  • Mail Call, Gunny Ermey to MVPA Convention

    R. Lee Ermey, aka The Gunny, will be attending the MVPA Convention in Dayton on Friday afternoon 23 June, and all day Saturday 24 June.

    But he won't be alone. He'll be at this event with his "little honey" - the 1942 GPW that he drives on his History Channel show Mail Call. The jeep has been trailered across country and is already in place at Reading. I can't think of a better background for a photo with the Gunny than a jeep. (Lee thinks HE's the star of the show...but those of us on the G know better)

    After the Reading show, the jeep will stay on the east coast, and be delivered to the MVPA convention. After that, the jeep will be trailered back to LA for use in more Mail Call episodes.

    Gunny will be set up at a table selling and autographing his Mail Call: SNAFU dvd. Its an hour of hilarious mishaps and misfires from behind the scenes of Mail Call...two versions on the same dvd: "family friendly with the Gunny-language bleeped...and the raw "x-tra salty", un-censored Gunny.

    Those of you who have seen the Gunny at other shows know that he'll happily pose for pictures and chat it up with fans all night long. Having the jeep there and the "camp" is going to be a hoot.

    Gunny a Nice guy

    The Ohio Motor Pool wants to thank EVERYONE for coming and participating, it was a banner show, Highest number of vehicles, most vendors, most attended, and a great place to have it. After closing down everything on Sunday I made it back home across the state at about 9pm.

    Here are a few photos a gentleman has posted, http://imageevent.com/vc40wc41/daytonmvpa?n=1&z=2&x=1&c=4&m=24&w=0&p=0
    I took 234 photos..it'll be a while till I go through them.
    Hanging out with the Gunny was fun too, heck of a nice guy. I had him sign my Air cleaner fording cover. My son went shopping with him in the vendor area. I got to ride in the 'little honey' Jeep.


    I will pass this information along, if you havent heard, History Channel is canceling Mail Call! Help if you can by dropping them a line or a letter, and let them know what you think!!
