Not from a broken home but my dad used to scream A LOT, after my mother passed away she left him a note to stop, so he slowly did, screams are weak for me now

I think that's less stressful

They yell at you so you get used to work in stressful situations

@@Neptuno1029 How is being yelled at stressful? Its just fucking annoying😂Communication is so important so why shout? You can talk to me normally cant you?

@@jsav6058 being yelled at definitely puts a lot more pressure on you, and most people will panic at first. as you get used to it, you'll probably become calmer during high-pressure situations. if someone were to walk into your room and start yelling at you to get up and get dressed and hurry up and starts insulting you, you'll probably get pretty nervous, but thats what most soldiers probably deal with. though I don't know much about any army(military* thank you for the correction) branches, this is what I assume

Not even you get around 6-8 hours of sleep minus firewatch and special events like night ops and the crucible. It’s the fleet where sleep and 3 meals a day isn’t guaranteed

I was always tired and hungry. 1st 2 days of boot they dont let you sleep

and it is good that they train us that way, ikr, devil? I remember war when we would be eating/sleeping on our own schedule bc if u didn't manage it, you would be dead.

How hard is it to complete marine bootcamp for short 5’4 scrawny dude?

The obstacle course and the humps are more difficult the shorter you are, but by no means impossible.

Did you shine that globe of yours?

If i was 6"5 i think id be more motivated to get ripped. Also i hope youre bones fien. Because the taller you are the more likely it is to get bone cancer.

@@alexanderhamilton4258 I like my globe its shiny

🤣🤣🤣🥺🥺 sorry to hear that hun

I too am 6'5" When one of your DIs is the same size as you expect more intense screaming and quarter decking

Show him the long video! See the top comment. Wonder what your cousin would think of that!

Yep

@@NotWhatYouThink *_Yep_*

Yep

Yep

Either one of those sounds disturbing...

lol

Mre are amazing lmao

So vomit and MREs 🤣

MRE!! You write that all by yourself?

I often tell people if you want to know what Marine boot camp is like, watch "full mtal jacket". Most of us agree it is as close as it comes to the real thing. Although, I didnt think it was that hard. There is lots they didnt show. But gunnery sgt. Hartman is a typical Drill instructor, in my opinion. I served from 82-90.

Thank you both for your service!

I automatically give a pass to all Marines. They usually deserve it.

My man. You know about those metal quonset huts. 😂 Way different time back then.

Same.

I call BS as the recruits running in place weren't bringing knees to palms. Must be MCRD San Diego.

@@kawirocket88when did he say anything about the recruits knee height? He said not having his phone was one of the best things😂😂

@@stephenmcgowan1101 You didn't serve so you wouldn't get it sorry😂

@@kawirocket88 another dude in a wheechair

Lmao

Had a captain in the Corps who was a stocky Italian guy from Jersey. When I was stationed in 29Palms, we would do our 10 mile death run in the desert through tank trails. We would then run to his house where his wife would make us Sausage and peppers for breakfast, then run back.

@@desmondog5622 absolutely cracked me up at the part where his wife made you breakfast 🤣

My brother

@@desmondog5622 10 mile jog or run? Tho I wouldn't be surprised

Even the MREs aren't that bad. The old ones really sucked. I honestly had a blast in army Basic. Got to do all kinds of fun stuff working out, camping and putting rounds down range with a bit of getting yelled at lol

@@zwesch where there you go it's army basic not marines army training is like a vacation

I heard the final test is to eat a 24 Crayola pack

@@Chase-jc7rx I was at fort Benning. I wasnt in infantry school tho. I would have gone to ft Jackson but it was full. Ik we definitely had it easier then the infantry guys. But they just did longer rucks and we're encouraged to settle arguments locked in the barracks. Maybe it was just cuz I enlisted when I was 24 and I had been on the road working for years before so being homesick wasn't a big deal. Not saying it wasn't tough but I made great friends And I look back at it and I grew alot while I was there. And I already loved shooting camping and I've always been athletic.

It's not the hardest part it's the best part.

I always tell people the same. if you were at least in decent shape, the physical parts not bad. bonus points if you played hockey, football, rugby etc youll be fine and your into the team aspect and being yelled at and being physical with others isnt something youve never experienced. the thing with the DI's is, theyre unrelenting agents of chaos. that constant pressure with everything can be rough to adjust. but by the end youve learned and grown a ton as a person. youll see your di's not as sadistic sociopaths, but some of the most impressive people youll ever know, . 14 hour days always yelling and running around constantly. for months. I can count on 1 hand the times I saw any DI at mcrd crack a smile. well actually thats not true. occasionally youll catch a sadistic grin as they find a new target and run over to tune them up. theres nothing there scarier that a DI with a crazy grin thats not yelling at you, but whispering in your ear

Hygiene inspection at night was hilarious and a true test of one’s bearing.😂

Real shit ,i they do that on porpouse 😂

And the easiest part to iao

Hes talking about how its the hardest PT of any branch.

Uh, no. The AF is a literal joke... lol.

@@eeee3029 USMC has the toughest basic training, but others have far tougher advance training, like force recon, or rangers.

@@horehoundbasedcandy8736 I dont doubt it but in this case hes talking about baisic training.

My son growing up with me being strict... He said boot wasn't as hard. I went in the Marine Corps 4 yrs before he was born.

@@bethcollier220 well, my older brother is a navy troop but when he stays home a lot, he educated me with many things that I already know but he keeps watching smartphones and play games then education me, he is very strict to me and also my family tired of him.

more like kids who have no respect. I haven't yelled at my parents in years and they're much, *much* easier on me

@@josephkony3993 I have respect, but my mom has ambition in spades and literally no forethought or planning. No wonder we have no money.

@@josephkony3993 we have respect to our parents it’s just that if they don’t see you have just A’s they’ll get mad, they’re narcissistic at times too, my mom gets mad at me only for getting mad at work that she yells at me and my sister even though we cleaned the house and everything is the way she likes it. Sometimes it just depends the way your parents were raised to become a different parent or the same as their own parents.

'this isn't even my sock'

Agreed. Bootcamp was more annoying than anything.

Or putting on the whole uniform than stripping because one person missed the count

Always that one kid who always missing some and now you are running across the island to get to chow hall cuz your platoon was putting something on and off (Child Abuse Charlie)

Most difficult part? Try not to laugh. I mean it, DIs are just comedians with a migraine

They are the best.

Guy was talking after CG boot camp and said CG was harder for him than Marine. (An army infantry said same thing) 🤷🤷

Well written. That puts it into a different perspective.

True Brother…so true!👍🏽

Howd you overcome that?

Yet they can't fight on ground without air support to farmers . Strange

@@ShahJee101 difference between training for an environment vs the people who actually live there and know the area like the back of their hand. Plus we weren't prepared for they're tactics. Shouldn't have been there

Ah, thats funny. The Asian kids in my platoon, were the first ones to go awol and run out the squadbay in the middle of the night.

Call him a "boot" and send him dildos to his platoon. The senior drill instructor will love it and find it hilarious.

Almost through? Nice dude, I would consider him done already.

I would say from personal experience Boot camp was mentally tough and physically easy. Officer Candidate School was mentally easy but physically tough. You can actually quit in OCS and be sent off real quick.

@@ryshellso526 what does that mean ik what a dildo is but I mean what’s a boot

@Freedom-1775 Absolutely!! But he has passed away...that's the only reason I said "was".

Lol. I remember jumping out of my bed the 1st night sleeping back at home. I saw pre-dawn light, and I thought I missed Reveille and Count Off. The terror and then the calm realization I'm at mom's house. 🤣

​@@MrStaybrown I did miss reveille and count off once 🤦🏻‍♀️ it was as bad as you could imagine 😂 ITd all day and last watch every night for weeks.

@SusieQ3 🤣👌 I was #7, I remember hearing " Coouunntt !!! Off !!! 1 ! 2 ! And I snapped out of sleep, slipped off the top rack, and hop'd on line just in time for, " SEVEN !!". I saw the quarter deck a few times that day, and company Gunny took me to the pit.🤣 Good times, rahh

Get it all because it will help you later in life.

Your dad is correct

I've heard the exact opposite. Marines tend to separate by race from what I've heard from multiple people.

I went to PI in the 90s and we were all green.

Yep. Basic training is where it all starts.... now 20yrs later I just collect my check 😂😂

@@yootoob2 you deserve that fkg check brother!! Maybe not...😂

Isolation, being yelled at or even being punched and kicked wouldn't be a problem for me, what will fuck me up though is sleep deprivation, that will turn me inside out

Wtf I never got to call home

@@bkboy8259 Guess its different in the Chair Force

@@DeltaFlare987 oh well that makes sense

I was platoon head scribe. I didn't get much time to write letters. I got a phonecall when I arrived and when I shot Expert at the range. I had it pretty easy compared to most recruits though. My folks were cops, and I had camped, hiked, ran x-country, played soccer, swam, sk8ed, and trained martial arts for years already. In boot, I shot Expert and maxed the IST, PFT, and swim qual. I was Platoon Pull-up Stud and Iron Mike in MCT. I almost made E3 in MVOC, but picked it up a short time later. I made E4 meritoriously about a year later, then Company NCO of the year a year later, then a trip to OCS shortly after that.

Y'all got phone calls?...🤣🤣🤣

@@jimhughes1070 only the required ones that were monitored by the DIs and we got a Christmas one because the DIs got drunk and beat the shit out of a few guys so as incentive not to say anything that would have gotten them in trouble we were given "liberties".

@@jimhughes1070 apparently they allow cell phones now, too much of a distraction if you ask me.

@@ReapWhatYaSow Shoulda reported them either way.

@@thesituation5315 reported them to who? Plus, their word versus mine? And labeled a snitch? Too much of a risk and just as one of my buddies took an empty beer bottle to the face, so would have I. But that was the least of the crazy shit. My Senior showed up on an off day, put a ka-bar in a buddies hand and told him to try and stab him. My buddy dropped his mop, ran to the chow hall and got another DI. My buddy was scared shitless (the situation did mess him up mentally and he was kicked out in MCT).

😂

Same my older brother. He was small and skinny so he got double rats but had to literally swallow everything one or two chews and that's it. I was Charlie company platoon 1085 summer 05. Semper Fi bro

Joins Marine ‘Corps’ so you were never in!!

First it's the Marine CORPS! And second, no you can't do that, you don't have any "personal time". Wimp. Parris Island, 1967. Semper Fi to all my Marine brothers and sisters!

Damn! How’d it work goin in already knowing?

@Hey-dj4mz 90% google. I watched the Corps get softer and softer every sing day I was in. (No matter how hard I tried, I could not get them to hit me) I would recommend you stay as far from the military as you can. Unless you suffer from a particular brand of mental illness, or are one of those that think they can change something.

Fortunate son intensifies

Why would you enlist when they’re only fighting for rich people to stay rich

Tell me how's the taste of crayons eh

@@khalon4993 we're not rich pal

Checkout this boot. How long have you been in the fleet? A week?

@@blank_801 😂 someone's in their bleed. Calm down Deborah.

Yeah, nobody thinks about what happens after bootcamp. Sht gets real.

@@blank_801 PT may be different in his unit than your unit. My unit was doing log runs mixed with Indian runs and stuff. Then on deployment, we did simulated operations where you ran the inner perimeter of the base, you catch a casualty and load him on a gourmet and ran a mile or so with that guy, and then a poker chip run where in order to complete it, you had to collect all the poker chips. It was brutal. Then the shamrock PTs. I wasn’t too bad at PT luckily. It was the hikes that were my enemy for the first few months in the fleet. I’m 5’6, one of the shortest in the company, probably battalion, with a 249, A-Bag with spare barrels and mortar gear hiking from the barracks to the MP ranges. But eventually I got real good, good enough to actually get away with smoking a cigarette while hiking in the rain. Then it’s all over pretty quickly (feels long as hell) and you’re at home in the real world again.

@@doubleemcastillano464 How is the transition back into the real world?

Yes, then we had to get a second haircut right before we left. It can’t touch the collar.

The real question is why we dont shave the lemon as well

my average day serving/bartending is more stressful than my average day in the marines

I like to imagine a universe were basic training is just doing customer service calls

What do you mean

Pure hell is what P.I. is. It's true that some recruits flipped out and tried to run away. They were caught in the water trying to swim to Hilton Head. Another female that I knew in another platoon... she ran for the front gate twice and out ran the other Marines. Never made it thru the gate but she did graduate. She was the fastest runner these Marine males had ever seen for a female. Other males and females have jumped from second floor decks and up trying to die. We had a female that tried to cut her wrist. Our drill instructor went slam off on her. She just had a moment happening to her. She graduated also. No one really truly knows stress until you go to Marine Corps boot camp. I've never ever in my entire life regretted going.

@@bethcollier220 We had this one guy that tried to run like 3 times and we ALL got in trouble for it! Like how are the girls responsible for this. We don't live in the barracks with him. Lol. His roommates gave him a "blanket party" when he was returned to the unit. Basic training was rough 😬

@@yootoob2 what went down in the "blanket party"? Did they beat him up

@@DLI002 Maybee... 😀
