Steve McQueen – Tank Driver For The Marine Corps

Considering that he needed a divorce attorney on not one but two occasions, and judging by his issues with the law, actor Steve McQueen was a real troublemaker. Another thing that proved his rebellious ways was his military service which lasted for about three years. “The King of Cool” tried out a number of different jobs until he decided to join the Marine Corps in 1947. Soon after his enlisting, he got promoted to Private First Class, but due to his irresponsible behavior and taking really long weekends, he got demoted to Private seven times. However, we must pay him credit for saving a few Marines by pulling them out of a tank just minutes before it was too late. We hope his heirs benefited from a life insurance when he passed away in 1980.
