I am so happy their parents/family members were allowed to attend. Due to Covid regulations previously in place we could not attend our grandson's graduation. All the extended family is so proud of him being a Marine.
I was there 42 yrs ago platoon 3042 and I can still remember graduation day you feel like their is nothing you can't do after 13 weeks of hell.
I was there in 1975 platoon 3113 graduated in December
in all the craziness of it all, makes you miss it years later. plt 2021 for co 2006
Shit Platoon 2113 Echo Company 2008 Graduate.
Vietnam Era Marine...Plt.1008...DI. SSgt. Delph...badass!
Congratulations Marines, you make us proud!
Can’t wait to see my son graduate!! Missing him terribly
0:27 There is an image you would never believe while you were there. A DI pushing a stroller.
The "real" drill instructor is to his right, LOL.
@@XJarhead360Ain't that the truth, the way he had his head down, it looked like he had already been ass-chewed and was doing the walk of shame.
@@coolhand1964They aren't allowed to have families I reckon🤔
God is good
This is nothing special. Women have BEEN joining the Marines since forever. Their boot camp had been in Paris Island, FL. Adding a female company in San Diego is not making any real history. It's just adding cost and complications for separate facilities and other accomodations.
Paris Island SC!!!** Not FL lmfao
True, but I believe this is the first coed training battalion. Male and female recruits in the same company.
Actually, is only ONE platoon of female recruits in a company with the rest of the all male platoons. Now the ridiculous politicians are pushing to close both MCRDs to build only one somewhere in the middle of the US, willing to spend MILLIONS of dollars only to satisfy their sick idea of integrating males and females in only one location. All of them should be voted out and let the Marine Corps continue the same way it has been since its formation!
@@kwt2000trucker AMEN TO THAT!!!
And Ashley Rose...it's Parris Island not "Paris". Sure you were there? Plt 272 in Aug of '56. Still going strong at age 85. E8 retired both Marines and Army 1978.
Semper Fidelis Marines
Hell yeahhhhhhhhh congratulations devil!!! Semper Fi!!!
Proud of them
34 Years ago I was there. Welcome to the fold Sisters. Semper Fi!!!
❤ A Proud Dqy for The Corps.
53 of 60 but was the standard the same for both males and females? Nope.
Is about 16 miles. Not 45
God bless you all for the service and my future marine child Katelyn Lira faith over fear ✝️✝️✝️🤍🤍🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😩
While I earned my title at parris island I could not be more proud of my sisters who claimed their title in the west. Hope to see you all in the fleet. OOHRAH!
Ladies you made history!!!
Yup they made history by making our country weak.
@@eos2338 haters gonna hate.
@VicDw5000 read the title.
@@allthewaysuccess3076 yup and the biggest haters are the women they just can't stand to see men dominating a career field.
@@eos2338
Men have dominated and run the world from the beginning of time. This doesn't bother most women because most women are normal, and "normal" women view this as how it should be. Most women's first concern is for their husband and children. The women who are angry over this historical fact are the rabid, radical feminist women who view women as "victims" of male patriarchal societies. In fact, back in the 1970s normal women---homemakers and mothers---organized and defeated the feminist Equal Rights Amendment. It never saw ratification because these conservative (normal) women kept it from getting the required number of states needed for it to have become part of the Constitution. They did/do not want to be treated like a man.
Ya must be nice being able to see your family i graduated 4 weeks before them with golf company and we couldn’t see our family i alr graduated soi im at my school house now still no leave
Felt that. Graduated with kilo right after you
Makes me feel less safe
How come?
Women are the ones committing all the violent crimes and wars throughout the world for centuries right?!🤯🤡.
Semper Fi
most men cannot be a marine. if a woman wants to come in and be equal to the man next to them they have to train as hard and get as strong as the man next to them. . hold them all to the same training standards and expectations. imagine them saying in a firefight i cant drag you out of hostile fire because im a woman and not as strong??? being a woman is not a handicap. if anything it's an opportinity to push harder to show everyone you are stong.
if they said that they would get in massive trouble
They wouldn't pass.
Women want equality only when it benefits them.
Mikey Breakz,
I cannot believe you posted such a stupid comment! If a woman could become as strong as a man, we would not need male and female sports teams at the Olympics. So your comment makes no sense. Also, there is already a controversy going on about whether even transgender women should be permitted to compete in female sporting events because these transgender women have a huge advantage.
Also, these bootcamp women had LOWER standards for physical fitness. To get full points for pull-ups or push-ups, for example, they did considerably fewer than what the men were required to do to get full points. Also, to get full points for the 3-mile run, the women had 33 minutes to complete it, whereas the men had to complete it in 28 minutes to get full points. So their training was hardly equal to the men's training.
You also stated they were not trying hard enough. How patronizing and insulting!
@@dennishalford5763 yes a woman can easily become as strong as a man
Semper Fi sisters.
SEMPER FI Ladies!! We're proud of you..as Marines!!!!!!
I'm not belittling what the women went through to become US Marines because I did the same thing there in San Diego in 2001 but I am disappointed that the Marine corps broke tradition broke down and allowed women to be trained in San Diego California when in my opinion they should have just kept the long-standing tradition of having the women only in Parris Island South Carolina Carolina
As long as you walk off the grinder on Gday You are and always will be a UNITED STATES MARINE. Donst matter where.
Semper Fi My Sisters, welcome to the "EGA", club... forever..........🎉❤
Simper fi marine great job to our women i knew you all could make the sacrifices
Did they have to meet the same physical requirements as the males?
If so then the Corps has softened, In 1976 Our plt3137. started with 80 males only 39 graduated, no offense to female Marines
I am not bad about the marines but I am a airborne Ranger and I must say this is for our freedom
I wish I could have been there for your graduation 🎓. Semper-Fi my sister's Semper-Fi.
What date was your graduation
2:29. That is my daughter holding the company guidon!
Congrats! Your daughter is an amazing woman!
Way to go all of you
Heaven help us
So proud of these strong women who serve this country! I hope one of my children can serve too like their father has
Not impressed. PCBS
@@drifterman319you’ll be fine
Oorah!! Semper Fi!! Welcome to the E.G.A. Family!! Once a Marine always a Marine!! USMC 1987-1991!!
👏
I would not call it a milestone for the Marine Corps. It is a political milestone.
First cycle to have the standards lowered.
Is vaccination mandatory for Marines?
The hate and projection from male marines and retirees is crazy!😂
Anyone here from platoon 3113 1975?
Drill instructor staff Sargent Judice was the platoon leader.
I WAS IN BACK IN THE 70'S, I"AM GLAD WOMAN DI'S WERE NOT WITH THE MEN,I WOULD HAVE DIED LAUGHING
And you would have been IT a lot and they would’ve whooped you
I guess were just fuckin perris island now?!
Spell it right dummy
2:02 Give me a fucking break....Not in any universe does someone break both femurs and still walk. It makes for a good story though.
And that 45 mile claim is absolutely completely doubtful...
You can still walk with stress fractures although it is very painful. It is actually fairly common in petite military members...
@@psychoticsoldier1, yup, that was my first thought. I knew someone personally who had them in one of their legs. Iirc that's also the reason Snowden never completed SF training.
@@rostamlong380 it’s a 9.3 mile hike back but 45 miles over the 3 day Crucible. The 9.3 mile hike back from the field is the only hike with the big main pack though
@@rostamlong380 10 miles for the final hike. The past 2 days before another 40 miles combined. Finished around 50miles in the 2.5 days
Here's some embarrassment as civilians cheer "women". On this "history day", about 400 new Marines completed boot camp. Of the 400, 50 were women (8%); 1 woman for every eight men. Knowing this, and experiencing the Corps, I can outright SAY these new WM celebrity careers will have no further "claim to fame". Some will be regarded as the "top 3 PT finishers" instead of "the only WM that barely passed". What they were TAUGHT Marine Corps values of character. I've seen them LEARN was how to work the systems of Affirmative Action. I've watched many WMs not strive as they were [12 in their command], and assured a AA quota slot in every conceivable board. AA will regard them as the "chosen one", like the obvious black woman as the Senior Drill Instructor. Remember the Army Ranger women officers PUSHED THROUGH the program while male soldiers were dropped due to performance not holding the same standards. The SDI was given attention, but there was absolutely no mention of the Jr DIs working under her. Their entire career will be preselected due to the meaningless "first platoon" PUSHED through training.
You just typed a bunch of bs
@@paigeright2610 I wouldn't notice you unless your prices come down.
@@paigeright2610 you use this comment after affirmative action or SJW can't get your way? Stop breathing my air.
@@paigeright2610 no he typed the truth
the standards were lowered
pretty much
The reality is that standards have been dropping for years for men and women. There’s a video of an admiral talking about how it’s actually a security issue for the country that so many recruits are out of shape nowadays. Even the SEALs had to put in a pre-buds course so that fewer will have to drop out.
When you strive to be the best, now you are the best. God bleess you all!
How are you the best if you strive to be the best? Most every pvt. starts out striving to be the best but of course not all graduate.
There they go again with this type of thinking. It's not logical. MEN ARE STRONGER AND HAVE MORE ENDURANCE THAN WOMEN! THAT'S THE WAY HUMANS ARE. No offense; That's just the way it is and has always been.
This is very disturbing for Marines of the Old Corps unless some of them have lost some pride that they had for many years. Nothing against the female Marines. My hat if off to them. I graduated in march 1976. plt.3137 We started off with 80 recruits, some washed out early during the first phase but the rest gave everything that they had as we say 110%. They didn't have what it takes to be THE FEW THE PROUD THE MARINES. Of the 80 we started with only 41 graduated. We knew and are proud that we were the cream of the top, the few.. Are there actually people out there that don't know that physically men are stronger and have more endurance than women? It has always been that way with Human Beings.No offense but a fact. So if the men in my plt. that didn't graduate although they gave all that was humanely possible from them, then how is it that now that out of 60 females 53 graduated by going thru the training and conditioning with men? If the men gave their all and couldn't graduate how can the women that did say that they did because they tried harder than the men that gave their all. Doesn't make sense. Of course, now there is a much higher % of men graduating than back in my time. This tells me that it must be that the training is still difficult but not as difficult that the majority can graduate. THE MAJORITY DOES NOT EQUATE TO THE FEW THE PROUD! The women Marines are truly the cream of the crop in regards to Womanhood but they are not men and as a whole, they will never be as tough as men no matter how they try to be. This integration has softened Our Beloved Corps ! I wonder if deep inside some of the male Marines wonder if the overwhelming percentage of women graduated as well as the men then how can we be the few the proud? I'm just saying let the women do the physical part which is the majority of boot camp by themselves . Then see if the percentage of male grads. goes down.
I would like to know the reasons 39 members of your class washed out. You seem to imply they couldn't hack the physical requirements. Let's see 1976 is when you graduated and that decade was a peak for young people using drugs. How many washed out because they tested positive for marijuana? How many were set back to a "fat boys" platoon because they couldn't finish the obstacle course or other PT requirements? How many lost weight and graduated with another platoon. How many were set back due to illness and finished with another platoon?
As for graduating in 1976, as I remember the requirements enlistment during that period were "dumbed down" because there were not many applicants wanting to enlist in the military. So maybe some of the 39 who didn't graduate just didn't have the mental commitment.
Semper Fi, MCRDSD, Platoon 360, Aug1962
76 of us started and 77 finished. The Vietnam war was over and many recruits weren't motivated enough without a war. I've heard of some young men that felt cheated out of going to Vietnam, then there was the stigma of being a "baby killer." Maybe your DIs were Vietnam vets but I can't be sure that many of us stayed on after 1972. Semper Fi. MCRDSD 1969 honor platoon 3123.
I’ll just say my senior told me as a female marine you have to prove yourself 2x as the men. Maybe that why they graduated! Just because those males didn’t doesn’t mean the women won’t.
@@XJarhead360he’s literally projecting. Upset that the female marines worked their butt to graduated while his male counterparts didn’t make it. Like that’s not our problem.
Imagine all that energy after being at sea for 6 months o.O.
Must be one helluva ladies night out. 😎 🇺🇲🦅
God bless 🙏
Marines: why is the Guide wearing Blues while everyone else is wearing their Charlie’s? Never seen that before.
In the early 90s everyone graduated in Blues then they changed it to only the Platoon Guides in the mid to late 90s. They did this because the USMC is the only branch that does not issue uniforms at no cost. Its a way to save the new Marines some money and to lessen the amount of recruits that need fitted for them during recruit training. Not sure about pre-1990
Back in the day every platoon has an honorman that wears dress blues for outstanding physical, mental and academic performance.
@@DocPicklez Our guide wore his blues also 1976
OMG
We need to stop playing Social Justice Warrior games with the Marine Corps
For real
Next thing you know, they'll let Blacks serve right alongside Whites...
@@davidwarner3326 oh no! 😱 not the blacks and whites! This social justice needs to stop!
It’s not a game, it’s basic human rights
they are softening our Corps
This is torture!
Im happy there are female marines...Hey we women are just as good as the men...
As a female marine, I’ll say not exactly. We have less standards than them for a reason
must
impotent question.. she woke ????
Please send them to war on their own

So these are the people protecting us .
We are in trouble
Why are we in trouble?
We’re not in trouble, the other counties are
Hope the women don’t hinder operational effectiveness
They will.
Just say you would never be able to do this and move on instead of trying to dismiss these women’s huge accomplishments.
@@celeste3687 the only thing they accomplished was weakening our military.
@@celeste3687 how did they accomplish anything with lower watered down standards
@@eos2338 they don’t “weaken our military”
They make it stronger
I don't have maind of femlae join the army . BUT i don't agree that male and female be in same place. If they both of theme are in same place the Pheromones will be every where. Don't blame males if they start flirting and sexsual harmons go up . Also female may feel attractive to male . Learn from the past.
I had a stroke reading this, learn how to spell.
So who you gonna blame ? The woman ? You are what’s wrong with men
They won't last 10min in a fire fight
BA HAAA!
So these are going up against Russian Spetznaz 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good luck
There are women Russian soldiers
Go Navy ground grunts LOL thank u for protecting ur country!!!!
Proud of them. Would of been nice if they got shave bold too. Lol
All females get hurt 😞 smh
