I spent 4 years in the army and I couldn't imagine having both army drill sergeants and marine corp drill instructors working you over at the same time.
We had a round of this when we graduated Navy boot camp. One recruit was so traumatized by our company commanders that he was terrified to break. He was an absolute stone for 10 solid minutes.
***** Btw, the ratio of likes to dislikes is in favor of the video. So I have no idea why you pointed that out. I'm not even subscribed to the guy and I can still see his description. You need to be nice to people.
Its amazing to see veterans doing idd and having a good time. Its good to see them doing a little something they did when they were younger and smiling
Knockout is a Drill game you play where basically, if you follow the wrong command or do anything you're not suppose to do, you're eliminated until there's one person left standing in the formation. Last person standing wins.
Jamee Smyth to be fair it’s not like the air force the spearhead of the military. They’re more of a support sector. Not that that’s a bad thing, but it’s the truth nonetheless
@@drats1279 I serve my country proudly and have worked alongside men and women who have done time as Drill Sgts. It is simply a joke that comes from having gone through the experience of basic training. So yeah they don't have souls until that campaign hat comes off.
I was drafted right out of high school in 1968. One of my drill sergeants was this great big black dude. He was scarier than the VC. But he could call cadence so cool. He turned out to be a great guy.
Oh man all U.S. Armed Forces veterans having a great time competing with another. Great to see all branches of service there having great time too. Thank you Drill Nation. Cpl. Cano Honorably Discharged Marine Corps Veteran
Former / Active DIs and Senior Enlisted had fun with this "Knock out" game, and were judges. A military version of "Simon Says," where the JROTC instructors (High School ROTC teachers) followed commands. If a Drill Instructor / Drill Sergeant / Flight Instructor / Sea Instructor got in front of you, and yelled at you until you flinched / smiled / winced, you lost, and had to leave formation.
This was awsome..... love to see our soldiers past and present know how to have a good fun time...... there should be more post thanking all our soldiers.....past and present for the hard work they did and still do.....
The DS at 3:06 is DS Solomon. That man can call cadence with the best of them. He was also known for "on your belly on your back on your feet" as he smoked you. I remember that man well.
+Tron “Original Name Here” Yvette Nationals are what you might call a tournament to see who follows orders correctly, well focused, and with discipline. The NYPD Explorers program also participates in Nationals but it's quite different. Instead of competing with others ( retired officers, etc.), you compete with other NYPD Explorer groups who also learn the same instructions as you did (Left-face, Right-face, About-face, Present/Order arms, etc.). The only REAL difference here is that it's not a game, it's an actual competetive event :^)
I love our Military. There are some very proud parents out there. To all the Vets who hold the Title, God Bless you for protecting our Country and GOD BLESS AMERICA..
+Mooney Mooney ~~~~~ said the guy, sitting on the dirty old sofa in the basement bedroom of his parents house. Punching away on his keyboard that's littered with Cheetos dust and dried up Mountain Dew. Spewing filth about a military establishment that wouldn't enlist him to take out the garbage or clean a latrine. By the way, those empty pizza boxes and Taco Bell wrappers are starting to attract ants... and that basement toilet that you use - the one your mother won't go near... is a pig sty. Get off your ass Mooney!
I served in my beloved corps from 79 to 02, and yes now that I am an old sob I do miss getting yelled at first thing in the morning because I know I am getting old!!!
They're veterans and they do these to see if they remember not to screw up no matter what. It's a fun thing for them. Veterans, although all the bullshit they go through, love the military.
Loved this! All the comments about somebody getting knocked out or whatever, I don't understand. This is our military having fun. Much respect to the vets and D.I.S who participated.
Why is everyone coming here expecting a fight? It's a game for Drilling. They test your knowledge on the basic commands or even advanced. As soon as you hear the command you have to do it depending on whose calling the command it might have to be perfect. You cannot be delayed with the commands either or else you will be out. Seems like this is military bearings too always fun. Enjoy your day and try not to take the titles seriously.
to those who dont understand, knockout is a game where everyone is at attention, the commander of the game calls commands, if you break your bearing in anyway, laughing, making wrong move etc, youre knocked out, ie You lose.
Thats a negative on your last there .... we dont smile .... whatever muscle contractions of the face observed have nothing in relation with civilian expressions of joyfulness and gleefull emotion.. much of it is in the formation of tactical vocalizations and in delivery of verbal commands aswell as muscle tension while in strenuous activity .. absolutely zero expressions of delight or in response to so called humour
The absolute best dig I ever saw. A DI going batshit "just for affect" chewing a troop out for what seemed like forever. When he was done he snarled at the troop who slowly turned his head squinted at the DI and said "I'm sorry SGT did you say something?" He was burnt toast, and he knew he was bested. It was all he could do not to burst out laughing.
Lmao me too.. but I guess it's just some kind of tournament or something to see if they can break the posture of these people during drill instructions..
It's a game we play in ROTC where you have to keep your bearing as much as possible while the drill instructors mess with you and you have to do all the phases correctly and should not make a face of any sort. It's fun.
At 2:35, I think that is my kill hat from PI '06. SSG Hudson! He caught me scratching my chin on the rifle range one time and made me rub my chin against a brick wall!
The title is not misleading. For those of you who don't know, Knockout is a game where if you fail to correctly perform the given command and you perform the command before it is executed, you are then taken out of the game. The commands that are usually called are mostly movement commands like right, FACE or about, FACE. Also, to those of you who think someone was going to get knocked out, you need to pay attention to title as it clearly says "Knockout" and not "Knock Out." Pay attention to the spacing.
It is hilarious reading the posts below saying this doesn't make sense or looking for a drill instructor to be knocked out. If you don't understand what this is you were never in the u.s. military. If you say you were and still don't know then you are lying. This is a game to see who can listen to orders given and ignore the yelling drill sergeants trying to break your bearing and attention to orders. Most young recruits can't do this well that is why they get yelled at so much (they aren't used to it). This game is fun for Drill Sergeants because it is against old vets who aren't scared because they have been thru all the games. The drill sergeants have to use other tricks to break the vets because yelling at them simply isn't enough. Thanks for the video this vet would love to play this old game again.
The like to dislike ratio just goes to show you how twisted in the head people can be. They would rather have someone succumb to physical pain than watching people have a little fun.
Its all bollocks anyway, recruiting children not old enough to vote or drink to kill and die in wars. Americans need to sort out its own human rights hypocrisies before fucking other peoples countries.
The legal voting age is 18, which is also the legal age for recruitment. So you're wrong there. Also, not everyone who is recruited gets deployed. You can do a full 4 years without ever seeing a bullet fly your way.
+harvestcanada buddy, the purpose of JROTC is not to "recruit children to kill", it's to promote young people to become better citizens. If you don't know the purpose then don't comment ignorance, and if those kids enjoy themselves in it they have the right to sign up for it themselves. Nobody forces anyone to join the military, and the youngest you could even enlist is 17 with BOTH parents approval, otherwise it's not legal. Next time do some research
harvestcanada, No one here forces any fucker to join, in most situations they actually try to talk you out of it, depending on branch of course. Going off of your comments I can tell your not from America, Canada maybe. I can also tell that you are very, liberal. First off I want to say that when it comes to political party, I am independent, I'm not to fond of Republicans either. Also telling someone else to do their research on the military of their own country, comes of incredibly, and I mean really fucking ignorant. People here join the military for 3 reasons, 1. They have older family members who had served in the past, bottom line they are out to either prove themselves or make somebody proud 2, the most common. They need more education to advance their career, keep in mind most applicants are broke high school graduates, the military offers a job, food, housing and the g.i bill, where the federal government pays for 3/4ths of your schooling 3. They simply want something to do, other than nothing The JROTC, or Junior Recruit Officer Training Canidate is a program every branch of the military offers, as kids here in America irregardless of how bad your perception of America is, do actually give two shits about their future, you know being as our military is an all VOLUNTEER military, that's right no one here is forced, or brainwashed. What it does is allows, not kids but young adults who do intend to serve for either 4 to 6 years, a boost if you will. They still remain in school but they are taught to do drills, not combat, but simple exercises, the difference in rank and marching drills. It makes basic military training simpler to understand and typically people who go through it find it easier to become officers down the road and get to graduate at a higher rank. Also going by your comment I can't help but get the feeling that you are either anti american, or think that we are all incredibly warlike. I want you to know that as an American I can promise you that our foreign policy and our leaders, are a horrendous representation of us as a people. And if you base the fact that we voted these people in, you should know right now that money, really does make the world go round'. Yes racsism still persists in our country, keep in mind it's s 2017, no longer the 1950's, feminists here seem to forget that as well, I'm not anti female equality, I'm just anti female nazi. Also every state has its own laws and in truth it's own micro culture. Not everybody here supports every fucking war. the Vietnam War was very protested against, that was our leaders not us. Most people that fought it, were drafted, or forced if you will. That is what basically changed the US policy to what it is today. I actually find it appalling that you think we force our children to do this, it actually quite offensive. Let me ask you this. Do you treat the veterans of your country like dog shit for going over to the middle eastern area and killing people, specifically ISIS, you know the mysogninistic group that really does force it's children to fight, the same people who went to Paris and shot the place up, or should we take in account the hundreds of bombings and massacres they are responsible for. Did your country force any of them to fight, did they feel that they had no other option but to join their military. Yes there are shootings and bombings here in America as well. Note, that some are acts of terror and others are people with a mental disorder. I am not afraid to admit it, I like gun's, but I don't like shootings, I actually agree with mental testing, but not everytime I go to buy some ammunition. Our country is split in half politically, republicans and democrats, yes we have democracy, but keep in mind what I said about the states. For any amendment to pass 2/3rds of our congress, or states if you will, have to agree on that. that's 2/3rds of 64 million people, that isn't done over night, everything takes time. As an outlander I won't and couldn't expect you for a second to know the ins and out of our military. To be honest most people here don't know the ins and out of our own military. But what you did was essentially tell someone here in this country that they don't know shit about it, as if evident you don't either, before you spread another message of anti American, anti military hate, keep in mind your not the only person to metaphorically stomp on the American flag. I'll bet you don't like the fact that we are always impeding on foreign issues. With that logic, would it of been better if we simply left Europe and Africa to the nazis, or just of left Germany to, at the time soviet Russia. Perhaps we should of left Cuba alone when soviet Russia were bringing warheads over to ceastro and aiming them at us. Let me leave you with this, the United States at its core is a very proud people of many different colors, religons and cultures. We don't agree on much and we arnt nessicerily known for our intelect or our eating habits. But we love the fact that we can say what we want, when we want, we are free to worship who we want when we want, we can purchase a gun to hunt, or defend our selves, and our government has a have an actual reason for trying to do away with us, gay marriage was just legalized and the right to smoke pot is coming around, slowly but surely. we figure that since we can do all of that, and we enjoy it, why can't the rest of the world get to do it. Now when some asshole in North Korea wants to treat his people like crap, being the humanitarians we are at heart. We want to stop him, but if he shoots at us because he wants to continue to treat his people like dog shit. It stands to reason that we would then try to give those people those freedoms by way of force, and removing him from power. That is a war, and all American wars at heart. But he says he has nukes, while many of us feel he's full of shit, we can't take a nuclear threat for granted, we should know, we've used a few. Beleive me most of us are not proud of that fact. At the moment we help safeguard south Korea from being invaded as the north Korean military is rather large dispite north koreas disminigitive size. I would hope that you don't beleive all that "war for oil" crap, the people that spewed it, weren't there and didn't go. Here are a few very recent fact about our military, you can now be homosexual, they cannot mistreat you for it As of 2017 as a matter of fact, if your religon requires a beard and turban, you can have it In basic military training, they have a stress card, if your too stressed out you can pull it and the instructors will back off a little bit, also the cannot hit you or really even cuss at you Our military isn't evil and we don't want to be, we in truth want to stop evil and free the earth, not control it, but really protect all people's on a global level. You may not agree with our way of going about things but you must realize that those that have made themselve our enemies, really don't care what protesters think and would happily gun them down if they could, we want you to be able to protest. You may not like the way we go about it, but if that's the only option, so be it.

I was worried for a second since these are older fellas. Then I realized, this is how they started they're adult life, in the corps. And it's just for fun. This is a great video, and a bit of fun and a reminder of their beginning days for these guys.
Yes Marine Drill Instructors are very very loud. Thanks to Ssgt Stewart Ssgt Johnigon Sgt Valentine and Sgt Guest, Plt 395, India Co 3rd Bn Parris Island Oct-Dec 1973.
Sergeant, but yeah. I wonder if it's because Army calls +E5 Sergeant up to a certain rank and Marines call ranks as their ranks. Speculating on the Army part.
Just to inform everyone, the title is accurate and not for clickbait. Knockout is a military game where you do the commands given without messing up. If you mess up youre out. In this particular game of Knockout, ROTC instructors participate.
+Jordan Ward The video is about a knockout drill, where the participants are given commands to follow and anyone who fails to react properly to them, gets knocked out (disqualified)
the title isnt misleading and noones getting knocked out its just knockout drills you have to do drills with other people and if you mess up your out or knocked out they call it I know this because I was in ROTC
I was in Basic Training back in 74 my Drill Instructors were in Nam & they did their job! After a few weeks they became more like Mentors unless you were a screw up then you got their wrath! Good times!
I also thought an instructor was getting knocked out! But it's an Drill instructor knockout competition! Here in the UK we don't have this stuff. But it looks great fun, and a really good way to get us old veterans involved for a day of fun and memories.
8088675309 , I only quoted Henry Kissinger. And for the record, I never watch the idiot box, nor do you have a clue who you are speaking to. But, at least, by projecting, I know what you are....so, you love the idea of a militarized police state. Foolish. VERY foolish.

Former / Active DIs and Senior Enlisted had fun with this "Knock out" game, and were judges. A military version of "Simon Says," where the JROTC instructors (High School ROTC teachers) followed commands. If a Drill Instructor / Drill Sergeant / Flight Instructor / Sea Instructor got in front of you, and yelled at you until you flinched / smiled / winced, you lost, and had to leave formation.
This was awsome..... love to see our soldiers past and present know how to have a good fun time...... there should be more post thanking all our soldiers.....past and present for the hard work they did and still do.....
Man this video brought a smile to my face. If you went through bootcamp you know exactly what I mean.
The DS at 3:06 is DS Solomon. That man can call cadence with the best of them. He was also known for "on your belly on your back on your feet" as he smoked you. I remember that man well.
Brian Snell ... Ohhhhh, "Front-Back-Go's!" I remember those. 🙄

Instead of competing with others ( retired officers, etc.), you compete with other NYPD Explorer groups who also learn the same instructions as you did (Left-face, Right-face, About-face, Present/Order arms, etc.). The only REAL difference here is that it's not a game, it's an actual competetive event :^)
I love our Military. There are some very proud parents out there. To all the Vets who hold the Title, God Bless you for protecting our Country and GOD BLESS AMERICA..
From the title I thought I was going to see a Drill Instructor knocked out. Even though I didn't I was presently surprised by the video.
same
+Dean Winchester Presently/pleasantly. Meh.
***** Yeah that autocorrect is a bitch when you hit a wrong letter
+Mooney Mooney ~~~~~ said the guy, sitting on the dirty old sofa in the basement bedroom of his parents house. Punching away on his keyboard that's littered with Cheetos dust and dried up Mountain Dew. Spewing filth about a military establishment that wouldn't enlist him to take out the garbage or clean a latrine. By the way, those empty pizza boxes and Taco Bell wrappers are starting to attract ants... and that basement toilet that you use - the one your mother won't go near... is a pig sty. Get off your ass Mooney!
good guys..
that C.P.O. was looking shipshape
Man, that last guy was a statue until the very end lol.
I served in my beloved corps from 79 to 02, and yes now that I am an old sob I do miss getting yelled at first thing in the morning because I know I am getting old!!!
retired since two years and I'm not missing it. well, at least not now! Semper Fi
2:45-3:45 now that's military bearing. he was eliminated, but u keeping it that long while 4 people try to mees u up, is really impressive
Kedar Martinez I’m 15 and I’ve been screamed at and touched even though we aren’t supposed to be touched
They're veterans and they do these to see if they remember not to screw up no matter what. It's a fun thing for them. Veterans, although all the bullshit they go through, love the military.
Man... they’re just straight bullying the man at the end. That shaving part killed me. “Oh he’s shaving. He’s just using the back part of the razor” 😂
Loved this! All the comments about somebody getting knocked out or whatever, I don't understand. This is our military having fun. Much respect to the vets and D.I.S who participated.
Why is everyone coming here expecting a fight? It's a game for Drilling. They test your knowledge on the basic commands or even advanced. As soon as you hear the command you have to do it depending on whose calling the command it might have to be perfect. You cannot be delayed with the commands either or else you will be out. Seems like this is military bearings too always fun. Enjoy your day and try not to take the titles seriously.
Exactly, people are so twisted in the head that they would rather see someone succumb to physical pain than have a little fun. It's sad.
twisted in the head? wtf do you expect people to think according to this title? mb your brain is twisted.
Jezuzss You inadvertently made my point for me.
I see thanks
*ment as a compliment
Its funny knowing what the game Knockout is, and people dislike the video because they think there's gonna be a fight.
What is it exactly?
Thanks! I really had no idea what was happening..
@@TheS1E2A3L4 a knockout game by keeping your composer and doing whatever is called on the speeker
2:50 I thought they were talking about his stomach
"Oh he used the back of the razor" xD
There's a cover on there you're supposed to take it off
to those who dont understand, knockout is a game where everyone is at attention, the commander of the game calls commands, if you break your bearing in anyway, laughing, making wrong move etc, youre knocked out, ie You lose.
I couldn't ever be a participant, They are to funny, why is this not a channel. We all need to laugh and they worked clean.
Is it just me or do when the Drill Instructors 'smile' their faces stretch and twist in ways normal faces that smile everyday do not!? O_O
Michelle Johnson it is the result of living in "The Collective."
Id win this, just sayin' !
Thats a negative on your last there .... we dont smile .... whatever muscle contractions of the face observed have nothing in relation with civilian expressions of joyfulness and gleefull emotion.. much of it is in the formation of tactical vocalizations and in delivery of verbal commands aswell as muscle tension while in strenuous activity .. absolutely zero expressions of delight or in response to so called humour
sonia de la paz what do you mean “we.” You aren’t no drill instructor
@@stone65037 was a Hat before you hit puberty
The absolute best dig I ever saw. A DI going batshit "just for affect" chewing a troop out for what seemed like forever. When he was done he snarled at the troop who slowly turned his head squinted at the DI and said "I'm sorry SGT did you say something?" He was burnt toast, and he knew he was bested. It was all he could do not to burst out laughing.
What the hec.....I thought somebody was going to get knocked out
You completely wasted 4:01 of your life.
Gregory Vetter lol
Gregory Vetter you saved me 3:30 of mine :P
Lmao me too.. but I guess it's just some kind of tournament or something to see if they can break the posture of these people during drill instructions..
It's a game we play in ROTC where you have to keep your bearing as much as possible while the drill instructors mess with you and you have to do all the phases correctly and should not make a face of any sort. It's fun.
That was cool as hell. That belt situation was hilarious......lol
I probably could have done this fresh off the island, but not now lol! Some of the stuff that can come out a DI's mouth is absolutely hilarious 😂😂
To all my fellow countrymen and women who served in the armed forces I'm just saying thank you for your services
Guessing im not the only one that came here to see a drill instructor get knocked out?
i watched it several times. still nothing
Yay I found this video again! I remember my favorite part, "Is that a belt, Sir??" 😂
Someone get this soldier a medal!
This brings back memories. I loved doing knockout when I was in ROTC
At 2:35, I think that is my kill hat from PI '06. SSG Hudson! He caught me scratching my chin on the rifle range one time and made me rub my chin against a brick wall!
Yup! That’s HIM!!!! 2nd BN Golf Company when I was there
The title is not misleading. For those of you who don't know, Knockout is a game where if you fail to correctly perform the given command and you perform the command before it is executed, you are then taken out of the game. The commands that are usually called are mostly movement commands like right, FACE or about, FACE. Also, to those of you who think someone was going to get knocked out, you need to pay attention to title as it clearly says "Knockout" and not "Knock Out." Pay attention to the spacing.
Since when did DMX become a Drill Instructor?
Lol 😁😂😀
It is hilarious reading the posts below saying this doesn't make sense or looking for a drill instructor to be knocked out. If you don't understand what this is you were never in the u.s. military. If you say you were and still don't know then you are lying. This is a game to see who can listen to orders given and ignore the yelling drill sergeants trying to break your bearing and attention to orders. Most young recruits can't do this well that is why they get yelled at so much (they aren't used to it). This game is fun for Drill Sergeants because it is against old vets who aren't scared because they have been thru all the games. The drill sergeants have to use other tricks to break the vets because yelling at them simply isn't enough. Thanks for the video this vet would love to play this old game again.
The like to dislike ratio just goes to show you how twisted in the head people can be. They would rather have someone succumb to physical pain than watching people have a little fun.
Its all bollocks anyway, recruiting children not old enough to vote or drink to kill and die in wars. Americans need to sort out its own human rights hypocrisies before fucking other peoples countries.
The legal voting age is 18, which is also the legal age for recruitment. So you're wrong there. Also, not everyone who is recruited gets deployed. You can do a full 4 years without ever seeing a bullet fly your way.
+harvestcanada buddy, the purpose of JROTC is not to "recruit children to kill", it's to promote young people to become better citizens. If you don't know the purpose then don't comment ignorance, and if those kids enjoy themselves in it they have the right to sign up for it themselves. Nobody forces anyone to join the military, and the youngest you could even enlist is 17 with BOTH parents approval, otherwise it's not legal. Next time do some research
harvestcanada, No one here forces any fucker to join, in most situations they actually try to talk you out of it, depending on branch of course. Going off of your comments I can tell your not from America, Canada maybe. I can also tell that you are very, liberal. First off I want to say that when it comes to political party, I am independent, I'm not to fond of Republicans either. Also telling someone else to do their research on the military of their own country, comes of incredibly, and I mean really fucking ignorant. People here join the military for 3 reasons,
1. They have older family members who had served in the past, bottom line they are out to either prove themselves or make somebody proud
2, the most common. They need more education to advance their career, keep in mind most applicants are broke high school graduates, the military offers a job, food, housing and the g.i bill, where the federal government pays for 3/4ths of your schooling
3. They simply want something to do, other than nothing
The JROTC, or Junior Recruit Officer Training Canidate is a program every branch of the military offers, as kids here in America irregardless of how bad your perception of America is, do actually give two shits about their future, you know being as our military is an all VOLUNTEER military, that's right no one here is forced, or brainwashed. What it does is allows, not kids but young adults who do intend to serve for either 4 to 6 years, a boost if you will. They still remain in school but they are taught to do drills, not combat, but simple exercises, the difference in rank and marching drills. It makes basic military training simpler to understand and typically people who go through it find it easier to become officers down the road and get to graduate at a higher rank.
Also going by your comment I can't help but get the feeling that you are either anti american, or think that we are all incredibly warlike. I want you to know that as an American I can promise you that our foreign policy and our leaders, are a horrendous representation of us as a people. And if you base the fact that we voted these people in, you should know right now that money, really does make the world go round'.
Yes racsism still persists in our country, keep in mind it's s 2017, no longer the 1950's, feminists here seem to forget that as well, I'm not anti female equality, I'm just anti female nazi. Also every state has its own laws and in truth it's own micro culture. Not everybody here supports every fucking war. the Vietnam War was very protested against, that was our leaders not us. Most people that fought it, were drafted, or forced if you will. That is what basically changed the US policy to what it is today.
I actually find it appalling that you think we force our children to do this, it actually quite offensive. Let me ask you this. Do you treat the veterans of your country like dog shit for going over to the middle eastern area and killing people, specifically ISIS, you know the mysogninistic group that really does force it's children to fight, the same people who went to Paris and shot the place up, or should we take in account the hundreds of bombings and massacres they are responsible for. Did your country force any of them to fight, did they feel that they had no other option but to join their military.
Yes there are shootings and bombings here in America as well. Note, that some are acts of terror and others are people with a mental disorder. I am not afraid to admit it, I like gun's, but I don't like shootings, I actually agree with mental testing, but not everytime I go to buy some ammunition. Our country is split in half politically, republicans and democrats, yes we have democracy, but keep in mind what I said about the states. For any amendment to pass 2/3rds of our congress, or states if you will, have to agree on that. that's 2/3rds of 64 million people, that isn't done over night, everything takes time.
As an outlander I won't and couldn't expect you for a second to know the ins and out of our military. To be honest most people here don't know the ins and out of our own military. But what you did was essentially tell someone here in this country that they don't know shit about it, as if evident you don't either, before you spread another message of anti American, anti military hate, keep in mind your not the only person to metaphorically stomp on the American flag. I'll bet you don't like the fact that we are always impeding on foreign issues. With that logic, would it of been better if we simply left Europe and Africa to the nazis, or just of left Germany to, at the time soviet Russia. Perhaps we should of left Cuba alone when soviet Russia were bringing warheads over to ceastro and aiming them at us.
Let me leave you with this, the United States at its core is a very proud people of many different colors, religons and cultures. We don't agree on much and we arnt nessicerily known for our intelect or our eating habits. But we love the fact that we can say what we want, when we want, we are free to worship who we want when we want, we can purchase a gun to hunt, or defend our selves, and our government has a have an actual reason for trying to do away with us, gay marriage was just legalized and the right to smoke pot is coming around, slowly but surely. we figure that since we can do all of that, and we enjoy it, why can't the rest of the world get to do it. Now when some asshole in North Korea wants to treat his people like crap, being the humanitarians we are at heart. We want to stop him, but if he shoots at us because he wants to continue to treat his people like dog shit. It stands to reason that we would then try to give those people those freedoms by way of force, and removing him from power. That is a war, and all American wars at heart. But he says he has nukes, while many of us feel he's full of shit, we can't take a nuclear threat for granted, we should know, we've used a few. Beleive me most of us are not proud of that fact. At the moment we help safeguard south Korea from being invaded as the north Korean military is rather large dispite north koreas disminigitive size.
I would hope that you don't beleive all that "war for oil" crap, the people that spewed it, weren't there and didn't go.
Here are a few very recent fact about our military,
you can now be homosexual, they cannot mistreat you for it
As of 2017 as a matter of fact, if your religon requires a beard and turban, you can have it
In basic military training, they have a stress card, if your too stressed out you can pull it and the instructors will back off a little bit, also the cannot hit you or really even cuss at you
Our military isn't evil and we don't want to be, we in truth want to stop evil and free the earth, not control it, but really protect all people's on a global level. You may not agree with our way of going about things but you must realize that those that have made themselve our enemies, really don't care what protesters think and would happily gun them down if they could, we want you to be able to protest. You may not like the way we go about it, but if that's the only option, so be it.

I was waiting for someone to get knocked out! Shit 💩
freshly Baked I was in mcjrotc and we played knockout it was like Simon says with drill commands
same
3:40 "man said about face and he still standing there" 😂
I was worried for a second since these are older fellas. Then I realized, this is how they started they're adult life, in the corps. And it's just for fun. This is a great video, and a bit of fun and a reminder of their beginning days for these guys.
"Were you a chow runner" lmfao
That Marine at 1:43 looks an awful lot like my old Master Guns. Best NCO I was ever under.
this is awesome hahahaha. to be fair though, it's been a while since most of the guys trying to stand there have been in basic
I seriously thought someone was gonna get knocked out because of the title of the vid
That was fun to watch. Served in the army. But I gotta admit. Marine DIs have the most intimidating and most powerful command voice. Lol.
Yes Marine Drill Instructors are very very loud. Thanks to Ssgt Stewart Ssgt Johnigon Sgt Valentine and Sgt Guest, Plt 395, India Co 3rd Bn Parris Island Oct-Dec 1973.
Thats why US is the greatest country on earth because of the people that make it so.
I can't take that Navy Petty Officer serious.
#1 Drill Instructors cant be "knocked out" they inspire almost chuck norris fear in those that dare to oppose them.
#2. Great video.
Adult Simon Says....we did this shot in military school...it was fun AF
When you become a drill sargent do you get a book of sick burns to remember?
No, to get appointed as drill sargent you have to make those sick fifth degree burns
Fourth degree burns even the bone, fifth burns even the soul
The guy on the loud speaker, "......fannie packs are not allowed". lmao that part cracks me up
Aww... that Marine DI only has his "Sharp Shooter" badge...
He was a POG
in rotc this is pretty fun but challenging
Thank you for your service
It would be terrifying to be surrounded by Drill Instructors from every branch and to be yelled at by them
What are THOOSE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
U. S ARMY DRILL " SARGENT" & A U. S. MARINE DRILL " INSTRUCTOR"
Sergeant, but yeah. I wonder if it's because Army calls +E5 Sergeant up to a certain rank and Marines call ranks as their ranks. Speculating on the Army part.
Just to inform everyone, the title is accurate and not for clickbait. Knockout is a military game where you do the commands given without messing up. If you mess up youre out. In this particular game of Knockout, ROTC instructors participate.
Puts a tear in my eye. Proud of these black men who are role models. So nice seeing this instead of BLM looting Targets. Respect ✊
0:44 good to see grams elbows still work 🤗
Marine drill instructors are stand up comedians, I wouldn’t last three seconds before I crack up laughing!!!!!
This was damn wholesome.
Obviously everyone who disliked never served. This reminds me of basic
+Victor Money or the people who disliked found the title misleading.
It reminded me of training subs. Do you all like to be dominated and have every aspect of your life controlled?
Thank you for being awesome
At what time in the video does the instructor get knocked out?
Instructor doesn't get knocked out they only put that in the title so people will watch it nothing but trolls on here
It's the name of the game.
True true
+Jordan Ward The video is about a knockout drill, where the participants are given commands to follow and anyone who fails to react properly to them, gets knocked out (disqualified)
I thought the last guy did an awesome job keeping composure. I wonder if he'd been through basic training, knew what he was getting himself into....
Can a firm as I’m that guy
@@davidgrahamscott no
Instructor, Sergeants, what ever you had called them; We all know that they are the funniest comedians y’all can never laugh at
the title isnt misleading and noones getting knocked out its just knockout drills you have to do drills with other people and if you mess up your out or knocked out they call it I know this because I was in ROTC
+AKA JKazma rotc kids thinking they were in the military
+flight2k5 I know its annoying that little ROTC kids think they were legit in the military
You went into ROTC because Girl Scouts was too rough, I'll bet.
Theirs no knockout it's a game were drill instructors have to try to break the veterans
And the game is called knockout
Rocky Sparks the moron thought someone was gonna get knocked out...
Black knight1000 I can tell
I did to
lol what a knob...hahaa you really thought someone was gonna get knocked out? smh, go back to fenoly fights lol
I was in Basic Training back in 74 my Drill Instructors were in Nam & they did their job! After a few weeks they became more like Mentors unless you were a screw up then you got their wrath! Good times!
Damn...that Marine came at his life with the belt and phanny pack (?).
Your daddy the Navy did the same thing.
😂
"THAT IS DIIIIIIISGUSTING!"
I also thought an instructor was getting knocked out! But it's an Drill instructor knockout competition! Here in the UK we don't have this stuff. But it looks great fun, and a really good way to get us old veterans involved for a day of fun and memories.
Why’s it only army and marine were scary Air Force and navy I wanted to laugh at😂
I was in the army but I've seen some Navy instructors go to work they did the same as our drill sergeants
2:20 This dudes voice is just like D1 swear to god lmao watchu doing in the military while Being a Caster for Smash lmao
This is hilarious! I had no idea this existed. Very cool. (Salute emoji here)
Click bait.. you're the reason I have trust issues DrillNATION.
John Smith your dumb,look up military drill movements and knock out drill and then you'll find this video isn't click bait.#exposed
Foreign Legionnaires Rule.
These are the nicest Drill Instructors _I'VE_ ever encountered.
I'm so proud those men are on our side. Makes me tear up. Wonderful real men. Oh, that I would be half. jk
2:43
This was so funny
LMFAO
You can't scare a veteran with just a few loud yells
The military. Tools for war and making money for those who make the wars.
jealous? left out? try eating a whole bottle of sleeping pills. it will help.
aggressivedemonizer you are the one who is already asleep, and as you pointed out quite ironically, I am awake.
8088675309 , I only quoted Henry Kissinger. And for the record, I never watch the idiot box, nor do you have a clue who you are speaking to. But, at least, by projecting, I know what you are....so, you love the idea of a militarized police state. Foolish. VERY foolish.
damn, you're an idiot too....
you have something intelligent to say, or do you always speak out your ass?
