In the spirit of Slothropian Appearances:  following the Texas 
Chainsaw Massacre narration, we see Larroquette in WWII (!) as a
Marine fighter pilot in the South Pacific, as depicted in the tv 
show "Black Sheep Squadron" (or "Baa Baa Blacksheep" I can't 
remember which-- maybe both).  This is the one with Robert Conrad, 
otherwise famous for asking people to knock a battery off his 
shoulder. Time period is sometime late seventies, I think.

Not that I devote significant chunks of time to following the life
and works of John Larroquette mind you.  No more than the next guy.
