For the last day of Black History Month; Before he nearly pounded Rocky Bslboa into submission in Rocky 3 & went on to fame as B.A.Baracus on the hit TV show A-Team, Mr. T was a member of the biggest team of them all – the U.S. Army . Originally known as Laurence Tureaud , Mr. T served in the Army’s #militarypolicecorps in the mid-70s. In November 1975 he was awarded a Letter of Commendation by his Drill Sergeant, and in a cycle of 6000 troops he was elected “Top Trainee of the Cycle” and promoted to Squad Leader. In July 1976 he was punished after being given a detail of chopping down trees during Annual Training at #fortmccoy in #wisconsin , but his Platoon Sergeant did not specify how many trees that were to be cut down – so Tureaud single-handedly chopped down over 70 trees in the span of 3 1/2 hours before being relieved of the detail. After his discharge from the Army Tureaud tried out for the #nfl #greenbaypackers but failed to make the team because of a knee injury. However, his Army #training served him well in his next job, as a bouncer at #chicago nightclubs , where he began cultivating his ultra-tough “Mr. T” persona. Perhaps the first “ celebrity bodyguard” and certainly one of the most famous, Mr. T eventually found fame in the movies and TV, and currently lives in Los Angeles.

Remembering you and the many others I’ve lost during my time in the Army. When I walk past the places you told me you wanted to visit in NYC I take a moment and appreciate it, for you. Until we meet again. #memorialdayweekend #mdw2018 #army #brother #fortmccoy #basictraining #friend #soldiers #myhearthurts
