: Made Nazi Prison Camps Funny

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: (Full Metal Jacket) "You will not laugh, you will not cry!"

Sgt. Michael Vronsky: (The Deer Hunter) Don't ask him to play Russian roulette

John J. Rambo: (First Blood/Rambo: First Blood Part II) Stallone's veteran pushed too far

Sgt. Rock: Fighting for America in the DC Universe

Private John Winger: (Stripes) "We're soldiers; but we're American soldiers. We've been kickin' ass for 200 years. We're 10 and 1."

GySgt Hartmann was played by R. Lee Ermey (Mail Call), who is a Marine Vietnam Vet, so he is both a fictional and real veteran all in the same body. Ooh Rah.
