I was lucky to have just one video taped secret session in my archives. We didn't have the common place technology like the Marines do today. I treasure it like gold. Forever captures my memories of that time period. One day I will post it on you tube.
You have to do it when you feel it's right and if you don't I understand, but when you do, I will cherish that video too and it will probably make my heart grow twice the size.
It my sound odd and it may sound weird, but this video makes me feel so emotional. It was the summer of 1989 when I was at MCRD San Diego as a young 18 year old recruit. It moments like these, just like the video, that help mold me to the man I am today. Discipline, honor, pride, integrity, loyalty, and purpose in life. Sound cliche or corny but the Marine leadership and principles I continue to use today.
Trust me. They understand that the guidon is going to slip on that linoleum. Plus the SDI is going to work with the guide on his movements more than the J is. They won't really mess with the guide unless he really fucks the movement up.
+jarhead2547 You're very lucky to have a digitial memory captured. Your SDI hooked you up. This was not available in my day although I do have on recording I have yet to post on you tube all these decades...I believe the statue of limitations is up by now....lol!
I graduated boot camp just this year February 26th 2021 platoon 1074 it’s really a weird perspective seeing how things used to be and how they are now different but similar
Even though it has been 30 years since3 I last saw the faces of my drill instructors (graduated San Diego, Plt. 2052 Sept. 1979), this still brings chills to me. Although, we never had to drill inside. I feel for the guide having to manuever the guidon in such close confines.
A moment from basic training that is ingrained in my mind is when another guidon bearer messed up a drill movement and his MTI told him that kind of negligence is why 9/11 happened
This brought tears to my eyes. I miss boot camp so much. It was the best period of my entire life. I would do it again tomorrow if I could. Shit i wouls even pay for it!!
Straight Motivating. Almost 10 Years to the Day I was on a Plane headed to Parris Island, SC. SSgt Nichols is one Good to Go Marine and awesome on the Drill Field. Although I'm a Parris Island Marine the Drill Instructors at San Diego are Good to Go as well. Gotta Love our Senior Drill Instructors, Drill Instructors and Leadership Staff with the Various Companies and Battalions on the Depot because they put in a lot of working Training these soon to be Devil Dogs.
SSGT Nichols.. Thank you for your service and making our sons into Marines. Today is T54 for my Son. I am already a Proud Marine Mom. 8 Days til Crucible. Semper Fi
When civilians lol at this they see psycho men screaming at a bunch of impressionable young men but what they don't understand is by the end of training, each recruit would put his life in the line for his Drill Instructor in a heart beat. You have to have strapped on combat boots to truly understand the concept of brotherhood. Just one man's opinion.
I agree. Oct-Dec 73. Plt 395 India Co 3rd Bn Parris Island. Ssgt Stewart, Ssgt Johnigon, Sgt Valentine and Sgt Guest took kids and turned us into MARINES for life. Semper Fi
Very unique training philosophy in the USMC... No question it produces results, but it doesn't necessarily stand above all others in doing so. The Brit RM's produce an exceptional man for the battlefield & they approach things a bit differently... aggressive instruction & rigorous discipline yes, (but not hysteria) - coupled with extremely high expectations & a 'you will be culled from the flock if you cannot meet them' attitude. Not too many other famed units world-wide are as into 'breaking down the individual' to this degree... the Legion comes to mind, except it has reserved the right to inflict physical violence on recruits like the Corp would have done a decade or two ago. Still an extremely proud thing to have earned the title: United States Marine.
The extreme hysteria is to simulate the high stress level of a combat situation. Live fire contact is the most stressful and overwhelming situation you will ever expirence in your life, and even if you're in the marine corps with a non combat MOS every marine is a rifleman first and is trained as a combatant so to deprive them of this hysteria is doing them a dis justice by not simulating the stress of a combat situation
The yelling, screaming, and hysteria is there to train you to ignore it and to continue focusing on the mission. I can’t tell you how many times a loud noise has spooked people around me but someone didn’t affect me at all. That didn’t happen my chance.
The memories of Boot Camp. Platoon 395, India Company, 3rd Battalion, Parris Island Oct-Dec 1973. Thanks Ssgt Stewart, Ssgt Johnigon, Sgt Valentine and Sgt Guest, took boys and turned us into Marines.
Or “ears! you guys want to play fuck fuck games right? Freek what I got to say right? Great I will freekin’ have each and everyone of you recruits outside at 9pm in your skivvies setting up the mini grinder until it’s dadgum freekin time for morning chow, you understand?”
What you don't see in this video is everytime someone fucks up, quarter deck. Someone doesn't react quick enough, quarter deck. You do it right, quarter deck. Lmao
That was always a sweat box in there and man did they thrash us on the mini grinder. I remember they would shut all the windows and doors with no air circulating it seemed like hours in there. Then getting called up to the quarter deck Becuase your arms were so tired you messed up port arms or something. Miss the memories
Mini-grinding. Doing this for 4 hours in a day is a kind of mental exhaustion I can not describe. When I was in Delta Co, it sucked. When I was hurt and returned to training with Lima Co, it sucked harder.
Drilling inside was always more intense for us than it was outside the DIs used to compete with each other to see which platoon was better 1045 smooth sexy heels bravo company bravo nation
JohnnyRebKy I'm sorry to hear man. There are many other meaningful endeavors in life that are worthy of pursuit and offer much fulfillment. You gave it your best but the circumstance was out of your control it sounds like.
+JohnnyRebKy Don't sweat it brother. I know a former recruit who didn't make it and he is now a high ranking member on the Department where I work in another uniform (hint hint). And another one that made Sergeant. Both didn't make it through boot camp for one reason or another. That does not stop you from becoming successful with the rest of your life. Marine Corps is just a snap shot of your life. I regret not making it to Calif state wrestling tournament when I was in High School my senior year. There is always something we regret. Life moves on. Never quit! Semper fi...
This is platoon 1074 charlie company 1st battalion. senior drill instructor staff sgt rivera. Drill Instructor Sgt Rodriguez. Drill Instructor Staff Sgt. Millburn. Drill Instructor Sgt. Nichols. The year was 2002. Graduated July 2002.
My Drill Instructors made us count in our heads so the sounds and movements would be the same. I still remember drilling for hours to try and win the final competition.
Cardiac hill...ahhhhh...such fond memories. Makes me wanna fly back to "the stumps" and run it for old times sake. Don't forget the sand monster, a.k.a. "sugar cookie!" My sweat is in that sand! Ooh-Rah brother Corpsman...you were with us every step of the way. Semper Fi.
Not all discomfort makes a man a better soldier. When you send them into the trasher, it is for a specific purpose. I'm not 100% familiar with their training regime, but I feel fairly sure that they are going through a fine program of pain and fun as well :)
DI: Oh!! You wanna play games BroaddASS (what one of my kill hats called me)? Go grab your footlocker!!! Right Shoulder......Hoooh!!! Port.....Hooo!!! Left Shoulder....Hoooooh!!! Ah.....boot camp in the 80s was so much fun.
the point of the screaming is to get you use to high intensity situations. They train your for the worse situation you could be in I.E firefight where you are surrounded, and its so loud you cant even hear your self think. They teach you to be able to be in this situation, and not freeze up.
To be fair, yelling at someone for not catching a ball, is a little different than yelling because your "move fasters" were slightly crooked.. One makes sense, the other requires patience and keeping your head cool while fixing the entire bay because of your 1 mistake, all while pushing..
Once I got used to it, I sort of enjoyed yelling back and forth with my DIs. I really had fun when 4 or 5 would all hound around me and start screaming at me.
Yup! Its called a sir sandwich. Drill Instructor Sgt Woods usta always say,"You better be puttin 2 slices of sir on my sandwich boy or we'll play fucking games!"
Im still in the army and Marines are so disc is unreal. I hang with SEALs and RECON Marines but man the the smell of a Drill Instructor they go into some sort of LOck-Up mode.
Good to go SSGT Nichols. I only hope all the JROTC kids save their critical comments about drill since this is not final drill but just another day in training for the day it counts.
I wish I could’ve been able to go through boot camp but unfortunately Uncle Sam didn’t think I should and DQ me twice. So I became a fire fighter instead I love the thrill of the job but I hate wondering what could’ve been.
That was great! I am I the NJROTC and can you put up a video on how to drill a squad and shinning shoes? I am a PO3 advancing for a PO2 position and that will really help me out. If you don't believe me I can recite the 11 general orders to the sentry.
Do you still put the trophies in the squad bay portholes? We had all of the trophies, drill, PFT, rifle, pugil sticks and boxing gloves. We lost both prac trophies though. We could run, fight and shoot, but we were the rocks. This was in 1994, when we still boxed in boot camp.
I believe that was their response to him, but you are not suppossed to give the proper greeting of the day while in formation anyway...especially drill formation.
Good luck man, I went to boot camp november 26th of last year, been in schooling for about a year now. If you got any questions inbox me sometime i'll be glad to answer anything! Also MoS?

Not weird at all, I know the feeling a lump in the throat I too remember arriving what seemed like midnight at MCRDSD 1975 I was 19.
1:25, when the guidon slipped I was expecting unholy hell to be unleashed LMAO
He was lucky the DI didn't see.
Trust me. They understand that the guidon is going to slip on that linoleum. Plus the SDI is going to work with the guide on his movements more than the J is. They won't really mess with the guide unless he really fucks the movement up.
OOOOOHHHHH WEEEEE!!!! I thought it would have been hell to tell the captain myself!!!
I thought the same thing.

Just graduated boot camp 6 days ago. Nothing's changed! "So fuck me right?" Was one of their favorite phrases.
What you don't see in this video is everytime someone fucks up, quarter deck. Someone doesn't react quick enough, quarter deck. You do it right, quarter deck. Lmao
Man!! I can't wait, just 3 more years!! Getting chills that make it feel like my hair is going to pop out.
Did it happen
Why in the world do I miss this...?
Josh Jucius i feel the same way
Josh Jucius Lol...cuz we're always Marines! I miss it even more now that my son just enlisted, headed to PI 6 days after her graduates.
Bro if we were back in the mini grinder we wouldn’t miss it anymore.
Comfort sounds nice but it will always grow stale

Oh god, I used to hate those inside the barracks drill and drill in general.
Good to go SSGT Nichols. I only hope all the JROTC kids save their critical comments about drill since this is not final drill but just another day in training for the day it counts.
Brought me right back!
was this filmed in 2004? was part of Mike company..Mighty Mike!
I wish I could’ve been able to go through boot camp but unfortunately Uncle Sam didn’t think I should and DQ me twice. So I became a fire fighter instead I love the thrill of the job but I hate wondering what could’ve been.
That was great! I am I the NJROTC and can you put up a video on how to drill a squad and shinning shoes? I am a PO3 advancing for a PO2 position and that will really help me out. If you don't believe me I can recite the 11 general orders to the sentry.

Why are they not doing this in the sandy pit instead of in the comfort of the barracks? I guess times have changed.

Do you still put the trophies in the squad bay portholes? We had all of the trophies, drill, PFT, rifle, pugil sticks and boxing gloves. We lost both prac trophies though. We could run, fight and shoot, but we were the rocks. This was in 1994, when we still boxed in boot camp.

I believe that was their response to him, but you are not suppossed to give the proper greeting of the day while in formation anyway...especially drill formation.
I'm not sure about marine corps or marine boot-camp, but aren't you not supposed to let your instructor break ranks unless he says breaking ranks?
happen to me too. except during the marching rifle manuel. i forgot about the bolt and i accidently sent it home.
@gsxr1000504 Dont get injured because despite what you may hear they will keep you on depot for over a year if the situation calls for it.
ohhhhhrahhhhh SSGT..motivated video right there
all part of the routine, this way you wont freeze up in a high pressure situation in combat
@nzsmash You address your drill instructors as 'sir' until you become a marine. After that you address them by rank.
