SGM Grinch Cancels Christmas for Marines 

Marine Lance Corporal: "hey our morale is so low, at least Christmas is coming up" Sergeant Major: *evil grin*

They do this crap then wonder why everyone gets out after one contract...

This was the highlight of the video: "The only reason that the United States keeps you guys around is because you're like an abused pitbull puppy that we keep on a leash, waiting to release into the wild against our enemies so that you can take out your anger and aggression on them."

As a Marine who was stationed in 29 Palms, I can affirm the statement about where a Marine's dreams go to die is spot on!

So he cancelled Christmas because some junior enlisted Marines were.... Fighting?

2 marines fought during Thanksgiving. Any Marine ever: yeah those are the only 2 that got caught

Probably, that SgtMaj will leave for Christmass two days eralier than the scheduled leave and come back two days after.

He's not cancelling Christmas because they were fighting, he's cancelling Christmas because they got caught. It's the same bullcrap in the Army.

Remember what Chesty Puller actually said. "Take me to the Brig, I want to see the real Marines."

Sgt Maj should stand post with his Marines to show true leadership to his Marines.

"Americans will always do the right thing... after exhausting all of the alternatives."

Chesty - “it is to you, the NCOs who’ll win this war” The modern marine leadership - “welp we made a mistake... fuck it the NCOs can suffer”

The Sargent Major is getting a blanket party in his Christmas stocking this year.

"You can't fight in here, this is the war room!"

Marines: Everyone is going on leave and the barracks will be a ghost town Command: Hmmm.... Sounds like we'll need an increased number of duty officers to ensure good order and discipline! No errors in that logic whatsoever.

"His ribbon rack was one CAR too small." Oh dayum!!!!!!!

I could have sworn that if Marines AREN'T fighting then there is a problem.

Those poor Marines. They deserve to celebrate Christmas too. What’s Santa going to do with all those undelivered boxes of crayons now?

“Abused pitbull puppies”😂😭 Damn Marines.... are y’all okay over there😭

This was my son’s old unit, he says the SgtMaj is a complete douche bag. Pretty legit...

Mess with people's leave and watch your leadership fall apart. Especially when that leave is from 29 stumps. 1 month there was 1 month too much. And that's coming from someone who's been to Ft. Lost in the woods. And can I get an amen on the "Marines fight it's why they keep us around". They even have the name for an NJP that comes from that. It's called a Chesty NJP.

I would love to watch him get in front of Congress and just let him roast every dam person sitting in there.

Stg sometimes in the military it feels like a higher up is like your mom saying “BECAUSE I SAID SO!” When you ask her why you can’t have/do something. They can’t give you a good reason so they just give the “bc I’m the boss and I said no” kinda reason

Army: becoming sensitive Marines: Jesus christ let up a bit

*Marines fight* SGM Grinch: "You can't fight in here, this is the Marine Corps!"

Two Lcpl fighting? Man when I was in the Corps that only happened on days that ended with y.

Thank you for saying what every real Marine is thinking.

“Ramirez, stop celebrating Christmas and take out that helicopter”

"I don't understand why nobody wants to reenlist" - SMG in a few months

We're literally encouraged to fight. As early as school of infantry we were straight up told that if we had problems with each other to use the rain room to fight it out so we could wash the blood away easier. When brass asks about the beaten up face you just say you were practicing MCMAP.

"Take me to the Brig. I want to see the “real Marines" SMAJ needs to hear this.

This is exactly why I'm getting out in 3 weeks after 5 years

*Damn.. He's REALLY pissed off about this one.*

And they wonder why there's such a tragic rate of suicide, depression, and substance abuse

You have one hell of an awesome singing voice, btw. Would genuinely love to hear you sing an actual cover of "You're a mean one Mr.Grinch" lol

I missed this one last year. True story to share: My Navy squadron had the policy that E-4’s and E-5’s could stand watch at the ASDO desk (the main duty desk that is manned 24 hours per day at the squadron). I don’t celebrate Christmas (not Christian). So every year, I would find the duty section that had Christmas day watch. There were three 8-hour shifts. I’d tell that duty section to decide which of those shifts they wanted me to take, and I would volunteer to take that watch for that person on Christmas day. Well, one year I randomly had watch on Thanksgiving Day. Whatever, bad luck. I still did my usual Christmas day thing. The following year, our squadron made it a policy that only E-5’s could be ASDO. No reason, just hey, fuck you PO2’s. The pool of available ASDO watch standers was obviously reduced… a lot! Well, Thanksgiving rolls around, and wouldn’t you know it, I have watch on Thanksgiving Day. In a completely reasonable manner (truthfully, not in any upset kind of way), I approached my duty section leader, an E-6 I knew well, and explained that I had Thanksgiving Day watch the previous year and would like to spend that holiday with my family. I intended to continue my tradition of giving one person the day off on Christmas Day. May I please have my watch switched. His answer was not only no, but fuck you for asking, and then his Chief heard us and told me to go fuck myself to boot… Little did they know that I already had follow-on orders in hand and our Skipper was having rank-by-rank all-hands meetings where we were encouraged to speak respectfully, but openly about our squadron (I can’t remember the term for these meetings). I spent my entire 8-hour watch writing and editing in detail exactly why our squadron had gone down the tubes in the 5 years I had been there, especially if you were an E-5. The short version is that our op-tempo had increased, our deployments were more frequent and longer, the main mission most of us had gone to that squadron for had been voluntarily given away to another squadron so we could spend more time on ships, our leadership had heaped more responsibility on the E-5’s by taking away responsibilities from E-4’s and E-6’s, and our deck leadership weren’t willing to listen to us when we pointed it out (my double Thanksgiving watches a case in point). During that meeting with only our CO and about 20-30 E-5’s the CO asked if anyone wanted to start. I volunteered to go first (I was leaving the squadron in about 3 days!). I stood up with my essay in hand. The Skipper told me I didn’t need to stand. I said, “Sir, I think I should stand for this one.”. I then read my entire essay, which took nearly 30 minutes. At the end the Skipper just stood there like a deer in the headlights. Composed himself, and said, “Does anyone else want to say anything.”. Utter silence. As we filed out, I was complimented by, and every E-5 that passed me stopped to shake my hand. I remembered that lesson when I became an E-6! Long story, but yeah, military shenanigans where they just say, fuck you to the enlisted.

As a Marine Veteran, I endorse this message.

If this dude doesn’t live in the middle of nowhere, his neighbors must hear him filming new videos pretty often lol

Your stuff is so accurate that it surprises me that RU-vid hasn't censored you. This is my favorite channel, and I'm afraid you'll follow my other favorites.

"If you're going to treat your Marines like dung, be consistent and do it all the time. Don't start treating them like noble warriors when you want something from them... like victory." - Dunk's Almanac

Those poor marines they won't get to be gifted their crayons. Get them their crayons

So I know hazing goes in certain units but there's a difference in a voluntary drinking/pushup initiation contest that you can choose to opt out of and people waking up with balls on their face. Some of the hazing tactics go beyond any kind of tradition or unofficial holiday some of them are straight up disgusting.

Just before Xmas 1965, I was in a rifle company--G Co 2/2 FMF at Camp LeJeune--when we were called into a company formation so the Bn CO could address us. As usual at the time, all kinds of crap was going on in the world and we knew that we might be called on to deploy at any time. The Col arrived and told us what we already knew. But he continued: No matter where you are, or what you're doing, you're on duty 24 hours a day. If you are recalled to your unit, you are to return immediately (we knew this also); if you fail to return, you'll be court-martialed." Then he and his staff left. No "Merry Christmas" or "Enjoy your leaves."

2:06 he's got a point you know 😅

THAT was art. Best one since “General Wears His Medals”.

While he happily spends time with his family every one else has to go back to their base every 3 days

USMC: “We always train together, to motivate each other and push each other to our limits" FIRST MAJOR General SOY BOY: Fighting is like super violent and everyone needs to be punished to stop this fighting.. ME: You chose the wrong profession my guy..

He'll get his CAR when a 81mm mortar "accidentally" falls on his post when they go out on the field.

And "leadership" wonders why morale is in the toilet.

But can we acknowledge how amazing his singing voice is???

One time we had to do “Porta Potty Fire Guard” in Afghanistan because someone sharpied some bad stuff about the chain of command in the Shart Sauna

There is a difference between a healthy fear and an unhealthy fear.

Can confirm that retention is, in fact, "trash."

this is why Marines join the Army, we had a bunch of Marines in my last unit who now LOVE the Army

" ...or somebody done told ya to." Yeah, I'm going with that one.

This is the earliest I've ever clicked on this channel 😂

CO's: Hazing is bad Me: looks at boot camp knowing its basically a government funded haze.

I never sat at home for Christmas when I was in the Marines. We were always deployed. You could count on it.

"why oh WHY are there so many suicides and low morale everywhere????"

He really is the grinch, we shouldn’t give him mre’s for Christmas. GIVE HIM POST DUTY FOR CHRISTMAS

Should have just been fixed in-house. But sometimes a bare-knuckle fist fight gets stuff done quicker than a conversation.

As a marine of 1/7, I find this is hilarious. I feel bad for them, yeah. It's just fucked, man

I haven't laughed that hard in a few years. Thank you and semper fi

“Why is Marine Corps retention rate so low?”

Yeah, I don't think that SGM knows how bad that cancelling Christmas will affect their unit's morale

Brother, you rock. Your channel is awesome. From Canada, wishing you continued success.

"1 CAR to small" hahahahahaha

Full length version of "You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch"!

The skills angry has as a comedian/entertainer are highly underrated

I can be in a horrible mood but your videos make me laugh out loud and forget about things. Love em. Keep up the good work!

I'm putting you in for a CAB for the shit storm you just stoked up. Kudos. I don't know how you say what you say, stay in and don't come under fire, but you're our freaking hero.

Great a "leader" who leads infantry, yet never saw combat in a 20 year war.

So that’s why they’re “The FEW, the proud”...

"one car to small" that's a big oof bro, big oof.

As a Marine Vet;... Well Said,.. Well Done!!

I love how our senior leaders always tell us to take a “tactical pause” before making a decision, and then they’re the ones who end up making an over reactive, harsh, indecisive decision/reaction. Not to mention this behavior from our senior leaders has been quite rampant recently.

I had aspirations of doing 20 years. After one bad chain of command during my last year I said nope screw this see ya. They do stuff like this and wonder why nobody re-enlists.

4:40 Just leaving this here so I can return, play this over and over, and laugh like hell

Drill Sergeants are truly gifted vocalists. Fact. AC, this is pure art. And your use of the word DUNCE was above and beyond. Profanity every 2 seconds is played the F out. But dunce....ohhh pure beauty. 🤘👏👏👏

The pompousness that is leadership. And when they take that power and responsibility and take a sheet on its integrity. 🤬

He’s just mad cause he’s gotta walk to work since he ain’t got no CAR

The beatings will continue until morale improves.🤣

Man the emotion in this one. It’s amazing.

The Marines should read the FT Hood report and understand what toxic leadership does to a unit.

Now I want to hear him sing the whole intro song especially the “You’re as cuddly as a cactus you’re as charming as an eel” bit

I was in 29 Stumps back in '85-'86 for tech school!

Dude, yeah I said it, you and Donut Operator are top notch. Semper Fi

Ahh yes, the classic "the beating will stop once moral improves"

This is the outstanding leadership from the senior NCO’s that made me happy I got out.

7:02 that echo hit the spot

Thats about the most accurate description of the Marines I’ve ever heard.

it really seems like those in power just don't want lesser beings to have Traditions anymore.

You are the standing comedian for the armed forces. Truly an epic piece you made here 👏

With every passing day, Angry Cops gets _that_ much closer to being a Volbeat album cover

2/7 rip’d with us and got back from deployment during COVID, they haven’t been able to go home in over a year and a half. Gotta feel for those guys.

Sounds like the Regimental Commander had a chat with his battle buddy.

You Crack Me Up!!! Good Job!!!

Thank you SIR
