In this powerful video, former U.S. Marine Austin Hancock shares a chilling tale from his boot camp, experiences with drill instructors, and much more. As an Anti-Tank Assaultman who served from 2006 to 2010, Austin witnessed a shocking moment when a recruit attempted to take his own life by jumping out of a third-story window. What followed was a reaction from a Drill Instructor that left Austin stunned.
Austin's story delves into the intense and often brutal reality of Marine Corps boot camp, where recruits are physically and mentally pushed to their limits. He describes the Drill Instructors as "salty bastards" who have been through the most demanding challenges the Marines have, including combat deployments and earning prestigious awards like the Purple Heart.
Through his gripping narrative, Austin sheds light on the extreme pressure and psychological toll that recruits face during their training, which can sometimes lead to drastic actions like the one he witnessed. His account also highlights the complex and often controversial role of Drill Instructors, who mold raw recruits into battle-ready Marines.
As you watch this eye-opening video, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and sacrifices that Marines like Austin endure during their service. His story is a testament to the resilience and fortitude required to make it through one of the world's most demanding military training programs.

@@JoshuaDavoli Combat is combat no matter who you are with. When you are in the middle of it is just as bad as what the Marines are doing. Getting hit won't hurt any less because you are a Marine, although a lot of them want you to believe that! I was in a Cav. unit. A little different than the Average ground pounder. It seems like in the Cav you do a little of everything. Especially if you were a scout. I was a Nuclear, biological and chemical warfare specialist. I was in a recon platoon. We did a lot of scout work and did it better than the guys who were scouts by MOS. We beat them at ranges all the time! Good times!!!

You're speaking truth. My husband's good friend was in at that same time at MCRD. Took a flying squirrel kick to the chest by a DI, was regularly elbowed, and even said aDI put a kids head through a glass window (the kids got all cut up, and when the higher ups investigated, the DI's told the kid to say he slipped and fell through the glass). For better or worse, the Moms of the Marine Corps organization seem to have simmered things down greatly since then, he said.

Had a guy hang himself when i was in Army basic in 1983. The private on fire watch found him and ran to wake up one of our drill instructors. The drill instructor stood there looking at him hanging for probably 10 seconds, seemed like forever, then told a couple of us to untie him. He was fucking blue but still breathing. A few other drill instructors came in and carried him away and that's the last we saw him.

My Cousin joined army 2001 immediately post 9/11 I think he was in Fallujah with 10th mountain. Probably not as deep and combat heavy as the Marines but Ive never really spoke to him much about his time in combat other than about his 2 purple heart wounding incidents. One from a mortar blowing a sand bag into his head and another from a really massive Car Bomb IED that hit his Humvee. They said it was basically a miracle the 4 guys survived. He was passenger seat and it blew up on the drivers side from maybe 1-3 road lanes away. Car filled with multiple rigged artillery shells. He did 2 tours in Iraq and 2 in Afghanistan. He got out in O8 or 09. The guys who came back from those early days like him but stayed longer were probably battle hardened savages and probably raised some tough soldiers but used some questionable means to do so. A lot of them were probably fucked up from their experiences too and what they saw probably desensitized them to the recruits complaints and underperforming during trainin and they had zero tolerance.

He chose to traumatize those around him and force some random corpsman to clean him up, he's not to be respected, he was a liability and a danger to his own. Now, boot camp is designed to train people to perform a job under extreme mental and physical stress, it is not for everybody or even most people. It demands so much because the enemy will demand even more, so there is zero point in pretending any of this is wrong because it's not. The standards need to be high and the experience brutal because war is going to be significantly worse than anything the DI can throw at them. Nobody is forced to be there, anyone can leave at any time and it's fine to do so, nobody is going to think less of somebody that admits it's not for them. The worst thing that possibly could and now has happened is taking all of this away as then you get ineffective troops that will fold under fire and have wasted precious resources on creating a civilian militia instead of a professional force of warriors.

Kevin Wilson is correct; he knew what no one told me in college: That veterans are also people who do not go to conflicts--I did not know that until now. I got a recent side-eye from someone about this (the last legitimate side-eyes given were from Prince--where you get decently, silently patronized nowadays, who knows, but it's probably not in Minnesota). As far as I knew, veterans were people who go to wars (or "near them," anyway: we went to Desert Storm but saw no oil abused, that's because we were so far away from the excitement it was a joke--as a result, I still do not consider myself a veteran and never will--there is no comparison to Tarawa and Desert Storm--there is also no comparison to catching a cab in Fallujah and Desert Storm). Anyway, I was unaware of that until just a minute ago (which still doesn't make much sense to me--what's the big deal about doing four years at Lejeune or at Ft. Bragg--how a half-baked enlistment--like the majority of them are, qualifies you as a veteran remains beyond me but it apparently does qualify you). I thought Wilson was selling people in CA and elsewhere a pile of hooey--it is unfortunate that I have found that to be common so am always skeptical when I think I smell something--that added to the problem, my perception and assumptions based on past claims of others but my being wrong was also clearly a factor; in fact, someone else claims we went to Iraq but you can tell in photos we had a good time in the UAE--the civilian clothes and bags of KFC ruin "the hardships" we went through on liberty--also in Oman, it's just us, chilling in large groups--fighting holes aren't seen because we rarely dug them; there are no buildings because the Bedouins aren't slackers like us needing shelter; there are also no concerning uni-brows growing on future, amateur airline pilots who are also passersby; everyone also comes back alive with all their extremities--not one chocolate chip was lost--the only terrorist was our platoon sergeant but he was a good terrorist so wouldn't have fucked-up necessary ordinance (that were meant for other people--not his people as a result of red wires accidentally touching that other red wire). We also didn't fight the Bedouins occasionally seen in photos of "Iraq"; they were the neighbors with better things to do, so we never even learned their names (the only conflict worth a flip was laundry duty on ship--people fought over that because laundry duty was so skate, victory was sweet).

If you fold in training, when there are safety rails a mile wide, then how can that same person face combat without it's unpredictability, chaos and savagery? It may not be appealing, it may seem barbaric to the outside, but the Corps deals with these things through application of discipline. In 2006, I was leading Marines in combat, and it was a singular honor. Semper Fidelis.

What he says about looking for the fight while you are punching a clock leaves a guy with his tank half full. I went from a super kinetic deployment to a jobsite and it wasn't good. I was fortunate to meet the right people and got on a great path but it's hard to say killing people is a great thing but battle is highly addictive and you need to find an outlet quickly upon departing active service. This brother did it right and is living proof you do not have to have an MBA to be successful but you have to go get it!!!

I struggle with the repeated reference to being a "man", and how that seems to describe something more than your male genitalia? I don't understand this and I had a similar background, only I didn't join the service I went to drug rehab and just straightened myself up with no further help than just wanting to be a law abiding citizen. If I could point to 2 differences between myself and this story is that I never like to physically fight, so instead of focusing on physical strength I just got a gun and everyone left me alone because they knew I was packing heat in school at age 16 to 17 yo. I grew up in Chicago is the other difference instead of Oklahoma small down and I deal smoke with hardened criminals not college punks, so I was well aware of what a real murderer looks like, but in all this I never considered myself as aspiring to be a "real man"? What defines this other than one's genitals?

I being a smart ass, I asked are we going to thrown the grenades or talk about feeling. Well I did either, I got smoked by Dill Instructors laughing their ass off.
