Goofs:

Factual errors: When wearing uniforms with ribbons, Carter often wears an Army Good Conduct Medal ribbon. Unless he served at least 3 years, (or one year in combat), he would not be eligible for that award since the Marine Corps also awards a Good Conduct Medal.

Quotes:

Alice Whipple: Harry, how long are we going to be here?
Harry Whipple: As long as it takes.
Alice Whipple: Well, I've got to get to the beauty parlor.
Harry Whipple: You're telling me.

Would like to have all 150 episodes on DVD

I enjoyed this show as a youngster and have not seen Gomer Plye USMC in years.

My new husband happens to be a retired Marine, Gunnery Sgt and he loved this show as well, being the "DI" he was.

This would make a wonderful father's day, birthday or a whatever gift to have all the episodes for him.

Hopefully it will happen!

Is it possible to have this collection on DVD???

So to all of you Gomer Pyle USMC fans, Get out there and vote for this wonderfully, funny, all time classic.
