This is true. What is also true is that this is obviously an over exaggeration. I believe truly and fully that tough or easy times. The tough ones will always show. The real ones will always come ready. The easy times do create weak people. But they also create amazing things as well. It’s the easy times where people are tested to be better. Technology advances, science furthers, great minds of art and archeology come through. The easy times we are able to do a lot more. But also sadly a lot of society becomes weak minded

I was going to make a joke but then since you were actually in it and felt the difference I decided to delve into thought and figure out why you might feel that way, here are my thoughts. Im thinking, that its because two generations before you were born the people from that time fought through WW1 and might've fought again at WW2 and have lived through the Korean War, many who have lived through all those were probably still alive at the time of your enlistment. The generation before you have fought in WW2 + Korea, and probably had there fathers fight through the First and Second. you were probably really young when WW2 happened or didn't exist, but the higher ups and personnel did some who hand fought at WW2 and maybe both. On top of that they had also witnessed the power of nukes first hand. The country had just endured two back to back wars that has left nothing but devastation and death of over *100 Million people !* countless countries were destroyed, cities were literally wiped of the map. The personnel from your your generation have lived through insane times. Then Korea and straight after. Now Vietnam, is when you enlisted, is happening and on top of that you're having a different country is threatening to literally wipe yours of the map (the Cold War). Nukes were only recently used and everyone is on edge and nobody was going to be afraid of using them. Shit was *extremely* serious back then. Now at the time of your retirement most countries have developed nukes and that has removed its threat because no one would dare to use them, using them would cause your own country to be wiped out because they got some too. The imminent threat has disappeared, the threat of great wars has disappeared. Things aren't as immediate and fast anymore, also the generation that was left at the time of your retirement have only experienced Vietnam. Yet, I wouldn't underestimate an army that is still at conflict, this video is an extreme exaggeration, because in the end experience trumps everything and those have experienced it wouldn't let shit like that slide. Damn, I wrote an essay, I'm not even American lol.

went to basic in 2018 and can confirm stress cards are not real, drill sergeants didn’t care for anyone’s feelings, ran us into the dirt the whole time.
Oh thank God. I was worried because I heard people saying stuff like that and I was afraid the military was going to become a bunch of snowflake pussies.
That stress card thing is so played out. I heard that bullshit back in 98 when I was in Basic. And then of course we heard about "Candyland" where they don't get smoked, and they get the whole day Sunday off, and So-And-So unit has it so much easier and crap. They go to great lengths to craft a unified training environment (for the Infantry) so that everyone has a fairly shared experience. Stress card BS is just a fairy tale that Privates tell each other to make themselves feel better because they are surviving the "tough" Basic when in reality Basic is not all that tough (strenuous perhaps, but not that tough).
In Marine Corps Boot Camp over at MCRD San Diego, our platoon came in last for Initial Drill out of the entire company. Our Drill Instructors were livid, however when they took us to afternoon chow, they made everyone get ice cream. Our SDI said "Everyone better be filling your cups with icecream..." - I've never been more scared to get an ass-whooping in my entire life. It was all about psychology.
My platoon during Basic was lucky enough to make our Drill Sergeants not wan't to grind us into dust after our P.T. tests halfway through, and allowed anyone in the platoon to eat ice-cream for one meal, albeit one SMALL scooping they did themselves from the soft serving machine. The other platoon's Drill Sergeants freaked the fuck out and did a witch hunt in our platoon to find out who actually ate any of the ice-cream. There's always the one snitch so the 4 of us, including myself, who actually did eat it (It tasted very bland and watery but it was very cold and felt great eating at the end of a hot day), and they wrote all of our names down. P.S. Nothing happened, our 1st Sergeant found it an acceptable reward for improvement. Our platoon was mostly women so most of the scores were pretty bad at the start, but they made a really quick turn around in my opinion.
just joined the corps. all I need now is a wife that cheats on me and a box of 64 colored crayons and a brand new 2017 mustang on a 36% interest rate. Hey gents this is me 2 years later. Just gonna let y’all know appreciate the likes! Well I’m now back again 3 years later. No never payed the car off. Just got 3 years of alcoholism and a hatred for Japanese drivers. I EAS tomorrow. Seems surreal to think this is the end. I’m switching to the army but I guess it’s been a fun go. Always Marines, have a Dan Daly day and Semper Fidelis Marines.
Graduated in 2018 from Sill. Kid in my platoon figured out a family member died so since our DS was on CQ that night he brought the trainee in and talked him through it for about half an and made sure he’d stay focused on training. He sent him up to his barracks and an hour later the DS came up and smoked the whole bay for existing. I think we’ll be alright.

My dad's an Army vet, I'm told to respect All military personnel even though they act tough and some are douchebags. For the ones who served in this comment thread I thank You for your service, Not for your attitude You cough out towards people. Respect is earned when respect Is given because you served and I salute you, I came across a marine Who Told ME off By saying if they served Because he was wearing a Shirt In support of marines, he said OF COURSE he served went on to call me a F**king Faggot was very rude towards me and got up in my face. Anywho how would I know if he's in the Marines or not? maybe he's wearing that Shirt for a family member who's serving his Or her country I did not know, people do that you Know. All I got was a freaking disrespectful Marine who bad mouthed me while people watched on in disbelief, I even walked up to him and still thanked him for his service and said have a good day, even though I was about to lose it And Would Have broke My fist over his head but I kept my cool under pressure. I'm sure he was just stressed so I brushed it off. But To all Who served I thank you for your service and Even if someone calls me weak or Stupid for posting this comment I will say Lighten up No harm done here just my experience and Don't Mistake Kindness For weakness. Much love keep the peace here, My dad that took part in operation Paul Bunyan And also Served his country is still alive today But with a colostomy bag On his stomach He's about to get surgery on July 1st to remove it he had Myasthenia Gravis that went through his system and Ate at his intestine and muscles all because Back then in the army he was exposed to mustard Gas from training. He told me son I seen some Crazy stuff in my life seen many of my friends pass away and Seen military buddies go away I've seen so much that it will make your head spin He had marine friends that made fun of him but He did not shy away from making fun of them too. At the end of the day He said We all Served our country Greatly and We all Bleed red on the inside He sees no other military branches He sees Friends, Buddies And tough soldiers I said Dad as I hugged him That was Great and I thank you for you service, as I embraced him. He's a fighter And I thank God I have him, and thank God I'm a Army brat that was Taught right.
If you're feeling stressed from a drill sergeant, you show them it and they back off so you can be relieved of stress. Don't worry, that shit doesn't exist.
SweetAmerifags - oh, I can assure you they exist. As well as a suicide card, i dont know if that is if you are worried about you or your "buddy" they pair you with, it was called an ACE intervention card. I served in the corps., sister inbthe army, so just google it if youre curious. Yes, they are real, I dont think they call them stress cards though, and they get 3.
1984: you're gonna do push-ups till I get tired (they never get tired). You can have as much as you want to eat, but you only have 5 minutes. Now eat!!!!!! Use the big spoon!!!! Chew it now, swallow it later!!!!! Just a few memories from old tank Hill in Fort Jackson SC
The amount of nuclear-weapons countries have access to nowadays are much greater than before, greater than the amount during the Cold War. Therefore I’m unsure if infantry combat will be such a threat, more of like the actual threatening between countries.
Your chest is supposed to touch the ground when you do a push up. Thing is that doesn't mean your body should disengage. If you're not touching your chest to the ground. You're doing it wrong.
The only real standards for push-ups in the Army is that the your body remains straight and the upper portion of your arm is bent until at least level with the ground. Whether your chest touches the ground or not when this happens doesn't matter.
@@MrSpartanspud One of the dumbest comments on here. Your chest should NEVER touch the ground with the old pushups. It's crystal clear in the regulation that you must BREAK THE PLANE. Once your elbows are parallel to the ground, you are done....period. All these clowns who used to tell people that they were suppose to touch their chest to the ground are morons who lack common reading fundamentals.
In basic training I was nicknamed Matilda. One day I was offered a piece of cake, I wanted to take the cake. I did not take the cake as I knew of the consequences that would most certainly follow. Because I refused the cake it was now disrespectful to the fucking prick DS who had offered it. I chose and ate this cake as it were my last meal as this was a no go situation. The entire platoon watched me eat this piece which turned into a full cake. Thus leading to skull drags in the barracks until I shit myself. I haven't eaten cake in 7 years.
Join back in 2010 and basic was hell of fun. I remember on the 16k on my way back i was the last one, feet full of blisters and the DS kept taunting me, running circles around me. When it was all set and done in graduation he told me he was doing that to keep me distracted from the pain, cuz if i had gotten on the truck i would of failed and had to do it with a different class next week. DS always have it tough.
Yeah that was a good drill Sgt. For me I went in 2000. I had such a hard time running. Looking back, I had all theses thoughts how I cant run, I'm not going to pass. Not a good mind set. So on my last pt test my drill sgt ran with me yelling at me the whole time. Stay with me. Do not stop. Stay right next to me. She was pacing me and I passed. 😊
I once called my Chief, E7, Captain, O6, at RTC. Told me he had never been promoted by a recruit before. Also, "petty chief? Oh I will show you a petty chief! HYDRATE!" was a common one.
I just finished serving 22 years in the Jamaican military and let me tell you, basic training has been watered down so much so that I am embarrassed at the standards of the recruits these days.
@@htvlogs80 wow... I thought things were getting too lenient in 2008, but that is incredible. I saw a black female private have a full meltdown and call the Drill a N word, she was telling them to shut the F up and all that. They just told her to calm down and let her go sit down for the rest of the day. She still graduated. That stress card thing is crazy though
To quote Tyler the creator “sooo, that was a fucking lie.” I had basic in Great Lakes, Illinois back in 2014, and all my recruiters said they were gentle in boot camp. Far from the truth. But shit it was still easy even if it sucked ass. What really sucked ass was the fleet
The '96 recruit is closer to my generation, even though i went to basic in '99. I gotta say the portrayal is accurate because as you touched on, this was the gangster hip hop era which i remember vividly. Gotta remember back in the mid to late 90s, every kid was wearing baggy pants listening to rap. Popular movies of the time were films like boys n the hood, menace to society, blood in blood out, american me.. hell even the white boys had american history x, which was about neo nazi skinhead gangs. These movies along with the music influence had everyone thinking they were hard, even suburban kids... these are the kids drill instructors had to deal with, and no doubt enjoyed breaking down. I went to marine corps bootcamp so we probably had more knuckleheads than other branches. I remember seeing one or two recruits try to get buck with the drill instructor, then get smacked down. USMC= Uncle Sam's Misguided Children
Both my older brothers enlisted in the Corps in 00 and myself in 09 ( they were 18 and I was 21) I've never hear that saying before (Uncle Sam's Misguided Children) Haha good trash. Semper Fi Brother!
Maidenlord 666 not really. I was in BCT 2015 and we had our phones taken away for the whole time. It is limitations on how much you can be smoked but they weren’t always followed

My Step Dad was in The Marine Corps 84-92. He swears up and down that some "gangster" recruit got sideways with a killhat and they dragged him in the back of the mess hall and WORE. HIS. ASS. OUT. He said the entire platoon sat there in horror, shoving food into their traps while all they heard was screaming coming out of the mess kitchen. Homeboy came walking out with his uniform torn up, knots on his head, and a bloody nose. Not another peep out of that recruit through the rest of basic and AIT. Step Dad told me it was "a highly precise and controlled beating. They could have ripped his arms off and shoved his face in the deep fryer, wrote it up as a "training accident" but they just wanted to give him a little spankin' to remind the boy who was in charge"
Not necessarily. I'm sure he learned his lesson. You can't gome in with that street mentality. You are going to get yourself or fellow soldiers killed in a combat situation.
Back in the 60's Basic was a life changing event for many a young recruit, they taught you to walk into the jaws of death and come out with the jaw bone.
Or they killed you trying! BCT-1969, Ft. Bliss Texas. June, July and August. My drill Sgts. were very Hardcore and just a little crazy. It was very rough training. Lots of men fell out and quit. The only reason other then God for me being alive today is because my Drill pushed me beyond the limits of my mind. I was not going to Quit! It was hard brutal training. It gave me an edge. It pushed me to my limits and then showed me that I had MORE in me! Thank you Drill Sargents, I am alive today because you made me hard.
The 1996 thing is so true. I joined the USAF in 2010. I would say 60% of the military are people messing up in life to some degree and the are joining for a change of scenery. Nothing is wrong with that to be honest. I rather people do that than resort to other things.
Myself included lol. But yeah really seems like a lot of people who join do it to sort of turn their life around a bit and just change it up and get out of that rut back home.
Christian Hutchinson it was true I was in Ft Sill in 1999 and that’s exactly what we had.. a bunch of young men off the streets because it was that or jail. It was a diverse group man.

Slapping Socialists It’s like people like you don’t understand that these neighborhoods were specifically designed to be dangerous and poor by the Government through the practice of Redlining. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redlining?wprov=sfti1
You can't design people to be poor. They have to make the choices. No parenting = dangerous and poor. Convoluted excuses and blame-shifting will not improve your neighborhoods. It's like people like you have no idea what two loving parents raising children to be better than they are is what makes societies successful. Some cultures choose to have few children and raise them well, others choose to have many fatherless children that will be left to be raised by the community and government. I'll let you guess which one of these cultures builds societies and which one inhabits and destroys societies.
I considered the military when I graduated and was fine until I was told to lie or do what ever was needed to get in, I turned and left having been made to feel that even that honor based class of defenders is also gone in our country.
I graduated from Benning in May of 2019. My Troop had gone from 162 to 75, and even then, there was a guy who ND’d into another guy’s back who was pushed through. Apparently, we were told it was because our Troop had “Exceeded the number of enlisted it could discharge or recycle.”

I joined the Marine Corps in 04, I rejoined with the Armyin 2017. I wanted to go back to Afghanistan. However I got to my unit and realized this unit would have a casualty rate that matched the entire length of the war combined. So when I went to Korea and then Europe I was fine with that, my duty station was Fort Hood. That should rate you a combat medal just being stationed there.
The Army is like regular world you got dentists, cooks, truck drivers, pilots, lawyers and cops (that will give you a ticket for going 5 km or less over slow speed limit). The main difference they have is you have to pass a physical condition test... maybe a good thing for the regular US, you have to know some basic tactics and shoot to certain proficiency in the prone or kneeling and the key thing there is killing job from tanks, infantry, blackhawk pilots. Before you give regular soldiers shit... realize most citizens aren't police ready or squat team. You think a soldier in combat is going to call 911 if their getting shot at? Elite forces are the best trained killers but compared to regular civilians that panic at everything trust me on average a soldier is tougher mentally.
Tony M say that to a Marine's face dipshit. Marines are actually making their tests more difficult and aren't falling into PR pressure; they're the only branch that doesn't allow phones in boot camp now too.

I joined the Army in 1973 and retired in 2001 Not the same Army when I left!!!
Manuel, how did the Army change from 1973 - 2001? I'm interested in what you experienced. I joined the Air Force in 1965 and got out in 1969.
Fewer drugs when you got out?
How did it change?
Totally agree!
I was going to make a joke but then since you were actually in it and felt the difference I decided to delve into thought and figure out why you might feel that way, here are my thoughts.
Im thinking, that its because two generations before you were born the people from that time fought through WW1 and might've fought again at WW2 and have lived through the Korean War, many who have lived through all those were probably still alive at the time of your enlistment. The generation before you have fought in WW2 + Korea, and probably had there fathers fight through the First and Second. you were probably really young when WW2 happened or didn't exist, but the higher ups and personnel did some who hand fought at WW2 and maybe both. On top of that they had also witnessed the power of nukes first hand.
The country had just endured two back to back wars that has left nothing but devastation and death of over *100 Million people !* countless countries were destroyed, cities were literally wiped of the map. The personnel from your your generation have lived through insane times. Then Korea and straight after. Now Vietnam, is when you enlisted, is happening and on top of that you're having a different country is threatening to literally wipe yours of the map (the Cold War). Nukes were only recently used and everyone is on edge and nobody was going to be afraid of using them. Shit was *extremely* serious back then.
Now at the time of your retirement most countries have developed nukes and that has removed its threat because no one would dare to use them, using them would cause your own country to be wiped out because they got some too. The imminent threat has disappeared, the threat of great wars has disappeared. Things aren't as immediate and fast anymore, also the generation that was left at the time of your retirement have only experienced Vietnam. Yet, I wouldn't underestimate an army that is still at conflict, this video is an extreme exaggeration, because in the end experience trumps everything and those have experienced it wouldn't let shit like that slide.
Damn, I wrote an essay, I'm not even American lol.

went to basic in 2018 and can confirm stress cards are not real, drill sergeants didn’t care for anyone’s feelings, ran us into the dirt the whole time.
Oh thank God. I was worried because I heard people saying stuff like that and I was afraid the military was going to become a bunch of snowflake pussies.
Same I went in 2017 we were lucky if drill even mentioned us getting to use are phones, we were less than dirt until we finished our last ruck lol
That stress card thing is so played out. I heard that bullshit back in 98 when I was in Basic. And then of course we heard about "Candyland" where they don't get smoked, and they get the whole day Sunday off, and So-And-So unit has it so much easier and crap. They go to great lengths to craft a unified training environment (for the Infantry) so that everyone has a fairly shared experience. Stress card BS is just a fairy tale that Privates tell each other to make themselves feel better because they are surviving the "tough" Basic when in reality Basic is not all that tough (strenuous perhaps, but not that tough).
Whew, that's the best news I've heard in a long time. I can now sleep peacefully at night.
Good.
I remember getting ice cream in basic.
And then they made me throw it up afterwards.
In Marine Corps Boot Camp over at MCRD San Diego, our platoon came in last for Initial Drill out of the entire company. Our Drill Instructors were livid, however when they took us to afternoon chow, they made everyone get ice cream. Our SDI said "Everyone better be filling your cups with icecream..." - I've never been more scared to get an ass-whooping in my entire life. It was all about psychology.
i remember one guy ate ice cream in basic and we all had to work it off for him
My platoon during Basic was lucky enough to make our Drill Sergeants not wan't to grind us into dust after our P.T. tests halfway through, and allowed anyone in the platoon to eat ice-cream for one meal, albeit one SMALL scooping they did themselves from the soft serving machine.
The other platoon's Drill Sergeants freaked the fuck out and did a witch hunt in our platoon to find out who actually ate any of the ice-cream. There's always the one snitch so the 4 of us, including myself, who actually did eat it (It tasted very bland and watery but it was very cold and felt great eating at the end of a hot day), and they wrote all of our names down.
P.S. Nothing happened, our 1st Sergeant found it an acceptable reward for improvement. Our platoon was mostly women so most of the scores were pretty bad at the start, but they made a really quick turn around in my opinion.
dumbass
i remeber kid failed his P.T. Test called hisself getting cake in the chow hall. ALL OUR ASSES GOT SMOKED. Ft. Lost in the woods.

Old push-ups: “chest to the ground disqualifies”
New push-ups: “put your chest down each time”
Your chest is supposed to touch the ground when you do a push up. Thing is that doesn't mean your body should disengage. If you're not touching your chest to the ground. You're doing it wrong.
Future pushups: CHEST TOUCHES THE GROUND EVERY TIME AND YOU CLAP TWICE IN EACH PUSHUP
MrSpartanspud it’s weird that so many people weren’t taught how to do real pushups
The only real standards for push-ups in the Army is that the your body remains straight and the upper portion of your arm is bent until at least level with the ground. Whether your chest touches the ground or not when this happens doesn't matter.
@@MrSpartanspud
One of the dumbest comments on here. Your chest should NEVER touch the ground with the old pushups. It's crystal clear in the regulation that you must BREAK THE PLANE. Once your elbows are parallel to the ground, you are done....period. All these clowns who used to tell people that they were suppose to touch their chest to the ground are morons who lack common reading fundamentals.
In basic training I was nicknamed Matilda. One day I was offered a piece of cake, I wanted to take the cake. I did not take the cake as I knew of the consequences that would most certainly follow. Because I refused the cake it was now disrespectful to the fucking prick DS who had offered it. I chose and ate this cake as it were my last meal as this was a no go situation. The entire platoon watched me eat this piece which turned into a full cake. Thus leading to skull drags in the barracks until I shit myself. I haven't eaten cake in 7 years.

The '96 recruit is closer to my generation, even though i went to basic in '99. I gotta say the portrayal is accurate because as you touched on, this was the gangster hip hop era which i remember vividly. Gotta remember back in the mid to late 90s, every kid was wearing baggy pants listening to rap. Popular movies of the time were films like boys n the hood, menace to society, blood in blood out, american me.. hell even the white boys had american history x, which was about neo nazi skinhead gangs.
These movies along with the music influence had everyone thinking they were hard, even suburban kids... these are the kids drill instructors had to deal with, and no doubt enjoyed breaking down.
I went to marine corps bootcamp so we probably had more knuckleheads than other branches. I remember seeing one or two recruits try to get buck with the drill instructor, then get smacked down.

Dont breathe too heavy next to them or your gonna get court martialed and get fired
“Don’t apologize. You just broke my damn arm!”
Stress card laminated 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Air Force, 2015: Someone hurt their rotator cuff, so we're not allowed to make you do push-ups anymore.
We did push ups. But not if our rotator cuff is hurt. Then we get a waiver till we heal. I thought it was stupid.
Pussies ruined the military for us.
They’ll make you do it with one arm
@@creamychoclatelobsterwarri979 But it isn't masturbation. That wouldn't work. Unless you've had a lot of practice. 😏
Lol shit in boot camp for the Marines I got spit on hit I didn't cry I took it as making me tougher n stronger. Guess we are the last of the old school
Shit i hurt my rotor cuff and they wont even let in join cuz i could legally press charges against them its bullshit
“My army now!” XD
SHARP!
@Wrench oh yeah yeah
Did this guy say: Your eyes called me the n-word?
I fkin died
Your eyes just said, I'm an N word😭😭😭
Big Razzaa nigga what?
Naughty?
People say “the N word” as if theyre in kindergarten, if you’re not trying to offend anyone, Youre fine imo
Moon Science ??? Uhmm nah... Is this some rule that you only apply to the N word cause you want it that way... Like wtf... Don't call me a faggot at any time in any way... Don't call me the N word either... Why is this so hard for people... Well at the very least... If you call me that and I beat your ass... Don't be mad.. just accept what's coming to you
Anthony Carmine_123 you poor guy... If you need a hug call me
That drill sgt is immortal
I really went into basic thinking this is how it was gonna be😭😭 i got more fucked up than Hiroshima 😭😭
Lol I expected 1966. I was not disappointed.
Well it's actually a relief seeing your comment. Don't want our military going soft but also don't wanna see a private Pile
Vince B Well, it wasn’t quite that bad, but I did manage to not piss off any DI’s, so yea. Being able to out-do the rest of the company was a good thing though.
@@jamesharding3459 yeesh, being able to out-do the company would have brought attention to yourself.
Attention was a bad thing in my beloved Corps, no matter how you got it.
Uniformed Historian Declaring you outperformed the rest of your company is a huge shame to yourself. You live and die together, that's not any way to talk about them. If you're outperforming keep it to yourself, or I promise you you'll be the first to die on the field and the first to disgrace yourself.
One of the best MEN I have ever met was a retired NAVY Chief that left the military because he saw this coming. RIP Chief "Chuck" you are missed.
When he slapped that cigarette out of his hand in 1996, I lost it LMAO
"..what the hell?!" LOL

I lost it at "hug the landscape."
"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers."

2066: Drill Sergeant shall only talk in quiet voices, be there to counsel recruits, not yell at them, or make them do any strenuous activity. The service is also opened up to all people, including the disabled, elderly, etc to not leave anyone out. Every soldier also gets a silver star for getting deployed.
haha finally a new comment that isn't shit
This actually is NOW. They’re not allowed to curse or even POINT at a private with ONE finger. They have to use 4 because 1 is demeaning and that was 18 yrs ago!!!
"I want ice cream!"
"I only wanna run once a week!"
🤣
"I want a stress card,laminated"
Those are my demands
"This is MY army now!" AAAHAAHAAHAAA!!!
If my Drill Sargent doesn't rip me a new, then I'm scared for WW3
exactly.
Gage Edwards How have so many people passed up and ignored the fact that you just typed "my drill SARGENT" I'd be scared if a Drill SERGEANT let you through the doors.
Brandon Charbonneau a Drill Instructor?

@The Jimbobway B.C. Soldier: In my unit we got one sword. One slingshot and one rock. We had to share the rock.
@@stevengreen9536 hmmm that sounds familiar lol
@@ichiban_co. It is a line from that sergeant in Halo. Either Halo 2 or Halo 3 i can't remember.
@@stevengreen9536 lol it was Sgt. Johnson in Halo 2
@@Jarebearrr Yes thank you. Been years since i played that game. Memory starts getting fuzzy. :/
Your eyes just said I'm the N word. This might be a perfect summation of how outraged this time is.
in these times.. aint no one trippin on black people... The new -N- Word is calling a girl a she when she wants to pretend to be a He... That right there is the new minority

cafe sounds like a BITCH
Well the 1966 guy was a baby boomer, the 1996 guy was a Generation X ER and the 2016 guy is a millennial. Literally all that needs to be said
@@Gaming2020-c1b it's that the generations have gotten softer and softer as time goes on so what's going on in the video makes perfect sense
I went through in 2016 and my DS apologized to a girl who he made cry. This was so accurate
I’m a veteran of 23 years Marines and army, and I can vouch that this video is pretty darn accurate.
"You just broke my arm!"
Currently a soldier stationed in S. Korea this shits worse than you think ..
what is?
The DIs and RDCs lol... It's pretty exagerated.
Oh God Korea. That's a whole other Army right there. No discipline.
im currently station in korea. I came here straight out of AIT. I hate it because i got a shitty Unit
*****
where you at? 2nd ID?
2:26 "Don't apologize, you just broke my damn arm."
I joined in 92 and two of my sons went through in 2016 and 17. Their experiences were vastly different than mine. Great video!
How were they different?
Cursing, they could lay hands, nothing but water your first two weeks, no dessert until week 4, you ate what they gave you and had to finish it, etc. My sons called me saying soda, gatorades, cheeseburgers and dessert allowed day one and if they didn’t want to finish it was cool. Also the obvious, light cursing only and definitely no hands laid on them.
"I want a stress card, laminated " 🤣🤣😭
Stress cards are real????
@Cobina Lee no they are not.....why do people believe that?
@Cobina Lee ok, I thought you were talking about the lie that everyone got one going through basic military training. (I just graduated from Air Force BMT last Thursday.)
Edit:Actually it does seem like they were never officially issued to any branch. ://www.google.com/url?sa=i&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiY54DC_YbkAhUQPq0KHVLOBAkQzPwBegQIARAC&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wearethemighty.com%2Farticles%2Ftruth-behind-basic-training-stress-cards&psig=AOvVaw1YH1dL2RVWJBc-ujGCYpw3&ust=1566030809250786

ROFL! As a DS at Ft. Jackson, watching this almost made me cry, this video is unfortunately accurate and amazingly Hilarious
They can't be fucking serious. My militia trained harder!
Really? If you don't mind, could I message you over Ft. Jackson, if possible?
Cain Bynum I'm back home; reserve DS. Still would've probably told you no unless you gave me good reason.
Rough Necks Just got outta basic there two weeks ago. It really is true. I felt bad for the DS. They're forced to tiptoe around everything because of regs.
My guy just dehatted after three years. Bye Felicia!! Lmao!!! Absolute shitshow
1996 was spot on. I was waiting for him to say “grab some real estate private”. Hilarious. Keep up the good work
"I'm from East St. Louis." I laughed. But he's right. That's a hard part of town to grow up from.
Anax of Rhodes tell me about it, I’m from them parts
"Hard town to grow up from." LOL why? Because of the inhabitants. Nobody makes a place hard to live in except the inhabitants. So congrats, he's from a neighborhood of shitbags.
@@crashstitches79 You're edgy. Lemme guess, the suburbs, right?
Slapping Socialists It’s like people like you don’t understand that these neighborhoods were specifically designed to be dangerous and poor by the Government through the practice of Redlining. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redlining?wprov=sfti1
You can't design people to be poor. They have to make the choices. No parenting = dangerous and poor. Convoluted excuses and blame-shifting will not improve your neighborhoods. It's like people like you have no idea what two loving parents raising children to be better than they are is what makes societies successful. Some cultures choose to have few children and raise them well, others choose to have many fatherless children that will be left to be raised by the community and government. I'll let you guess which one of these cultures builds societies and which one inhabits and destroys societies.
"Im fresh off a motherduckers ass and im gettin home sick" LMAO
God I love that 😂😂😂😂😂😂
steven flynn me too
Join the Marine's you won't have the 2016 problem
Ready Freddie So true, lol. #OldSchool
Hey girl, are you in the Army?
I’m Trash amen brother
Im thinking about the airforce but idk
I considered the military when I graduated and was fine until I was told to lie or do what ever was needed to get in, I turned and left having been made to feel that even that honor based class of defenders is also gone in our country.
I graduated from Benning in May of 2019. My Troop had gone from 162 to 75, and even then, there was a guy who ND’d into another guy’s back who was pushed through. Apparently, we were told it was because our Troop had “Exceeded the number of enlisted it could discharge or recycle.”
1996 DS: "Hug you? Hell no! We have a strict "Don't ask, don't tell" policy!!
The Boy Scouts were more hardcore than 2016. WTF is a stress card?
That Guy laminated!
That Guy, you don't want to know... Its a clear sign that we are no longer the nation of strength we once were that's for sure...
I thought they stopped that stuff in the Army.
I’ve mostly seen females use them. I don’t see too many guys usin em.
Miles Williams What is it?
YOURE EYES JUST SAID IM AN N WORD 💀💀💀
hector your
Ladies and gentlemen, we got ‘em.
It’s so sad that this is really becoming more and more accurate...
I like his videos, especially the time differences. I think he should do a video about the amount of paperwork in the military.
Its just not in the Infantry !
oh please do a dts or ee video!!!
Good to know it's not just the British army that's gotten overly soft... 😒😅 I WANT ICE CREAM!! I ONLY WANT TO RUN ONCE A WEEK! 😂😂😂😂
Its a joke , pretty non accurate
daveslow84 basic is still pretty rough. Idk why there’s this misconception of it being soft. My drill sergeants sounded exactly like the 1996 drill. Gave 0 fucks about anybody’s feelings. We got smoked relentlessly every single day. Phones in basic? By the end of basic I barely even remembered how to use my phone 😂
Cooper_boi it’s cause older people always see younger people as soft no matter what time period. It’s been like that in the US since the 50s pretty much.
@@MrAtlfan21 It's like that everywhere, older people remember things they way they want to remember them, it's called rose tinted glasses and an amazingly large number of people are unable to spot themselves doing it. You see it a lot with music.
Most people don't realize how warped their memory is.
You all are wrong af lol it’s like that everywhere now. That end bit of 2016 is a real thing. That’s why he commented because he’s actually in. And y’all who say it’s not like that haven’t joined, aRe say you’re a future blah blah blah. There’s a reason people are commenting and getting thousands of likes
I did Benning in 84 at Harmony Hell. The barracks are gone but that hole where I got dogged is still there.
‘81 sand hill. Brand new Barracks had to G.I. the whole building twice a day.
@@TheHuscarl101 84 Sand Hill. Still shiny and new. Harmony is where most of the training took place though. Other than pt, and d&c on the grinder.
And what the hell is this "stress card"?
I dont recall any "stress cards". Unless you count passing out in the heat.
Joined in January of 01. Went to Afghanistan. January of 2019 my son turned 18 and deployed later that year to Afghanistan. Can we say needless war!
@J P Lot's of educated people are in the military. They're called officers.
Nah
I joined the Marine Corps in 04, I rejoined with the Armyin 2017. I wanted to go back to Afghanistan. However I got to my unit and realized this unit would have a casualty rate that matched the entire length of the war combined. So when I went to Korea and then Europe I was fine with that, my duty station was Fort Hood. That should rate you a combat medal just being stationed there.
If this is your average soldier, I guess it explains why they seem to use spec ops for everything these days, lol xD
or marines
The Army is like regular world you got dentists, cooks, truck drivers, pilots, lawyers and cops (that will give you a ticket for going 5 km or less over slow speed limit). The main difference they have is you have to pass a physical condition test... maybe a good thing for the regular US, you have to know some basic tactics and shoot to certain proficiency in the prone or kneeling and the key thing there is killing job from tanks, infantry, blackhawk pilots.
Before you give regular soldiers shit... realize most citizens aren't police ready or squat team. You think a soldier in combat is going to call 911 if their getting shot at? Elite forces are the best trained killers but compared to regular civilians that panic at everything trust me on average a soldier is tougher mentally.
Yep navy seals and marines
Eric Beck Army Rangers > Navy SEALS
Tony M say that to a Marine's face dipshit. Marines are actually making their tests more difficult and aren't falling into PR pressure; they're the only branch that doesn't allow phones in boot camp now too.
"can i hug you" :D
My dad was in the military for his career. 1986-2018 and he agreed with this. My brother was thinking of joining after he graduated in 2012 and said my dad talked him out of it because of this.
You can hug this landscape...
Why are there 5 dislikes on this video? Know what, don't even worry about it........
5 people liked this video so much that they flipped their screen upside down to like it again
HUUUUUUUUUUUU!

The five dislikes probably come from NCOs who have to deal with the 2016 brand of BS everyday )))

After 23 years active duty, that is about right.
Damn man thanks for your service...
"I want a stress card.. laminated.." 🤣🤣🤣
We didn't have stress cards in 94
I went through in 2003. The one for 2016 had me dying laughing!!!

I had a black DI named Thomas in Recruit Training. He was a tough foul mouthed SOB! Edit: sorry he was a “dark green” Marine, not black. 🤫
@Jim Watson He said he doesn't look down on them, but everyone there is equaly worthless to him
@Jim Watson and by the way i don't need a job I'm retired USMC and then some , but I bet you can use a serious loan or be happy about whatever l fetch to you from out of anyone of these ocean sized deep pockets , but I'm not hard to get along with here kid , here kid , fetch , fetch, fetch, now off you go just run right along ✌🛀 💪 🛫!!!!.
@Jim Watson Yeah but there evil rascis lines so why did and why do you like them everyone knows already how evil and racist this world is already , we don't need a any negative confirmations from tv. And What is a Southern Black Preacher Voice?
@Jim Watson so does a white southern pastor voice exist and if so what does it sounds like and I never heard anyone laughing about it or expounding on it , and I'm only offended by what's humanely naturally offensive yeah remember keep it real . And standing up for the amendments I wear United States Marine Corps Dress Blues and no one gave it to me! Nor just brought it to my front door ! And as far as who will have the judgement and the last judgement on with Earth who have been and will be in particularly racially offended ? Answer the one who gets racially Offended.
@Jim Watson well I'm not truly rich either only I said that but God in Heaven have spoken I'm a terrible filthy poor wretched poor excuse of the man that God in Heaven wants and require of me. And Don't worry about not joining the Corps and becoming a US. Marine. I'm not worried about getting out and never will!!!! I rather be in The Living Jehovah God in Heaven forever undefeatable sure enough Army for Life and I sincerely hope you do too! And I'm so called disable too something for real enough ! But still we got to keep our heads up 🙏💪✌ out and my God in Heaven forever Bless You and Yours 🛀!!!!!!!
Just 5? My daddy used to get smoked.... the look in the drill sergeants eyes..... *inhales* priceless.
Its like i can see the last remnants of his will to live leaving his body.
1996 lmao! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I got in so much trouble as a squad leader at MCRD San Diego for laughing at a recruit who was getting broke down just like that. I got my job back and never laughed again. That was on point!
I just finished basic at Fort Leonard Wood Missouri and I literally cant argue with this. Basic was nothing like what I’d expected
