HONOLULU — The actor best known for playing "Gomer Pyle" in "The Andy Griffith Show" and a spinoff comedy in the 1960s has married his male partner of 38 years.

Hawaii News Now reports Jim Nabors and his partner, Stan Cadwallader, traveled from their Honolulu home to Seattle to be married on Jan. 15.

Gay marriage became legal in Washington state last month.

The couple met in 1975 when Cadwallader was a Honolulu firefighter. Cadwallader is 64.

Nabors, 82, says he's been open about his homosexuality to co-workers and friends but never acknowledged it to the media before.

Nabors played Gomer Pyle in "The Andy Griffith Show" and "Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C."

Never watched The Andy Griffith Show so I immediately thought this was Vincent D'Onofrio, the Gomer Pyle of Full Metal Jacket. :p
Now I feel like I missed the joke in the movie, though.
