The first week someone in my platoon said “aye aye captain” and was murdered by the DI’s. His name was forever Recruit Squarepants after that
December took me 5 seconds to realize the reference
@@justaclock4768 same lol
I’m dying laughing at this but I know I shouldn’t cuz I’m going to boot camp in September 🤣😟
uniturtle beep laugh while you can. And don’t address your DI or DS by “aye aye captain”
@@uniturtlebeep3173 All the best and thank you!
I love how when one DI starts tearing into a recruit, three more appear out of thin air and join the feeding frenzy.
On god
Freakin' sharks. 😂
That happened when we got dropped from receiving. When we all got inside the squad bay no one was there. All of a sudden the DI's appeared from nowhere lol
Uuuumm it's called helping out a friend and showing commitment to friendship. There when you need it the most. out of thin air that's the best friend looking to support his bro.
Man... I was trying to find the bathroom during a classroom setting. A different company got done with PT and saw me by myself like an idiot and I got my shit wrecked.
Ok... I'm retired Army
My drill sergeant liked to point out... I'm no longer allowed to hit you. But I can hit my equipment... And you are wearing it... June 1974!
you were in at an interesting time. Vietnam scaling back and military anomalous. I cannot imagine how that went.
I was 18... Everything was a game to me. It was all straight forward. By the time I retired you almost had to vote on what time PT was going to be. Whining was the order of the day. Go figure.
I went in in "73", (Army) the DI's would still give you a gut punch if they knew they could get away with it....
The screaming DI is nothing you will ever forget! Hahahahahahahahaha..
It's crazy...BUT violent indoctrination WORKS to produce violent individuals, and these people have to be ready to kill. War is the business of killing, there's no getting around it.
May 74' Basic at Ft. Polk. A mixed bag of 2 platoons RA, one of NG, one of prior service (mostly Vietnam Vets). We in the RA platoons were some of the first VOLAR (Volunteer Army) after the Draft. DS ignored the prior service, and NG. Their wrath was all focused on us RA Types.
My biggest habit that I retained is walking with a purpose, I hate being stuck behind slow ass people at Walmart, I have an objective and i want it done in a timely manor🤣
Walk with a purpose. One of my classroom rules. Out if your seat? Fine, so long as you walk directly with a purpose, do or get what you need and return quickly to your task. No wandering aimlessly around the room to see who or what you find!
You want the objective completed in a fast country estate? They why would you be in a Walmart?
Absolutely!
Hell I do that now and I’ve never served. I hate being out of my house, I just want to get done with whatever my tasks for the day are and get back home.
Well, if there's one thing I hate, it's definitely that.
I always ask myself if they drive as slow as they walk?
Annoys the hell outta me for sure.
The only job in the world where harassment of employees is encouraged!
True
Lmao, so true
They go to schooling to do that lol
this is how we fix USA
@@Oh-ou4lp snowflakes are too weak and brittle they wouldn't even make it to black Friday
someone in my platoon said yes drill daddy so every single person in there barracks did 50 pushes with every push we had to say whatever number we were on followed by drill daddy, and if someone laughed that was another 5
What a legend
This comment legit made me die of laughter
Lol! Drill Daddy!
Oh my god😂
Efren Flores I.e the whole platoon 😬
I had my senior drill instructor come up behind me years after boot camp.. I was at the armory at TBS quantico cleaning weapons.. he saw me and screamed my name and I instantly locked my body up.. come to find he was stationed there too .. he laughed like crazy 😂
Fuck TBS for real tho lol
I fucken hate Tbs I’m here now
@@cz8087 F
That happened to me when I hit the fleet at Camp Lejeune. My DI had just completed his billet as a DI in San Diego and ended up at Lejeune. He said my name in a sharp tone while I was at the PX and I swear I almost snapped to POA😂😂
@TheBrabon1 lmao pretty much
I’m an Army vet and at boot camp there was this one recruit who couldn’t stop smiling when we just got off the bus. One drill sergeant set him aside and when he came back he wasn’t smiling anymore and took boot camp very seriously after that. I don’t think I saw him smile until after graduation. I don’t know what the drill sergeant said to him but he put the fear of God on that soldier.
I once watched a documentary...they asked the recruits what they think about their drill instructor. They said we hate him. Afterwards they asked the instructor what he believes what the recruits think of him. He answered with a smile "They hate me".
I just had to laugh.
They may hate him, but that's his job. I am sure recruits would hate their DI more if they were NOT properly trained and found themselves in a bad situation.
@@BlaacHollow
Yes. Be prepared..reality is tougher than any DI.
@@humanbeing1675 What documentary? I want to see it pls
Gordon XYZ you hate them at the time but then after you graduate and you’re away from them for a bit you start to miss them. It’s weird
@@absoluteking95
Sorry. Couple of years ago.. don't know the title 🙁
Your parents had 18 years to prepare you for adulthood. It’s amazing what 12 weeks can do.
Drill instructors square you away more in 13 weeks than parents do in 18 years. I saw so many trash recruits in my time in recruit training , i was amazed and saddened I would be serving with some of those guys
@@Khonic23 gotta earn the respect just like in any filled of employment
Thats cause politics, “ohh dont be mean to kids, dont bully”
-military - “k everyone out....... YOU MAGGITS ARE MINE MUAHAHAHAHAAHAHHHAA WELCOME TO HELL!
@@room23productions12 it's your duty to make it excellent
Does having a navy mother count? Lol
We had a recruit from Somalia back when I went through in 85. He would pretend sometimes to not "understand" the DI's. He would look over at me and wink. I had keep myself from cracking up.
Was it General Farrah Aidid's son?
AlexSDU nah he got caught remember?
One does not need to be from Somalia to not understand what they're saying. They're likely not even using words, but screaming like stuck pigs.
Did he tell the DI: _"Eh! Look at me......LOOK at me! I'm the Drill Instructor now!"_ ?
Something that is overlooked/ underrated is the fact that when recruits consistently do well, the drill instructors (at least while I was in service) acknowledged it and encouraged...difficult to earn but well worth it. Semper Fi
The BEST feeling
I went to Parris Island in 1984, and I still think that it was well worth it.
Recruits were caught laughing among themselves, drill instructors immediately corrected the problem
UCMJ don't, rule out-- laughter dumbasses! DIs-- violate by, do not teach-- applicable trainer laws.
You aren't allowed, even be there, under ignorance of applicable laws.
unless you had a new drill instructor and made him laugh!!! Omg, we paid for that!!!
Bruce Secrest lmao you guys made a drill instructor laugh and then he punished you guys for it?
never seen a human move so fast in my entire life.
Don't laugh, until the DI instructs you to laugh.
Training day 1. DI slapped the unbounded pages of my green monster “training manual” out of my hands and 330 pages flew around the bay like feathers in the wind. And to make it worse the pages were NOT numbered. I spent the next 8 weeks trying to put it back together. It was a nightmare. I saw the look on the DIs face when it happened. He actually looked apologetic for a millisecond.
rockintothedawn 🤣
Crap
Damnnnnnnnnn
the funny thing is though during the written test towards the end they literally point to the correct answers .
omg bro to funny but not funny im sorry thats cracked me up
The very first drill instructor who is screaming was one of my drill instructors. I got chills when I heard his scream.
I’m assuming not The Gunny but the DI with his arms crossed screaming at the recruit on the phone?
Rick Tatorship god I wish it was the gunny
TRG I had the honor to meet him person!
He seems nice
🤣😂.
When my SDI found out my dad was a Major in the corps as well. Smoked. All day. Everyday.
Scumbag
What do you mean?
@reformed09 pay no mind. He’s trolling.
What does that mean? Sorry
@@eminenception SDI is Senior Drill Instructor. He’s your god in boot camp essentially...
"Ok, what's your rifle serial number?"
"I can't read it-"
"IIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"
I mean this recruit!!!! Haha
🤣🤣🤣🤣
4:54 XDDDDDDDDDDDDDdd
I actually died 😹😭😭
That was badass lmao
I got smoked for not sneezing loud enough in line for haircuts
Wait really
they are just looking for any excuse.
Yes, they do. They will make shit up and they will find something about everyone to pick on them. They want to see how you handle the stress, because if you can’t handle this in garrison, then you can’t handle it in combat. And if you react, they will push you harder to try and break you. I had a 4 inch long Irish pennant planted on the brim of my cover during inspection. Instructor said it was so long he could repel off it. They thrashed me and made me write a 300 word essay during the night on proper uniform standards. Don’t react, use the proper terminology and follow their simple instructions word for word.
This made me laugh the hardest
@@jeffreyheil9542 yes thats true
Combat is awful and even experienced ones always get mental scars
Won't be able to win a fight or protect your fellow partners too
RESPECT TO ALL OF YOU!!
My Father was Master Chief Petty Officer in the Navy and served in WW2.
Sincerly, Thank you ALL!
Things to know to help you new recruits:
- Learn to say "This Recruit" ASAP. Dont say "I" under any circumstance.
-Keep your stuff locked at all times.
-Never look at a DI unless specifically told to.
-Work as a team, i cannot stress this enough. If you do not work together and you're constantly fighting, then you wont make it far.
-Have thick skin, dont take what they say personally, and try not to get offended by what they say.
-Do as your told, when your told, and how your told to do it.
-DONT TOUCH YOUR FACE under any circumstance.
-Study any knowledge given to you, teach it to recruits who struggle.
-Apply bug juice before PT
Theres plenty more but these are the first things that come to mind.
Exactly. Sir this recruits request permission to speak sir. Etc. etc.
@@JamesonsTravels when i was in they lost their minds when you said "I"
@@atay5466 Or" you"....that really lit them up...
What is bug juice and what does it mean to apply it?
Why shouldnt you touch your face?
Outstanding
Caught smiling to the CO. Broke the record for most fire watch in my cycle.
Knightart1977 I got 2 hours all cycle
Well done
DI: All I am surrounded by is fear...and dead men.
🤣
Scribe liked me. Had fire watch twice and it was at 2200 to 2300 so I got to get sleep and didn’t get fucked with
2nd phase on firewatch I was approached by my kill hat. After spouting off the report he asked me if all the recruits were in the shelters. I replied this recruit believes so sir. He replied what did R Kelly believe? I replied He could fly sir. Then he proceeded to IT me in the dark while he had me singing I believe I can fly... He wasn't impressed with how much of the song I knew so later as we returned from range week he brought me the printed out lyrics. I learned that whole song and sang it as I got destroyed the rest of boot camp. Still have the paper he gave me almost 15 years later.
Truly amazing the imagination on some DI's. I'm sure it sucked, but man you gave me a great laugh lol.
Now that’s good stuff😂😂
They use incidents like that strategically, to build morale/unit cohesion. Your instructor was good at his job.
Have not heard that song in yrs.
That's awesome haha
I remember being on night watch and the OIC came in and I saluted him with the wrong hand. Bad day
On graduation day our whole company was formed up waiting to go on the parade deck and 2 1st phase recruits were walking back from the PX and one of those recruits saluted our company commander with the wrong hand and that recruit got lit up by all the DI’s in the company at once. One of the greats things I’ve ever seen, one recruit in an ocean of drill instructors
Story from my brothers bootcamp days: drillsergeant was checking the seedling tiles for hidden things and a friggin c*msock falls out and hits him square in his face... He was PISSED and the other DS almost dubbled down laughing, best part... The recruit it belonged to got called "recruit jerkoff" the rest of the camp... Dudes still call him that to wind him up sometimes
Who jerks off on socks anyways?
@@nelsonsanchez9055 Recruit jerkoff does
I saw this story on reddit once
@@JacobShytle could be, that shit happens more often then you might think
@@nelsonsanchez9055 I mean it gotta go some where
My sin was that my grandfather and namesake was the Drill instructor of my DI. The DI was literally waiting for my ass to get there.
That sucks
Great Story! Write it up and send it to Jameson!
Bro ouch how the tables have turned 😂
WoW, your grandfather made an impression on that DI. It's not always good to have a well known name.
Cool story!
I got “Smoked” for accidentally calling one of my Drill Instructors “ Sgt. Bumstead” . His name was Sgt. Bumgardner. He was pissed!
Ha thats a classic
I don't believe it... because how you are still alive and typing?
@@BradyKaynee Probably because it was a genuine accident and he's probably heard worse?
Wow! My friend is a Vietnam Air Force Veteran with that last name
“Go catch that plane recruit”
“Aye sir”
As you’re thinking to yourself “damnit I knew I shouldn’t have looked up..” lol if you know you know.
Hahaha yep
My DI used to tell us if we were looking at something in formation and would say hey recruit do we wanna go find it and if you said yes sir you were takin to the pits lmao
The day before I had went to Boot Camp I had my last big meal and I had a lots of tacos and hot sauce and refried beans. I was surrounded by about 10 drill sergeant yelling at me having me do push-ups and then I ripped the loudest fart and that was the first time I saw them smile and then immediately start yelling at me again. Also through my time in Boot Camp I often did fart a lot and I remember them telling me to stop farting or they’re going to tape my face on my ass.
😭😭
Liked because I died laughing at that last line
LMFAO tape ur face to ur ass. That's classic 😂🤣
bruh i'm dying here 😭😭😭😭
You were very ass toot.
The DI’s appear to be attracted by the other DI’s shouting, fascinating.
It’s like a shark smelling blood in the water -has a revelation- wait this probably why it’s called a shark attack lol 😆
Huh....neat
This is very true
Matting call
@@bearallen852 AMEN to that brother!!!
My sin was I weighed 115 pounds. All 4 Drill Sgts took it as their divine mission to make me quit. Anytime anyone got in trouble I was called up front with them and dropped. Long story short I was a mean assed person after graduation. I didnt even like myself for a couple of years
michael trent you good king 👑
hope you're into yourself now !

Brother I endured and overcame. Did my 21 years and now got 10 years as a CO. In 7 years I'll have 2 pensions SSI and 80% disability check. Living full time in Philippines at 63 and looking forward to retirement
@@michaeltrent2726 nicer women there.
@@5.5.Below.5 already!!
In basic training I got smoked a lot for telling my drill sergeants "yes sir, no sir" to which they'd fly off the handle telling me they work for a living they ain't officers. Lol I thought that was the funniest thing I had ever heard up to that point
The guy at 7:21 was a brand new DI in my company back in 2015. His signature move was locking eyes with his victim and walking straight through formations and groups just like here in the vid lol. Great dude.
My favorite part 😂
Get
Back
@@BullyBlackEnt me too. Please 3206 in San Diego. Good times
In boot camp, during weapons cleaning time, I really needed to use the head. I smashed the "House's" door, Screamed 'THIS RECRUIT NEEDS TO MAKE A HEAD CALL SIR" and the door opened but I didn't know the Drill master (gunney), Company comander (o3) , cheif DI (gunney) , and all my DI's were in there, so they all looked at me... and my kill hat said "Scream at this paper (on the door) until the tape comes off" and slammed the door shut. I pissed myself.
Were you too stupid to just take the initiative and go to the head yourself?
usernamunavailiable well if you had my DI’s, taking initiative into anything meant you are an individual and that you can get someone killed 🙄
@@jgmairsoft735 yeah, but would you rather be walking around like a 3 year old with piss in your pants, or a few minutes of cardio?
@@usernamunavailiable Dont be a f*cking idiot. They drill you to follow orders, not your own pride.
Scream at this piece of paper till the tape comes off.. dayum that's fucking funny lmaooo
I got a boot to the chest and knocked back about 5 feet when my drill instructor found out I was older than him he asked me if I thought I should get special treatment and I told him I was just wondering what happened to respecting your elders he didn’t find it funny like the recruits around me did. Memories forever Semper Fi!!!
When I went to Army basic in the 80's we had an attractive female Assistant Drill Sergeant for our platoon. The funniest thing that happened was towards the end she had us in formation and she said "Don't think about coming back after it was all over and asking me out on a date." Then she added "Don't let that thought even cross your mind." One of the guys said "Thought crossed my mind." She let the rest of us stand at ease while she dogged him out.
Define "dogged him out"?
yea I know someone who run into his female D.I. about a year later . He was dating her for a while . P .S. out of uniform she was smoking hot
@@johntaormina1084 But was she a thoughtful, respectful human being "out of uniform" or was she a DI idiot 24/7?
I was organizing my drawer by my bunk bed and was so focused, I was whispering a song in Spanish. My drill Sargent snuck up on me and heard me singing, then he proceeded to roast me and make me do push ups singing Daddy Yankee “La Gasolina” 😂🤣😭😭😭
Ummm delious
Indiana north snob
Hahahahaha
DI made a joke and we all laughed and he punished us for laughing at HIS JOKE. Made us pay for it for 3 hours. We didn’t even finish our training that day.
Me too actually. He says " I do shit at the last minute, because then it only takes a minute" and we all hold a straight face and he says "alright that was pretty funny" and he let us laugh for about 3 seconds and then hits us with "alright now lock it up"
@@K1llStr3akMad My dad was a Marine 1969-1971. Maybe that's why I do shit the last minute cause it only takes a minute, like cutting the grass, pullin weeds, or whatever I've been puttin off. I just get it done, last minute, then get back to my leisure time off.
sounds like a real ass.
DID I TELL YOU, YOU CAN LAUGH?!!!!
RIP lmao.
To all the soldiers, marines and everyone who served, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SERVICE! You are amazing people and much stronger than I could ever be!
you would do fine
The only thing I’ve done wrong in basic training that got me into trouble was being a smart ass towards our sergeant. Oh boy the punishment was creative to say the least.
So, as I'm not the only one writing out his story, I will tell mine as well. So I was being a smart ass on training grounds. The first time our platoon over achieved, the first time we were good at something and we were not yelled at. We were about to go on the bus and finish the mission but I did something stupid. I walked up to the sergeant and told him I can't go on the bus because my mat was still on the field. He never gave me the order to pick it up. Which was usual in our army. You only do what you are told. He forgot. He asked me what the problem was, and I said something like: "You forgot to give the right orders" Boy was he pissed. He made me stand to attention, and screamed at me that I'm just a small piece of shit and that he would own me. He ordered me to get the mat and the whole platoon stood in attention before the bus. The gave a speech about the platoon not being motivated enough. Me, the man of honour had to recieve the MG. We were ordered to but our gas masks on, it was a very hot day. And we had to run up a Hill with masks on. Me on the front line, next to the sergeant with a gas mask on and a MG on my shoulders.
But something clicked in me. I knew I fucked up. I knew it was my fault. I was never the fittest, and never the best soldier. Just an average boy. But on this day I ran. I was always right next to the sergeat. He kickt it, I kicked it. It was crazy, he couldn't get rid of me. He tried, but I fucking couldn't let go. It was my worst and my best day at the same time.
@@Holydecipher That last bit sounds like some Savage Goggins shit right there!
Jonny Wilson hey John. i don’t know what goggins means. But it was something else. I laugh about it today, but I’ll never forget.
@@Holydecipher David Goggins. The man is a fucking savage. Straight up beast. David Goggins - Boat crew two. It'll make sense if you listen to that one story.
For me, it was the fact that I kept pushing and sweating like crazy on a 20 miler, and was f-ing up over and over, and bleeding out the back of my boots, as I sweated through 5 pairs of socks due to the 102 fever I didn’t know I had. So, they had a ball with me, thinking I wasn’t focusing and was dragging. They knew I was capable of more and I’m sure it was fun watching me mess up harder and harder In retrospect I know it must of looked pretty dang funny and I was in such good shape, other than the Swine Flu it turned out I had, that I went for 8 hours before they said I fell off the bars and didn’t get up- just flat out face down in the mud, kicking like I was having a fit of some kind. Unbelievable experience that took me 2 days to wake up. They were most worried about my feet, until they got the blood work back and found that the flu that several of the people got, including 2 drill instructors, was Swine flu. Fun for all for sure!
Eye balling an TI. He saw my eyes flick sideways. I had three hats against my head.
I used "Eyeballs" in my middle school classroom for years. I've had students join the Corps, and come visit me when home, just to tell me about their reaction to hearing it at PI. Priceless!
I couldn't eat chow fast enough before we had to leave the chow hall. I put a packet of saltine crackers inside my utilities blouse for later. Back in the squad bay, my blouse was not aligned with my belt buckle , so my DI straightened my blouse. As he did it, he heard the "crackle" from the cracker packet. He opened my blouse and pulled out the crackers. I immediately knew I was in trouble. He asked why there was a package of crackers inside my blouse. I told him that the private couldn't eat fast enough and was always hungry. I thought he was going to slug me. Instead, he told me to put a tag on my utilities saying "extra rations" when we went to chow. I went from 120 lbs to 135 when I got out of boot camp. Semper Fi.
Cpl. E. Strader, USMC
1975-1980
My rackmate used to smuggle the PB packets out. One day the DI's found the empty ones stuffed in the frame of our rack and we both got smoked.
Awesome
Sounds like they didn't want you to starve to death. That's always a good sign
The only time I had a drill sergeant after me was when I didn't tell anyone that I was injured, the day we did bayonet training on a running course we did pugels afterwards and things were not going good for anyone because everyone seemed to be getting hit with the wooden handle in-between the big foam padding on each end, 2 people had their heads split and had to be taken right away to get their heads looked at and treated to stop the bleeding and other people sprained ankles or broke fingers, I ended up with a sprained ankle and a concussion and my left elbow got fucked up to the point it had swelled up and I could straighten my arm out but I acted like I was fine and we marched back to our barracks and went to put some of our gear away and then come back out and into formation before going to the chow hall and when we had formed back into formation I was in first squad and as I went to make a about right face to march off my one drill sargeant who had taken me under his wing since I was basically the smallest person in my platoon I was 5'11 but only weighed around 125 to 130 pounds , when I went to turn right he saw that my left arm was bent and he pulled me aside and asked me why my arm wasn't straight and I told him that my left elbow was swollen and he just looked at me and somehow he also figured out that I had a concussion also and he asked me if I had any other injuries and I told him I had a sprained ankel also and all hell broke loose as he yelled at me for not telling anyone I was injured and he took me and afew other people over to the one hospital to be checked out and I told him I didn't report my injuries because I didn't want to be held back because I had already seen afew people get taken out of my platoon because of injuries and he calmed down and told me that I wasn't going to get held back because the week ahead of training was mostly going to be class work and I could make-up the physical training things at a later date
You could remove 80% of this and have the same story 😐
The Corps sure as shit didn’t teach you grammar.
Have you heard of a period.
We had one drill, vietnam vet, that would glue sand to the brim of his round brown, he would come up to you while your standing at attention and get into your face and peck at the bridge of your nose with the brimm of his hat, you didnt dare move. he would say, " if you feel froggie, Jump".
7:55 "ITS AMAZIMG WHAT MCDONALDS CAN DO!"
Hardest part of this besides the obvious physical demands would be not laughing right in their face at some of the damn voices and faces they come up with lmfao
Like your profile 😂
100% guarantee you would not laugh more than once. 😂
I guaran-damn-tee you wouldn't so much as smirk.
At some point they stop yelling instructions and just start yelling
I think the worst thing you can do coming in to Marine Corps boot camp is to come in overweight.
Darkgreen Marine FACT! PCP was the worst two weeks of my life! But I was in excellent shape afterwards!
I'd say it's worse when underweight, cause as an overweight person you have so much more energy to burn
perfect way to end up in porkchop platoon ...lol
They slapped my tits everytime.
Being overweight is actually your own worst enemy; especially when it comes to the pull ups. The more someone weighs, the harder it is to perform pull ups.
Recruit: *collapses*
Jameson: "Yeah, he's not gonna make it."
🤣🤣🤣
I mean, he looked EXACTLY like pvt. Pyle from Full Metal Jacket
looks more like Captain America before the serum haha
Sadly there were these drama queens. Like everything they did was some impassible obstacle. Most didn't make it.
dat burger motivation tho.. worked like a charm
I love the one where the 3 drill instructors are yelling at this kid while he's trying to make a phone call. Can you imagine what would be going through the minds of the parents on the other side when they received to call or heard the message later? It would be probably be something along the lines of "What did our child just get himself or herself into?".
I am probably one of the few who went through enlisted boot camp during the height of the Vietnam War and then later went though Officer Training School. Believe me, the enlisted boot camp of the Vietnam War period was ten times worse.
Captsaison the things I would do for video of that
I bet it was, and much respect to you. Young Marines these days would tell you, "But you didn't have the crucible." Because some of them think they're harder than anyone that went through before the crucible.
I've heard it was worse because they could insult you and yell at you but would also hit you in the balls/stomach/ribs + hard slapping regularly, but I bet the yelling these days is worse. Most instructors these days only have constant-insane yelling as a tool to exert "their" superiority, since beating is forbidden; correct me if I'm wrong.
What happened?
I believe it was tougher then for us than today because of the physical abuse they could give us back then....but no matter when a person goes through boot it’s tough and you earned the title US Marine
I went through Air Force boot in mid 70’s and when you experience this 1st thought was what the hell did I do. Having said that, watching this video man am I glad I choose the Air Force. I experienced some of these things being shown, but not on the same level. Anyone who says they weren’t scared especially that 1st night is lying. I would do it again, that feeling at the end of boot, knowing you were pushed beyond your breaking point was very emotional, something you will never forget and can never be taken from you. I am and always will be a Veteran, a member of a very small club. It was a honor to serve my country.
I did stand in front of the mirror and scream, “I’m not stupid, you are!” Completely Classic! Love the Corps 🇺🇸
M. Bush Jr. I had to do that too after asking another recruit if he was stupid 😂
I used to wiggle my toes in when in formation because I fidget and that how I cope but one day our instructer caught the slight movement and next then you know I'm nickanamed twinkletoes for the rest of IMT and had to wiggle my toes whenever I was at attention around that instructor. I to this day don't wiggle my toes.
My asshole would twitch!
@@daynight4087 Twinklehole!
😂😂😂
As a recruit, fleet marine and now as a civilian I still have the habit of yelling “KILL” in response to a request. Boy does that get some looks...
You pog
😂
the facts you must be a post don’t ask don’t tell. Lmao!
I was Army. My senior DS, a Filipino-American E-7, threw a foot locker down the barracks length. I'm Filipino and he was speaking Tagalog to me initially and I was thrown off but yelled my answers in English. My DS's were absolutely awesome. I had... have the utmost respect for them.
Shortly after getting out, at my new job, the president of the company had asked me to do something personally. I acknowledged and responded “kill.” He looked at me very confused. Awkward explanation.
Lol sorry for asking for another explanation but what does it mean?
Funny boot camp habit. Whenever I get back from the gym and wake my lady up for work before I go to work I flip the lights on and yell lights lights lights lmao. She hates it.
@Stanley Broniszewski you took the words out of my mouth. My DI didn’t have a stick but he could throw a trash can and have it bounce off every bunk in the line
😆😆😆😆 too funny
I used to watch the first part of Full Metal Jacket w/a buddy, former Marine, and we’d laugh our butts off remembering how it was in 1965 when we went through. What stuck w/me to this day is getting shaved & showered in less than five minutes, and I’m 74 yrs old!
My first night at basic training, I realized that they couldn’t hit me. After that, I was good to go. I didn’t misbehave, but I didn’t freak when I got yelled at.
Exactly. I got my ass wooped growing up, chairs flying at me, my ass flying out the door... and I was living in my own at 15. going through basic/boot at 17 was nothing. The hardest thing I had to do was try not to laugh at the instructors when they tried to scare me. 21 years later, I laugh at people that cried 😆. If it wasn’t for my hereditary heart condition I’d go back for fun.
@@DanielSawn I had an abusive mother, so yea. Not phased. I was an avid skateboarder when I joined, so I was in good shape, and I did laugh at other grown men ACTAULLY CRYING during beatings. The worst that that happened to me was passing out, and that wasn't a choice.
7:20, DI separated the group like when Moses parted the Red Sea. That’s tough💯
The way he said "get back" was pretty intense too
God help you if you don't move fast enough and you touch the DI. You and the quarter deck will get to know each other very well...
“DI outta nowhere” meme should be a thing
I replied "yes mam" to my Heavy. He was about 5'5" , I was 6'2" 130 lbs. Somehow he lifted me up by my blouse and slammed me into the wall behind me. I thought I was about to be killed. But he just went off on me. To this day I have no idea why those words came out of my mouth.
Soo much respect for our soldiers that serve. Soo much respect! You guys are the reason I can wake up knowing I live in the best damn country in the world!¡!
A little heavy on swallowing that bullshit propaganda aren't we? lol
I was a fat body!!! 1992 I got smoked by every Drill Instructor from every platoon just because, but I graduated top in the platoon. Worst smoke I was a safety violation on the range, I still remember my range safety cleared my weapon with the cleaning rod and before I could place my weapon on safe the Drill Instructor Sgt. Mcllian took my weapon out of my hand and my weapon was on FIRE!! I left the pit with a busted head and blood running down my face..
I have seen guys that got smoked turn out to be the top guys. congrats.
nothing close to that but I had long hair asked my recruiter if I should cut it, he said no, they cut it the first day.... WRONG. however long we were in forming, I had long hair. DI's would from other platoons would make detours just to fuck with me. cut your hair before you go. dont beleive anything your recruiter says lol.
I went out of an entrance instead of an exit in a crowded mess hall that I was unfamiliar with and ended up apologizing to the door in front of the entire hall. The only relief I got was when someone laughed and ended up in my place. LOL!
They sure come up with the most creative punishments. That's for sure 🤣
You did that door dirty, tho.
@@theascendunt9960 That's what Dachau guards are made off.
I went to MCRD San Diego in the summer of 1980 and the worst day in boot camp was the day on the rifle range when I had a new zit pop out on my nose, hell I payed for that all day long. But no matter what we went through, I still think that was the most important and life changing three months of my entire life. I know it still influences my everyday life even 40 years later.
Just think “they are forging me in to the an unstoppable machine”
Yeah until you get to the fleet and lose that motivation 3 months in.
USMC. During bootcamp i remember a recruit named pool could not swim.
Of friend of mine told me when it comes to getting smoked by a DI:
You’ll either end up really smart or really strong.
After "Boot" in 1973, nobody that ever yelled at me, could get me to flinch and (or) show any type of emotion!
Nobody came close to a DI yell, nobody!!
Their vocal cords are pretty much shredded from yelling a lot to be honest.
Never imagined I would be in for 24 years. 6 Navy, 18 Army. Respect to all branches.
We lost in our drill competition in bootcamp against our other companies but we were so used to drilling with our drill hat and not the senior so he was like, dont worry u guys did ur best then took us out in our drill camies and literally smoked us for an hour lol yelling at us about how we sucked
Good times, man...good times...
That last guy... way underweight like I was. Triple RAT, which meant I was the first in the chow hall, given everything I asked for and then more, and last out of the chow hall. Gained over 30lbs and was a fighting machine ready to go! The USMC gave to a whole new way of thinking... the way they molded me. I will never think negatively on that!
Had a DI thrown a footlocker at some small guy, it hit the kid in the head, kid went to medical and never saw the DI again, it was years ago, stuff happens I guess.
they get in trouble in the Navy if they barely touch the recruits
You know when you spit on the deck and the DI instructs you to pick it up and put it in your pocket?
Don't throw up on the quarterdeck. I had the flu and learned this lesson the hard way... In my pocket it went.
2:15 that drill sergant would be a killer vocalist
some of the Dis can sign cadence like champs. Boys to Men for the Corps.
Drill Instructor you mean.
Sounds like he could do a mean slipknot cover song
spelt wrong AND worded wrong
wow
'Spelt' is not a word, turd. Wow
Went to mcrd san Diego June 7,1966 straight out of high school.plt 2033.on the day we were going to Pendleton for rifle range,we were exiting chow hall,running out the senior drill instructor was standing in between the 2 lines of us,for some reason he side stepped in front of me and ran him over sending his smokey bear hat rolling.we fell in afterwards washing our trays and double timed back to barracks.he called me to plt house,made me pull out wooden stairs,put in platoon Street and climb them, screaming "By your leave sir" for three hours.after securing steps,he asked if I had played football.i said no sir.he replied,he had never been hit so hard,especially by a skinny assed recruit.i laugh about it now,but I thought I was dead when it happened.Semper Fi!!
My drill instructors only messed with me cause I was 6’7 so I was gonna get bodied by default
im 6'7 too haha
I'm in 6'7 league too haha.
You fucking giants... all of you! 😂😂😂
I'm 9'4
I was in the Army because of family traditions. I do respect the marines, they can bring hell do any enemy. When I was in Ranger school we had a few Marines Recon guys with us, those guys were badass. Semper fi marines.
I kept screwing up in AF BMTS, by having a smirk on my face with our TI. My grandfather was like a military DI from WWII, but I would try to look away to keep from getting the grin on my face and then it was on. My habits are folding my T-Shirts in a perfect square, and cleaning the toothpaste tube. LOL>
They remind me of my ex after 6 beers.
Haha classic...
I wasn’t USMC I was army at Fort Benning my drill instructor told me to get down and beat my face what did this 18 year old private do? Got on my back and started slapping my face. The elevation of Fort Benning dropped below sea level all the push ups flutter kicks I did for the next week every time he looked at me
Plz tell me they gave you a nickname
They loved flutter kicks. Sandhill hated that place.
"I gotta hamburger!"........"large coke??"
My Dad was 20 years U.S. Navy and retired as a Sr. Chief. Yeah, Chiefs run the Navy and believe me, he knew how to run our house. When I was 13 me and my older brother snuck out one summer night and partied until 4am. Dad knew we had so he came into our rooms at daybreak, opened the shades to our windows and barked "if you can hoot with owls you can soar with the eagles! GET UP!". It's probably why I never joined the military LOL.
My dad throws my stuff all over the place and screams in my face normally.
That's what made boot camp easy 😂 already conditioned boss
Been there, I grew up in my father's own personal bootcamp
@@Dang3rMouSe For me it wasn't a bootcamp.. it had no routine and just like he snapped at random times and lashed out at us usually for nothing at all
@@frankcastle4715 He probably has bipolar disorder. My father is the same way.
@@General_Griffin .. no he's not. He's just abusive and an alcoholic.
who remembers the locker monster? down at formation and one of your DI's comes down and says the locker monster just left!!!! in formation thinking shit did i lock it? everyone upstairs to see who he hit!
kinda remember that being said. Good times.
it was the bay fairies for my group, DS would come and tell us, "Alright everyone it looks like the bay fairies came in and left gifts." not a good day that bay was f**ked up. took us weeks to fix the floor the DS regretted what he did to it
Lol I remember the locker monster. Usually items were scattered and the locker would be smashed and broken when we got back.
I got in trouble most for smiling and not saying "THIS RECRUIT".
Parris Island 2010, didn't make through boot camp, went to Fort Jackson for BCT for the Army in 2011, I never gave up going into the military, I learned discipline from my time in 3rd Battalion, Mike Company on the Island, I learned to increase my individual strengths from the Army, they both go hand in hand. One thing I learned muscle memory, discipline and teamwork.
"It's amazing what McDonalds can do." ROFL
I died 😂😭
Drill Instructor: "STOP TOUCHING YOUR FACE!!!"
A lot of the other military's countries will say "yelling doesnt help" When youre under fire and all you say and understand is yelling it will absolutely help. "hmm yes private it appears the enemies are firing at us, hmm quite yes. Return fire respectfully" The only response you'd hear is "WHAT?!?!"
Royal Marines. The creme da le creme! No need to shout and holler! Only when required or you F. Up! Use extreme measures of sarcasm and humour. Royal Marine reputation? Nuff said. Go further? The Gurkhas never shout or scream! It's considered extremely rude and ignorant. They have no need, as it's considered, if you join the Gurkhas you want to be there. Their reputation as per Royal Marines? Exceptional!
Obviously Americans only know how to be loud.... that's OK the rest of the military world can deliver the goods without being LOUD.
kevin maddick someone obviously woke up in the wrong side of the Boston tea party today
kevin maddick And this is where you just took the wrong turn.
@@Branbran1993 He didn't turn, he kept a straight line unlike Americans
Literally calling everyone ma’am and sir
Never left me never will.
I still skip numbers when counting down for my kids. I'll give you 20 seconds! 20,19,14,12,4, ZERO! lol
I recently taught my two lovely children what the quarter deck is...needless to say, they probably won't be lipping off to Mom about the dishes for a while. Semper Fi
10:55 When you're in a bossfight & your controller breaks
😂😂😂
Okay this one got me 💀
Marine Corps is the gift that keeps on giving. Thanks for sharing. Yep, we are a different breed for sure. I wasn't one of the recruits that was ever singled out much. But, our Senior Drill Instructor thought I was a guy named Murphy. He got us to both stand at attention next to each other and just said, "Uncanny!" and walked away. During final drill, he specifically called me Murphy when he adjusted our positions. And, he knew I would react as he'd put Murphy in a different squad.
Is it me or does that kid look like he's 12 in the beginning. The DI's throats must hurt after all that jeez
That's a female lol
that kid...
@@donlou504 I would hope so, it had titties
@@donlou504 I was having a really hard time figuring that out. My conclusion was female.
DI's used to put starch on the inside of their shirts, so that even in the heat they would never outwardly appear to be sweating. What a mind game!
