CELEBRITIES WHO SERVED IN THE MILITARY Take a look at that photo! It's certainly not the Drew Carey we have grown to know and love via our television screens. Before he was making us laugh as a comedian, actor, and TV personality, Carey was working a much more serious role. After struggling in university, Carey enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve from 1980 - 1986 as corporal. If we never saw the photo, we definitely wouldn't believe it! According to Carey, he adopted his trademark crew cut and horn-rimmed glasses during his time of service. Things didn't go too well for Carey immediately after his mili-tary career came to an end. He worked jobs that weren't right for him, including being a bank teller in Las Vegas and work-

ing as a waiter at Denny's. He eventually found his feet in the comedy world and started making people laugh with his standup routines.

This Colombian American actress is so glamorous it's hard to picture her anywhere but the red carpet. A fairly recent talent, you might recognize Zulay Henao from films such as Fighting, Takers, Hostel: Part II, The Single Moms Club, and True Memoirs of an Inter-national Assassin. If you haven't seen any of those, it's highly likely you've still seen Henao looking absolutely stunning in basically every photo taken of her. When she graduated from high school, Henao was at a bit of a loss when it came to her career. She decided to enlist in the United States Army, where she spent three years serving her country. We're not sure if Henao's time in the Army paved the way for her acting career, but it certainly seems that way. After being discharged she enrolled in The New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts almost immediately.

An actor on both the stage and the big screen, James Earl Jones is best known for the parts where he can't physically be seen. He attended the University of Michigan and declared pre-med as his major and enrolled in ROTC, a group in which he excelled. He dis-covered that pre-med wasn't his passion and switched to drama, and graduated in 1955. After graduating from university, Jones was re-cruited into the Army. The Korean War was gaining momentum so he fully expected to see

combat. He was commissioned in 1953 and attended Officers Basic Course and became a second lieutenant. Afterwards, he attended Ranger School which he claims to have washed out of. Despite the intensity of the military action in Korea, Jones and his unit were sent to construct a cold-weather training command in Colorado near Leadville. His battalion focused on training full-time, and Jones was promoted to first lieutenant before being discharged. Jones left the military for two reasons. A superior officer recommended that he take time to himself to decide whether or not he wanted to pursue the military as a full-time career. Secondly, he believed that reenlisting was a viable option in case acting couldn't sustain him financially. In light of his success as an actor, Jones never participated in further military service. After the military, Jones became a successful actor in television, film, and on stage. In his long and illustrious career, he's been nominated for numerous Emmy, Golden Globe, Tony and Academy Awards, with two Emmy wins, two Golden Globe wins, and an honorary Oscar to his credit. Along the way, he's inhabited roles in many famous films, including Darth Vader from the Star Wars series, Thulsa Doom from Conan the Barbarian, Lt. Lothar Zogg in Dr. Strangelove, King Zamunda in Coming to America, Mufasa in The Lion King, and even the "voice" of CNN. With no signs of slowing down, Jones continues to act to this day.
