Rarest Marine Corps Cadence: OLD FAITHFUL 

MCRD San Diego 1956-57..you? SF..

It definitely gives you chills, makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up and a true feeling of pride doesn’t it. It is hard to believe how much Boot Camp and the Corp has changed over the years. Now they are once again reducing the size of our beloved Corp. I even read in one news item that the Sec of Defense wanted to eliminate the Corp completely. That would be a very sad day for America! SEMPER Fi

You are old Corps sir! Semper fi 0321 ...1973...81

Have you ever met a Marine who doesn't know who Chesty Puller was?

I believe I was born to be a Marine it is my destiny I still proudly serve today even though I'm a veteran, by the way I'm looking to see if anyone from my original outfit is still ticking 2nd 175MMArtillery Camp Lejuene NC. If you are give me a shout back my email is tommymc4753@gmail.com Semper Fi

O... O.. O...HEY HEY HEY!...

Hey Megan, you made my day, I like your dad's thinking, my grandchildren grew up hearing 1st: JESUS Loves you ; 2nd 'zuma song Marine Corps hymn. My son's also, youngest son a Marine also! Fantastic

Ah oo rah

Oorah

Me too Megan. I was listening to this and I was thinking I was the only one in the world this brought my childhood memories back. My dad was in the marines before I was born and we lived at Camp Lejune.

Once a Marine. ALWAYS a Marine.

Was? ALWAYS. But I understand.

My grandfather was a marine stationed in Japan he got dishonorable discharge after 2 years. My dad became a army officer since he felt like since his father had bad conduct in the USMC but before he wanted to get some exercise so he became a merchant marine and when he was 18 he enlisted in the army when he was a specialist he was sent to Iraq served 2 phases in Iraq and 5 more deployments. When he was 22 he became a lieutenant then he was sent to Poland and when he was a first lieutenant he was sent to 4 more countries. One war zone others are normal deployments. SEMPER FI, THIS WELL DEFEND, ACTA NON VERBA

Okinawa? Salute. From the position of attention.

Semper Fi - PI 1969 Platoon 2047 Always Proud!

Its a love hate relationship lol. I was 18 when I went to boot just a young shit head. Lol went to Ramadi Iraq in 2004. By the time 2006 came around I think I had enough. But I miss it as I've gotten older and would do it all over again if I could. Changed me forever

@@boostmode84g83 thanks for your bravery, sacrifice and service❣️🙋🇺🇲

Thank you for your sacrifice and service❣️🙋🇺🇲

@@boostmode84g83 I was never deployed to Ramadi But Jocko Willink was and he has a lot to say about it as a former Navy Seal. You might find some peace in those podcasts.

@ M20L35 Thank you for your service! A personal question of mine to you, Did you rejoin in 83 because of/or in part by the Reagan Administration? If not, what made you decide to?

I can relate to this. I wasn't a fan either, but now I've learned so much about the Marine Corps since my son became a Marine.

OORAH!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Your dad has spread his love to THOUSANDS of sons. You, therefore, have thousands of Brothers. Marine Drill Instructors are the Premiere Humans, Of Earth! Having been separated from the Corps for 30 years, I haven't met a more impressive, decent and Honorable person, than a USMC Drill Instructor. Hopefully, you have only seen this part of Your Father. Much continued success to You and Yours. Semper Fidelis, Sir.

Some words of knowledge from an old D.I. to you.....KEEP YOUR EYES AND EARS OPEN AND YOUR FUCKING MOUTH SHUT!! .....unless your are asked to speak!! Good luck and stay strong!!

@@09jitters lol unless he wants to get popped in the stomach because of the hilarious shit you guys say to some of the goofy recruits. Ahaha

SEMPER FI CADET.

Thank you. For going in marines. They know how to bring the best out of young men

Well understood. Tried 3 to 4 years ago. Cadence in my head. Bad knee was good to go. Good knee said nope. Bummed me out bad but it's all good.

I am a 1980s marine lot better than 2023

not very Marine Corps of ya. Think you should read some Chesty quotes about Marine breeds.@@Pokey324

Lunzie, I agree with you. The Old Corps was completely gotten rid of by 1975. I was Old Corps of the Vietnam Era ! Your husband went in one year before the infamous Tet Offensive, a real nightmare for all branches and where Marines shined despite their dificulties. I salute you for what all you went through while he was absent. The Corps has gone straight downhill after Nam. I would not share the same foxhole with a modern Marine any day of the week. God bless you ma'am, I pray your husband survived and came back home !

ME TOO! Plt 1041

I was at MCRD San Diego in 1984 Platoon 3096. Loved running to these!

HAPPY 248TH!!! HOORAH!! SEMPER FI!!

Dear john: bull shit .the marine corps would not allow five combat tours in vietnam. The marines MIGHT allow two combat tours. After two tours you would be a jelly donut and need someone to talk too. Stop trying to impress your grand children and chicks at a bar. Semper fi. 1963.

Thank you sir

beautiful sentiment! thank you.

Semper Fi devil dog! Thank you for your service and motivation.

73 and 5 tours?....Oops on me, you made that statement 1 year ago, no more ?mark only apology for questioning. Semper Fi

Same for me & I'm 67.

Keep on listening to this and you will join the Corp!

From running to cadence to actually join is a foregone conclusion, my brother. ahah

1957 for me from San Diego. Running and marching with cadences is a dim memory now. Thinking back after listening to these cadences made me puff up this old chest and remember my Corps days. 1956-1977. Will go west as Marine forever. Semper Fidelis!!

I'm a former Marine and an Italian American. Giovanni Basolini. RIP

@@markriley8405 Semper Fidelis my Marine iwas borne to be a Marine, I tried getting into the Corps when I was 17, but my parents wouldn't let me, they wanted me to finish high school, which I did,I enlisted in my father's birthday I was delayed enlistment I also was in the PLC program when I graduated Boot camp I was already a,PFC not too many back in the day came out with rank, I earned all my rank meritoriously, and was appointed by Congress the rank of Ssgt the only I had to 11 months before I received my final rank, the reason I got out was because I felt mine time was coming meaning death that's why today I'm still and retired from a government job

@@tommymcallister9585 when was that? And semper fi

I served from September 1974 until September 1980

Give me another 5 for Chesty Puller ya old Jarhead. OORAH

How'd that go

@@jacksonturner7838 🤣

Would someone tell the guardsman that he cannot JOIN THE SEALS. He must leave the national guard. Join the NAVY and then be accepted into buds. I address this later in the comments section. Another flake. No wonder don Shipley has so many headaches. Semper Fi .1963.

I wonder if the guardsman made it thru buds. Ha ha

Yes indeed.

Get some

I missed my fucking chance because I'm a fucking idiot. All's left now is to ride out life until I kill my fucking self :D

@@saveamericatv3964 Lol fr? Wtf happened?

Brothers the powers that be are afraid to send old leather necks back into combat. It would be scorched earth. The older I get the less I seem to be able to tolerate stupid shit. We have lived our lives and it is much better to go out on your feet side by side with our fellow Marines then warm in your bed. I pray for peace but keep my powder dry.

I enlisted in the Marines when they still had the draft. One of my buddies at my permanent duty station was drafted. When the draftees in his group were gathered together selections were made as to which draftees went into the Marines by lining them up and every tenth one was to be sent to the Marines. He did a quick count and saw he was going to be selected so he quickly switched places with the guy next to him. When it came for the Marine draftees to step forward one of the guys in charge looked at the guy my buddy switched with and said, "You look too small to go into the Marines," and then he selected my buddy instead to replace him. Boy was he pissed.

A buddy of mine in the Marine Corps then a Master Sergeant always joked with me reminding me he was drafted in the Marines.@@keithpopko2540

The day has finally arrived he will be leaving tomorrow
