Drew Carey
This one gets most by surprise, as the host of “Whose Line Is It Anyway” doesn’t look like a G.I. Joe type. But the fact is that Drew Carey did indeed serve in the U.S. Marine Corps during the 1970’s and 1980’s.

Sidney Poitier
Not everyone knows two very important facts about Sidney Poitier. The first is that he was the first African-American to win the Best Actor award at the Oscars. The second thing is that when he was just 16 years old, he lied at the recruitment office in order to enlist to fight during World War II. Later though he would fake being insane in order to leave the military.
