Sean Connery – Royal Navy

Before becoming the famous “Bond – James Bond,” Sean Connery first enlisted in the Royal Navy at the young age of 16. He only served for 3 years because he developed a stomach ulcer that threatened his health and put an untimely end to his military career. After being discharged, he moved on to a series of jobs and got into bodybuilding, which eventually paved the way for his career in modeling and film. The rest, as they say, is history but we are more than glad that he chose the path of acting instead of anything else.
