I was in the Marines for 4 years. What this guys says is true.

there's only 1 theif in the corp and everyone else is just trying to get there shit back

I once watched a young marine in a local country bar get his nose broke with his own dress shoe. He was in his blues acting hard all night. Felt bad for him but he probably learned something important.

I just graduated Bootcamp three days ago, and I am so glad I watched this video before enlisting

First thing I was gonna do was buy a used mustang lol 😅

I hope this advice helps! If we can save even one boot ass private from marrying a 400 pound monster and squeezing her into his $25,000 mustang, we've done our job! Don't forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE ya'll!!! More INFORMATIONAL MILITARY VIDS: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fJeTrJSq27bQpJs.html

In the barracks anything you want to keep you better lock up and secure. Each barracks room is a super highway for everyone in the Battalion. The only privacy you will get is on the weekends, when everybody is gone. Also don't get Marine Moto tattoos until you have a few years in or the salty Marines will tear you a new one everytime they see it.

As a marine I served from 2002-2006. I did make some of these mistakes, and learned. When I became an NCO I finally learned. My marines would blow their entire paycheck on cars, jewelry, fashion, and countless other stupid shit. But we live and learn. Listen to this devildog, and take the advice...

Maybe those 24 dislikes were by marines that did what you said not to

If I become a Marine I feel like the only thing i'd buy is a new phone. I dont like blowing my money on pointless stuff

On the note of "don't get too cocky", I'm currently in the DEP (ship out march 20th) and one of my high school friends who graduated a year after me recently got home from boot camp ( I didn't decide to join until after a year of college). So he came to PT with us and we were doing ground wrestling and he and our recruiter were showing us some MCMAP moves and stuff and he immediately volunteers me to fight him cuz he thought he could beat my ass. He ended up on the ground in a choke hold after lunging at me all crazy like lmao. He's still a cocky SOB though.

Dude I was gonna buy a GT500 when I got out of boot camp. That was my goal lmfao. Nevermind lol.

Mustangs are part of their cif gear

I can't agree with #3!!! C'mon, of course every marine is cocky! They just survived the crucible, ANYONE would feel like an total juggernaut after that! haha!

I learned about the cockiness the hard way... I was called a ‘sellout’ by the criminal element in Philadelphia when I went into Boot Camp. I came home to find a house full of thugs ready for a fight. After my beat-down, I used strategy. They were determined to get me killed or incarcerated. The next encounter, I called the authorities and got the watch commander...a former Marine. The thugs tried to set me up, but the officers countered with a plant (they had ran an early sting operation to catch them.) This was 30 years ago...but the wise advice you give rings true, Clayton.

thanks for the tips for the USMC now I know what not to do In 2 years

In barracks you have locks on your storage, theft isn't a big deal

Loving this new upload schedule bro! Keep it up :)

I'm hoping to get to the Marine boot camp in SC. I've made the plan to get an air fryer as soon as I get through boot camp.

thank you for your service, I genuinely appreciate it!

That boot high wore off quick for me and I felt he next big thing was for me to PT myself twice a day. Gave up soda and energy drink. Start saving etc. Not gonna like the schoolhouse gets boring and depressing as fuck. But recognize it and build from it. Solid advice from you sir !

Lol I was very happy confused as to what moto shirts were but then I realized that he pronounces it differently

one of my uncles was in the Marine Corps for a year, after he went through Boot camp MCRD SanDiego California. he went to one of the porn stores in town and he bought four blow up girls and he put them in his footlocker. well to make a long story short his Gunny found out about his strange things and they sent him to the Navy Hospital Mental health ward, where the Doctor there labled him a Social path and unfit to be a Marine so they gave him a Medical condition discharge. now he is 100 per cent disabled from the VA and he gets over 3,000 a month from them. they also found in his footlocker all his bras and panties he was wearing under his Uniform.

About to leave for boot camp next month. Been really thinking about those exact things as well. Thanks for the reassurance

Thanks for the advice, I'm 14 now and planning to join the marines. Though I might not be able to join because of a health problem I've had since birth and can't fix at the moment, but there's hope that I may be able to get it fixed with some surgery.

this video was helpful, i dont get cocky. i was raised differently and it got me to a place where I'm more mature than most people.

Clayton filpo thanks for the tips. I sure am subscribing because I'm trying to be a marine my self

I graduated from Parris Island in May of 1982. These are very good suggestions.

Outstanding advice Devil, I feel the need to add that these mistakes all come after the initial mistakes. For example, getting motivated by the commercials, going to the recruiter, believing the recruiter, signing up as an 0311 because it looks so fucking cool in the brochure, wasting your last days of freedom by going to poolee functions, getting on the plane, getting on the bus, asking your senior DI about your "signing bonus", asking your senior DI anything... Semper Fi

thank you for the advice sir hopefully I will be a marine soon

New T-shirt quote idea "Enjoy the succ a little bit" lol I'm just messing around, great channel, great content, thank you for your service

thank you

The first car I bought as a PFC was a 1978 Camaro Z28! However I saved all my money before I went into bootcamp.

This vid came out the day I went to boot camp lol

Now that he brought up that he sounds like Jonah Hill i cant stop noticing it now

Yo good video Clayton!

You're talking about today's new boot Marines. We went out and bought Boon's Farm wine. 😁👍 Semper Fi Marines, 🇺🇸 Tumbleweed & Popi🐈

thats some good advice

What? The Marines get 10 days leave after boot? In the Navy I got one day then I started A School right after that. Oh well, your boot camp was definitely worse than mine. XD

The only thing I will do after boot camp will be eat a lot all I can but obviously not in a restaurant I prefer my moms, or grandmother even my mother in law food before that XD

Hey Clayton! I know this isn't related to the video, but I plan on joining the Marine Corps because I can't see myself becoming anything else, and it's always been a dream of mine to join the military, specifically the Marines. That being said, I know getting your preferred MOS is difficult, but you still get to give your preferences and pick the field. What would you recommend for someone that enjoys politics and economics? By the way, I love the videos man, keep up the good work!

Wish there was a navy version of you

I want to enlist in the Marine Corps after high school, and i have so much drive to be a Grunt. But I'm just a little shaken by the hazing...

Good video from a Marine.I will hit like bottom!

Gr8 vid!

Great advices not only for marines but for those of you starting a new jobs. Don't go all out spending that hard earned money. Wait until you have passed your probatory period.

Damn man so true. I know you only mentioned MCT but SOI is the same way once they decide to give you a 48 hour limbo.

I dead wanted a mustang 😂

Thanks for tips man can't wait to Graduate in 2 more years.

they say "OORAH" to fucking much

Lol so ive been planning to just by essentials and if my friends buy a car or something I could just catch a ride with them every now and then

Rule # 1 Buy a cheap Motorcycle and respect it. Rule # 2 Stay away from women your first tour. I didn't say Don't Bang them just don't have a relationship. Rule # 3 stay out of Town unless you have to pick up your cammies from the cleaners. Rule # 4 and probably should be rule 1, Stay in shape, go to the Gym twice a day, swim....ALLOT, trust me it will help you to stay out of trouble with women and booze. Rule # 5 stay away from the SHITBIRDS don't make friends with them and most importantly *don't be one*

I definitely made one of these mistakes, but don’t regret it still doing Amazing haha

I do agree completely. But I do have a question. I am going to join the National Guard and after my basic and everything I need to, uses that money for down payment to buying a home. Is that a good idea or don't go for that?

this is awesome lol

My childhood friend Randy ordered a mustang just before he re-enlisted (Army) and was shipped to Iraq. Sadly he was killed a few weeks after arriving in Iraq and never even saw the mustang. Another friend I met in boot camp (Navy) ended up stationed in Norfolk not on the same ship as me but I ran into him and we went to the mall on occasion splitting the cab fare, he would go into the music store every time and buy like 500 dollars worth of CDs.

Lmfaooooo I love this video

And that's why I went into the marines at the age of 22, I got all my shit from working my ass off. Now i dont need to buy anything else.

Also, untuck your t-shirt from your jeans/jorts when you're out in town 🤣

My drill instructors reminded us we know enough MCMAP to get our ass kicked.

I bought a bootstang. To be fair I didn't take out a loan. I got it for $3,000 from my motor t mechanic friend and it runs perfectly fine.

Question.. is it possible to just use iron sights when qualifying on the range at boot camp?

Clayton or anyone else. Does the PX still offer military members a line of credit? When I served in the 1990s it was called DPP. You mentioned about some Marines not having to budget before. Some new Marines got into trouble with DPP when I was in. Yes I applied for and was approved (who wasn't?) for DPP at Camp Pendleton during MCT. I didn't go overboard with it. It was nice to have when needed ☺

3 of this things i was thinking of doing haha.

I plan on picking up a nitrous Kit after boot lmao

What if you want to do the reserves?

Yes

LOL AT THE MOTO GEAR 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Lol, awesome

Clayton so the job you had in the marine corps how did you get it and also how hard is the selection? I'm interested in reasearch and a possible job move after my four years of security forces

do you recommend navy federal or a different bank?

How long do you have to live in the barracks cuz i want to be an embassy marine gaurd

Hey clayton im about to turn 17 and i have not completed high school and the marine corps website says that you have to have a high school diploma or about to graduate i was wondering if you could clarify

I didn't fall into these 34 years ago but lots did.

I dunno, I miss my MCT tee shirt. Wish i had it still. But I will say I did break 2 of these rules :X

"within two weeks of meeting her" hahahahha

About blowing money do think it's a good idea just getting essential parts of living(food, toiletries, stuff along those lines)?

Lol I have a friend that did every single one of these things and he’s at MOS school 😂

I got deployed right after boot.... oh well someone’s gotta lead the way.

Hey Clayton I tore my ACL in December of last year and I had an allotgrats(cadavers) ACL put into me and I was wondering after college would I be able to join ? I know there's a lot of medical things that go into effect whether or not you can join I hit up my recruiter but he hasent responded in a couple days thanks!

Hi my name is Maria and I wanna enlist in the Marines and I'm not so sure what job to pick I love doing a lot of things and not so sure what to choose is there any way to find out what each job does?

Most likely I'm gonna spend it on online language classes and the stock market .

What about ega hats?

What are your expenses as a brand new single marine?

Guys im planning on enlisting after college i just wanted to ask whats the longest some one one can stay in the marines?

What's Moto gear and why is it bad to wear it? (I'm from the UK)

*gets in a fight* Private’s: I’m sorry staff sergeant I didn’t know I couldn’t do that

What do you recommend spending money on after boot camp? Buying new uniform gear, head gear etc. I heard standard issue uniform and gear isn't the best for recruits besides for. the guide

I wore my service bravos to stop and shop 😖

Hey Clayton if I have 2 last names on my birth certificate but only 1 on my SSN card which last name will go on the uniform? Btw can you do a video on the process of earning your mcmap belts :)

I've done 2 sins. Motogear I never wear and electronics

I like how you drop down off the camera after every video.

Everything this guys saying is true. New boots are the worst, they go to the club in their moto gear thinking all the women are gonna swoon over them, doesn't happen.

Im not one to wear a lot of moto, but when i graduate BC you know im wearing the spartan tee shirt.

Getting married, buying a v6 at 17% rate, getting a boot ass tattoo,wearing 9line clothing,crying hazing

So what if I buy a 02-04 Mustang GT. Wouldn't break the bank and would finish paying it off in a few months. Or should I wait till I just have the cash to buy it? Usually got from 4-5k depending on condition and miles.

The getting too cocky out of Boot Camp is real shit. I was older when I enlisted ( I was 30 but a fucking PT stud) I was more mature and more secure with who I was, understood myself, I had already been humbled a few times in my life and knew to stay confident and humble, but not cocky. Most of those kids did not and I know of three who got the shit beat out of them on their 10 day leave smfh.

whats the height qualification for female marine?

Barracks life isn't bad at all. It's like living at a motel, or hotel. I got a fridge and a microwave. Not bad at all. And they aren't Mustangs, they're bootstangs.
