Ahhhhh DAMMIT.
Besides Bruce Lee, he was the other primary role model.Wild, Wild West or Baa Baa Black Sheep, it really didn't matter.
Actual martial artist, made it a point of pride to do his own stunts whenever possible and making the name Greg Boyington a household word.
Sadly I was to learn he was somewhat of an arrogant jackass who loved to start conflicts in South Florida clubs with his bodyguards in tow, but nobody is perfect.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

"Baa Baa Black Sheep"/"Black Sheep Squadron" was one of my favorite4 shows back in high school. Of course, I didn't know or care that it bore no resemblance to the operational realities of VMF-214 in the Pacific. The Corsairs were beautifully restored, though.

My parents wouldn't let us watch WWW because it was "too violent." My how times have changed!

Wild Wild West was epic. I was a big fan, you know when I watched Once upon a time in Hollywood, I thought of Robert Conrad.

When I was little I enjoyed the WWW reruns and also like the flying show.Originally Posted by The_War_Wagon
Around the time of the battery commercials there was some lore floating around that he tried to enlist in the marines with his best friend from childhood. He never shipped because he lied and was 15, but his 17 year old friend did and died in Korea.
May just fall into the Mr. Rogers wore long sleeves to cover up his confirmed kill tats from his sniper days in VN lore category,
But it would explain the donations.

The Wild Wild West has always been a favorite of mine. I remember each episode was: "The Night of...........". The opening credits animation brings back memories as well. And of course an arch villain in the form of the diminutive Doctor Miguelito Quixote Loveless (Michael Dunn) always spiced up an episode - too bad he died at age 38 in the early 1970's.
