Warrior Women: Making US Marines | Forces TV
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- The proportion of the population who serve in the US military is 45% higher than in the UK and it's clear just how much civilians value the efforts of their service personnel. The US marines are a powerful brand and that goes for both men and women, since the Corps has accepted women into its ranks since 1918. But it was only in 2016 that, for the first time, female marines have been allowed to serve in combat roles.

there r only 2 reason I wouldn't get into the marines
1. I'm not American
2. wtf r they saying
Yea
@@grvyrdrose1557 I came when I was 11 and I'm a Marine. You don't have to be American to appreciate everything this land has given you, knowingly you would never have received the same if you stayed in your native country. Plus what better branch to join then the Marine Corps!
sam santos YES same here 😭
@@grvyrdrose1557yea there's 2 things with that 1 don't wanna be American
2 y join the usmc when I have the way better option of royal marines
sam santos shame paras are better lol, fr good luck with the marines brother
I have not heard a Drill instructor in his reagular voice
Drill instructor: we like to make a stressful environment
Schools: *hold my beer*
I know its like a year ago comment but stfu dude public schools and colleges cant even compare to the training they do
@@daswack4192 i forgot i even commented but i was just jokin
The biggest thing I was taught in the military was 'always believe in your equipment'. If you Parachute, when you jump it WILL open, when you absail, the rope WILL hold your weight. So nothing to worry about eh!
Your Rifle WILL fire.
my biggest dream is to become a marine
*4 more years*
*3 more years*
*2 more years*
(ima be counting down)
Same, 3 more for me
Aliyha Tonepahhote two for me but only one until I can enlist and go into delayed entry
Start studying and training for it now kiddo, I have one more year myself.
1 year im 15
6 months until boot camp for me hopefully I can get a sooner date
man that one girl at 5:30 is c h i l l i n on that bar oorah!!!
Chilling on the bar instead of doing real pullups...
D Knight
She’s only doing what she’s been told to do, but you and I know she could breeze through 10 or 15 pullups, no issue.
While she talks about doing what the boys do . All the while having the standard lowered for her
wowww that’s crazy,.. one my friends from boot and mos school is one of the drill instructors in this video 😳
the US marines r btec royal marines
sam santos how are the Royal Marines?
@@charliedallachie3539 Is the PTSD worth it?
Jawan T I don’t know, is it? That’s up to you. British royal forces don’t do that?
@@charliedallachie3539 don't understand u question mate
sam santos meaning does the U.K. do the same with female recruits?
A friend of mine went through Marine Boot & said 40 out of 105 didn't make it. But the Marines don't like wasting training cash so they try to recycle recruits. so they pu 15 recycled recruits. I don't think you would want to wash out on the first go around as a Marine recruit.
Back in 81 in Navy boot the quitters got put into a posmo platoon (positive motivation) & they'd have some lite duty SEAL's PT them 12hrs a day till they processed out or reformed. We'd see those poor bastards running around with lead filled rifles above their heads all the time. The prisoners in the brig got better treatment. Better to finish boot & then quit if you can't hack the military
Military training is all a joke now. Sure, videos like this make it look "tough" and "disciplined", but it's all emasculated participation trophies now. They Marines and army no longer attract desirable male recruits, so recruiting is terrible and more and more freaks are slipping through the cracks. Seriously you have to be a grade-A, bonafide f**kup destined for failure if you can't make it through most military training programs now.
Several months before you go in, I would recommend micro-dosing with testosterone and inter-meditate fasting, while working out 6 days a week.
Makes you lighter and stronger.
This will also help with female acne-breakouts, as this is due to too much of a testosterone increase at once.
Alternate between not sleeping 2 days, and then sleeping 6-8 hours. Also, learn to nap and not rely on coffee.
Don't dehydrate yourself by drinking too much water!
Get your body use to military food with similar fat-protein-carb ratio & proportions.
This will help you tremendously.
This was helpful. Hopefully I'm going to BCT this summer.
Thank you so much!!🤍
Testosterone? next time you will find yourself hitting on another girl.
What kind of testosterone would you recommend?
@@Glamcandy03 yeah I was thinking the same thing
Very interesting how most of the people who are making comments have never served. These women Marines are tougher than you men who have never served. Semper Fi
Leatherneck 2038 Well said brother Semper Fi
That's for sure! No "bone spurs" afflict these Marines!!
Even if these women were mentally the toughest people ever on earth they are still completely destroyed in combat by average male conscripts.
john smith still they are better than you :). Men that comment here like you are only envious because they can’t do what those females can. Period
Get over it 😂😂
Magaly Henriquez Most teenage boys could make it through women's marine training, dont get butt hurt cause you cant handle facts. Its sad that only a third of em make it through.
Men making comments about how women aren’t intimidating enough for the military, are the reason why we join. Y’all are too immature. Grow up.
john smith dude no one said that women can do exactly what men do. and that’s exactly why women should join. we naturally bring different skill sets that can be beneficial to the military. it is people like you that empower women to become better and stronger. so thank you
john smith I see where you’re coming from, don’t get me wrong. But, the military does do this, they do water down the standards, and if women weren’t meant to be in the military then it still wouldn’t be available. I think that we should however, owe credit to where it’s due. And saying that women shouldn’t be in the military is completely discrediting all the women fighting for our country. It’s not like we’re going to have to do 100 pull ups in the middle of the war. If you can shoot a gun, help your buddy when they’re down and communicate, that’s all that matters.
Shouldn't you be joining for your country? Not to prove someone wrong.
Most of the people who go into the military nowadays isn't going in just because they want to go to war...they're looking for job security.
@john smith
Dude they're trying to fight wars and you're on youtube, they can do everything you cant do
Why the phoney double standard based on gender? Either the women shave their hair short like the men or the men wear their hair long like the women do. Equality for all, walk the talk then!!
Sorta funny how the POSITIVE comments are getting more likes than the negative ones
Your feelings don't matter.
@@truereaper4572 Nor do yours.
I wonder how many of those women will actually experience combat.
none this is just a paper exercise.
@@ianking8315 lol stfu keyboard warrior
@@JJTOPSMILE
You don’t seem to understand
None.. they learn regular job skills and are in support roles.. while being skanks that'll put out for her whole unit
Before you decide to post a hate comment about women serving the the USMC or any other branch, think about how many women have died fighting for their country, both gender deserve equal respect, they both fought and died for their country.
(not my comment but still..)
hahaha a handful of women have died in combat. meanwhile, THOUSANDS of males have died in combat
@Eric Miret But if women are not capable of being soldiers, wouldn't it make sense if more died than men?
@@angelo8304
No because if you are not capable to be a soldier then you won’t be a soldier
Therefore you are little threat to the enemy
And for what has this marines died for what evil they have died for nothing
No women in combat roles for marines... Few female casualties. Thousands of men ..simp harder
Next year will be 30 year's since I was in boot camp at Parris Island. Watching this brought it all back. Getting up at 4:30 to PT before it got too hot, snapping in at the rifle range, having a beach party (you go into this big sand box and do pushups, sit-up's, etc. and roll around until you're covered head to toe) and then having to stand at attention and not move as the sand flea's bite your entire body. Oh..and then walking around like that for hours until you are given permission to wash off with a garden hose. Good times! I notice a few differences between recruit training now and what it was like in my day but they don't mean much. We female Marines are few and far between but in the end we're all Marines! Semper Fi!!!
Thank you for your service, I'm a fifteen year old girl from Texas. I am planning on joining the Marines when I get my GED in two years. I want to serve my country in the best way I can and i truly believe in my heart that joining the Marine Corps is the right path
Same! 1986 graduation.
Personally I have no issues with the Americans. The ones, I have meet in my career have been as good as gold. However this is a UK Military Channel so why not do something on HM Forces. I know a revolutionary concept!! We do not need to compare ourselves to our American cousins. We have our way of doing things they have there's.
bigjohn697791 there is value in your comment. There are aggressive agendas in full throttle right now and one of their goals is to eliminate any indipendent thinking individuals, communities or nations.
US Marines set aside individuality for a time for the good of the team, but we have a civil commander in chief for a reason and His authority comes from the American people.
Right now, the people, the CINC, and most Marines (personally if not officially) agree that women dont belong in ground combatant roles. (accompanying such units in support is NOT the same thing).
A minority element has driven this agenda, and as best I can tell they are driving it in the UK as well.
The details vary, of course and we should share them for clarification. The public on both sides of the water deserve to see more than just the propaganda pieces like this one.
bigjohn697791 This is about females in the armed forces. I'm sure that they would do I documentary on females in the armed forces in the U.K. If females were more prominent in the U.K. armed forces.
I think that statement about females not being "Prominent" in the UK Armed Forces is not factually correct! for a start I spent 14 years in the British Army, and have work with some exceptional female colleges from many different corps, and cap badges, even different services! Go speak to some of the girls at the HUMINT Cell in Chicksand or on the SSR Teams at Hereford or the many other roles there are out there of a similar nature.
Get it girls!! The instructor on the bus I couldn't understand what he's saying sounds like a robot LOL
These kids don't have guidance and don't realize that they might be suffering from PTSD one day.
You go Marines!
john smith Women have one extra minute in the runs and have to do one less pull up to meet standard. Not as watered down as you think it is.
Semipr fi
Divide into all Male infantry units and all female infantry units.
Gauge performance.
Then you will have your answers.
@Idan Clark 4.5 years as an infantry paratrooper in the US Army's 82nd Airborne Division.
@@Kalifornia-Screaming Smash! 😂
Warrior Women? In the 60's, we called them BAM's.
Do they have to pass the exact same standards as the males and have any passed so far ? Women have just been allowed to join the infantry in the UK but still to this date not a single woman has gotten passed week 4 and there are 26 in total.
No they don't men have to do 8 pull ups (16 for full points)
Women don't have to do any (8 for full points)
Most women don’t make it, but even the ones that do usually aren’t selected for combat roles, around 1%-2% of combat infantry are women so
A lot of moss have one standard to pass, like aircrew and infantry
@@James-dq7oi women have to do pull ups now for the corps
For Infantry and Aircrew they pass the same standards.
I want to become a marine after graduation 😭
But I don’t know if I’ll pass 😭
Best of luck
ItsYanaa if you doubt yourself then you will not pass.
Do things that are challenging to build confidence. If you don’t first succeed step back, evaluate the situation and try again. Never give up on yourself and if being a Marine is really what you want then you will earn the title.
@Alisha R stfu
sergeant's thoughts : yall are doing good
what sergeant says : YALL SUCK!! WHY ARE YOU SO LOUSY !?
* a joke 😂*
This is something I want to do
When they were serving in Iraq, the Welsh Guards celebrated St David's day by challenging the US Marines to a game of Rugby. I wonder who won...?
Nothing like female marines to relive stress 😂
They used rubber band for pull up...yet the men are not given the same rubber band. Talk about equality
Military is desperate to find recruits and there stretching the rules so women can pass
I watch the similar movies about USMC. First one from 1968. Second one from 1973. And at the last this one. My conclusion is that standards, compared to those two in the past, are in these day just a joke. A sad and embarrassing joke.
The Marine Corps is the only job where you will be yelled at for instruction, for messing up as well as doing a good job during basic training.
I like this inform one day I will ✊
Semper Fi!!
I’m for female equality but realistically, if we had an invasion women would be on the front line of medical and fielding wounded soldiers. It’s very needed there, not women dying on the battlefield but it’s her choice if she wants it.
If the women can meet the same standards as the men, they sure can be in combat.
A ribbon for finishing basics?
It's the National Defense Ribbon for enlisting at a time of crises. AKA "The Firewatch Ribbon"
it's for joining during a time of war. only the Army and Air Force get true "graduation" ribbons, it's a rainbow ribbon that shows they passed basic. Which is stupid. Because obviously you passed.
Confused Broadcasters I think they were created more to show army/Air Force service if you change branches which is dumb but still
Larry Enticer no. It was created because the army and Air Force hand ribbons out like grandparents on Halloween. The Army Service Ribbon was created in 1981 to show that they graduated their basic or MOS training.
5:36 same training!?
Yes. The same training. The exact same training. Different physical standards but same training and pt’s.
which is worse women getting tortured or men getting tortured?
Boot was easy for me because I was already used to being uncomfortable. I didn't come from a charmed life.
To those doubting the ability of women in military combat: The women of a now defunct Sri Lankan guerilla/terrorist group was responsible for the deaths of an ample proportion of the Indian military which got involved in the Sri Lankan civil war/ethnic conflict . Never underestimate female military power in actual combat. These gals concealed themselves in Palmyrah trees shot down the Indian military who were parachuting off planes/helicopters. They couldn’t figure out why their soldiers were literally dropping dead like flies. This happened in the 90s.
Great throw 120 pounds on their backs and tell them to keep up with men.
Yeah but India did not mobilise all the units
With the Indian airforce they would die
Folks I enlisted my Marine Corps in 1979 and after being a macho Marine and watching this video any WM i will be proud to go go into combat with you. You have my back I have yours.
11:26 hold my blunt!
Yes it's very not easy for the recruit but just think of how many weeks the Drill Instructor had training. Those Drill Instructors earned are a rare breed,
2 years after my daughter joined!!!!!
Great to hear bagpipes playing "Greenhills" at 15.56
GOD Washington the 2 tim god bless American citizen you do good work
They don't look scarey to me and I'm sure they won't scare any enemy troops. They don't make me feel secure about the future of our country. PCB.
Just imagine them trying the Royal Marine PRMC.None of them manage it man or woman!
David Knowles They could believe me
David Knowles, I would have to agree.. A nine mile stroll in the park is hardly a show of true grit..
It should not be a competition we should respect one another and each others work, but that saying I love my marines and you better not even think about disrespecting them. They’ll drag you through the mud have a good day sir
How come those broads aren't training with the men?!
I signed all money and they muster gas me at 5 years old I'm god tim
The close-minded blatant sexism I see in the comments honestly makes me sick. I see we still have a long way to go for equality.
Witch is why I try not to really look at the comments of these type of videos
I don't mind women in the military the thing I mind is when they lower the standards to let them in.
i support women in military but lowering standards is not ok
@john smith Yes sir
if you wanted equality, you would want females to be required to pass the male pt test
It only takes 13 weeks to be a marines
No, there're further weeks of training awaiting ALL members of the armed forces. 13 weeks of boot is one qualification. Once I got past boot camp, then I had six months of further training before I was posted TDY to Europe.
I really don’t understand all the shouting, stress can be made in different ways
Benedetto De Vizio how would you recommend they impose stress without causing PTSD by the time they leave Boot camp?
At this point the screaming is for tradition because it has already been scientifically proven not to affect anything that would make them more combat ready compared to boots in the army.
The screaming is funny lol
Benedetto De Vizio well the Royal Marines don't shout and arguably they are far detter trained and disciplined.
totally agree Samuel
Samuel royal marines are special for USMC are a conventional invasion force.
I want to join the royal marines
I like a woman in uniform
What a great idea.....using our Military for some politically correct social experiment. SMFH!
Women in direct ground combat....dumbest idea I've seen in some time.
If I were the decision maker: No co-ed training platoons and no women in any form of direct ground combat.
Yes....I have the experience and wisdom to comment on this foolishness.
Have a great day....
this is the first time i heard a drill sargent talking in a calm voice 1:03
Because you’ve never been to boot camp you dumbass. They’re drill instructors
I am a man 56, living in Delaware and I am so proud and happy for these women Marines. Remember this as you eat chow. You deserve all our respect.
Deleware…..nuff said. You raise your integrated army and I will raise an army of men that must meet rigorous standards and are trained to be brutal killers. Who will win I wonder?

The women make better officers!
How many females pass the test?
Good on them. Just one thing, 9 miles compared to the 30 miles of the UK marines? 3 months compared to the 8 months of the UK marines? Someone educate me why are they both considered equal? (Yes I know America is a power house)
Short answer is they arent. US mairnes are an expeditionary force, not really elite forces. Royal Marines are the UK's premiere light infantry, something the 75th rangers do in America. Two different jobs with vastly different sizes and standards.
Basic training is not the end for US marines. After this they get sent to specialist schools to learn their military specialty including the School of Infantry
Why are they getting different standards?
If they can get into infantry they should do the same seeing that they need to carry the same and do the same

None

I was in a Heavy Transport Rgmt with 40% Girls in it. And they can fight. Mind you mostly with each other. The Guys stood well back you would not want to get mixed up in the middle of them.
As a marine I’ve seen them train, and I’ve seen a female officer on a run a mean a real run , not only carry her back pack but the man next to her, carry both his and hers...... supporting him all the way, just because their women doesn’t mean their nit capable, I’ve seen younger men fold in combat, you never know how anyone will perform Nader certain conditions.....try and hurt a woman’s child is like trying to fight a bear protecting her cubs 😉 semiper fi 👍🏻

O deary I shed a tear...
A couple weeks at home afterward?
They didn't even take their gas mask off in the chamber!
I believe they must break the seal on the masks, which let's the gas in
Mike Martinez they only break the seal w two fingers which lets the gas in and they have to try to filter the air again by covering the sides when breathing. They’re not supposed to take them all the way off
Well that's today's military. We stayed in the chamber
We had to take the mask off, give name and ask permission to leave.
About 70% were gloriously sick out of that door.

I like how not only now women can join but now they’re are being permitted into combat but the IST needs to be put equal or closer because I think the whole stamina strength gap is all in the head of people of thinking feminine individuals are more fragile therefore less powerful that’s bogus women are equal if not stronger than us men, given the right training and lessons empower them as u empower us
Some women can be stronger. But biologically for the most part men are stronger. Not all but most
@@feelsweirdman_1823 Indeed
I see the brain washings working then! 🤣🤣
Not in the marines. Women don't go in combat arms because they can't hack it.. the most capable female soldier/marine wouldn't be able to keep up with the average infantryMAN.
No. Not a realistic possibility. Puts other troops in danger. IMO
It wouldn’t if men could learn how to think with their brains and not their genitalia
it kinda looks like theyre all holding their rifles correctly
Srgt sounds like Justin beiber
10:59 they look like Slipknot 😄
The unwritten/unspoken double standard is that females get promoted with substandard performance, which means bare minimum which is not the true Marine way, and anyone, male or female who dares scrutinize such a female will have no future in the Corp, no career for the honest evaluators. Many women drop out anyway on their own volition, but the females that stay in tend to be the most self-centered careerists ever seen in uniform.
My deep regard for women is this: America's Fathers, husbands, brothers and sons should be protecting their Mothers, wives, sisters and daughters, NOT the other way around. Gender norming and refusal to recognize fundamental differences by sex is just perverse insanity.
You are absolutely fucking insane and this closed-minded blatant sexist mindset is what's halting the human race as a whole from advancing. It's been a year since your wrote this, hopefully you grew some brains AND balls to be able to admit how wrong your state was.

so sad my family wont be able to be there for my graduation :(
I am a 63 year old divorced Marine but if I could find a near my age WM I would consider getting married again because a1 Marine thinks as another Marine.
Very impressive. Even from as young as 18 being able to complete the gruelling training. Being shouted at though before they've even got off the bus is a shock to the system I bet. Definitely alot of respect to them all❤
Ahh wooks
Great video, now we need the female version of the British Army. We want to see more women in the British army please.
Only 9 miles
Bob Herron they have to carry like 75 pounds on their back so yeah it’s “just” 9 miles but with extra weight with only like 3 hrs of sleep with an apple and Gatorade for breakfast
Haha try running 9 miles with all that equipment on, then come back and your measly comment will be relevant.
Where was the pull up??? I only saw a hang
You hang for at least 12 seconds then do pull-ups.
That's probably the case. How do you know for sure though?
I m sorry but the women divalu the marines
You devalue the english language when you can’t spell
So standards are no longer... STANDARDS..!!! And why don't they get a haircut?? And why are they in woman only platoons? A safespace??

No such thing.

why are these recruits allowed to have long hair? it doesn't make any kind of sense. off with it if you want to be a female marine.
They have to where there hair on a bun
NO! it doesn't make sense. wanna be a marine, gotta be ready. sorry sarge, gotta fix my hair. or, i'm a male with long hair. equal opportunity dictates that i can keep my hair as long as i tie it in a bun. or, just for fun, let's take this a bit further. i'm a transvestite cross dresser with long hair which under the agenda of equal opportunity in the u.s. military has to be accepted,...... sorry sarge, i gotta fix my hair. after that i gotta do my nails. but don't rush me. or i'll never be combat ready. :) lol anton.
Lol because it’s socially acceptable for men to have no hair.
And they think they compare anywhere near to the RM🤣
Hehe what a joke
What's with the hunched posture of the drill instructors? Anyone else notice all are bowed in the back? Is this somehow menacing?
i also thought about that too
