Drew Carey’s trademark haircut is a dead giveaway that he’s a military man. Long before hosting Whose Line is it Anyway? in 1981, Carey entered the United States Marine Corps Reserve. There, he served for six years. In fact, it was during his service that Carey first started performing stand-up comedy.
“While in the Marine Reserves, I was looking for a way to make some more money, and it was suggested that I try using my jokes,” Carey recalled. Today, the comedian likes to give back to the troops that once helped him find his voice. Carey regularly teams up with the United Services Organization to visits military bases in Iraq, where he performs comedy for troops!
