Ronald Lee Ermey (born March 24, 1944) is a former U.S. Marine Corps drill instructor and later Golden Globe-nominated actor, often playing the roles of authority figures, such as Gunnery Sergeant Hartmann in Full Metal Jacket, Mayor Tilman in the Alan Parker film Mississippi Burning and Sheriff Hoyt in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake. In Fallout Tactics, he voiced General Simon Barnaky and one of his lines from the ninety minute pilot episode for Space Above and Beyond was referenced in Fallout 2 by Dornan.

He currently hosts Lock N' Load, a gun history program on The History Channel, where Ermey shoots old to modern weapons comparing them to each other. Ermey is also an official spokesman for Glock firearms, Tupperware, Hoover, and the Young Marines, and has also appeared in commercials for Coors Light and Dick's Sporting Goods.
