The drill instructors talking softly is honestly more intimidating than them yelling.😂
That's even more scarier when the DI is being all calm
@@lunakitty1990 Calm before the storm
That´s why every army in the world does that. ;) A proper army does not need any screaming and shouting.
exactly it seems like theyre actually pissed XD
Honestly like hell nah i ain't trying to have a conversation with the drill instructor. To much stress trying to pick my words wisely. I'd prefer the yelling and yes sirs.
They're gonna yell at you when you do something right, and they'll yell when you do something wrong. Once you realize this, basic becomes so much easier.
Sounds like being Married with Children.
@@canvas11xD sounds like your mom
@@kyiaao loser
@@kyiaao Loser
I just got back from basic, didn't think I would get yelled at for doing doing right thing
'This recruit made the mistake of looking at the senior drill instructor. The senior drill instructor proceeded to lose his mind' 🤣
The guy asking the questions really is helping these young men out. He’s making them realize all the things they took for granted.
but he still fucking with their mind tho.
@@stijnvandamme76 oh for sure lol. It’s definitely an aggressive way, but the things he’s saying is going to be instilled.
Ya that's the whole deal. You learn quickly, a few days in actually lmao
Damn... Bro.
@@stijnvandamme76As soon as you come under fire you will thank them for the traumatic and memorable lessons they tirelessly instilled in you.
*DI gently taps chest*
“What’s up buddy?”
*Shitting myself through the phone*
yeah alot more scary than the typical screaming
That was a bait
Nah one day I was doing laundry and a DI walked in and started talking to me normally and I didn't know how to respond or if this was a trap
@@foxtail2139 Bet your ass it'll always be a trap.
Damn right😂 all of a sudden you don’t remember locking shit up or if you closed your ILB pack.. was that corner of my bed too lose😂😂
God I love that. Recruit almost falls 30 some feet. "You ready to listen?" "yes sir"
Na they have the top rope they know they can stop him lol
@@daeclipse03 the di's do it on purpose.
If you've never experienced this, they tie a rope around your whole crotch and hip area super tight and you have to climb up the tower while having your nuts choked... just to either get the wall or get special treatment and rappel straight down with no wall to support you. I graduated with Hotel Company back in 2019. Platoon 2167. MCRD will always have a part of me there...
@@OffWidthCrack well fuck yea they do
I'm not ashamed to admit it, I was one of those privates who also ended up upside down on that wall. Although they do wrap the rope nice and tight around you, so everyone there was able to see my stupid ass upside down 30 feet in the air lol
When the drill instructor yelled "Say something!", I could actually picture at least one random recruit shouting "Something, Sir!"
Lol....that be me!
😂 lmao. i did something similar. one time our heavy DI was balling us out for something and shouted "You all are F'n crazy and outta your minds!". for some inexplicable reason me (and only me) replied loud "no sir". for whatever miracle, the DI actually ignored that and kept rambling
I joined in '95, became a Senior Drill Sergeant in 2012, retired in 2019 as a 1SG. Best 23 years of my life. I miss it everyday and I wouldn't be the man or Veteran I am today if it wasn't for my DS's and the Soldiers I led and served with.
what about the people you killed because of the elitists
Thank you for your service sir!
Thanks Top!
Drill instructors are useless in a combat situation.
@@Janus-fn2uz soldiers are useless in a combat situation without drill instructors, what's your point
Drill instructor speaking softly,
Recruits: Wait, this is illegal…
Recruit: I'm in danger...
They were actually about to graduate, and things do tend to calm down a bit at that point. Your DI will actually talk to you ALMOST like a human. You can tell because they have high and tights. That last week was the first time I had ever heard my SDI laugh. It was terrifying and relaxing at the same time.
The drill instructor said calmly
It means they are mad
@@Ramkatral 🤤👀 oufff!
The instructor that scared me the most wasn't the one that was yelling or smoking me out, it was the instructor that came up to you with a calming voice and played mind games with you while smoking the fuck out of you all calm
CORNER,DIG
It's really nerve-wracking when they do that as well. Mind races and thinking if I say the one wrong thing here. I'm getting smoked.
ugh I was guide and fucked up real bad in the chow hall, I got escorted back to the squad bay and smoked in the showers 1 on 1 with my kill hat, and he whispered the entire time shit was fucking awful.
@@cmason87 he purposely did that to make you feel way more uncomfortable. That is just unlucky hahaha
My Chief from bootcamp was like that
The white D.I. at 5:15 who keeps calling the recruit “son” must have joined when he was 17 and busted his ass to rank up, cause ain’t no way that dudes over 22😂😂
With the arms of bulimic hairdresser.
That’s light green DI to you, son…
I am the son of a Vietnam era USMC Captain but that DI gives off weird vibes. I think my first response would be, "I'm not your son, SIR!", and then just deal with the repercussions afterwards.
@@8pointbear753White. Marines are White. Soldiers are White. Airmen are White. The Founders were White. The melting pot?
European.
@@CptNutyes okay and then they’ll beat the shit out of you 😂
My experience with a Drill Instructor was in 1971, I was a wise guy, with a quick wit. I was asked what I thought of a Drill Instructor, my reply was "Sir, I think that the senior Drill Instructor nuts, and off his meds". What in hell did I sat that for, they rode my ass for a solid week, none stop. Round two came when, again I was asked the same question, my reply this time was "I think all Drill instructors are off their meds, this time, the platoon run up and down a hill until chow was served. I survived the ordeal, graduated top of my class, after graduating, my instructor finally show his huma side, he targeted me to get a rise out me, but instead, he got a laugh from my comments. He was the instructor that I emulated for the rest of my career. my motto, that I learn from my father was "Don't let your mouth write a check that your ass can't cash".
One thing that got me through pretty easy without being targeted (as frequently as others) is I remember a friend who was already a Marine told me that it's all just a mind game and that "the trick is to think of the drill instructors as really aggressive personal trainers who give you war tips while destroying you with exercises".
Hahaha, wow, what a cakewalk these days, unreal.
My Grand Father served in Korea
As a Marine, Had two Uncles in the Corp, I was already fk'd up in the head before I got on the Bus.
My Grandfather was a stern man, who had us Chopping wood in single digit weather and loading it on a tractor when we were 9.
I had 5 Uncle's they All Served
Just a question, there's gotta be some recruits that snaps and fights/talks back.what happens then or to them?
@@martinmartin8666 I've been thru two separate basic trainings. And I'm 15yrs in already so I'll do my best to answer your question.
This is in the Barracks, so it's after their first day, indoc week. They take all of the fight out of the recruits when they get off the bus, and these guys are seriously sleep deprived at this point.
It's not the talking back and acting out that D.S, D.I and company commanders worry about it's the malingering and suicide watch Aka Fire Watch.
A recruit is more likely to hard him or herself than a D.I
I've witnessed a couple do it.
@@martinmartin8666 I did however lose it on a D.I once but my circumstances were different during mail call I got a letter that my Grandmother the woman who raised me had passed away ... I lost my military baring , the D.I got in my face close enough to spit on me..
We had a stare down and with in an instant another D.I approached the two us and explained to the D.I what had happened.. my D.I respected my state of mind.. toned it down, he even pulled me aside apologized and checked on my well being.
We're still friends years later as a matter of fact I seen him on deployment.
That one drill sergeant that walked around talking calmly asking what was so hard about training cracked me up 😆
Marines are drill instructors. The Army has drill sergeants.
USMC are DI's drill sergeants are in the Army
He didn’t impress me at all. My Senior was a really great instructor. His team emulated him. He taught! He instructed. He almost let my platoon put pressure on ourselves. I can’t speak for the rest, but I think we wanted to please him. He was a great man!
@@fitzdawg821 that's called Stockholm syndrome, son.
He's the best. 😆 🤣
Once you accept that no matter what you do they will never be satisfied, it becomes simpler. Just do what you are told, as quickly and loudly as possible. Don’t let the platoon down. You’ll get through.
They are not yelling, they’re speaking at the level where everyone can hear them. That way everyone has equal opportunity to learn from the achievements & failures together.
Oooh rah
"Yep, yep light duty king right there"
That DI killed me
Going to Sickbay was a 99% chance of getting dropped from the regular platoon for us (1985).
He was one of my drill instructiors. He would absolutely smoke the piss out of us. LoL
Light duty king lol. I had chaving during the crucible between the legs. Painful as he'll lol.
It looked like he had light duty he's a smartass I would of got kicked out
@@mjktrash can say the same for us in 2017. Moral of the story: If you want to get out of boot camp dont go to BAS for any reason
ssgt talking to the recruits about their experience had me dying😂 but i know if i were those recruits id be scared shitless💀😂
They were trust me .....
That SSGT looks like he's 19 years old.
@Carl Panzram I figured he was older, he just looks really young.
Well especially because there is no right answer.
@@TheWabbit hahahaha you are never right!!!!!! Good ol days
39 years but cadence still brings goose bumps
I was Army. Combat Engineer. We went through OSUT. Basic and MOS school combined and led by Drill Sergeants who were also Combat Engineers. 16 weeks.
Hardest part was living with 200 other people. Some trainees were just genuinely the worst kind of people. Bullys, evil, psychotic, etc. Dealing with them was the worst.
Female combat army engineer I agree!
What do mean by that? Are you saying the people you served with were the worst? I’ve heard nothing but good stories of meeting the nicest people in the army
@@felixash9716 As I said, there were 200 in my training company. Of those, about 20 were terrible people. 10 were probably pure evil. A good 50 of them were rude, difficult and raised without manners.
Thats hard to deal with.
@@felixash9716 only certain ppl
Essayons
I got off the bus at around 3am at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri back in the early 70's for Army basic training. It was just about the same as this video with the drill sergeants yelling and the chaos. I still remember the smell of the pine trees. Every time I smell pine trees it takes me back. I wish I could do it all over again. Time flies, and it seems to speed up exponentially the older you get. Enjoy your lives while you can.
I go to Ft Leonard wood for BCT in 2 weeks!
@@juanvidal4466 Outstanding! You'll run many miles with blisters on your feet, do thousands of pushups and sit ups, go through the gas chamber and qualify with the M16 rifle. It'll be rough at times and you'll wonder how the hell could you have ever volunteered for this madness, but once it's over (and it goes by pretty quick) you'll be a better man for it. You will mature beyond your years and the discipline you learn will carry through the rest of your life. Make the most of the experience. May I ask what your MOS will be?
I was there in 2002. The cattle trucks haven't changed a bit

The Ssgt talking to the recruits was my senior he was scary as hell but always remained cool. He defined the definition of mind fuck games
Ssgt Nichols
Hes my favorite. You really discipline yourself when he is fucking with someone I'm guessing? lol.
When was this?
I actually know him. He’s my neighbor. We smoke weed when he has a few months off. He’s actually chill af.
@@abimbolaaku2709 ya seems like it.
My neighbor is a retired Devil Dog he was a DI in the 70’s. He is probably the most quick witted person I know and he is funny as hell. He is also very humble about his service and doesn’t really make a big deal about it. I only found out because I have a few friends that served in the Marines and one day they were over and they started talking to him and it brought a smile to his face talking to a few brother Marines. He is a cool guy
If you plan on going to bootcamp, just remember, it’s most likely going to be 5x harder than anything you’ve experienced.
From all the videos, it looks like 20x harder
For me, it was like highschool, which was also some of the worst years of my life, so yeah, it definitely sucks 😅😅 and that was my experience; it's not hard, it just SUCKS! Like, for the most part, all you gotta do for is just do whatever you're told and sometimes work out really hard for a couple months. But really, the whole point is just to make things SUCK. And enduring the suck for months on end without reprieve, that's the real test of it
It’s weird hearing a drill instructor using his calm voice. *But I know for a fact that it’s scary as fuck*
Once had a martial arts instructor like that - when she sighed and started talking >real< quietly someone in the class was about to get their ass beat...
@@looneyburgmusic lol
He's a senior DI. The only one who doesn't yell all the time.
ours preferred to stay calm, when he actually yelled at us we knew we fucked up so bad. 🥴
When he us calm it means his patience is wearing thin.
Call me crazy, but bootcamp was the most fun I've ever had in my life. I stuck to a strict schedule, was working out, eating good, sleeping good (from being constantly tired), and given a sense of purpose. Met some cool ass people from all around. Being constantly sick was a massive pain though. It literally sounded like a hospital at night. Nonstop coughing all throughout the night
Also, you get used to the yelling REAL quick.
Same. I literally almost miss it.
……..almost.
I agree that, Sir.
I went to bootcamp after graduating from college. I called it the most excellent graduation trip.
That is because you went through new school, not old school. I am sure it was like summer camp for you. That was the intent of the PC crowd when they neutered and de balled the Corp and the DI's
@@thomasryan2679 If you think getting a cakewalk in boot is fine, I am not surprised.
I joined the USAF in the 90s. I would never say my basic training was nearly as tough as Marine recruit training, but I think these instructors are going easy on these kids, and they aren't nearly as funny as ours were. Our TIs would make us laugh, and THEN they would really tear into us for laughing. It was honestly like a game for them.
I wasn't USMC either, but I think these videos are more propaganda than reality. My boot experience was definitely packed with smoke sessions and hilarious shit being said and that was in '06.
The absolute funniest thing I ever experienced in Boot was a guy got caught punching the clown, not only was the smoke session he got hilarious, but for like a week he had to go rack to rack like some guy going door to door on the sex offender registry and state his name, offense, and where his rack was located.
Theres absolutely no way something like that would ever be shown in a video like this for civilians.
@@nocapbussin Perhaps. I've heard from other sources that they have really cracked down on anything that could be considered hazing.
@@phillbr51 I can't speak for boot now, I'm sure it's a shit show because my buddies still active tell me what a shit show just being in the fleet. But at least when I was going through in 06, I was pretty shocked at how the recruiting video was so inaccurate to the reality.
People who never went through this kind of experience would never understand the emotions that you experience while going through. Moments of fear, tears, and sometimes outright comedy!
In Army basic training, I felt all those three feelings. They were strong.
I remember going to bootcamp and my Chief wouldn't let me look in the direction of MCRD because he knew I wanted to be a Corpsman with the Marines. After I graduated I remember him saying "I'll probably never see you in the fleet but I know them Marines will be glad you're with them".
Semper Fi, Doc...
@@jodygotyourgirlngone you stay away from my wife Jody lol. I'm grateful to be considered one of them by my brothers I served with decades ago.
@@fmfdocbotl4358 LOL...I was in 3rd phase when they realized what my first name was...that was the longest phase for me!
we love you doc, rah
@@jodygotyourgirlngone i can imagine all the DIs saying "JODDYYYYYYT?!?!?!?!? YOY FUCKING MY WIFE JODY! HUH RECRUIT JODY?!" 💀💀💀
7:34 it must really suck to have someone running next to you, telling you how slow you are. Brought a smile to my face
Better than getting in the truck behind them.
Unsat for sure
I remember when I was in Army basic running first thing in the morning and toward the end of a 2 mile run looked to my left to see a Colonel running next to me. He ran pace with me for a few seconds and then in a real quiet voice only I could hear went, Private you seriously going to let an old man like me beat you in front of your Drill Instructors? You know what will happen to you if you do. I said SIR NO SIR, picked up the pace like the devil himself was after me with a pitchfork and beat him across the finish line. For all the times the DIs and the like yell at you in basic, looking back, deep down they want you to succeed They look good if you look good but will never tell you that to your face.
6:18 I would be struggling keeping a straight face 💀
Boot camp is the most fun you’re never gonna want to have again
It gets to the point where you aren't really scared when the drill instructor is yelling at you. But instead become scared whenever the drill instructor is speaking to you calmly because you know you're about to die. 🤣
Haha
Man 2:27 is such a reminder of the night after my Army graduation ceremony, and the night before our family day. It’s the first time our Drill Sergeants sat and actually talked with us, like a friend, like men. We got to pick his brains about certain things, sat in the bay with us until 3am, he was on duty. We were all awake and too excited to sleep, all we had to do was wake up for PT and then had family day the next day, so we just chilled, talked with them and cleaned mostly.
I dont know how to explain it, but sitting and talking all night with the men that we were all so terrified of, yet respected so much, like friends with a mutual respect, was such a good feeling man. It was awesome. Felt so accomplished.
and that was my boot camp the whole time
02:25 crappy boots and bullshit
I was terrified of my Drill Sergeant!!!
@@collectorofcats294 my squad leader Instructor in Boot camp was a person, a man i highly respect to this snd i would nobody advise ro be willfully negligent with him, but there was no reason to fear him
Talked with you like a friend? Right. I'm sure they screamed in your face for having the temerity to ask them a question.
@@terminat1 an Instructor who does that should be openly reprimanded immediatly at the very least
Sorry but our military has an older and very successful tradition of that than your colonial army, in fact i believe your first inspector general stood in this tradition.
And my squad leader in boot camp believed leading by example not failing by screaming
Man id never answer everything right...thank you guys that put up with this and fought for my freedom!
i could watch these videos all day. I spent 13 weeks growing up in this chaos as a 17 year old and its these weeks i hold nearest to my heart
7:08. You can tell that DI genuinely likes that recruit. I love their interaction.
As a person who’s been through Navy bootcamp, not even a fraction of it is as entertaining as this 😂
I saw the funniest sh*t in Marine corps boot camp. Easily the craziest, most hilarious 3 months of my life.
@@DCOM.20 Sounds like air force basic. Towards the last few weeks we saw our MTIs less and less
443 hooyah, got discharged for medical reasons but honestly.. I don't know how to describe it, the RDCs were pretty cool and helpful, I was just incompetent. Shout out to my POs tho, very nice when they saw me going through SEPS
Lmfao!!!!!!!!!!!!! Right
Never went through basic, but I saw more funny shit on any given 4-day FTX for ROTC than the entire rest of the term.
Mad respect to all those who have served and those who continue to serve. You’re all some strong sons of guns.
I went to Ft Leonardwood in Jan 2008 for 12B OSUT and I loved every minute of it. Hardest part to deal with was the weather. Bring out in formation for 35 minutes while it sleets in only your ACUs or wearing wet gear for a week when it’s 30 out will toughen your ass up real quick.
6:05 - 6:28 is my favorite exchange I've ever seen on video, 100% authentic boot camp feel
Agreed. That was real familiar
the kid looks like he could be the DIs brother LMAO
I went through OSUT at Fort Benning for infantry basic. Towards the last few weeks one of the youngest drill sergeants (who was a bad ass but had a baby face) asked me if I shaved, I said yes drill sergeant. He asked me why my facial hair grew so quickly and I told him "it will happen to you to one day drill sergeant". All the other drills started laughing. I still look back and laugh at that memory. Not so much the 2 hours after where he smoked the dog shit out of me.
How are you alive?
HAHAHA!!! 🤣🤣
Epic
Was it worth it?
Bruh, if I was in your flight there’s no way I could’ve upheld my military bearing. I would’ve been smoked right along with you.
We need so much more of this today. 1988, three days after I graduated High school. Yep PT go for you, good for me. Changed my life for the good.
it's been 29 years and this feels like yesterday. 13 weeks of hell; a lifetime of memories.
The funny thing is that, "Mr. Slowest Recruit" probably threw on his dress blues for the club a week after graduation, telling all the girls how, "badass" he was in training... 🤣🤣
Guarantee he got laid that night. Never fails. Well, as long as he did it in an area that isn't a military town.
Slowest Marine is still pretty fast compared to the average person!
@@Poxyquotl What I was about to say... Anyone who manages to live through Marine training is going to be a couple of pegs above the average person...
@@looneyburgmusic you think this, and you really believe it, until you end up going through the training
and then you meet certain people, who are quite LITERAL bricks, bricks who can only do one thing, and that is to pump shit through their brick body
and these bricks by some miracle graduate with you and then go on to fuck up drill on grad,so ALL of you get smoked
i would still die for these bricks but goddamn does it make you question your life choices when the phantom shitter gets away with pooping in the dryer for the fourth time
Atleast he graduated, I met a few that faked lessons or cried their way back home and it was just army
My brother went through Marine bootcamp back in the early 90s... my son through Army bootcamp in the 2010s... both enjoyed it. As hard as it was at times, they said it was a good experience. I'm proud of them both. My son introduced us to one of his hardest instructors who was just the nicest guy. My son was bragging about how tough the guy was. He had told my son that he was also a farm boy and made hay so I challenged the instructor to come up to our farm in the middle of summer and make hay with my wife. She was 118 soaking wet but could bale hay like no other. My wife and the instructor had a good laugh together. Nice guy... tough instructor. My son is still in touch with him years later...
I look back to my stay at our lovely marine corps recruit depot in San Diego ( HOLLYWOOD BABY!!) and almost miss those days. Then I remember how much it fucking sucked ass every single hour of the day! Got some great stories to tell the next generation and to also get great laughs at the bar. I'm just glad that I was young and in good physical shape when I arrived. god bless those disgusting fat bodies and asvab waivers who showed up to sacrifice themselves so the d.i.'s only focused on me a few times a day instead of riding me like a donkey
Nice sentiment which is true if we had the same leaders in Washington that feel the same. Sadly we do not.
That's a great story. Please thank them for their service and for protecting the greatest country in the world.
Looks like your wife was turned on by the instructor 😂
I'm sure they had more than a good laugh together baling hay 🙄🔥
Goose bumps! love it. Real deal marines in the making!! Semper fidelis!!
That calm guy who pops up multiple times through the video would make a brilliant actor
I miss being a US Marine drill inst…I change thousands of lives and actually got phone calls or letters from those new recruits that left a different person . People gotta understand that all these hard ass Drill instructors have been through a 2 round of training. Which is twice as hard as this! It’s a all a process
Absolutely. I went through recruit training in 2005. It was t until maybe 5 years ago I got the nerve to friend request our “kill hat.” He was the most feared. But now in the civilian world, he helps people who need homes and things like that. I thanked him for the most miserable time of my life hahaha. It was worth it.
It changed my life! Glad I joined the Corps! I would be a nobody today! Semper Fi
Thank you! At 73, I can still hear things my Drill Instructors taught me.
The recruit trying not to smile at 6:10 and then the interaction that followed had me dying 😂
Just proves how soft its become, there were no smiles when I went through, and NEVER from a DI.. Unlike the video.

"Discipline is the most important thing in army"
*100 drill sergeants continue to yell random words in background*
One of my Army DS was a Marine before he came to the Army. Never really believed him because he was mostly chill but the way he looked at you when you did stupid shit was fucking hilarious. Then one day the Marine jumped out and he was no longer a Drill Sergeant, that was a sure fire Drill Instructor. Absolutely lost his shit and that happened only once.
Well if you would have went in the Marines you would understand!!!!
I almost forgot. You learned something that day didn't you?!!!
The difference is real
I briefly had one that was just like that. We may have had the same one at some point.
I'm glad to hear u had the opportunity
Late in the evening on our son's first night gone after induction, I was actually thinking to myself, "What have we done? Why did we let him do this?" Now, three years in, he's a corporal, tough-minded, in charge of some others and about to deployed. It's amazing what the Corps does for young people who want it and love their country.
It's so great to see! DI's holding back when the cameras are there!
That southerner guys an absolute savage
My friend SSgt Nichols is hilarious in this asking the recruits questions about their experience at MCRD.
What is MCRD
@@jay-ks2jm Marine Corps Recruit Depot. It’s where Marine Recruits begin their recruit training.
I feel for the recruit, he is confused because SSgt is speaking so low and he's terrified if he says the wrong thing he's going to explode hahah
Yeah, he's funny. He seems young to be an instructor too. He has that deep, raspy voice. And sense of humor. I like him.
He is phooking hot 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Its amazing the different training styles amongst all the branches of the military. I personally went army we got yelled at , drilled and smoked but the marines is totally different we never had 3 instructors screaming different stuff at the same time in your face unless the person really needed some motivation. Lol
i’m watching this 8 years after i graduated bootcamp & i must say im honestly impressed by how drill instructors don’t die laughing at some of these responses, like yeah i get it they have bearing but cmon you gotta admit some of these responses are hilarious
Hmm, hardest part/best part?
Worst part: In my day that was mess week. Some sergeant though it would be funny to send me in a room with an onion vat. It was if someone has sprayed acid in my eyes. I ran out crying, literally. The closest I ever came to losing my temper when my vision cleared up and I saw him laughing. This one guy that was hard as nails broke down in the squad room.
Best part: I got sick and had to spend a month in quarantine. When I was recuperating they made me guide, so I got to play the role of leader and give out some much needed support, advice and encouragement to those that had lost hope. This one recruit had completely given up and was about to drop out. When none of the drill sergeants had any luck changing his mind, I went over and convinced him to honor his oath, and stay. He agreed, and went back to training. That's still one of the best feeling I've ever experienced to this day.
"You will forever be know as the slowest runner in Charlie company recruit"
not what he said
@@bifflowman2000 gonna cry about it?
@@zits56able I might :(
what makes it worse,can you imagine being the slowest runner in 1st BATTALION

Its crazy looking at this video and seeing one of these drill instructors as now a NJROTC instructor at a school.
Damn, I remember that day like it were yesterday... Memories... I miss the Corps so much at times
6:53 possibly the most sarcastic "awww" in the history of the English language.
When you go in, you are definitely very naive. I was 19. But the end desired result is always the same. They have to be able to count on you in any situation 24/7. When you are overseas you are an ambassador to the United States.. and expected to behave as such. They are really hard on you because they want the best out of you. Better to wash you out early if you can't cut it. What did you expect? A vacation? LOL. Recruit training is a wake-up call. I worked with a guy that went through Parris Island in the mid-60s. He said 2 weeks there, and he was ready to be sent to Vietnam just to get away from Parris Island
Overseas ambassador? We were all drunk, loud, disrespectful A-holes the entire time I was overseas. But we sure had a good time!!!
Ambassador?? You trained to kill period. Who ever fed you that line of BS ? The Navy’s land fighting force, that is why your pay comes from the Dept. of the Navy. A grunt is a grunt is a grunt, period. Semper Fi !!
Just like Milley is an ambassador to China right?
Mr super sat man over here
Took fourteen weeks to finish Boot Camp. Could not help but laugh every time a drill instructor shouted. Couldn't put the fear-in-me. Did make-it to E6, in the reserves.
Drill Instructors are the best comedians in the world. FACTS. I can't tell how many times I got thrashed for cracking a smile.
6:08...ol' boy was ready to start corpsing. Thank God he held it together. When that drill instructor did that yell, I would've lost it.
Lmaoo thats what im sayin. Maybe could have held it together but that scream was too funny
That scream had me laughing in tears. He held it together 1,000%
100% meme material there
3:23 The way the SDI said “Oh my God 🙄”
😂😂😂 He sounded like he was genuinely fed up with the results
3:05
because that recruit with 82 crunches was a guide if he didn't get demoted or removed from the position. if you look closely when the recruit with 78 you can see the arm band on his arm. Guide is a leadership position and you can't be a weak recruit
5:45 this is my favorite clip 😂
Brought back some memories for sure !!! Good ole Paris Island memories !!
7:43 I love how the drill instructor is trying not to laugh..
When I was in basic, when other recruits would say they didn't think they could make it, I would say, "They can't kill us. It's against the law." In other words, I was just trying to jokingly tell them the physical pain will end one day, that's the easy part. We just had to survive the mental games. That's how they beat you down. Don't let them.
It always amazed me how so many of the recruits failed to see the fuck fuck games for what they were. SDI picked one person out for not yelling loud enough and made the entire platoon do mountain climbers in the squad bay for an hour? You can bet your ass that most of the platoon were going to hate that dude and treat him like shit, even though it was pretty obvious that he was yelling as loud as he could and the SDI was going to fuck with us either way.
These days?..Its a cakewalk, don't sweat any of it. The PC crowd has long ago neutered and de nut the Corp and DI's. There is no mind games left...just some discomfort ploys. Hell, all you need to do is pass certain requirements and your in.
@@sword-and-shield Dude I went through PI in '09 and got my lights punched out by a DI during the first week because I said "I" instead of "this recruit". There was plenty of fuck fuck games. I sincerely doubt things have changed much since then.
@@KhreamedKhorne From 09 to now probably not. But 09 was clearly after the neutering and de nutting regardless of what happened to YOU. What use to "be" changed, when the whiners and PC crowd swept in. Were there a few rogues left willing to take a service hit, for awhile after? I'm sure. It was getting soft long before Clinton brought in the "don't ask don't tell" crowd. Most of the hardcore retired off, not wanting any part of that Corp. If you want facts of how it used to be, let me know, it will shock you, and anyone going through when I did will confirm it. If YT don't sensor the post.
@@KhreamedKhorne Did you go through the Island in 3rd Battalion?
Went through boot camp in the 80's,loved it.
Drill Sergeants Romano used to be in the marines, he was one of the drill Sergeants in my company. That guy is a legend with his trust, raw, harsh words
I wouldn't last 1 minute.
So much respect for our military.
Once your there you can’t leave
You would be surprised what you can do when you have no choice.
Once you get accustom to the screaming and yelling it’s not all that bad
@@nicolejones1579 His there? Or her there?
Same
My dad used to be a drill instructor before getting promoted. I was really little then. I remember him coming home with a raspy voice and a sore throat every night, but boy did he have stories to tell about the recruits.
There is no right answer with the calm drill instructor and I love it
June 27, 1973. I'll never forget it.
Ah yes the small talk, felt like a Quinten Tarantino movie everytime I had one of my DIs talk to me lmao
Qualities of a USMC DI: badassery and superhuman vocal cords. Respect from a Air Force brat.
Well not to be rude but just to say usually they use their chests to move the air. Otherwise it fucks up your voice yelling so you gotta like heave it from your chest ya know? But if you meant the damaged voices I think those are cool too.
@@serlistogiette4168 I get ya.
@Jacob tudor Actually, my Dad served in Air Force SOCOM. He loved it.
@Jacob tudor it’s fun as long as you don’t hate ur job
You can only imagine,you have to experience it! Semper Fi!
Brings back memories over 20 years ago. I was glad that I finally got a 300 PFT score on my final test. That final pull up was excruciating. As far as I know I was the only Marine to maintain a perfect score in my regiment.
13 weeks at Parris Island back in 1976 and yes it was Hell on earth, BUT I would do it all over again. Semper Fi
Not from usa but respect to our greatest ally 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧
Thank you for your service.
Kill kill
I’ve taken the leap, I swear in on Wed and ship in January. If you have any advice, I’d greatly appreciate it. Also I’m 28 so specifically, if your the old man in the group.
@@Darkknight0777 go air force or navy. If u go corps, pick an mos that'll best suit u for when u get out
Honestly, this video made me feel at home. Never thought I would say this, but I miss it, yes even boot camp. And I've been out for 4 years now.
Lol I get a little nostalgic sometimes to. Been out 2 years and some change. It’s the little funny shit that gives me flash back and makes me miss it ahaha. I’m just glad I went in during the time that I did, because you won’t get the “Boot Camp experience” anymore as it is changing over time - Mothers of America.
I've been out of the Marines for 44 years . . . and I miss it.
Been out 15 years and I miss it too
@@philipramsden4975 Almost longer than I’ve been alive…
@@philipramsden4975 bruh how? Shits literal nightmare fuel idk how the fuck all yall say you miss this hell.
Brought up some great memories from '05
HELL YEA MOTO!!!!! What y'all know bout that HOLLYWOOD!?!?! 2nd BN Echo Co Plt 2074!!!! 2004 was INSANE!!
7:56 "The senior drill instructor then proceeded to lose his mind" 😂😂😂bruh that shit would kill me trying to hold in my laughter.
the recruits against the wall are trying not to laugh too
I went to Air Force BMT four years ago which was no walk in the park, but compared to this… love all the service branches, but Marines truly be built different. Much respect.
wolf pack
Agreed! I went through BMT in 09. Our MTI said it would be the hardest thing we ever handled in life other than giving birth or dying😂😂well…I did both of those before I enlisted! Coming back to life after dying was harder!
Second to none 🦅
@@demarcogibbs1966LEAD THE WAYYY
310!! "Cause We HardCore Dammit"
well, this took me back...
(Especially at the end with that cadence)
8 weeks Starting July 10, 1969. These Drill Instructor's seem so nice, sweet and calm. Unlike the face slapping, gut punching, recruit tossing Drill Instructors we had. Semper Fi.
Is never good enough, this is what builds a killing machine.
In war when loading a mortar like 70 pounds full of gun powder about 15 to 20 of them per minute shit is crazy. You need to be sharp paying attention to detail and handle any stress situation even spit in your face, in war you will have either your blood your enemies or your friends you trying to save. Dude I want to be a drill Sargent but 1st I need to be a grunt. THEY NEED TO BE WAR READY.
The hardest part of recruit training is not laughing at the sheer wit of the Drill instructors. Either that or staying awake in classes.
Agreed 👍
Respect to all you good men. Lookin disciplined and dangerous!
God bless you guys and all military personnel.
That was awesome!!! I remember some of the "small talk" and being messed with while in line for something. Then you get thrashed immediately after. We put on a clean set of cammies for the platoon photo, then with into get the half-blues shot. Once we were done, into the pit!
One piece of advice that my brother got before he shipped off to boot camp from his recruit was to think of the DIs of this: The more they yell at you and give you a world of hell the more they want you to exceed in life. This type of discipline teaches you how to stay calm under pressure and to walk away from things. My brother used to be a quick fuse and would get defensive before he joined the marines. After wards he was a completely different person and more level headed. It changes you for the better!
Great, love it!
I was always grateful that i had gonr through basic and AIT training before i became a junior high school teacher.
