20 celebrities you didn’t know were in the military – This will shock many! (With Pictures)

8. MC Hammer

Forget the parachute pants and “Can’t Touch This.” MC Hammer (also known as Stanley Kirk Burrell) served in the United States Navy. And he was darn proud of it, too! He was college age and belonged to the aviation united as a Storekeeper 3^rd Class, which he did for three years. Much like Ice T, he pursed his music as a full-time career after his work in the United States Armed Forces was over. That is when the world saw and heard his full musical prowess. Nowadays he is pretty much retired and is just doing his own thing without being hounded by the paparazzi.
