Sergeant Carter grew up in Wichita, Kansas. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: When wearing uniforms with ribbons, Carter often wears an Army Good Conduct Medal ribbon. Unless he served at least 3 years, (or one year in combat), he would not be eligible for that award since the Marine Corps also awards a Good Conduct Medal. moreMovie Connections:

Inspired by the storyline of Andy Griffith's hit motion picture "No Time For Sergeants" and fueled by the popularity of the "Andy Griffith Show's" delightfully naive gas station attendant, Gomer Pyle, it was a natural turn of events, having this erstwhile hayseed enter the United States Marine Corps -- at the Corps' (chuckle) peril.
"Gomer Pyle USMC" is one of the symbols of an era which took pride in its military and enjoyed the good natured innocence and honesty of the show's main character. I have no doubt there are many of us who wish that state of mind could still exist in the twenty-first century, unburdened by the threat of terrorism on the American home front.
