While unconfirmed, General Buzz Grunt is probably based on[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coach_Buzzcut <u>Coach Bradley Buzzcut</u>] from MTV's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beavis_and_Butt-Head <u>Beavis and Butt-Head</u>].

Both characters are based on a very common drill sergeant stereotype and their names both reference a military-style haircut, but they have nothing else in common. Examples of dozens of characters like this are listed here: [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DrillSergeantNasty <u>http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DrillSergeantNasty</u>]. It's much more likely that Buzz was meant to be an archetypical character in that mold.
