Don Knotts

He’s either Mr. Furley from Three’s Company or he’s Barney Fife from the Andy Griffith Show, but the truth is that he could be many things. When the world was at war in the 1940’s, he made it his duty to use his special comedic talent to lighten the mood for his fellow soldiers which is why he established a comedy group called “Stars and Stripes”.

Jimi Hendrix AKA the guitar god and all things music, really. Before he found fame he was actually a paratrooper in the well-known 101st Airborne Division of the U.S. Army. He discharged from the Army after an unsuccessful landing that broke his ankle. It was also his 26th jump.
