ALWAYS REMEMBER MSG'S, STP AND STF= STATE DEPARTMENT PUKE AND STATE DEPARTMENT FUCK.

what you have is a violation of rights, condoned by other pigs, they are so brave

Are you guys still around? Haven't seen a new video in years

I was at 2nd Recon Bn. when you were there, You were in Charlie company... You forgot Sergeant Burns also went to DI school at that time. Wow... Small world indeed. Lieutenant Colonel Kaiser and Major Cook were the CO and the XO at that time.

Med Floats were essentially why I joined--that and to escape Catawba County (which has gotten worse so should be called "Meth County"). I didn't join to work, I joined for the fun--Med Floats were the highest form of entertainment when I was in--I wanted to see the world and essentially did--Spain and Israel were the best countries of the bunch; I won't cover one drunk after another--the running through town back to ship a few minutes before curfew--miss a curfew and you don't go out for awhile if you go out again. Our behavior over there could have used some work; there are things I am not proud of at all--like throwing francs to street urchins--we'd be outside a bar (Toulon, probably) there'd a be a crowd of kids--we'd throw a franc in the middle of them, then watch them tear each other apart over it--we'd be drinking beers like kings. Anything we did you probably also did; I was so green to the scene I met this woman in a bar, went home with her--she let out massive farts all night in her sleep, it was like sleeping with your Dad--took a bath with her--had to haul ass back to ship though, got used to going to her apartment whenever I wanted. I was telling some squid on the USS Iwo Jima (LPH-2) about it--I didn't even know the guy, he was working, which was something Marines never did on ship--wouldn't you know it, he knew her, too--a lot of people did, actually.

One incident of several was our first day of First Phase--they were, of course, out to run us out of there as fast as possible however they could do it and no matter how many weren't up to the task--cleaning-house right away was step one. But I think some recruiters baited people out of a mental hospital with some candy, then, after dropping them off at the bus station, paid Greyhound to get them the rest of the way to P.I.; one dude was banging his head against a wall the first ten minutes of first phase--he looked like Ozzy Osborne if Ozzy had never made it out of the factory. He really had no business making it as far as South Carolina--it was inhumane to have expected anything out of him.

We used to have a guy in C 1/8 who was the most annoying person probably in the company; he'd always walk-up to you and say "Heard from a buddy in Headquarters. We got a hump coming-up. Next Tuesday. Thirteen miles!" He was notorious for that--in his mind, this would make him appear not a deadbeat with no friends but someone you should get to know so you'd be informed at all times. One time he walked-up to a squad-leader's meeting "I got a frie--" "WHAT IS IT THIS TIME!!! WHATEVER IT IS NO ONE CARES!!!"

I was lucky enough to have encountered a bangalore torpedo (that Sgt. Major Acosta might actually remember); there is a range in Israel I don't remember the name of they took us to from Haifa in a bus--but it's Israel. Israel and "safety" don't go together. We were allowed a lot of leeway at this range that we would have never seen in the States because we never did (it had "houses" at the end, too, for house-to-house--you could spray the room because it had rubber mats on the walls--even if your M16 jammed, the mats would wait). The start of it all was a trench, about waist-high, but before we got to the trench, they set off a real bangalore--what those things put out when they go off cannot be described--but it's like it lifts you off the ground about an inch, that's what it's like--it's like you pissed-off Godzilla. I would imagine engineers did the bangalore--I would never give an "03" one in a million years--after that thing blew, we assaulted barbed wire and other moto-shit. Our adrenalin was through the roof--we'd never done anything like that before nor did I do anything else like it afterwards. Our H 2/8 C.O. at the time (whose name I've never remembered) was the best one I ever had; he was walking the berm in the event things went wrong because it would have been on him. They even had M-60's up on a hilltop somewhere going off to keep imaginary heads down ahead of us and someone at the head of the line with a white flag of some sort so some machine gunner wouldn't accidentally get us a new C.O. with too many clicks.

I wonder if Sgt. Major Acosta wants his "Guitar Player" magazines from the '80's back.

Great interview gents a lot of good information. SEMPER FI

Great show Sal!

The Marine Corps should form their own version of the 160th SOAR. Air assets dedicated exclusively to Recon and Force Recon.

Task Unit Raider

We went through Hurricane Gloria in the North Atlantic in 1985, talk about crazy, BB-61 MarDet. Lots of damage.

I thought a Golden Shellback was one who crossed both the Equator and the International Date Line. There is also a ceremony for crossing the Arctic Circle.

Great discussion, your banter really brings me back to my younger more adventurous times as a Marine 0311. Keep it up and thank you for transporting me back for a short time.

Echo 2/2 1987-1988. We had STA Platoon which was organic and totally controlled by our Bn CO. Great bunch of guys. Also, DRP was basically the Force Recon Element for 3rd MarDiv out on Okinawa if I remember correctly. When did they create 5th Force Recon out there. Let me know if my memory is right.

really good dude, ran into him at MSB I think he's out of the marines now.

General Christmas my commanding officer Viet Nam. Wounded Hue City, awarded Navy Cross. Great leader, small world Semper fi

General Christmas was my commanding officer in Viet Nam in H. Co 2nd bat. 5th Marines. Wounded Hue City and was awarded Navy Cross. Small world, semper fi.

I wish I had seen this video before filling out those PCS papers. I wish I could re-do them. ugh.

Are there any Marines (preferably Recon, Scout Snipers, or Raiders) that you know that did an interservice transfer and became SEALs or S.F.? That would be a good show!

FInally another great episode!

I never even thought about Cell phones in the Corps. Shitty to hear that they have invaded life there as well.

🇺🇲💪💯

20:73 in 2004, the flight/maintenance for the CH-53E was 45 man hours to one flight hour, and it always involved Airframes.

Such a great time talking with these fine gentlemen. Thank you so much for having me on the show.

Great show Gents, but how bout that link to that letter? SF!

I'm binge-watching your stuff. These vids have got to be the best at showing the USMC insiders' view, warts and all. Love y'all, in a brotherly manner, mind you. Semper Fi.

MARSOC got their MOS. Well done. (just finished watching Det 1 episode, can you tell?) But! The USMC is killing off the best MOS ever! 0351. Now, what's the company commander gonna do when he needs something blowed up real good right now? So, subjects that might be worth covering. Donno if you'll agree, being as how you're officers and all. And we all know them ain't right in the head, sometimes (mostly). 1. The real power in the Corps. The L/Cpl Mafia. 2. US Army's weird rank inflation. Can't run an infantry squad unless an SNCO? And only 9 men in that squad at that. Hell, the Corps has lots of squads run by the E3 Mafia. Good ones too. 3. The only true long-standing tradition the US military has. Planning and fighting the next war as if it were the last war. I wonder how many wipeouts its gonna take before the numpties up in the head shed to figure out that stacking a squad on a door just isn't a good idea when going up against a professional military force that actually understands overlapping and converging fields of fire for defensive positions? 4. CAAT. There are potential enemies out there that are tank-heavy. Can only carry so many missiles. And those tank heavy forces also tend to invest rather heavily in air support. might not be able to just whiz in with some helos and TOW 'em. So, should we be training in close assault anti-armor? We used to back in the day (the early 80s) but it was mostly imagined and make-believe and sitting around talking about it during breaks in the barracks spade games. 5. They took away our tanks. 6. Anyone else get the feelz that, maybe, some of our military shot-callers are getting side pay from our next enemies? This all kind of reminds me of when the CMC numpty passed down orders that everyone wore rank insignia on cover and lapels, garrison and field and officers wore it shiny for both. Seems someone somewhere didn't salute or some such so No! More! Excuses! 7. Is Quantico too close, geographically, to DC? Heck, HQ USMC is in DC. Maybe that's why the head shed seems to be infested with mind worms. Semper Fi. 79 - 85. O351 Loyalist. L/CPL for life!

I did 2 westpac’s 82-83 as a field radio operator with HQ Co. 31st MAU. aboard the Belleau Wood and the New Orleans which sadly now sit at the bottom of the Pacific after being decommissioned and sunk during naval exercises. Those 2 floats were the best times I had the whole time I was in the Marines. You guys brought back lots of memories. The big difference I see from the video clips is back when I was in ,there as no women allowed on ship when it was under way. With that I use to brake a squid friend’s balls that was also a submariner that when they went out with 100 men, 50 couples came back 6 months later. Semper fi

Listening to some of the marine specific stuff like “so glad I had an asvab over ‘breathing’” 😅 good convo yall

Outstanding podcast devil dogs. S/F

Are you guys in spotify or bean podcast?

Are you guys in spotify or bean podcast?

Another good show guys

Sal, was your Officer MOS 0207 Air Intelligence Officer? Would love to hear a video on the 0207 MOS

Does anyone know MOS training time length for 0231? I heard 3 months?

I had recently found out chesty did have a tattoo. He had the EGA tattooed on his shoulder. His son wrote a book and talked about admiring it one mourning his mom sent him to wake him up. It's a great read but really sad.

Good explanation regarding Recon....if any true ‘11 can sit through the whole video. Especially if you got Sparrow Hawk, only time we got two hots n a cot for a few days. 13 months, Sparrow Hawk twice and never got past two days -- Recon needed a little help from an under strength, physically n mentally exhausted rifle company. First, I respect any and all who serve regardless of Branch, MOS, Unit. Minor correction, we had Scouts -- part of the battalion -- since mid 60’s. If they were organic before, I don't know but we had Scouts attached fm Bn in Nam. The Scout/Sniper and when they became ‘Official’... I don't know but Scouts...we had them. Sorry, I couldn't sit and watch for the whole video. Got issues....especially Marines calling themselves Operators. Make up your minds. Small unit raids with overwhelming force, little different philosophy than Light Infantry Assault and schooled that we had a 90% chance of being a casualty. Trying to explain but can't put the big words together like you guys. Thanks for your time and for sharing.

I always wondered why they jus didnt make a pipeline for marines to join the seal teams since the marine corp is a department of the navy anyways and that way they could use recon to find targets and the seal team hit the targrts

army brigade to Marine Battalion secret to secrets marsoc were soft raiders got ended

Thanks for the ANGLICO shoutout. The best breakdown on the Recon community I’ve seen on UA-cam! Semper Fi gents.

It not for the everybody,Semper fi,A co.2d Recon bn.

If you don’t know these guys your not a Marine I been everything in Arm Forces so I don’t expect for them to remember me with meeting millions I won’t lie I’m recon not what described reconnaissance is a different story force recon isn’t special ops special forces reacon maybe Marsoc has technology raiders joint navy seals

2' funny , back during the Korean police action , it was uncle scammy moldy crocht , during the conflict in south east asian , it was uncle scammy's misguided children , during the 70's and 80's it was uncle scammy's mad children , now a new 1' to me uncle sugars magical circle
