Summary: Gunny Is The Man
Review: As a fan of this show(who watches it every chnce I get) I think that the DVD of the best of Season 1 is great. It highlights all the best episodes from the first season. I also really like the cool info about military gear and tactics past, present and future and the fact that Ermey presents it in a very cool way(this guy is a funny as hell).

I highly recommend this DVD for history and military buffs

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A boatload of fun and history
Review: I like the History Channel (aka the War Channel) a lot to begin with, but this show puts it over the top. Not only is R. Lee Ermey an amazing host, but he clearly relishes the job as well. That only adds to the fun. What other show has displays of firepower against communist watermelons, or does a home visit a-la MTV Cribs to the Gunny Sergeant's field tent? Plus each historical period or military device is presented in a quick but detailed fashion, with plenty of respect for all those in uniform who've served freedom over the years. 5 stars isn't high enough a rating for this first rate DVD.

Summary: I only know two things that come from Texas....
Review: If you are a fan of R Lee Ermey from Full Metal Jacket and are interested in military hardware past and present this is a great buy. The DVD extras leave a little to be desired, but Ermey's sense of humor combined with his giddiness for the military equipment make this DVD alot of fun. An example of the witty sense of humor is the take off of MTV's cribs showing Ermey's command tent from the series. An ex Marine drill instructor combined with MTV style left me rolling on the couch. I recommend for anyone who wants to start learning about military equipment to people who have knowledge already. Semper Fi
