Infantry Marine Course 

lol

Facts

Lol hopefully

Train like that just to field day and have balls to 2

Hey don’t you dare disrespect the life of the logbook I’ve had the best naps on duty

I came straight to the comments to see if there was any word about the army’s BS woke propaganda videos

Marines won't be far behind, this woke ideology is everywhere and people aren't doing much to stop it

@@spike9768 there's no way the Marines will fuck that up after the Army

Army of "WTF" - Semper Fi

@@brandonouellette1536 You're just wrong about that. Americans need to adopt some real convictions if we don't want this country to descend further into hell. Right now these anti-white and anti-christian sentiments are running unopposed in our major institutions.

The training is definitely a lot more better

As a former 0331, way better than Army.

Yea you’re dumb as hell too. Both the Army & Marine infantry has great warriors . To say you “trust” one over the other is kinda cheap tbh

@@Lurkartiist Marines had to teach the army how to storm Normandy sooo

@@MicahNstuff army had to teach the marines how to retake Fallujah sooo

Can’t be an old salt dog without mentioning iron sights. S/F

eeeeerehhh

0311 and 0326 semper Fi Devil

You ain't old, you're just seasoned.

You couldn’t help yourself, had to mention the iron sights 😄 Semper fi brother

Combat with a mop?

@@wildbill9544 No. An M249, M240B, the occasional M2 and a few times with a MK19.

Semper Fi bro. I served 76-82. The Corps still trains the most important weapon system of all: the mind. We use doctrine, but we also depend on fluidity and thinking outside the box.

@@rossbabcock2974 "Fluidity"

@@rossbabcock2974yep. The corps has the best brain washing and indoctrination out of all the branches which makes us fearsome.

Semper Fi from a brother geezer!

0311 ITB should be the new MCT- without the rocket portions of the POI. Other than that, USMC pogs are going to need more AND better provisional 0311 refresher training as part of FD 2030. Distributed, low signature, highly technical combined arms amphibious/ air assault/ motorized and limited SOF capable troops are going to need competent non-combat support. Different and higher standards now exist for combat support jobs in the form of the MSPS, which could be compared to the Australian RAR's Infantry PESA test. Even so, more provisional rifleman refresher training is needed. Convoy defense, Tower Defense, security patrols, hand and arm signals, tactical communications, first aid, naaic m240 knowledge, select designated marksmen, double the number of 09XX training instructor mos billets to each company, double the number of docs to each Marine Platoon (not triple) and request that the Navy establish a permanent Greenside NEC, ecp's, vcp's, combat marksmanship, fire team and squad defensive t&r tasks, intermediate swim qual, etc.

@@cm-pr2ys I completely agree, and POGS need sustainment of that throughout enlistment in my opinion.

Bro whatchu mean, I prefer the gen 2 flaks than the new lasercut bs and my unit still doesn't have hi cuts. We have to use side sappis now which are dumb because you're more likely to get shot with them but survive and without you're less likely to get shot but also less likely to survive. I'll take the latter. Only thing new we got is M27s and I think peq16s, still use pvs14s, still use rcos, its pretty much the same. You know we poor man

@@yakamashi8211 idk my old unit is decked out, and ye we used side sapis 2014-2018 it all depends on unit SOP tbh. 2/4 didn’t use them, but they made us use everythint in 2/5 lol. Coolest thing I had was m27 cus we were one of the first marines to get them

Did they say what they did exactly?

@@user-ms3bl1sk1f When I went through(within the last 6 months) graduation requirements were a 20K ruck march, 1st Class PFT/CFT, WSI qualified, 0311 MSPS and completion of the final WAREX

@@user-ms3bl1sk1f15 more weeks of hell.

Rahh

That's highly debatable.

@@jlbush8249 Nope now they are increasing the gear and standards. Also they are trying to turn Infantry into commandos.

Recently promoted to 1sgt. He helped write out a lot of this course. I’d gladly serve under him in any unit.

Me too man maybe ill see you at bmq

Good luck

Work on your PT, that's the single best thing you can do to prepare. When I went through my training back in 2008, there was limited spots on a Battleschool courses, so who went on course and who didn't came down to a PT competition. Good luck troop. Pro Patria

Enjoy it.

Ay God bless ya brother!

This is bidens america! The more causalities the better

I went through 96-2000, and realized changes happen. Hind site..absorb it, embrace it, adapt, and run with it. It's already stamped, signed and dated. The best NCO's don't complain in the presence of non-nco's, because Good In-Good Out, Bad In-Bad Out. Semper Fidelis

@@SteveVi0lence idiot Biden has nothing to do with this

@@gabenewell3955 why do you think llyod Austin has been so public? Who do you think wants llyod Austin in the spotlight The fools in charge of leaving behind our equipment

0341 from '72-'76. We trained at San Onofre for about 10 weeks. I was a forward observer my last year and a half, usually out with Alpha 1/8 from Camp Geiger. I enjoy seeing the Corps continuing it's creed, every Marine a rifleman.

All Weapons MOS’s go to follow-on training after IMC, that hasn’t changed

Good luck!

You’ll hate it when get there

No you haven’t been training for it. You don’t train, they train you

Im leaving on monday for boot camp whats your ship date,

@@footlettuce1950 I won’t be leaving until august. I’m trying to get in a more better shape before I leave. I’m in great shape now but I want to extra prepare before I go. 🙏🏻 hope to meet you in the future brotha. 🤝

Nah if you’re an 03 you’re gonna retire as LCpl 🤣

@@Khonic23 why is that bad? Never served.

@@namelessking4146 that’s only an e-3

@@Khonic23 you got that right!!

@@namelessking4146 it’s just a joke that a large number of infantry Marines get out after their first enlistment because 1. infantry sucks 2. injuries happen and 3. promotions are limited in an infantry unit

I only know Semper Fi from cod waw lol

@@EmbeddedWithin It's one of the most iconic phrases to say to another marine. Simply translating from Latin as "always faithful". And its full term is Semper fidelis.

@@Nathen_Hari Oh

Semper Fi brother, much love

Thing to not lose sight of in all the wiz bang new fangled tech approach.. you have to train out the weakness, the quit in people . Id like to be a fly on the wall watching the new training techniques, but I'd still take the old ways before stress cards and , " ohh im sorry, does pfc Schmuckatelli need a safe space? "

How is it? I went thru in 2014 so of course we didn't do any of this shit or get treated like adults.

Do y’all get to wear the ropes still? Also if you’re in 2nd platoon tell Sgt Kosek I said hi

New flaks,Kevlars, M27s with suppresors and SCOs. Its pretty nice not gonna lie.

@@nead6713 noice. It was nuts in 06-07. I was in scout section with a suppressed M4, ACOG with red dot, peq15, PVS14s. The Marines I was working with had PVS7s, A4s with irons, and clapped out SAWs from the Gulf War. I was shocked. Should've been corrected a long time ago, but better late than never for sure.

@@trashpanda314 I think we have the better shit now lol, High Cuts and all

@@nead6713 maybe than a leg unit. There's only 5 Airborne Infantry brigades in the Army and we/they have always got issued the high speed shit first in the regular Army. 82nd has had the new thermal ENVGB nods for a minute, on top of all the other new high speed sensors, optics, etc. Also the new 6.8mm next gen weapons will be coming online. It's just a numbers game, and the Army has a massive budget compared to the Marines depending on the Naval budget.

@@trashpanda314 Were just the shock troops of the DOD, Plus we aint going anywhere spicy anymore

I’m related to Davy Crockett by blood

@@RockyMountainWest13 Davy Crockett died a coward.

Because they are unicorns.

No its not I see them all the time

I feel like it’s dependent on the MOS

I saw the most unicorn of all yesterday, saw a 5 and I was bumfuzzled

Your mind would be blown seeing a WOBC or IWOC class🇺🇲🤘🏻

Yeah dude you’ll love it, I was in the recent cycle and I was kinda bummed when I found out I was doing the new, longer POI but that was before I realized the dope ass training I’ll be doing! Plus you get to wear cool ropes with your cammies kinda like how recon does! If you have any questions about it let me know brother - 2nd Plt / 2nd squad

@@doughnutz398 i have a question brother, what swim qual is required for infantry going to IMC or ITB, is it just the basic swim qual like in bootcamp or do they need basic plus or intermediate? Thank you!

@@anthonysilva8686 Basic graduating Boot Camp, ITB will have you do WSI before graduating the new course

Bro you're making sense stop it ok you know we don't do that

It’s a cool fucking gun to shoot, but your instinct was correct, not worth shooting it 😄

If you’re in your 30s the French foreign legion will take you. If you’re younger then you could get a waver. If you’re older 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@johncalabria1607 Navy takes until 39.

@@johncalabria1607 But, I have to wait a year.. complications arose in my life... forever poor.

@@Rain-Orca aren’t we all bud, aren’t we all. Military won’t make you rich either unfortunately. But hey, if you do manage to get in soon, at least you’ll retire in your 50s with a pension. I don’t know the circumstances of why you have to wait a year, but better to have served and hated it then to have never and regret it

I suspect that you will find that they have made it an environment where more of them are able to successfully complete the training... Is that tougher, doubtful. Of course, the question remains, does this training create better Marines versus the previous training paradigm? Well, we'll see the results on the battlefield at a later date. There are strong feelings on both sides of the debate. I know how I feel about it, but that opinion certainly doesn't matter.

@@mpeugeot opinions can be valuable if backed by fact. That being said the Marine Corps must do this to create a truly legit "elite". Being trained as nothing more than a glorified infantry service will not do. The Army has plenty of infantry. These young men are dying to be in an elite and they'll do the work...if their leaders but have a bit of faith in them and their willingness.

@@Tommy1977777 I agree that the training must be challenging in order to create an elite fighting force. If anyone can complete the training, it will lose value, there is nothing elite about anything that everyone is guaranteed not to fail at. Unfortunately, it sounds like they are attempting to ensure that everyone is going to succeed in the training environment. Might as well hand out participation trophies, if that is the case. That would be an ill-advised strategy for an ultimate activity where second place means not coming home alive.

@@mpeugeot agreed but training just the infantry shouldn't be that difficult. We already do much harder training between all other Special Ops units combined which numbers in the thousands. So training infantry Marines to be a notch higher in difficulty shouldn't be difficult. We already train in different environments.

@@Tommy1977777 there is a lack of stoicism and resiliency that has become more and more common over the past decade across the military in general and even within the USMC specifically. The end result of that is a population military service members who are less tolerant of distress and adversity. That may not be a very compassionate or popular perspective, but it is an important point, because growth is more often the product of overcoming adversity than it is from simply achieving success. I appreciate your thoughtful comments, thank you for sharing your perspective.

Enjoy your free time now, though. You'll miss it later.

Spittin facts, smh

Mostly true, my unit saw combat in Iraq in 2016/2017. Inherent Resolve

Yup exactly! It’s been peacetime service along with it becoming softer with PAC culture ruining our military sadly, my buddy was going to join but because of these things, went to the IDF instead, no peacetime
