He and R. Lee Ermey gave the best performances as drill sargeants/instructors in the movies.

RIP Sir. He was a great man, on and off the screen. He did a lot of work with youth and has raised a lot of boys into men. He will be missed.

Iron Eagle, Office and a Gentlemen, and don't forget he played the alien in Enemy Mine - a damn good Sci-Fi movie from the mid-80s.
