Some well known Hollywood icons that served in the US Military.

8. Morgan Freeman, U.S. Air Force - Morgan Freeman had the acting bug at a very early age, but he also wanted to be a fighter pilot. So upon graduating high school in 1955, he turned down a partial drama scholarship and joined the Air Force. Life in the service was not what he imagined, however, and he never got to fly any planes. Instead, he served as a radar technician on the ground. Becoming dissatisfied with his choice, he told himself, "you are not in love with this; you are in love with the idea of this." He left the service after four years, headed west to Hollywood, and became God. Titty sprinkles.
