Don Davis - Maj Gen Hammond

“Open the Iris!”

Don Davis who played Maj. Gen. George Hammond on Stargate SG-1 died June 29 of a heart attack, he was 65.

Davis’ final Stargate appearance is in Stargate: Continuum (pre-order the DVD here), the upcoming straight-to-DVD movie. He will also appear in the films Vipers, Woodshop and Far Cry. Back in the day he had stints in MacGuyver, X-Files and Twin Peaks.

He was one of my favorite characters on the show because he was a no-nonsense, humanistic leader with compassion and only went ‘by the book’ 98% of the time which showed he was amenable to innovation and having to break the rules once in a while to get shit done.

Here’s the SG1 Season-1 Profile of General Hammond.
