MCT wasn't bad. Did mine at Camp Pendleton in '02. We were the last cycle to only have to do 17 days. I wouldn't quite say we had a weekend. It was more like we had a few hours on Saturday after getting back from the field, and most of Sunday to f off around base. Flew in the day before and was in the same hotel as some buddies from boot camp. Just chilled and drank some beers and reported to the USO at the airport in San Diego the next day. MCT is like boot camp light lol
I just got out of mct about a week and a half ago and as far as the heaters go you are absolutely right I'd use one in the morning to warm my hands during chow and I'd save the others for either later in the morning before the sun came up or I'd use one at night when I'm trying to sleep I'd put it between my bivvy sack and sleeping bag worked like a charm
These stuff might applies for the marines in the east coast but i recently graduated from west MCT and we were not allowed to keep any snacks from our MREs unless you're sneaky with it and you dont get liberty until the last weekend so..
Hey Clayton i would like to get a college education while I'm in the Marines. When will I receive that learning for that kind of stuff and how does that work if you have done it?
+Seth Woods I did do college while in the Marines. This is a solid question, one which deserves a video. Remind me either later tonight or tomorrow evening (with a comment) and I'll knock it out, quick!
I about starved to death at MCT, I don’t know how anyone would get fat off of MRE’s. I about starved to death at boot camp too. Fuckers need to feed us about 5000 more calories a day.
Nathan Zazo made 120 in one night buying fire watch, another 80 from dip and 50 for laundry. So not too bad but spent it all on dominos as soon as I got to mos school. So in reality I fucked my self
I'm about to go MCT. I have several papers ordering me to not get a hotel should I arrive early. Who knows why, but it's not a good idea to start your career off by going against an order.
honestly, don't report early if you can at all help it. that's how i got suck in camp guard for two months. Your report date is your report date, you don't get brownie points for coming early. Get a hotel if you feel like it, or split the room with another Marine from your boot camp rotation. Enjoy a little freedom before it's back to the grind.
ClaytonFilpo in training i tought you didnt get paid until after? did most peopke bring money to camp because if not how did you get paid if no ones got cash?
Don't forget to sell your fire watch, or continue to stand watch for a those boots who don't come back off of liberty. Charge them for standing there watch or turn their ass in for deflection of duty. I made a killing at MCT . SGT Grier made sure all those Marines paid up too. Had charge sheets ready for all Marines who didn't lol.I learned the ropes by being set to my MOS school first. MCT after MOS school as a relad. MCT mass consumption of tobacco lol.
Not really since you're technically now a Marine, but that doesn't mean that your instructors treat you like a peer or anything. I guess you could say that you get treated as a human during MCT but kind of like a child who needs to be told what to do.
+SnowyGuy HAHA I would LOVE that. Problem is, getting certified is around $900. Ain't nobody got time fo dat! But that is definitely a life goal of mine.
Hey man I have a question please respond , do you currently own your own business in other words love your videos an see you seem to be doing well an love it just wondering how successful your gotten sense you've left the marines an what are you doing now
The Temple of Azath no only SOI. . . you have to turn in ur phone. But tbh you can hide it threw mct. You'll be in deep shit if the catch you so ur call
All non-03 (non-infantry) go to MCT, grunts go to SOI or School of Infantry instead where they spend more time and go into greater detail on how to be a grunt. MCT is basically the Cliff Notes version of SoI and you learn a little bit more beyond what you get taught in boot camp about being a grunt.
This is glorious, I have been researching "zombie survival" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Ryanzon Survival Genie - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some decent things about it and my friend got great results with it.

Just graduated yesterday 3rd Batt November CO, headed to MCT in 9 days
After boot camp u go to mct and then your mos school right?
yup
You get like 10 days after bootcamp to yourself
Hey man, I really enjoy all your videos. super helpful, funny, and straight to the point. thanks for the tips!
I just got out of mct about a week and a half ago and as far as the heaters go you are absolutely right I'd use one in the morning to warm my hands during chow and I'd save the others for either later in the morning before the sun came up or I'd use one at night when I'm trying to sleep I'd put it between my bivvy sack and sleeping bag worked like a charm
Hey man, Im about to go to MCT and had a quick question about it. How similar is it to the Crucible?
@@dudebro2191 how does it feel bro to already been in for 4 years
@@nicholas1323 well I EASd a little over 2 years ago so pretty good
vest and light sticks, great combo
These stuff might applies for the marines in the east coast but i recently graduated from west MCT and we were not allowed to keep any snacks from our MREs unless you're sneaky with it and you dont get liberty until the last weekend so..
+TTI1105 Very true. You have to be SNEAKY. However, if you're itb, it's my understanding that they are much more lenient.
Hey man, im heading to MCT Tuesday. Is there anything you can tell me other than the information from this video?
Any tips on exercises you can do at home or diets to try and like, prepare for boot camp?
push ups, sit ups, running, and pull ups are the most important
Squats and lunges too, hikes can slay if your not ready
Nvm you been left for boot camp
MAKE SURE YOUR BOOTS FIT IF NOT GET BOOTS THAT FIT
Lmfao why'd you just drop like that at the end lol 😂😂😂😂

+ClaytonFilpo Ok great sure thing!
Seth Woods boot camp will give you so many college credits as well I believe
I about starved to death at MCT, I don’t know how anyone would get fat off of MRE’s. I about starved to death at boot camp too. Fuckers need to feed us about 5000 more calories a day.
Hey Clayton think you can take on my College question in the Marines?
Can you hv your cell phone in MCT? Call messages to your family? How fast you need to eat your lunch/dinner? Thanks
Thank You clayton!!! this is very useful can you please make more videos like this, on how to handle money and earn money :) thank you so much!
+Bryan Reyes I have on money management video, but I can definitely make more!
MCT tomorrow thanks bud I'm about to make some mad ass cash
How did that go? Just curious
Nathan Zazo made 120 in one night buying fire watch, another 80 from dip and 50 for laundry. So not too bad but spent it all on dominos as soon as I got to mos school. So in reality I fucked my self
No way you sold skittles for 10 bucks a pop 😲😂
Those tips were great! Can't wait to use them

What % markup did you charge?
Sometimes up to 400%. If I'd buy a power bar for $2, I'd most likely sell it for $5 or $6
Now that's some major profit
ClaytonFilpo in training i tought you didnt get paid until after? did most peopke bring money to camp because if not how did you get paid if no ones got cash?
This is MCT which is after boot camp, at this point you're considered a Marine (if largely untrained) and you'll have regular access to cash now.
Riceball01 oh thx

Hey, during MCT do they yell at you like they do in basic training?
You get treated a lil better but everyday is like camping, hiking, being out in the field is what suck

why am i watching this, i got my dd214 a year ago and i went to itb
Nice video Clayton!
+maddog3121 Thnx bruh! Also, didn't get to livestream last night. Just had a ton of work to do! Should be back tonight!
noice doggg
You should become a personal trainer on the side and start making money off your gym visits. Don't sell candy though you aren't Planet Fitness :D
+SnowyGuy HAHA I would LOVE that. Problem is, getting certified is around $900. Ain't nobody got time fo dat! But that is definitely a life goal of mine.
Can u leave base when ur in MCT
would you not give up smoking during bootcamp?
You can’t smoke in boot camp.
Do mct people get liberty?
How long is MCT?
+Ismael Valle The legit training part lasts a month
Great video! You rock!
+Samantha Fovel WRONG. (you guys rock)
I haven't found the heaters lately
I love how honest he is
1. Don’t report to MCT dirty.
2. Buy the good socks. Like $15 a pair.
I'd say that selling your MRE is a bit much but it's not like we get paid a ton...
smarter than the average bear scream i sir! my Di's favorite saying lol
I leave June 26th. Wish me luck
when is fan mail
Fan mail will go live tomorrow, brother! This one exciting, you're in it!
+ClaytonFilpo thanks
I'm all for entrepreneurs, but selling Skittles for $10? What what a scum bag move.
Mikhail Mikhail bro people lose their shit in the field. Inwas selling dip for 15 a pop
Hey man I have a question please respond , do you currently own your own business in other words love your videos an see you seem to be doing well an love it just wondering how successful your gotten sense you've left the marines an what are you doing now
Can you use your phone on sat and sundays
The Temple of Azath no only SOI. . . you have to turn in ur phone. But tbh you can hide it threw mct. You'll be in deep shit if the catch you so ur call
Skittles for $10 a pop 😂😂 you're a legend
You've been to MCT? I thought u were a combat correspondent
+Pete Gjonaj Everyone goes to MCT my friend
I actually thought it was only for people going into infantry
That is Infantry Training Battalion. Marine Combat Training is for all Marines
All non-03 (non-infantry) go to MCT, grunts go to SOI or School of Infantry instead where they spend more time and go into greater detail on how to be a grunt. MCT is basically the Cliff Notes version of SoI and you learn a little bit more beyond what you get taught in boot camp about being a grunt.
The guys who payed $10 for Skittles kicked his ass, or should have
I would have. That’s fucked up.
Don’t go to Holding!
Jacksonville?Florida?you live there?
Juul pods are probably going to be the big thing at MCT especially with my generation
I graduated from parris island aug 25 2017 3rd rtbn India co plt 3060 now leaving tomorrow to mct east
MCT is literally the easiest fucking training you will do. ITB is a lot tougher and why less people do it
what about itb?
did u report that money 2 the IRS
😍😍
I'm ready, I play COD.
We need moar!
