Christopher Walken brings a wacky
comical yet strict sergeant to be to
life in a way that only he can to me job
is to whip a group of naive draftees
into shape during World War two while
constantly clashing with the recruit
that makes myself prepared you’re wrong
oh yes Oh what oh nothing
based on the play by Neil Simon the
comedy-drama sees to me as somewhat of a
friendlier version of the hard-nosed
hard-drinking platoon leader who puts
his men through hell
eccentric sadistic and cruel in his ways
sergeant to be perfectly balanced of
humor man male cruelty to earn a spot on
that list yes we have to look for
another way around men
number nine drill sergeant Forrest Gump
why did you put that weapon together so
quickly go you told me to be lucky you
better make sure you answer every
question from this man with yes drill
sergeant although only appearing in the
film for mere minute
this character is limited screen time is
memorable nonetheless despite screaming
and force base for every scene he’s in
seems to be giving him compliments also
you wouldn’t really be able to tell til
sergeant manages to mold Forrest into
the perfect soldier via instructive neck
vein popping screaming indiscipline
allowed fresh and overbearing just how
we like our drill sergeant damn it go
you’re goddamn genius that’s the most
outstanding answer I’ve ever heard you
must have a got-damn IQ of a hundred and
sixty number eight US Marine Corps major
Benson Winifred Payne major Payne Adam
oh hey I am a place in major Franklin as
your commanding officer he is the US
Marine Corps sergeant who literally
sleeps with his eyes open they are a
bunch of delinquent outcasts who have
come in last place in the Virginia
Military games eight years in a row
what’s the worst that can happen when
major Payne takes over the platoon

discipline what does it mean to you
Samantha let me tell you all something
whoa had made me bad panelist and when a
man against eyeballing me and make my no
jack up he’s not about fair or unfair
he’s about achieving the mission even
the boogey man in the closet isn’t safe
for major pain you kind of want to feel
bad for the kid fees training but he’s
just too over the top to not like or at
least be entertained by
[Music]
guess what very good number seven
sergeant-major Mulcahy glory Mary and
Joseph what have we here Bonnie Prince
Charlie and his little toy bayonet a
tough Irish sergeant major it’s up to
Mulcahy to train a regiment of all black
soldiers to fight during the American
Civil War turning a group of freed
slaves into one of the first military
units in the Union Army is no small task
but luckily okay he is not to it his
tough methods draw the attention of the
commanding officer Colonel Shawn who
views them as being too severe the boys
your friend is he we grew up together
yet let him grow up some more but Shawn
comes to relight them okay he is in fact
training the men fairly and in only
preparing them to the extreme challenges
they will be facing at war I said get up
forgot to dump that long sergeant deal
with that man
number six regimental sergeant major
Monty Python’s the meaning of life
thousand-aire gulping so you never seen
the under God before what happens when
the Monty Python crew turned their
sights to the military it results in a
farcical preposterous drill sergeant of
course
yes Hodge right
okay go the regimental sergeant majors
loud often high-pitched voice Wicky
upward inflection and curly mustache
make it not only one of the funniest
drill sergeants in film but also want to
be funnier Monty Python characters yes I
got a book I’d quite like to read by a
very good offense now when his squad
designs they would all rather be doing
something else
the sergeant lets them leave one by one
until he is left by himself to march to
square rather be at the pictures or
suppose all right okay go buddy all the
other ones coming through
number five sergeant first class Hulka
stripe we have a comedian in our midst
will you take this comedian outside and
watch him do 50 pushups
in a comedy that features the likes of
Bill Murray John Candy and Harold Ramis
Warren Oates more
hold his own and miss side-splitting
portrayal of sergeant Hulka so you
better hit them muffs my little babies
or sergeant Hulka with the big toes go
see how for he can stick it up your ass
he comes off as a cliched hard-ass drill
sergeant but watching him try to mold
the group of misfits he’s in charge of
into soldiers without killing one or all
of them makes all cup more humorous than
anything else
constantly butting heads with the
recruits and almost getting hit with a
mortar Oh God
that’s his handful full of his recruit
throat that is sergeant does this mean
we’re through for the day and yeah
number four di Fitch jarhead you the
maggot whose father served in Vietnam so
yes there are standing did he have the
balls to die there
sir no sir too bad much like the drill
sergeant from Forrest Gump drill
instructor Fitch head limited screen
time but made an impression down the
last ditch we’ll get in your face and
play with your head aloud always
screaming drill instructor isn’t shy
about implying that your girlfriend is
sleeping with someone else
orbit you were in love with him and he
will make you do push-ups because of it
do you have a girlfriend Swampert sorry
yes sir yes again mother Jodi’s banging
her right now get on your face and get
me 25 for every time she gets this month
the vulgar abusive things that come out
of his mouth will lead even the hardest
men to question whether joining the army
was a good idea and of course having
your head bashed into a chalkboard
because you can’t draw definitely
doesn’t help either what are you even
doing here number three
gunnery sergeant Daniel Foley an officer
and a gentleman
there’s no fly ball in me four I’ll give
you AI balls up to shock us and scope
you to death sergeant Foley is a
completely ruthless and brutal drill
sergeant who puts Richard Gere’s
character through hell he pushes him
hard
abusing him both physically and
emotionally but it’s because deep down
Foley has a good heart you want to
survive bad enough to stop me pussy are
you reliant on my generosity my love of
humanity to stop me from killing Europe
despite the cruel treatment he shows to
his men throughout the film something
about him tells you he actually cares
and has the best intentions despite the
fact having
constantly screaming your face is not
what you would want on a day-to-day
basis
who was God the junior was so convincing
in the role that he won both an Academy
Award and a Golden Globe for his
portrayal of Foley truly an officer and
a gentleman you really want to be a man
you got another one of those little
girls didn’t getting up your daddy’s
attention coming in once in a Sun sigue
number two career sergeant Zim starship
troopers and your senior drill
instructor career sergeant Rick fuckin I
got
them is a hard-ass drill sergeant in
ways no others on this list are he won’t
think twice about throwing a knife that
is cadets breaking their arms or
kneeling on their throats until they
pass out and once you’re incapacitated
he’ll simply call for a medic and
continue his abuse of the ones who are
still left standing see that armory run
around run run take a break when when a
terrace is destroyed then voluntarily
Peaks into motion to private just so he
can kick some bug but what better man is
there to train soldiers to squash bugs

overflowing with badassery then still
stands out with his over-the-top tactics
and persona

number one gunnery sergeant Hartman Full
Metal Jacket you’re the lowest form of
life on earth you’re not even giving me
killer nothing but on an organized grab
a stick pieces of amphibian shit
portrayed by former US Marine Corps
Staff Sergeant and real-life drill
instructor earlier me sergeant Hartman
could be considered the mould almost
every other on-screen drill sergeant is
made from why why is your footlocker
Allah one thing in this world that I
hate it is a footlocker you know that
don’t you his sole purpose is to turn
recruits into hardened disciplined
killing machine for his beloved Corps
and he won’t tolerate anything else

jelly doughnut in said footlocker jelly

will be there to put the entire unit
through hell all while the most
defensive insults come out of his mouth

drew from his real-life military
experiences and it earned him a Golden
Globe nomination as well as the top spot
