"Would die at war" is the next line. Always made my heart ache to sing that in basic a think about my family, and i wondered why they would make us say that, but you have to get familiar with those feelings and focus on what's in front of you
They just don’t know how to use their diaphragm yet. Screaming and projecting your voice through your diaphragm are two different things and takes practice to achieve…sorry, I know nobody asked
He isnt just doing a follow order excercise, he's reminding them what they are fighting for, reigniting the passion and flame to keep their families alive, more instructors need to be like this, respect to you Drill Sarge, serve well brother.
My grandpa was a marine, and he told me of one he knew A yellow bird With a yellow bill He sat upon My windowsill I lured him in With a piece of bread And then I crushed his Little head
Brings tears to my eyes because you will never know what happens thank you for your service praying for you for safety and guidance and protection God bless
before the "i left my home" part all the 'left' and 'right' calls matched the foot that was dropping. the way he looks at them after that makes me think he was trying to catch people getting mixed up LOL
Got another one for you.. You had to join the army (You are right) Because you were in debt (You are right) You got student loan (You are right) You left your home (I left my hom) Because you are poor (Because im poor) Rich people use me (Rich people use me) To lead the war (To lead the war) You cant afford to live (You are right) So you had to join army (You are right) And were well brainwashed (You are right) Into thinking killing means defending your cuntry, while your oppoments were brainwashed into thinking they defend their country by killing your side. (You are right) Noone is hero (Noone is hero) Its all propaganda (Its all propaganda) So youre ready (So im ready) To die (To die)
Its a skill you learn when you call cadence like that. I had to learn it too and and it's actually really fun getting the whole unit to repeat anything you say
Except someone in the crowd is completely out of tune and it pisses me off. It sounds like a woman with a voice crack. You can hear it the clearest in the “my mamma cried” line.
I'm so use to saying uncle Allen, I scrolled 5 more comments before my brain went "wait! what? " and then scrolled back to see if this actually said Allen
@@nathanlarosa6729 he meant for the lyrics dummy. Words still mean things. Also, I doubt that, cause I don't think your average soldier is so dumb that he needs the words right and left in his songs to keep a rhythm
EXACTLY what I was thinking, OP! 🤣 Too many young married army dudes out there who go on leave or get stationed somewhere and cheat on their wives. I’ve experienced it! Luckily I found out he was married with kids before I got too close.
When it’s your literal job, it pays to have a good attitude about it. Also, you don’t want to seem like you can’t handle it…not for yourself, but for the soldier on your left and right. You leave and come back as a unit.
We sing about some depressing shit sometimes when marching. But it pumps you up nonetheless. I always loved it when an nco would put their heart into cadence like this drill
It's a specific type of voice that sticks with you. After BCT I went the ROTC route. Came time to take a swim test. I started to freak out at the last dive because I couldn't swim. Actually was a very weak swimmer. We had an airborne instructor who was a DI. All the others couldn't get me to jump. E waltzes in looks up and says, in that voice, "do not refuse the jump". I instantly said "yes drill Sargent" and left into the water. No though. Just heard the voice and said "go go go". I later talked to him and thanked him. He said he wasn't about to let me screw up. I came so far that one part of one bs test wasn't going to stop me. He said sometimes we all just need that one extra push. Learned about myself that day. Then I promptly failed everyone by getting fat and being kicked out because I lacked the propper discipline.
They scream to motivate, direct, and scare you. Military is about killing people and not being killed. You need to be mentally and physically prepared at all times. Thats why they do it.
Legend has it he still doesn't know why he left.😅😅 LOL I remember a very different version of this cadence from basic. 😅 😅 HOOAH My dear Brothers and Sisters regardless of which version you came up with one thing you won't ever forget are these cadences. Bco. 1/22 FA FT. SILL OK -2nd PLT "BUSHMASTERS"- Time on Target!!
@@fate8007 yeah because every single member of the military is responsible for the actions of the people who did that. With that way of thinking you’d be responsible for every negative dumb comment on RU-vid🤣
The rest is: I left my wife , standing at the door, she thought that I, would die at war I left my son, playing in the yard, seeing his daddy leave, made him cry so hard The day I left, I shook my daddy's hand, he said that I, had become a man Oo-ee oo-ee, oo-ee oo-ee, oo--ee oo-ee, to join the army
I can't stand comments like these. Someone gives a good speech and everyone says "MAKE THIS GUY PRESIDENT NOW," when all the person did was give a good speech. Most people sing well. Doesn't mean they're going to make it in the studio. Surely this drill instructor would've tried in the studio over joining the Army if he knew he had the knack for singing. In this thread: triggered betas. 😎
I'm sorry, this comment is actually funny, I dont want people to think that I'm a horrible person and I understand that this is a reality for some, so I apologise
The day I told my mom gnat I read getting deployed to Iraq was probably the worst day of her life to that point. I remember her begging me to find a way out of the deployment.
But that's part of the point, who sing what you are told to sing, it's the army, if you are told to say "I am an idiot" you say it without question, lol just food for thought, but yes that's funny
