LtCol Anthony Hale Gale (4th CMC) was the only CMC to be fired! He was only CMC for one year, 1819-1820. Irish born.....drunk![:D]

General Wilson enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve and was commisioned about 6 months after that, so he might count.
General Pate was enlisted in the Army for a little while before going to VMI.
