He served 6 years in the Marines and did 2 tours in a war no one wanted to fight in

It's funny that I used to think that he looked a little under-muscular to be a Marine Corps sergeant and, here, I'm learning that he previously served 6 years in the actual Marine Corps. I now feel a little dumb for ever wondering why Cameron didn't hire someone who looked more the part.

“The Sarge is gone! Let’s get the F*** outta hear!”

Sad to hear, it was his performance in Aliens that the video game series Halo copied after with their Space Marine Sergeant.

We’ve now lost Hudson and the Sarge.
