Post; Full Metal Jacket Trivia


Ok. The rules are fairly simple. I'll ask a question about the movie 'Full Metal Jacket' and the first person to answer it correctly wins 5 Milbucks.


First question:

What is Joker's last name in the movie?


EDIT: If you get a wrong answer, I'll PM you. This'll keep people from using the process of elimination in some questions.

Ok. Here's the answer.

Joker's REAL movie last name is "Davis". You only see his name once in the movie. It's when he's helping Pte. Pyle over the obstacle. It says it right on the back of his sweater.


If no one get's the question within 2 or 3 days, I'll answer it and put up another question.


Question 2: Why doesn't G/Sgt. Hartman like the name Lawrence? (This should be easy)
