Sad Day......I got to hang with him when I was in boot camp in San Diego. He was filming CPO Sharkey,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.P.O._Sharkey WE spent 3 days filming and nothing we did was aired. He would bring us food, I really liked him as he treated all of the recruits great. We lost 3 days of Navy training because of the TV production we never got to touch a gun much less fire one. I always wondered about that I was unprepared to serve because of Don Rickles.
