3:39 I see civilian glasses, m16s with no mags, 2 straps tightly connected to either end of weapon making it inoperable to use as well as holding said weapon incorrectly, sunflower hats as opposed to helmets, backpacks weight like 5 lbs lol as opposed to 90 lbs rucksack, no kevlar and no additional mags. What is this a gay fun run? Go army, where we actually do stuff
What you saw are NOT civilian glasses (Portholes), 2 straps connected to each end of the weapon (operable to use), Boonie Covers traditionally used in the field, and packs that weigh roughly 45-60 Ibs. These marines, at the time in the photo, have gotten through roughly 4.6 up a steep hill. All while being sore from the 54-Hour Evaluation that includes, Multiple Courses, 3-4 hours of sleep a night, and minimal MREs. Easiest part of their entire career.
@@obiwanshinobi8119 sorry bro, it's not combat ready unless u at least got the vest and helmet. I won't even get into the little backpack what a joke, go army
@AnthonySmith-re4jm my man you go up the reaper with 8 blisters on each foot, hungry, sore body and mind from 50 hrs of pain. Then talk that shit, till then stfu
When your son graduated in September? My son graduated the 1st of September of this year at Parris Island, SC. Congrats to your new Marines. I know you are one proud mama and I’m very proud of all young women and man of Marines. We are very proud mama’s. Praying for your son and the family.
i remember on the seeing kilo pick up and my reaction was wow because how many recruits there was in the platoons i went to boot camp in may so there wasnt so many guys being shipped out i was mike co and there was a 30-40 more recruits more in each platoon compared to mine
The Ripper from my experience is not bad at all but the weather conditions sucked. It was raining, muddy boots and everyone was shivering our drill instructor were just trynna go back and relax. Bootcamp is just a flash to me remember stuff here and there.
This was a very motivating video. Even though I already served (0311) this video sent chills. Big challenges are coming, the road is not going to an easy one, we need GOD now more than ever. This is just the beginning, but WELCOME to the (FMF) FLEET MARINE FORCE brother. I wish you all the best and SEMPER FIDELIS!!!
I’m Kilo 3231, I didn’t see myself in this video, but I was there that day. I’m looking for my friends if I could find them. Most of Kilo graduated MCT last week with Fox Co. we’re all in our schoolhouses now. Unless you got RA.
USMC Nov 1983, 3089. Now retired, I work with moms many worries with their son in the FMF. Within the last month, a mom went to see her son, in HI, about 5 years after graduation. She told me she had a basic idea of his improved leadership skills, but could not believe how she was off to the side watching him take total charge of a company formation. She told me she was in total shock how he was so gentle with "his mom", then could turn it up in the formation. The same "momma's boy" clearly had 2 gears to play with at his discretion.
I was with Kilo co. Plt. 3225, graduated last year lol. I also knew your Senior DI but at a brother platoon as a kill hat, he was terrifying as hell from what I’ve heard. Anyways devil try to stay motivated as much as you can throughout your career. Avoid getting complacent and ALWAYS protect what you’ve earned!
My boyfriends mom sent me this video and what can I say my brother was in this specific group seeing him in a third person view is so beautiful and specially the part where it shows my brother and mom hugging in the back definitely brought tears into my eyes not only that but it’s crazy to think that my boyfriend joined us for my brothers graduation and he is in boot camp right now such a beautiful video ❤️❤️
