Lol, I remember this. I didn't have the balls to go over, so the instructor just pushed me off the ledge -_-".

@mojack621 3 года назад

This was the best day in boot camp. There was one recruit who was deathly afraid of heights. He had a hard time going over the side. The DI belayed him half way down to get him to conquer his fear. When I went thru MCRD San Diego, they had a tower with a wooden side. The DI stopped him mid way down and knocked him against the wall a few times using the rope, talking shit the whole time. I felt bad for the guy, but he got thru it and graduated with our class. That also motivated the rest of us to not show any fear of heights! Damn if that DI was going to do that to me! haha Good times

@Adam-iq8rv 2 года назад

The drill instructors knew I was the most uncoordinated recruit so they intentionally stuck me on barracks guard duty. I missed this whole training evolution. They did the same for me for the obstacle courses and all rope climbs.

@CJ-em4ds Год назад

No way this is true!

@Adam-iq8rv Год назад

@@CJ-em4ds absolutely true. I lived it. 1999. Do you think Marines are all super warriors or something? There are recruit Mexicans who barely speak English who don't really care about the United States. They were from Texas.

@HughJorgan09 3 месяца назад

You sound like the type of Marine who'll get all the meritorious promotions. At least, that's the way it was, when I was enlisted. The ones who couldn't do well on the PFT, couldn't do much else exceptional, except kiss butt, they seemed to always get out of doing the things that the rest had to do. So, how do you think this prepared you for REAL active duty? When you're in rough circumstances, and, your fellow Marines have to depend on you?

@bigalzeack 9 лет назад

This is probably gonna be the hardest thing I will have to do in boot camp (Yes I am joining the marines at this very moment). Mainly because I may have a fear of heights.

With that mindset, you won't. Everything is scary until you've done it. It would be fine if you said you had doubts if you could do it. But saying "never"? You just undermined your potential entirely. Think higher of yourself.

What is this weak shyt? They could damn near jump down from that one-story distance! When did they stop rappeling from up higher? When I went throughMCRD San Diego, there weren't stairs up the tower...you climbed a rope netting-type contraption up, and then, you rappelled down. We did have one guy who didn't follow instructions, and, things didn't end well for him...kinda went splat. Teaches you to pay attention, it's NOT a game!
