Also fun to watch his performances. The one bright spot in The Powers of Matthew Star.

He was amazing in An Officer and a Gentleman.
He should have been a bigger star. He was relegated to doing stuff like Iron Eagle and Jaws 3D.

Superb in An Officer And A Gentleman.
I also remember him in an episode of The Jeffersons when he played a friend of George's who was trying to put the moves on Weezy.
R.I.P.

He portrayed the second-best Gunnery Sergeant only behind R. Lee Ermey's memorable performance in Full Metal Jacket. Interestingly, Emery was considered for the role in An Officer and a Gentleman. Anyway, Gossett Jr. made history with his Oscar win but it's a shame it didn't lead to a bigger career. I also enjoyed his role as Fiddler in Roots. May he rest in peace.
