"Personal pronouns go out the the door!" That's the most promising thing I've heard so far in most modern bootcamp videos.

My Dad finished in 1945, Boot Camp was somewhere in Louisiana. They didn’t carry around water everywhere, either! Of course, maybe they should have? He always told about how often men passed out! He’d bust chops of those who keeled over, until it happened to him! He shipped to the Pacific to prepare for the land invasion of Japan. The Enola Gay and Bockscar got there first, so he went to Guam, then Japan. He rarely spoke of his time in Japan, and later, Korea and later, the Pacific. He told us more about Boot Camp and later, when stationed at Lakehurst. Most of it was classified which was as well because he didn’t want to speak of it. Tomorrow is the one year anniversary of his passing. Miss you, Dad! (edit due to autocorrect changing Enola to Ebola!)

my dad was in the coast guard during ww2. he went through boot camp in Maryland. he was a gunner on a troop transport ship.during ww2 members of the coast guard went automatically into the US NAVY he was on the USS ADMIRAL MAYO. he saw action in the Atlantic ( brought back the 101st airborne on our trip, brought back GI prisoners of the germans on the second trip.. made two trips to Japan ...brought back American prisoners of war that had been held by the Japanese.)he was proud of his service. during the Vietnam war, I wanted to go onto the service, he said he would give me 500$ for every year I served if I went into the coast guard. I joined the Marines. both he and my mom cried like babies, he said if I made it through the first 2 months ,I'd be ok. said that's what my grandfather told him when he left for Europe theatre. he came home with out a scratch.... I did my tour up in the "I corps" , saw a lot of action...never got a scratch . my dad passed 16 years ago. to this day...every Memorial Day I put-up the Coast Guard flag and the Marine Corps flag side by side. I know that my training was a lot harder than what he went through.... but branch to branch ANY ONE who serves our country is just as "tough" no matter which branch they serve(d) in.

I did Army BCT. However my brother did the Coast Guard (we're talking the 1970s). He told me of the time in Bootcamp where a Chief pulled him out of the barracks and started chewing his ass. At one point the Chief asked him where he was from, and my brother replied, "Wyoming." He said the Chief looked surprised and never singled him out again. Go figure.

Multiple reasons. One is hygiene. Young men and women from all over the country living in many different levels of life. Two is maintenance. No time for fussing with hair and three is they are all are equal. That is recruits are considered the lowest thing in the ocean while in boot camp. The women also have a simple shortened hair style. I saw many guys have a hard time at first with discipline but most got the hang of it by the end of basic. Those that didn't washed out or returned through the process.

There seems to be a bunch of commenters here cracking jokes and making fun of Coasties but I would like to know how many of them have even emerged from their parents basements? There are more Marines and army that spent their whole careers, be it four or 20 years just playing war. The Coast Guard actually uses their training for saving lives and property. They are under the department of navy during war time. They where in Vietnam and are currently in the middle east in the gulf. Basic looks a lot different than it did in the early 70's but it isn't day camp as some would lead on to be. The Coast Guard says you have to go out but you don't have to come back but I suppose that is the same in every branch. What gets me is the boots get to wear real fitting cloths! We had a one size fits all green army duds that if you weren't 6' plus you where swallowed up by them. It wouldn't surprise me if they where from WWII and no telling how many men wore them previously. We did have our dress uniform issue but only wore them for inspection and everything else was issued just prior to graduation. If God sent me back for a do over I would join the USCG again. The statement during orientation of leaving your personal pronouns behind gives me a little hope.

Cape May June 72 Victor 18 company . I got caught smoking. Had 10 lit cigarettes in my mouth when the trashcan was put over my head. Many went through PT carrying their sea bags. The Chief found a pubic hair on a urinal during inspection. We were doing push-ups and being screamed at until someone finally “confessed” to the crime. It was kinda funny cause the Chief was so animated, but the punishment sucked.

And although the military wont change its stance I can ask and request please save your yelling and screaming and for those enlisted in boot camp who have broken policies and procedures and those that commit insubordination there is a time and place for everything.
