Beautiful. Statues of Discipline. When drill is in perfect sync like that, it's a thing of beauty. I struggled a little with it , but I didn't mean I couldn't appreciate it from the outside.
wasn't even my drill instructor but I loved his cadences everytime we all went to chow, RAH SGT, Its LCPL Taveras, tall dominican PLT 1049, SDI SSGT Estrada
Alignment is on point. Good shit. Not easy to get 60-80 high school graduates on the same page like this within 3 months, along with rifle range, knowledge, customs & courtesies, physical training and overall ATTENTION TO DETAIL.
Yes, it is amazing how this intense training can transform someone within three months. I was there in early 73' and it's on my bucket list to pay a visit to "PI, the land that God forgot."
Although I did my recruit training at MCRD Parris Island during the summer of '66, I eventually became a Drill Instructor at MCRD San Diego in 1972 and served there until 1975. My greatest tour of duty - the one I enjoyed the most during my 26 years of active service - was being a USMC Drill Instructor in the 3rd Battalion at MCRD San Diego. To this date, just thinking about those times, it brings a smile to my face. Heck, I was single in my 20's, had a body of "twisted steel and sex appeal," and knew how to use various swear words as nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, and what else have you - I mastered them all!!!!! Haaaaaaa...
@@DERKONIG12345 OMG - there are so many cadences out there, where to even begin, but OK - here is one at least. Remember, I was a Drill Instructor 50 years ago, so many cadences have been forgotten - but this one somehow stuck out in my mind. "Ah knew a girl in New York City - she had beer in both her titties....." I do remember one little item that I used to have my recruits say every night before lights out - here goes: "Every day in the Marine Corps is like Sunday on a farm, every meal is like a banquet. Over 200 years (then) of hell, death, and destruction - Marine Corps!!! Marines can stick more in and break more off than any other man, from any other land - and what's nicer is that we can do it neater and sweeter with less peter Amen..." They always loved that!!!
I was in 3rd Battalion I co. In Nov 75 staff sgt Laura, Daugherty were the two DI's I can remember still today! ( They may have been Sgts at that time?? )
Here are some. I remember as a recruit, , ," I know a lady who lives on a hill she won't do it but her sister will. Then there's the one about " mama and papa were laying in bed, mama rolled over and this is what she said,,p.t mmgood. Feels good etc, or. "I don't know but I've been told Eskimo $&##@@ is mighty cold and that's the few that I can remember 😊
I swear, if I’m ever in a coma, let me listen to this platoon with their DI drilling. I’ll wake up I assure you. I sometimes miss the island crazy as it sounds. Semper Fi.
Been there done that. 2nd Battalion, Fox Company, MCRD P.I. 1967. Our SDI Johnson got his jollies, when all 80 plus of us, were able to slap our M-14's rifle stocks at the very same micro-second. If we did, the electrical lines above us on the telephone poles would make a "zinging" sound. Watching that platoon, it brought a smile to my face, knowing I once marched that well !!!
I still remember my drill instructors 40 years after boot camp. Truly the greatest mentors I have had the privilege to learn from. Very proud of all of them.
Outstanding Cpl. Ronald Patrick Curran Jr. 3Rd Force RECON Ranger. Disabled veteran. I've been checking this platoon out. Awesome 👍 great job Platoon and Drill Instructor
Some good memories from this very spot. Delta Company 1074 June 29 1999. Served 12 years was in Nasiryah, Second Battle of Fallujah, Haditha, Helmand Province Garmsir District. Had no idea the path I started when I stepped on those yellow foot prints, lost alot brothers on my journey, but wouldn't change my journey if I could. Semper Fi Tuefel Hundens
@@Mbenguegangalready have! Brother you sent tingles down my dag gone spine! Semper Fi! I have a favor to ask if a fellow Marine. I’ll be starting the fire fighter academy next month and I’ve forgotten so many of these cadences. I’d like to pick up a few to use. I love this one but can’t make out all the ditty responses the recruits are responding back. Can you share some knowledge?
@@pablosanmiguel5802Every platoon has different ditty’s, so it’s hard to say, but it’s mostly just counting and aye sir. You also don’t say anything after like phase 2. The ditties just help you remember what you’re supposed to do.
@@obsidianprime2959 I get that he should've had it secured but it's definitely better than dropping a rifle! Knew a dude who dropped one and I thought we were gonna get platoon IT'd 😂 The sound it made made everyone visibly flinch haha. Poor dude quickly picked it up and was yanked out of formation to get slayed in a nearby sand pit by the Edson range barracks in Pendleton lmao. Homeboy had a death grip on that rifle afterwards too lol
Platoon 1006 Delta Company Oct 91 -Jan 92 P I We lived on the grinder. It was right outside our barracks. This platoon is awesome. Great memories. Semper Fi
Greatest memories of my life. This is where you transition from boy to man defining moment into manhood that every young man needs. This does a lot for us as a character builder I was always taught the right stuff.
Been 20 years since I stepped on the yellow foot prints. Cadence and drill is STILL music to my ears.🔥 I imagine it always will. The rhythm and precision has been burned into the DNA.
At MCRD Platoon 1009 April 73 never forgot what it was like to go from first phase to the third phase trained & qualified with M14s most exciting three months of my life. I never saw action but still pretty exciting to be a part of the finest, “Good night Chesty Puller wherever you are”
Reminds of the daily grind on the grinder and marching all the roads at MCRD SD back in the '80s....and pit calls as punishment. It seemed like a blur, even while I was there. COD every damned day. And being cussed out all too often for acting like we were all "at home on the block". And finally after months of this, we became a machine. Our platoon took the COD competition and everything else at the end of boot camp. I don't know if there was ever a moment like that one when I felt that much pride. It was really incredible that a bunch of young men (age 17 to 27) from all different backgrounds were turned into Marines. We were a snap-to bunch, and it felt good to be able to march with this kind of competence. About once every ten years or so, I have a dream (nightmare) that I am in boot camps all over again. Talk about waking up in a sweat.
Very proud of the United States Marines! Marines have the best cadence! I never had a chance to visit Parris Island! I got to visit Camp Pendleton years ago! I remember waking up early to hear the cadence! Thank you United States Marines!
Do you think you’d have what it takes to be a United States Marine??? A lot of people who think they do, show up, to only to be washed out. The Marines’ Boot Camp and path to earning the EGA is not a vacation like the other branches.
The willies all day long. Hell yes Marines!! My twenty-two years in the Corps wasn’t long enough. My body can’t handle the trashing it took at Parris Island again, but I can still travel back there in my memories. I still love watching drill and hearing the rhythm cadences of a motivated Drill Instructor. That is heaven on earth.
We didn't chant out on those warm days of summer San Diego of 1982 but that thunder of recruit heels 6 to front 3 to rear have never stopped ringing in my ears (leather boots then buffed day and nights) AND WHO THE H DROPPED THAT CANTEEN ⁉️ ⁉️⁉️...ONCE AND ALWAYS‼️ 👊😎👍🇺🇸
My son is in MCRD San Diego as we speak. In phase 2 week 3. I have been watching this video over and over. Great job to you recruits but huge shot out to the DI.. such precision in the executions and your cadence is on point
A shout out to you and your son. It has been 4 years since my grandson was at MCRDSD. Everything he enlisted for has been granted due to his achievements. He completed his high tech aviation logistics M.O.S. and has received the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal. He will soon be promoted to Sergeant. We are so proud of him. I am sure your son will do great and become a greater person by being a Marine.
Hit 1:00 and PAUSE. To all non Marines wondering how Marine recruits learn to drill so well. Look at the top left hand corner of your screen at what looks like a volleyball court with no net. That’s how.
They follow the cadence of the drill instructor. He’s actually saying commands but in an exaggerated sing song way. He’s saying Left Right Left but exaggerated
I had Senior Drill Instructor Sgt. Gibson, 1092, Charlie Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion at MCRD: PI, seeing the place again is a beautiful sight, seeing that it being a green flag tells me that this day must have been great for many, but also oh-so very terrible. I got Med boarded a couple years back and have memory issues now, but I can remember some of the ditties we had, and I love the Discipline they have! Semper Fi!
I remember those days 1965, MCRD/SD so proud on graduation day marching on the parade grounds (grinder). Had great DI’s can still hear his cadence to this day. May sound weird but sometimes when I take my evening walks I sound his cadence in my head. SEMPER FI
While at Marine Barracks Hawaii, Barber's Point NAS, frequently the command would take all us Marines not on guard duty and at sunup march us around all the Navy Barracks. Cadence and march songs as loud as we could to let the Navy know we Marines are here. My favorite - " GI Beans and GI Gravy, Gee I wished I joined the Navy." Short pause then - "Bullshit !!! - Bullshit !!!!". Got lots of complaints that we were waking the squids up, too bad.
Bad ass. The pride of the most lethal force in the world. You boys should be proud to have acomplished teamwork, strength and discipline. America is proud of you all.
Nah we got canteen belts held together by safety pins and hopes. The Di’s knew those things were absolutely trash and never got bad at us for having shity equipment. Hed get smoked fs if he had broke formation to pick it up tho.
Those recruits looked absolutely sharp. I liked my time in the Army I wanted to serve with my stepfather, but I should've went with my gut and joined the Marines.
The rifle is the guides, either the DI will carry it or another recruit will. It appears to be range week as well judging by their mag pouches on their belts. I’d be more concerned for the guy who dropped his canteen. They are marked with your name on it. He will pay for making the DI go get it, that sand pit looks like a good spot
The 1st Recruit Training Battalion Scarlet And Gold were always HiGH Steppers when they Marched during Close Order Drill. At MCRD San Diego, CA in January, 1983; I trained with the 3rd Recruit Training Battalion Sweet Blue and White Kilo Company Platoon 3008 we were marching heading North on the Starboard side and a Platoon from the 1st R.T.B. was marching South on the Port Side on the road They were evidently in the Third Phased of Training-M16A1s at the Right Shouldered Arms, Cammie Trousers Bloused and Their Black Cadillac Combat Boots Heels hitting the Deck with the Snap and Pop Sound as they were HIGH Stepping Leaning Back and Struting. My Platoon was totally Intimidated and Humbled by their Marching. They Drowned us out so badly that our Senior Drill Instructor SDI Gunnery Sergeant GYSGT Gerald A Gordon ordered us to Mobbed it back to our Barracks and told us they Wimped us out and we Better be able to March like that when our Close Order Drill Proficiency Training started with one of our Drill Instructors Staff Sergeant SSGT Keith Bland. Needless to say at Second Phase of our Marine Recruit Training we were allowed to bloused our Cammie Trousers for the C.O.D. Marching Test and Staff Sergeant SSGT Bland's Cadence was the Main one out of our 4 Drill Instructors that I adopted for Marching when i got to my First Duty Station at Marine Barracks MB GUAM Marianas Islands M.I.
I was on the yellow footprints, Parris Island 31 December, 1975. Later in the receiving barracks I watched a platoon marching by. I turned to another recruit and said - "I think theyre gonna teach us a new language".
Is this second phase when they have the ammo pouches on their war belts that’s how you know you’re getting close to the end at least that’s what we were told at the main chow hall near the auditorium classroom by those recruits.
I am a proud Army veteran. Watching these Marines also fills me with pride.🇺🇲
Good man

At MCRD San Diego, CA in January, 1983; I trained with the 3rd Recruit Training Battalion Sweet Blue and White Kilo Company Platoon 3008 we were marching heading North on the Starboard side and a Platoon from the 1st R.T.B. was marching South on the Port Side on the road They were evidently in the Third Phased of Training-M16A1s at the Right Shouldered Arms, Cammie Trousers Bloused and Their Black Cadillac Combat Boots Heels hitting the Deck with the Snap and Pop Sound as they were HIGH Stepping Leaning Back and Struting. My Platoon was totally Intimidated and Humbled by their Marching. They Drowned us out so badly that our Senior Drill Instructor SDI Gunnery Sergeant GYSGT Gerald A Gordon ordered us to Mobbed it back to our Barracks and told us they Wimped us out and we Better be able to March like that when our Close Order Drill Proficiency Training started with one of our Drill Instructors Staff Sergeant SSGT Keith Bland. Needless to say at Second Phase of our Marine Recruit Training we were allowed to bloused our Cammie Trousers for the C.O.D. Marching Test and Staff Sergeant SSGT Bland's Cadence was the Main one out of our 4 Drill Instructors that I adopted for Marching when i got to my First Duty Station at Marine Barracks MB GUAM Marianas Islands M.I.

They fight as good as they march. In boot, the rifle range and close order drill was the best.
In a word,
Outstanding!

Is this second phase when they have the ammo pouches on their war belts that’s how you know you’re getting close to the end at least that’s what we were told at the main chow hall near the auditorium classroom by those recruits.
the guidon is red that signifies the 3rd phase.
@@tenzintsepak3325 well yeah I know that I just remember losing the ammo pouches by then after BWT
Last day of second phase
What the purpose of slapping the foot forward? Seems to be several variations.
