I want to know what happens if you swear? I can definitely see myself saying, F***! Goddamnit! If I fell hard on the ground. I can also see myself losing my composure after getting too frustrated and saying, 'F*** this shit!'

Lol, I remember my division we got to the point of egging our DIs on for more punishment till they got tired. Our senior DI had the biggest smile on his face by the end of those days. We out performed the other divisions in our class. 😁
Yup, we had one recruit that lost his weapon and we got smoked for like 4 hours. The recruit that lost his weapon, our DI's made him carry a plant instead lmao.
When I went to Scout Swimmer School at Coronado in the late 80's, a dude lost a plastic rifle in the surf. We all tried to help him find it but couldn't. He got NJP'd as if it was a real rifle. It was a big deal!
@@johnfisher8401i heard it was getting soft too lol, still remember this one recruit getting drop kicked by our edi for looking inside the sdi house 🤣 just graduated a month ago 2nd BN Fox co 2086
I'm an old man now, but I went through Parris Island as a recruit, a DI and a PMI. Those who might think this training is too harsh, have never been to combat. I'm so freakin' motivated right now. Semper Fi all.
Thank God for these guys. They work 100+ hours a week and when theyre assigned to a recruit company dont do much else for 12 weeks. They work within strict safety guidelines for recruits and still maintain the toughness and discipline required. Remember that in combat there's a whole lot more goin on- and the enemy has no safety guidelines.... God Bless the USMC and the US Navy!
@@theinternetisntreal- The Marines are far from soft, they are the most feared Infantry in the world for a good reason - they are hyper aggressive and will fuck you up, all they do is destroy & kill.
I loved and hated basic training (Army). I loved being around my buddies but I hated the loss of sleep, everything having to be perfect while your wiped out physically and mentally, and the chow took a while to get used to. I learned to just down it and not expect it to taste like Ma's cooking. Just scarf it down and move on.
And the worse part is , training is nothing compared to combat. Thats why training is the way it is , especially for SOF , RASP was the most brutal thing I’ve ever done but it was nothing compared to getting into the real thing.
For sure, once the Marines finish the Crucible and get their Marine Corpse emblems, the DI's demeanor towards the recruits goes from aggressive to respectful and proud.
@oldfrend obviously they are there to train you and most of what they do is done without malicious intent, but they can absolutely be assholes that love to fuck with you. Tell me how making a recruit yell "I'm a fat little piggy oink oink" while crawling around on the floor sniffing for food is training lmao.
"That felt great didn't it" LMAO I swear to god the hardest part most days was holding in your laughter. Some of the funniest stuff ever would happen and you gotta sit there and act like you don't think it's funny. Real discipline lol
Except private M. A. Lewis, a fraudulent enlistee from Detroit. If I even remotely thought I could get away with it, I would have killed him for real. We were finally able to drop him after he failed the final PFT. And he didn't finally get a bus ticket until he took a huge nasty hand full of the Regimental Commander's birthday cake.
It’s so easy for someone like me to be sitting on the couch scratching my balls and playing video games laugh at the guys who are being yelled at but I, nor any of us who haven’t been through these situations can talk. I applaud all the recruits in this video. It’s one thing to get chewed out and pushed to your limits, it’s another to have it on film for the world to see.
The one recruit that just gave up and stopped fighting that's the only time I've ever truly been worried because being a little slow on a run or not carrying out a series of instructions is one thing but to completely just fold and give off the weakness energy is enough to bring forth a fury that could terrorize the grim reaper. Regardless of the branch whether it's Air Force, Army, Navy or Marines they all hate weakness they all hate giving up and doing that in a Marine environment oh my goodness I was worried that they were going to rip that boy apart. We all know once the cameras we're off he learned a lesson that day and I'm sure the DIs took their time hammering the point home.
An unsecured rifle is possibly one of the worst things you can do as a recruit. The entire platoon is going to get ripped several new assholes later on.
Dawg yes bro like what the fuck. Seen something he wasn’t happy with got so dam worked up he just fucking launched like a dam warhead almost took recruit head off 😂
7:55 "When you're done picking up your teeth sir, pick up your freaking cover too..." OUCH!!! I witnessed a drill instructor slip and tumble down a ladderwell. I didn't say a word. I just dropped and started pushing. Seemed like the respectful thing to do at the time.
01:41 “Beat that little fairies ass now” in the background with that raspy smoker voice, as dude is just lost in a sea of an asswhooping.. TOOK. ME. TF. OUT. 😭😭😂😂
I think seeing the coward recruit in the fighting, was the first video i actually felt the brush of death pass into my phone into the video. That has been the only time i have been genuinely afraid for the recruit's life. Regardless of the branch of service, if you think the training is hard, act like a coward. You will learn a new definition of pain and suffering. Cowardice is hated by ALL of them.
11 years in the Army. I remember at something like week 14 of 16 for us, one guy just flat out quit in front of our senior drill sgt. I was 5 feet away. I got out of there quicker than quick. Never saw him again.
@@codybaxter9939 A great deal of people are cowards the first time they get in the shit. Its the good Cpl's and Sgt's that get them out of that frozen in fear and get it done.
@@05jrgoldsberry Shoulda seen the recent Third Battalion graduation. They had a company of just over or just under 400. NONE of them ran a 300 PFT. I know probably why, you can figure it out if you pay close attention, and apply a little logic. High PFT for the COMPANY was 297.
I went through in 2004. When I hopped off the bus and the screaming started, I quickly realized that the drill instructors were not allowed to use certain swear words. Hearing one of them tell somebody to “shut the damn piss up” had me in stitches immediately. The comedy lasted all the way through Basic.
I went through boot camp in 1984, I don't remember a officer talking to us about getting under 28 minutes. I remember the drill instructors pushing us to get as close to 18 minutes as possible. GySgt USMC retired
I was in 98 and if you didn’t finish your runs in under 28 minutes your ass went to PCP and get washed back to the next graduating battalion there was no speech from the CO.
@@Lee-hd3gf The biggest difference from what I’ve seen in theses videos are weak recruits that shouldn’t be in training. They need to go the PCP or physically conditioning platoon until they meet PT standards. The overweight guy should be in there because he couldn’t complete the obstacle course and the skinny guy that was struggling on his run should be put in there. He honestly looks like he could do 3 miles in 15 to 17 minutes with his physique. We didn’t get motivational talks. We either met standards or get washed back until we did or get discharged from boot camp. I have no idea if they still put the platoon in the sandpit or recruits on the quarterdeck or rifle punishment like they did back then. But Drill Instructor wise they still sound the same as they did back then the only difference I see from this set of drill instructors is my 4 drill instructors rarely cussed back then. We either listened or they’d get their point across with the sandpit or quarterdeck or rifle exercises. I did something stupid in mess hall week and was made to run a half a mile from the mess hall to the squad bay on the 3rd deck 4 times and each time do 20 pull ups.
@@yaggity damn. Props to you, that shit must've been hard to deal with as a grown ass adult. Being not only surrounded by damn near children but also be treated like a child. Congrats! At 18 I hadn't been around long enough to know the games they played. I was an E6 when I was 27 and I damn sure wouldn't have been able to play recruit games.
@@Andrew-dd1fr If you laugh they won't kick you out, they will punish you till the smile leaves your face for a good long time, and if they find it hard to get through to you that way, they'll make sure those around you suffer too, and that sure as shit will set you straight.
That senior drill instructor at the end was very inspiring. I’m joining the marines in a few months. I’m currently training myself trying to get stronger. Up until now I thought that DIs were just heartless and they wanted you to quit. But it’s not fucking Navy Seal training. They don’t want you to quit. They want you to succeed. Leave your weakness behind.
Remember, "Marine" is Our Title. It's earned. And, FYI, it's capitalized. Good luck, poolee. Stay motivated. Stay focused. I promise you this: if you make it, you'll have earned it. And as the years go by, its value only increases. In other words, it's WORTH it. Semper Fidelis.
@@danlilly1790 - For YOUR information...Soldier, Sailor, and Airman are also capitalized because they earned their title too!! Just because your training has more screaming and yelling doesn't mean that your title is worth any more than anyone else's title!! Calm down on the cockiness! Remember it's about ONE United States Armed Forces, not about Marines thinking their more important than anyone else! I promise you, they're not! HOOAH!
Somewhere in the jungle In the middle of the rain There's a US Marine And he's going insane Don't cry, don't cry He dont want your sympathy He's a US Marine Born to be in Infantry
I love the DIs especially the SDI. You may hate them for 12 training weeks, but when you're marching on that grinder on graduation day as a Marine, you'll see the method to their madness
I remember going through boot camp in 06. A lot of the guys couldn't handle getting yelled at. They would shake and pass out. Didn't bother me. My dad was old school army. He yelled all the time. Even when there would be three or four in my face yelling it took everything I had not to smile. I would think about my dad and the off the wall shit he would say to me and my brother.
Same here. My dad yelled at me, called me every name in the book, you name it. Then I went thru and it was like nothing. Dad came to see me graduate and he did a 180.
These were my Drill Instructors July - Oct 2002; Company C aka Suicide Charlie, Plt 1107 SDI SSgt Sandercock, DI SSgt Kern, SSgt Miller, SSgt Bodish, Series GySgt Palm, Co Cmdr Capt Bloomquist
I don't know how it is now but I went to Navy boot camp in 1998 and there was yelling, screaming, cursing, foot lockers thrown, guys passing out, guys running away etc...Navy boot camp isn't as soft as people think it is.
@@mr_m4613 When I went to boot camp in 97 I knew a guy who went to Navy boot camp about 3 months after me. I ran into him the following year and he said the same thing. He said his DI’s were former Marine DI’s. He said now I know what you went through. He was like Marine DI’s are no joke. I just laughed
This had to be Charlie Company 1st recruit training BN in MCRDSD. This had to be about 2003 to 2004. I went to boot mid 2004 and remember some of those drill instructors. Great times
I never joined the military but my dad was army for twenty years he fought in the gulf back in early 90's as well as Iraq in 2003. My grandpa was a marine and fought in vietnam. I still remember being a kid watching my dad walk into the house with his BDU on and being mesmerized by the whole military lifestyle. I still remember back in 2003 when he went to Iraq and how proud I was of him for serving his country and going to war. Putting his life on the line. God bless all the military families
I recognize that voice from one of the DI. 1st Sargent sandercock he was one of the teachers at NJROTC everyone feared him including me🤣! Very cool guy!
@@larryhicks4203 yes and no he would scream at you if he caught you slacking off, giving attitude, or messing around in class. But other than that he is a very solid person that want’s what’s best for you and to discipline you to be a better person.
Best not to stop. Remember the pugil stick match with the male and female recruits some years ago. Every time he clocked her they jumped in an stopped him and got on his ass! I knew when I watched it, that wasn't how it was supposed to go!
Hands down my experience in Marine Corps bootcamp is one of the best times of my life, yes it was tough, yes it was painful, but it was much needed, and I am forever grateful to the Corps for making me the man I am today! Semper Fi!
The Drill Instructor at 3:00 telling that recruit to get counts was extremely nice. He was like, you wanna try that again? Lol gave him a chance. Very nice. Probably only because he had more important shit to go do.
I absolutely love if you turn on closed captions at some points it simply says [Drill Instructor Chaos] Honestly no other way to put it. The sharks smell blood and brother, they come swarming.
I knew I was in trouble the second I got off the buss. The best day of my life was graduation day! The words still are fresh in my mind: "Today is the day, I'm proud to be the first to call you a Marine". Semper Fi
I don’t. It looks like he’s trying to b*tch out and force them to send him home. You only go home with a DD213, legitimate medical reasons, or in a box.
Maybe I’m twisted, but I found the rope recruit kind of wholesome. That instructor really wants to see him achieve his full potential or he wouldn’t be standing there pushing him like that.
I hope it never changes I hope it stays that emotionally and mentally rough war has no room for mentally and emotionally weak. That is the drill instructors job to push each and every one of them past what they can handle that's where you see what someone's really made of. Not for everyone. The few the proud the Marines
4:20 That recruit in the rope is heart breaking to see but very important to look at. People will make fun of him cuz he’s failing all the time. But that is a mental barrier he’s going thru. The instructor is showing him how to do it at a standstill, but he is so tired he can’t process the answer and apply it. It’s all mental.
Wouldn't make fun of him. Would call him pathetic though.
love that he kept fighting. hope he didn't get hurt though.

@@05jrgoldsberry Shoulda seen the recent Third Battalion graduation. They had a company of just over or just under 400. NONE of them ran a 300 PFT. I know probably why, you can figure it out if you pay close attention, and apply a little logic. High PFT for the COMPANY was 297.

@@Aqueox too late
@@robertmorris8997 Damn straight.
You know its going to be a great video when SDI SSGT Sandercock is involved.
Boot camp was one of the best times in my life. It was like being in a comedy show. Our drill instructors were funny as hell. 3:37
Yup. You know they go in the hut and start cracking up themselves behind closed doors. Especially at the dumb recruit’s
@@PhilMacrackin-wj7bg yeah they got enough to be laughing about
I went through in 2004. When I hopped off the bus and the screaming started, I quickly realized that the drill instructors were not allowed to use certain swear words. Hearing one of them tell somebody to “shut the damn piss up” had me in stitches immediately. The comedy lasted all the way through Basic.
7:56 Martinez smack the shit outta himself😂
"Oh oh Martinez hey buddy"
I went through boot camp in 1984, I don't remember a officer talking to us about getting under 28 minutes. I remember the drill instructors pushing us to get as close to 18 minutes as possible. GySgt USMC retired
I was in 98 and if you didn’t finish your runs in under 28 minutes your ass went to PCP and get washed back to the next graduating battalion there was no speech from the CO.
How was the marine corp boot camp like back then? Was it more harder?
@@Lee-hd3gf The biggest difference from what I’ve seen in theses videos are weak recruits that shouldn’t be in training. They need to go the PCP or physically conditioning platoon until they meet PT standards. The overweight guy should be in there because he couldn’t complete the obstacle course and the skinny guy that was struggling on his run should be put in there. He honestly looks like he could do 3 miles in 15 to 17 minutes with his physique. We didn’t get motivational talks. We either met standards or get washed back until we did or get discharged from boot camp. I have no idea if they still put the platoon in the sandpit or recruits on the quarterdeck or rifle punishment like they did back then. But Drill Instructor wise they still sound the same as they did back then the only difference I see from this set of drill instructors is my 4 drill instructors rarely cussed back then. We either listened or they’d get their point across with the sandpit or quarterdeck or rifle exercises. I did something stupid in mess hall week and was made to run a half a mile from the mess hall to the squad bay on the 3rd deck 4 times and each time do 20 pull ups.

It would be so much harder to go through this when you become an adult and realize how hilarious it is. 😂
I was just thinking the same thing. At 18 I’d be terrified.
At 40 it would be extremely hard not to laugh and I’d probably get kicked out
I just graduated recruit training at 27 years old. shits hilarious
@@yaggity damn. Props to you, that shit must've been hard to deal with as a grown ass adult. Being not only surrounded by damn near children but also be treated like a child. Congrats! At 18 I hadn't been around long enough to know the games they played. I was an E6 when I was 27 and I damn sure wouldn't have been able to play recruit games.
@@Andrew-dd1fr If you laugh they won't kick you out, they will punish you till the smile leaves your face for a good long time, and if they find it hard to get through to you that way, they'll make sure those around you suffer too, and that sure as shit will set you straight.
That senior drill instructor at the end was very inspiring. I’m joining the marines in a few months. I’m currently training myself trying to get stronger. Up until now I thought that DIs were just heartless and they wanted you to quit. But it’s not fucking Navy Seal training. They don’t want you to quit. They want you to succeed. Leave your weakness behind.
Remember, "Marine" is Our Title. It's earned. And, FYI, it's capitalized. Good luck, poolee. Stay motivated. Stay focused. I promise you this: if you make it, you'll have earned it. And as the years go by, its value only increases. In other words, it's WORTH it. Semper Fidelis.
You got this kid
ngl i recommend don't do it but best of luck regardless
Bootcamp is the easiest part just don’t end up in the recruit sniper platoon or end up with tape for laces
@@danlilly1790 - For YOUR information...Soldier, Sailor, and Airman are also capitalized because they earned their title too!! Just because your training has more screaming and yelling doesn't mean that your title is worth any more than anyone else's title!! Calm down on the cockiness! Remember it's about ONE United States Armed Forces, not about Marines thinking their more important than anyone else! I promise you, they're not! HOOAH!
My time on MCRD PI in 1991 grew me up real quick. Tough time but good memories now.
I was probably there just before you .. November 90- february 91.

Somewhere in the jungle
In the middle of the rain
There's a US Marine
And he's going insane
Don't cry, don't cry
He dont want your sympathy
He's a US Marine
Born to be in Infantry
Semper Fi!
We need to bring back this intensity to basic training.
It's still there in the Marine Corp don't worry
Drill instructor running into the rack at 7:50 is hilarious
I wonder how it even happened he ran straight into it
NEEDS?
NEEDS?!?
….NEEEEEEEEEEDS, SHUT UP!!
Fucking killed me 😂
I love the DIs especially the SDI. You may hate them for 12 training weeks, but when you're marching on that grinder on graduation day as a Marine, you'll see the method to their madness
I remember going through boot camp in 06. A lot of the guys couldn't handle getting yelled at. They would shake and pass out. Didn't bother me. My dad was old school army. He yelled all the time. Even when there would be three or four in my face yelling it took everything I had not to smile. I would think about my dad and the off the wall shit he would say to me and my brother.
Same here. My dad yelled at me, called me every name in the book, you name it. Then I went thru and it was like nothing. Dad came to see me graduate and he did a 180.
I swear, SSgt Sandercock is my new spirit animal 😂
Haha hell yah
Looking back I’m surprised I made it through but man what a feeling when you get that Globe and Anchor!
The last segment, that DI is why those screaming bastards are special.
“I need” rhymes with “high knees”. Good memories.
The interaction at 2:02-2:20 is a pure gold mine of content.
Shit is gold
0:10 DI from the dehydrated video 😂
Yup
He's in the new VET tv series drill
Amazing video. I’ve seen some crazy stuff in my time when I was on the depot. This is pretty normal and motivating.
These were my Drill Instructors July - Oct 2002; Company C aka Suicide Charlie, Plt 1107 SDI SSgt Sandercock, DI SSgt Kern, SSgt Miller, SSgt Bodish, Series GySgt Palm, Co Cmdr Capt Bloomquist
0:04 got me laughing already lmao
I rewind that part many times 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bro 5:55😂
Cover Pile! Lmao
when the DI threw the rifle down the squad bay ..they all knew it was gonna be a long nite
I’m about to head into Navy Basic and I’ve got no doubt I’ll be yelled at like these fellas right here
Actually probably no. Navy is super woke now plus stress cards and such.
@@vircentti Stress cards? What the hell is a stress card?
I don't know how it is now but I went to Navy boot camp in 1998 and there was yelling, screaming, cursing, foot lockers thrown, guys passing out, guys running away etc...Navy boot camp isn't as soft as people think it is.
@@mr_m4613 When I went to boot camp in 97 I knew a guy who went to Navy boot camp about 3 months after me. I ran into him the following year and he said the same thing. He said his DI’s were former Marine DI’s. He said now I know what you went through. He was like Marine DI’s are no joke. I just laughed
@@vircenttidamn, when did that start? I did basic in 2014 and it wasn't quite THAT bad yet...
This had to be Charlie Company 1st recruit training BN in MCRDSD. This had to be about 2003 to 2004. I went to boot mid 2004 and remember some of those drill instructors. Great times
The d.i. At 1:27 had me dying💀
I never joined the military but my dad was army for twenty years he fought in the gulf back in early 90's as well as Iraq in 2003. My grandpa was a marine and fought in vietnam. I still remember being a kid watching my dad walk into the house with his BDU on and being mesmerized by the whole military lifestyle. I still remember back in 2003 when he went to Iraq and how proud I was of him for serving his country and going to war. Putting his life on the line. God bless all the military families
7:55 looks like the DI didn’t calculate the landing too well
At 6:00 - - - Sir this recruit believes the rope to be DEFECTIVE sir!!
AMAZING!! I bought all 5 MOTO videos and it was the best decision of my life for my kids!!
Right from the beginning of the video. “This recruit needs” off in the distance “Aaaarrrrgggghhhhh! Needs!” My goodness 😂😂
I recognize that voice from one of the DI. 1st Sargent sandercock he was one of the teachers at NJROTC everyone feared him including me🤣! Very cool guy!
I'm assuming he's the same way as a JROTC instructor as he is in these videos? If so, I didn't know you could do that in school 😂
@@larryhicks4203 yes and no he would scream at you if he caught you slacking off, giving attitude, or messing around in class. But other than that he is a very solid person that want’s what’s best for you and to discipline you to be a better person.
Gunny Palm!? I served with him back in the day when he was Sargent Palm... absolutely awesome guy. Glad to see he did well .
7:09 made me laugh so hard 💀 I would get smoked everyday lol 😂 Drill Instructors are hilarious lol 😂
Best not to stop.
Remember the pugil stick match with the male and female recruits some years ago. Every time he clocked her they jumped in an stopped him and got on his ass!
I knew when I watched it, that wasn't how it was supposed to go!
I wish the last DI would just yell; “I’m trying to help you maggot!”
Hands down my experience in Marine Corps bootcamp is one of the best times of my life, yes it was tough, yes it was painful, but it was much needed, and I am forever grateful to the Corps for making me the man I am today! Semper Fi!
Need more footage. Love watching this.
DI Adam Sandercock is there to make sure EVERY recruit under his watch succeeds. That's what he excels at.
I would do it all over again. Semper Fi Marines
The SDI In the first clip "who is here for our goddame needs" is hilarious. He is an undercover comedian
0:07 bro could not believe he got yelled at for that💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Scream and you’ll be invisible…. Best advise I ever got
Back in the day,an unsecured rifle would have brought down a wrath,god himself wouldn't want to see.
I'm sure it probably would have been different had the camera not been there.
Thanks brother for your resilience brother, I’m going to meps shortly for the army and now I know what to expect for BCT
nah. You're going into the Army. Dudes in dresses are becoming more popular.
Run, run and run some more...3 miles in 18 minutes is the Goal
@@MichaelThorpeNJ Not in the Army.
Army guy confused
10:14 too damn motivating. i wouldve started sprinting
I love how he's swinging his arms to make it appear like he's running faster than he actually is😂
"let me guess you made it over the short logs didn't you" hahahah im enlisting soon cant wait.
…..I miss this sometimes 🥹
Me to. All the time! I go outta my way to find these videos all the time. I wish there was a camera crew following my platoon arpund
“Why’d you stop, Why’d you stop, Why’d you stop, why’d you stop. WHY DID YOU STOP? WHY DID YOU STOP???” That DI is legendary lol
Good memories and great times love watching these
Same here. I could watch these all day and relive the madness
as an Airman, massive respect to the Marines
The Drill Instructor at 3:00 telling that recruit to get counts was extremely nice. He was like, you wanna try that again? Lol gave him a chance. Very nice. Probably only because he had more important shit to go do.
The first clip lives rent free in my head
How much do we wanna bet a DI told them to get a better haircut then yelled at them until they actually went to the SDI.
Air Force combat vet here. We may or may not have bought our DIs a boombox for the dorms we were in basic. We will always have that bond.
"Air Force combat" - Stopped reading there.
I always liked the Marines I worked with. All of them were solid dudes. People you could count on.
I absolutely love if you turn on closed captions at some points it simply says
[Drill Instructor Chaos]
Honestly no other way to put it. The sharks smell blood and brother, they come swarming.
0:49 BRO I HAVE SEEN THAT GUY IN SO MANY CLIPS
If someone recognizes him and could tell me his name and how long he's been a DI that would be awesome!
SDI SSGT NICHOLS he was in The Marines for 12 years but don’t remember how long he served as DI/SDI I’ve met him in 2013 twice… Good man
The DI with rope recruit is SSGT Mike Nichols. He has that Louisiana drawl that you hear now and then.
How old was he in that clip
@@ajsmusic723he's on the new VET tv series
God bless these marines I am enlisting can’t wait
0:43 lol he sounds like a little girl. I would laugh so hard.
Thought that was 🐸 Kermit
The rope swing is supposed to be a REST event in an O-course…how hard was that kid smoked before he went up there??
4:45 reminded me of Gomer Pyle
0:55 Fight dammit! Best words out of a DI. MOTIVATOR
Damn I can't wait to see more of this! Thanks for the upload Mike!
I knew I was in trouble the second I got off the buss. The best day of my life was graduation day! The words still are fresh in my mind: "Today is the day, I'm proud to be the first to call you a Marine". Semper Fi
That kid on the ropes though. Hard to feel sorry for him. Gotta put out
I don’t. It looks like he’s trying to b*tch out and force them to send him home. You only go home with a DD213, legitimate medical reasons, or in a box.
Tiny heart syndrome
I pity you both.
Maybe I’m twisted, but I found the rope recruit kind of wholesome. That instructor really wants to see him achieve his full potential or he wouldn’t be standing there pushing him like that.
I always die laughing at "NEEEEEEEDS?!?!?" 😂
this video made more comfortable joint the corps.
not because it’s easy, but because the DI’s are there for you to pass.
I hope it never changes I hope it stays that emotionally and mentally rough war has no room for mentally and emotionally weak.
That is the drill instructors job to push each and every one of them past what they can handle that's where you see what someone's really made of.
Not for everyone.
The few the proud the Marines
The DI play by play on the pugil sticks makes it so much funnier
