SHEESH!!!! Sent chills throughout my body!!!!🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️

Now this is an officer being brutally honest

So whites in The Corps finally knew what hard work and being treated like shit felt like!!

Because whites dont work hard or struggle? Racist much?

Holy shit...finally, a GOOD take on that!

God bless the united States marines .those are some mighty big words coming from a country that's under the rules of a satanic cult!!

PARRIS ISLAND, JUNE 26,1981. WILL NEVER, EVER FORGET. SEMPER FI!!🙏👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Yeah but they didn't win the Vietnam war .

​@@genaro5766 We never lost in the field. The war was given away by spineless politicians at home who had milked all they could from it.

Makes two of us.... As a matter of fact, I couldn't remember a time my DI's even spoke to me normally other than marine week

+patrick wyatt mine didnt even in Marine week...lol

+The_ 0311 Probably because of the cameras.

He had to act human in front of the cameras. Lol!

They toned it down because of the cameras. It also depends who is your drill instructor.

Lmao

If the Marines were for everyone they wouldn’t be the Marines.

Well unless your Einstein

Then u found out about that bi-annual air force fitness test and cried lol

@@andrewgrubb8242 only had to take it twice a year if I got below a 90%, plus it was a pretty easy PT test when compared to the Marines’ or Army’s.

in there somewhere

52 years now, in 2023. Time flies! ⌛️

It was probably "unsat" before it was posted.

Likely shot on film, which if kept stored well will look quite good even today

@@CrestedSaguaro52053 my brother

Same here buddy

Are the dreams about your dad wet? If so, gross, man.

It's even more fun if you imagine "Staff Sergeant Sanford, Fred" as the Receiving D.I.

It, truly, was an HONOR and a PRIVILEGE to have served!

Freddy Pumper my drill instructors in 09 were skinny AF. They never ate or hydrated in front of us and were constantly sweating and constantly running around all day. They were basically bad ass.

Semper Drew1776 I'm curious do any of these DI's ever get horse throated in need of a drink or is it like everything else in The Marine corp a trained disciplined skill to bark orders constantly without showing any side effects in front of the recruits from the constant commanding ? - much respect to you my friend and Thank You for my Freedom !

Lisa Moreno all discipline. They can not show any weakness in front of recruits. The marine corps has to assume the look of perfect during that time frame lol.

Semper Drew1776 OK thank you 👍🏻🇺🇸

Semper Drew1776 may I ask because I'm fascinated with the USMC my most favorite branch of the armed forces - what's the life span for a DI of making recruits into MARINES on average how long do they have that job and title for ?

You sound like a boot lace

Very insightful and full of truth. Our real "graduation" day is death.

They did all that when I went through in 1996. Probably to a lesser extent though.

My dad went through in April 68. SDI was Christiansen. Dad said one DI had the habit of hitting recruits in the side of the ribs from behind. He said when you moved he’d be on top of you screaming. Dad died in 2021. He was proud to be a Marine but he sure didn’t brag.

Good.

This is true. They might slam your rifle stock against the side of your head in drill. We sometimes pushed the bolt of our M 14 to the open position with the bridge of our nose in unison when someone screwed up inspection arms. We had one guy who was a fraction of a second behind the rest of the platoon.

I went through Paris Island in August of 2020. We still got hands put on us. They just didn't do it within sight of officers. I got Sparta kicked while running with a footlocker because I was within arms reach of our killhat (lowest drill instructor who's in charge of enforcing discipline).

We respect our brave Corpsmen. None will go without a drink in any VFW I'm in. Welcome home Devil Doc.

❤

Marines have MUCH RESPECT for Navy Corpsmen!

Read: Force Recon 1969 and Force Recon 1970 ..... by Navy Corpsman who served with them in 'Nam ..... and, later, would become a Commissioned Officer in the Marine Corps

I was a Corpsman there in 71, as a new recruit. Got a stripe out of boot. 9 bulls out of 10 from 600 yds with peep sights got the stripe for me. 78 yrs and still a Marine. SEMPER FI to all my brothers, not you heshes.

This comment has me rolling 😂

Maxhaxburger I'm laughing my ass off 😂😂😂

I'm weak😭💀

Maxhaxburger RIP Earbud users

Maxhaxburger rip ears

Holy shit, is that you in the back no way man, far out.

I was at MCRDSD April 1966. Semper Fi !

When I went through boot camp in 05 they were still putting hands on us. All my drill instructor were infantry who were in the invasion of Iraq they were preparing us for what they had gone through.

It still happens from time to time.

💯

Sti happened in 2011

Sent my ass to MOTIVATION PLATOON 🤡 Graduated May 1971 👍🇺🇸

I know you posted a few years ago, but when I was in (1989 - 1994) we were taught, in boot at P.I. and in the Fleet, 1. God. 2. Corps. 3. Country. Was told or taught that without God and the Corps there would be no country.

I think my dad was there in 72.

Gary Rooney thank you for your service you are a true American hero

I was there in 1972 plt 2032

1973 PLT. 283

Platoon3059​@@terrymcpeak452

If they had Algebra at P.I. I would have never talked to a recruiter.

Haha that's exactly what I thought too!

matt west lmao, son😂😂😂😂😂

When I was in Parris Island the drill instructors literally beat us. We got hit all the time. Punched, kicked, slapped, everything. Ran all day until everyone puked and ran some more until we all puked again then we had to clean up our own puke with our own shower towels. Had all of our gear kicked out of our foot lockers and kicked up and down the squad bay and then we had 30 seconds to find all of our gear and put it back. Never leave your gear unsecured! God help you if they find your rifle unsecured. You would barely come back alive from that. You'll spend hours in the sand pits getting drilled and PT'ed until you literally passed out and you've eaten 5 pounds of sand. God help you if you killed a sand flea that was biting you. They'd make us dig a full sized grave to bury that little sand flea gnat in.... I got shoved over my foot locker into the metal frame of the sleeping rack, punched once which knocked me out for a few minutes, slapped and kicked a few more times. Some of the other recruits got worse treatment than that. One guy got kicked so hard in the ribs when his knees touched the deck while doing push ups that a few of his ribs got broken. Another recruit got smacked across the face so hard it broke his jaw bone. Another recruit got throat chopped so hard it crushed his voice box and he couldn't yell for over a month. We didn't complain, we didn't talk back, we didn't try to get away with stuff, that was simply punishment for mistakes. One person messes up and we all paid for it dearly. Marine Corps bootcamp was the hardest 13 weeks of my life. We had over 120 recruits in my platoon at the start and we graduated with 77. But in the end we was fearless, strong, fit, sharp, tough as hell, and ready to go kill. They made us fight each other, crawl hundreds of yards in mud under barbed wire while pushing two 30 pound ammo cans in front of us and you had to keep your face pushed down into the mud, the gas chamber...... good God the gas chamber.... that was the day we all thought we was going to fucking die.The EGA ceremony after we got back from the crucible was such a relief. There wasn't one recruit with a dry eye when that EGA was put in their hand and got called a Marine for the first time EVER! No matter how old you get in life or what you go through, you will never forget your time in bootcamp.

+Salty Steel I buried 12 gnats.

But when all that was up, I guarded it from 12-4 with an empty rifle, two canteens and a utility belt. You never know when someone's hungry enough to sneak-into Parris Island.

Politically correct for the cameras Marine.

We always want to make our experiences worse than they actually were.

Me too... same date. Platoon 109.

My first squad leader in the FMF was too nice--he was so nice I had no idea how he got there--if we had all told him to stick it he would have probably agreed but he was so chill you never would. He was the polar opposite of squad leaders I would have later. He used to ask me about "The Church Lady." I hadn't heard of that because I didn't live off-base like he did so lacked nice things.

@oscarbravo7929, I went through army boot camp in '74. If you looked up from your tray while you were eating they would throw your ass out of the mess hall. It didn't matter if you had only taken one bite or not a single bite.

I remember in boot camp going through the chow hall and the servers saying 1 bread, 1 butter, 1 salt ,1 pepper, keep the line moving prive

Shit hasn’t changed except the DIs are louder now

NinjaKED12 . Also the DIs are usually bigger and stronger now.

Semper Fidelis

Clandestine Ninja what was your name? I need to look that shit up

Clandestine Ninja prove it

name?

Clandestine Ninja Probably a liar like most of the other idiots on KZfaq

we didn't do any obstacles, we were getting it'd the whole time and then there was a heat casualty and we were done

Those recruits look like the rock band "Mudhoney" when they were popular.

lol

Puffthecarrier1 I thought that too

Man that kid has long hair

So did i. Three of us got there late Friday night and had to go until Monday before we got shaved. I caught Hell that whole weekend, it was a nightmare. LOL

Pick up your fuckin cover!!

Bro fearless

+Michael Foy sr Yes, I started there on 21 June 1971. It was a rough and tough place. Got there at about 0200 and didn't get any sleep for 36 hrs. Didn't get much better until we qualified with the M14. At that point we knew we were Marines.

+Larry Phillips Everyone gets there at 0200; that's part of the plan. Still done the same way to this day.

I joined in 1995 had a MSgt at my MOS school that joined in the late 1970s and was given that same ultimative join the MC or go to prison. He grew up in the cabrini green housing projects in Chicago and was a gang banger. Had been shot twice before ever joining the Marines.

LOL..The recruiter told us how beautiful Paris island was..horse back riding, Pussy etc. Drill Instructors back then..were sadistic...2-assistant DI's and one Senior DI..it seemed like the good cop bad cop scheme..The assistant DI's were relentlessly mean and Hard..But on Sunday The Senior DI was strict but not as sadistic..everyone liked the senior...we started out with 96 originals..But only 26 of us made the scheduled Graduation. with 4 attempts of suicide in our platoon. Long time ago for me..But I could loose my mind before i die, but i will never forget it to the grave Semper Fi Bro...rest easy gunny

@@dive2663225 did you see the film private Benjamin? The army recruiter showed Judy Benjamin condos and county club life.

I read somewhere that one of the D.I.'s in the chow hall part died in Vietnam (or someone claimed somewhere on KZfaq).

As a new Corps Marine, I agree with you.

Well I'm a nineties Marine and we had all the Vietnam-era Jarheads in the upper echelons when I went through, so I got a taste of both worlds... Semper Fi

judging by this video, I can assure you that boot camp has not changed much since the 70s. If anything, the DI's talk even faster and are harder to understand now, lol.

How Old Corps are you? I went through PI in '56 . . . and I was a New Corps boot. I still felt like one when I EAS in 1960, although probably a bit saltier.

yes they did

Thank you for your service.

Thank you Kristy

Semper Fi.

And for people who know nothing about tying knots.

***** Yeah, looks tame compared to when I went through Parris Island in 1990. However, most of these recruits weren't there willingly, these are draftees and full of amphibian shit. Also, any documentary coming out at the time, I wouldn't be surprised if it was purposely tamed because the military as a whole was under fire from the public. I'm sure when the cameras went away, there was a whole different experience waiting for those recruits.

christschool I think you're spot on. My dad joined the British army only a year or so after the end of conscription. That was when training was legendarily tough. They were told "you actually WANT to be here..." and they admitted it was much tougher than when people were forced to go...

christschool good point!

christschool thought Marines where volunteer and not drafted into the Marines

I Don't Know There was a draft during the Vietnam War.

Plt. 283 2nd Battalion

Yes a few were bounced around in the Drill Instructor hut.

I take your word for it. I feel that the Marine Corps changed me for better and worse as well. I think it does it to a lot of marines.

The video brought back memories, I was at Parris island May until July 1971, platoon 344, it was a lot tougher than the video.

Your story is quite normal actually in the Marine Corps numbers. It seems to be just part of the fraternity of the Devil Dogs. We have needed such men in combat overseas. World War I and World War II proved it out, along with the other modern Wars. I am a 6 year veteran also. The services can make people pretty mean. I grew up with it so I know very well. When I left for the military as a teenager, I was already indoctrinated to brutality, anger and a regimented life. My father was a sergeant from the Korean War

Yep! Cowardice and being a worthless crybaby are unfortunately a reality of today. Yea talking to you Antifa!

Clearly you've never been thru in real life

The training has and always will be the same. The marine corps is all about tradition. Not even Congress can change it.

Micah N stuff Yeah. I get pissed when people, sometimes even older veterans, act like it’s not tough now when they don’t know. Like saying that recruits don’t get hit anymore. BS. Just because it’s against the rules doesn’t mean that it doesn’t happen.

@@Adam-bq2vw These older veterans are getting a little too slow unfortunately. It's hilarious to see their claims about stress cards because when I went to PI, no drill instructors gave out stress cards or whatever. We still got hit too, which they like to say doesn't exist 😆

Didn't we serve together at Parris Island. Capt Ron Tucker, Adj, 1stRtbn 1979-1981; Adj, RTR 1981-1982; Adj. HQSvcBn 1984-1985; Director, PPAC 1985-1988 Semper Fi.

Ron-we sure did! Great to hear from you, my friend. You were one of the best! Semper Fi

I remember them and they were made of sand and we dug in them every day,

They didn't have slow motion anymore around then, either--if they had, I would have done much better at pugil sticks.

I guess any marine would love it going in just a few weeks when the Vietnam war was ending. The carnage was no fun

72 to 81

Clifton Williams What did the drill instructors do?Did they get in trouble?

This last statement is total bullshit

They still use cattle cars, actually, or used to when I was there; they're humiliating and stupid when you're on your way to the field but when you're headed back from the field it beats humping with pride.

It would be cool if they also yelled at you in the P.I. gift shop "Sir, Private doesn't know the tax on this coffee mug, lighter and Twinkie, Sir!' 'Oh!!! He doesn't know--he doesn't knnnooowww!!!'"

I’ve never witnessed that! Where did you even hear that?

@@ginacarrano50yearsago15 i was in front 85 to 89 and then again in 2002 to 2012. I witnessed it the second time that i was in.

@@dannystranahan1004 haven’t witnessed it yet mainly because the PT standards are the same and females can’t keep up with the males.

@@ginacarrano50yearsago15 Actually the PT standards are not the same for men and women in the Marine Corps. A man has to run 3 miles in 18 minutes or less to 20 pull UPS and 100 crunches in 2 minutes for a perfect 300 score. Women do not have to do pull UPS they do what's called a dead hang.

@@dannystranahan1004 I know I was in the corps too I mean females can’t keep up in an infantry unit.
