In this excerpt from the Blu-ray bonus features, we learn about former Navy SEAL Harry Humphries (a guy with an impressive list of movie credits) and his role as military advisor on G.I. JOE: RETALIATION.

The movie stars Dwayne Johnson, Channing Tatum, Adrianne Palicki, D.J. Cotrona, Jonathan Pryce and Bruce Willis as the original G.I. Joe. In director Jon M. Chu's sequel to 2009's G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA, the team has to face a threat from within the government after they're blindsided by a military strike that takes out most of the group.
