Al Pacino has been a cop, leather guy and some kind of US Armed Forces guy. Serpico (1973) Cruising (1980) The Godfather Not a sailor, but close! Al Pacino never gets to play cowboys, the closest might be him playing an American revolutionary in Revolution (1985)

Paul Newman has been a cop, a construction worker, an "Indian" and a cowboy, possibly a biker and definitely a sailor. Fort Apache, The Bronx (1981) Harry and Son (1984) Hombre (1967) Not an Indian, but raised by Indians Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969) A bike, of sorts! Hud (1963) Does being in the actual navy count for anything?

John Travolta was both a cowboy and a construction worker in URBAN COWBOY. (extra points?) He was kind of a leather boy in GREASE He must have played a policeman in one of his 300 straight to video films. I'm not sure about a sailor and I pray to God he never played a Native American.

some kind of military ….navy ? - no film source given Thanks, BATouttaheck I think that picture is from THE GENERAL'S DAUGHTER which was Army. But if he started belting out "In the Navy" right now I could easily be convinced otherwise.

Sylvester Stallone's closing in on the complete sextet :
'F.I.S.T.' (1978) - Loading dock worker and strike operative who used to work in construction industry.
'First Blood' (1982) - Biker and ex-soldier who can't leave the combat zone 'Rhinestone' (1984) - Becomes a cowboy ... should be a cowboy again for upcoming 'Rambo 5'. 'Cobra' (1986) - Biker cop (plays cops in other movies like 'Tango & Cash', Demolition Man', 'Cop Land').
Not sure about sailor, though ... {'First Blood' (1972) author David Morell said that in choosing the name Rambo he was inspired by "the sound of force" in the name of Rambo apples, which he encountered in Pennsylvania. These apples, in turn, were named for Peter Gunnarsson Rambo who sailed from Sweden to America (SE Pennsylvania/Southern NJ/Northern Delaware) in the 1640s, and soon the name would flourish in New Sweden. The name Rambo was likely derived from a shortened form of Ramberget (a hill on the Hisingen island in Gothenburg, where Peter Gunnarsson was born) plus "bo" (meaning "resident of"). Today, many of his descendants can still be found in this region of the US. Morrell felt that its pronunciation was similar to the surname of Arthur Rimbaud, the title of whose most famous work A Season in Hell, seemed to him "an apt metaphor for the prisoner-of-war experiences that I imagined Rambo suffering".[5] Furthermore, an Arthur J. Rambo was an actual U.S. soldier in Vietnam, but he never returned. His name can be seen on the Vietnam War Memorial wall in Washington, DC. He was granted the first name "John" as a reference to the song "When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again".}
He was courted for the Bollywood 'Rambo', but couldn't make it, though he gave the production a big thumbs up and wished them luck.

Charles Bronson comes within a whisker but he's still trying to beat down that door :
'You're In The Navy Now' (1951) - Sailor. 'The Magnificent Seven' (1960) - Cowboy.
'Chato's Land' (1972) - Indian who battles bigotry.
'Love And Bullets' (1979) - Cop. 'Assassination' (1987) - Bodyguard who's an expert motorcycle rider.
He plays a tunneler in 'The Great Escape' (1963), doing the bulk of construction work to build a safe getaway route underground, but does he portray a construction worker in one of his movies?
