Rest in peace, Tully
Justin Tarr - Tully Pettigrew of The Rat Patrol - passed away suddenly... I believe on Friday. He was 72.
It's odd... I've been going through another of my nostalgia phases and just recently had been watching a number of Rat Patrol eps on YouTube and looking for fic. Just 2 weeks ago I even purchased a mail order zine, my first from that fandom. Hitch (Larry Casey) was my favourite in my youth and remains my fave but, over the last few weeks of re-watching these eps, I grew a new appreciation for Tully who stupidly didn't really appeal at all to me when I was a kid.
And now the man who played him is gone. Too sad. My heartfelt thoughts go out to his family and friends.
