I got a counseling statement for inciting mutiny(not on a boat?) For telling multiple people to f${k off after getting the you should do this so I can start my 4 day early while you work chat
As an E-4 I was a COL’s aid in Iraq and ran to grab us lunch before going on movement. I was carrying two to go plates and cups etc. This Captain chewed my ass hardcore for not saluting as he approached..... So at dinner I got 15 of my buddies and I had them space about 3 meters apart and walk past this dude on his way to dinner. At the very end of the line I rendered that glorious salute and could see the utter disgust on his face from having to move arm so much.
when i was with 10th mountain, 2-22, my buddy had gotten promoted from e-4 to e-5, so we partied hard in the barracks that night he got promoted. anyway, i ended up getting extra duty for 3 weeks for fraternization and emptying all the fire extinguishers in the barracks, and my newly minted e-5 buddy received no punishment. climb to glory!
Yup. Same thing happened to me on Camp Pendleton. I was in the middle of a traffic stop in a parking lot while talking to dispatch over the radio, this lieutenant crossed in between my vehicle and the other driver’s vehicle for whatever reason and walked up to me to say “hey MP, I guess we don’t salute officers now?”.
I was in the Marine Corps air wing, had to do a fod walk every morning, and i was in charge of the fod program, to make a long story short, out of like 300 marines, only 10 showed up, and when the paper worked was being routed, i called the whole command out, and got page 11, and a month of extra duty, and chewed out by every E-6 and above for like 2 days straight. P.S. the good thing that cam from it is i didn't have to run that program anymore.
I used to be in Marine Air Wing. I know what you mean. I was in charge of the shop's tool program though. I was the lowest ranking NCO in that position doing most of the work. We didn't get any hits on the major inspections when I was in charge ,but somehow one of my Staff Sergeant's got recognized at the award formation. Long story short, later on I only made one minor mistake and I got replaced by the guy that said something about it. I was a little irritated. Since it was my first mistake ,but I was kind of glad. Because that's less stress for me.
@@jonathancasteel6243 Yea it always sucks to see a senior leader get awarded for something others work especially if they had little to no involvement. On top of that those leaders would go along with it instead of pointing the finger at the ones who should be awarded. Thats not every case of course
Been there! I licensed and trained 800 Marines with a 97 average grade on my own as a Lance, my Cpl got a NAM for the 800 license(he spent the work day with my Sgt in the barracks, my Sgt got a beautiful fit rep, then I messed up one line of a verbal report to him after a 16 hour day and he beat my ass(he did semi pro MMA outside the Corps and gave me shit pro cons.
Yall should do some more "10 types of _____ you'll find in the military". And do one on mechanics and those type of support MOS's. Loved yall stuff for a long time now thanks for the laughs
Man, those are the ones that got me into Drew's channel. "These (swish) are the ten (swoosh) types of NCOs you'll (swish) find in the military. Number 10: The I Don't F@*kin' Care NCO..." 😀
Gotta admit, you guys take me back, like 40 yrs ago, love your titles "HI- SPEED" an "LOW DRAG". Always makes my day when you guys throw a vid out, thx.
I had the same thing happen at Gettysburg range on Leonard Wood in basic. General comes out and I didn't salute because it's a simulated combat environment. DS goes completely off, XO asks why I didn't salute and I told him in a combat environment I'd have marked a general officer for enemy combatants. He kicks my battle buddy and I loose and talked to my commander and 1Sgt. That DS pulled cq for like a month straight. 🤣
I could listen to your stories for hours tbh, it’s good hearing these kinds of stories knowing how fucked up the military used to be and seeing traces of it today.
Back when I was enlisted, my Plt Sgt had a thing. If you (the TC) threw a track on an FTX you'd get CQ duty the next Saturday night. Well, three FTX's in a row his tank throws track so, true to his word, he does CQ duty. But, that's not the story. The story is, he figures out myself and the other enlisted TC in the platoon were sneaking into the motor pool and loosening his inside end connectors. The smoking was epic, followed by several weeks of Saturday CQ.
Y’all should really do more of these. Especially when you talk about leadership, I plan on going in as a officer and y’all are helping me not be that guy. Thanks you damn legends.
If you want to go the officer route, just don't let it go to your head. A lot of officer's, especially the ones who were never enlisted, go straight to power-tripping as soon as they put on the uniform. Enlisted will always give the rank respect, but if you think the rank's what gives you authority rather than doing your job and helping out everyone around you, you'll never have the respect of those you serve with.
Man, my first wife was pregnant during our annual training, At the time I was a 60 gunner, of course we had 9mm for side arms. I ended up leaving early to go home for the birth of our first child. Everybody got back and they were missing a 9mm. Nobody knew where I lived. The other gunner drove to my hometown, and the local PD didn't know who I was. All the guys were locked down. But, no shit I took home a 9mm.
I left an M4 in the USO at FOB Tiger in Sinjar back in the day. I had this sudden realization at like 0200. I ran the quarter mile in untied boots, PT shorts, and a field jacket liner. When I got there I busted in and found it in the same spot. I snatched it and broke contact at combat speed. I win.
😂 gosh watching your videos bring back memories of the time I was in. Active Duty is totally different then civilian life. Been out for 10years now. Was 25U (communications/radio) went in back in 2005. “Smoked”was the term used when I was in.
Had some of my soldiers go to lunch without telling me. I had to make intersecting range cards (249 los) from our location all the way to where they went to lunch, over a mile. They never left without telling me again.
I like these videos... takes me back. Good ole hour or so smoke session never hurt anyone, or that's what is said 😂. I was infantry 10 years and se didnt have females. I got out in 09 though so anything after that I didn't keep up with. Oh the stories that could be told if all the veterans in here got together. 😂😂
I had a sham job when I got promoted to E4. I got to work 27 hrs on. 2 days off. I had my own DOD security guard and govt vehicle. For 1 year. I rarely saw my squad leader or anyone from my chain of command. So one day I go to the class 6 and pick up a 40oz and food at the chow hall. I got back to the ASP and nothing was going on. My security guard told me. He would wake me up when someone stopped by. I started drinking and passed out. I woke up to a full bird kicking me off my cot. The 40oz bottle smashed and I rolled all over it. I was cut up and bleeding. This Col was a Ranger and he saw my last name and said. “ I heard of you” 6 months before that day. I found 2 of his soldiers passed out in a bunker from the forklift running and it displaced the o2. I pulled them out of the bunker and saved their lives. I was put in for a Soldier’s medal. All I got was a Arcom. The Col told me he told my commander it was bullshit and what a dirtbag he was. As I was at attention the whole time. The Col told me I have 2 choices. An field grade Article 15 or I have to do what he wants for a weekend. A few weeks later my 1sgt and commander call me in the office. They told me I had orders to help the Rangers for the weekend. They could not understand why they wanted me to help out. When I showed up at the Ranger bat. The Col made me go out to a rifle range with him. I had to wear my class A uniform and do the running man. I did a 20 mile roadmarch and had to roll in the mud many times. Then I had to do a police call back at the range. It was a long weekend. My class A uniform was trashed. At the end the Col thanked me and told me to never fuck up again. I saluted him and went back to the barracks and slept 18 hrs. A few weeks later I got a AAM for that weekend. The award was for my help at a range and I was in charge of the operations of the safety and range etc. For about a year this Col would visit my ASP and look for me. He would bullshit and he told me he knew it drove my command nuts he knew me and after each visit. The Col would talk shit to my commander and 1sgt. I paid dearly when the visits stopped…
Getting hazed is what I know it as, that word sounds a lot cooler lol. I passed out in a shower after a bottle of rum. Flooded part of the barracks..... lmao
I got the shit smoked out of me in AIT. Got caught drinking and had to mow red lion field with an old school push mower and edge it with scissors. By the time I was done edging it I had to re now it. Then I had to strip and wax battalion. An E6 made me do it but the last laugh was mine. It was a permanent flooring so it need not be stripped. Long story short the E6 took over my mowing duties. Fun times. Scouts out!!
I never once got smoked in basic/AIT individually. Only the times we got smoked as a platoon. I did get 2 article 15s, one in AIT and one at a reserve unit, but never smoked. AIT article 15 was for a fist fight with the platoon leader, unit article 15 was for firing a blank at an officer cadet and setting his MILES gear off (he asked what the first thing I was going to do in a combat situation was 💁). Guess when I decided to go rouge I just went way past smoking level and went straight to the big leagues 🤔😂
My favorite part of this video... Is how it started with smokeouts to badass females they've been enlisted with. This was amazing on two separate fronts!
In Basic Training we had our MOPP 4 Gear and the Drill Sergeant yells, "There is a blast to your left. You have 6 minutes to get into your gear. Go, go go!" A couple seconds later, I hear someone say, "Drill Sergeant, I brought the wrong bag." I look over and there is dirty laundry all around this guy's feet. The Drill Sergeants were laughing so hard they couldn't even smoke the guy, but they quickly recovered and started smoking him.
One of the times I got smoked, I was basic. DS giving some hip pocket training about patrols or some shit. He was saying something something then I heard "drop down". Not sure why, but I said "and get your eagle on girl". He just looked at me and said "you look like you can do a lot of flutter kicks private. Show me". To this day we're good. He's become a mentor to me.
We had a new soldier join our unit, already had 3 NDs. We went on exercise and tge soldier lost his weapon and we had to walk through the whole training area. He asked his Sergeant what he was likely to happen to him. Sergeant replied he was probably going to jail. He was quickly placed on suicide watch
Fort Drum otherwise know as the frozen tundra. I live not to far from it. It snows here in June. Haha. I spent a lot of time on that base working for a contractor. I froze my butt off in January/February pouring concrete bunkers down in the ammo depo!
When I was active duty in the early eighties, we heard about a unit which had lost a pair of night vision goggles in the woods in Germany. That unit spent an additional two weeks in the field looking for them. What I think happened is some German civilian found them.
When I was in AIT the doors to our rooms automatically locked as soon as we closed the door, and I got used to this. When I went to permanent party we had to lock our doors ourselves, and I kept forgetting to lock the damn door. If the MPs walked thru and checked a door, and it was unlocked, then someone was getting written up. I ended up having to mop and wax the CO's office in the middle of the night because I couldn't keep the door locked. Guess what I did after I finished waxing the CO's office and left the office. Yep, I didn't lock the damn door. Top was pissed. However, the CO said that he stopped in during the night and he was pretty sure he left the door unlocked. I have no idea why he said that, but 40 years later I'm still grateful that that Captain saved my ass.
I fell asleep in boot camp after firewatch. As revile played, the platoon all stood there in their tighty wightys and then me in my utility bottoms and tee-shirt. One of these kids is doing his own thing, one of these kids is not like the other... Pain, pain, pain. Semper Hollywood.
Funny, I was in Ft. Campbell doing a reset mission and apparently someone stole night vision goggles and was trying to sell them at a local pawn shop. Too bad it was easy to figure out which one pair was missing.
I had fun when it was appropriate but I was known for being on it when shit really hit the fan being a medic when someone was injured I was on it I knew my job and I was great at it.
As a Private, I was slapped by a female Corporal. She asked me to tell her the pick up line. So I said to her "you know what you are what you eat, by tomorrow morning I want to be you ". She was charged as the other corporals hated her and used the incident to have her punished
I didn't get smoked but I got chewed out by a captain for calling him out his bull shit. I had a soldier that was suffering from shingles and blacked out from pain, collapsed and hit his head on a door frame. He went to the emergency room and they told him to go to his aid station. The captain in charge said the earliest opening he had was in two days. I got wind of this and was furious. I got the green light from my chain to go over his head and go to the brigade surgeon. We told the BS that he was suffering badly and had hit his head and hasn't even been checked for a concussion and that the aid station was giving him the run-around when he needed to be seen immediately. The BS was pissed. My soldier was seen that day and I accompanied him to his appointment. I was then chewed out by the captain for going over his head, but I didn't care a lick as my soldier got the care he needed.
As A retired E-7 from the MARINE CORPS INFANTRY 2/4 1995 to 2017 MOS 0317 I can verify that most of this is true, but in the MARINE CORPS we don't have much interactions with female MARINES, in combat Zones or forward areas outside of Green ZONE
Some people forged my name onto a document that forces me to be financially responsible for a Brother's kids from a family that I didn't know anything about. . they are allowed to steal half of my disability check(major depression) and anything else that comes for me. Including take possession of property and use my money to buy other property

When I was active duty in the early eighties, we heard about a unit which had lost a pair of night vision goggles in the woods in Germany. That unit spent an additional two weeks in the field looking for them. What I think happened is some German civilian found them.
You guys are awesome
When I was in AIT the doors to our rooms automatically locked as soon as we closed the door, and I got used to this. When I went to permanent party we had to lock our doors ourselves, and I kept forgetting to lock the damn door. If the MPs walked thru and checked a door, and it was unlocked, then someone was getting written up. I ended up having to mop and wax the CO's office in the middle of the night because I couldn't keep the door locked. Guess what I did after I finished waxing the CO's office and left the office. Yep, I didn't lock the damn door. Top was pissed. However, the CO said that he stopped in during the night and he was pretty sure he left the door unlocked. I have no idea why he said that, but 40 years later I'm still grateful that that Captain saved my ass.
I fell asleep in boot camp after firewatch. As revile played, the platoon all stood there in their tighty wightys and then me in my utility bottoms and tee-shirt.
One of these kids is doing his own thing, one of these kids is not like the other...

Funny, I was in Ft. Campbell doing a reset mission and apparently someone stole night vision goggles and was trying to sell them at a local pawn shop. Too bad it was easy to figure out which one pair was missing.
more of these please

My buddy in the marines during basic was made to look at his reflection in DI swords and yell “I’m not crazy, you are” for an extended period of time
I had the same issue in basic with my last name being Seegraber. Everyone to this day pronounces is Seegrabber at first lol
I enjoyed this video
As a Private, I was slapped by a female Corporal. She asked me to tell her the pick up line. So I said to her "you know what you are what you eat, by tomorrow morning I want to be you ". She was charged as the other corporals hated her and used the incident to have her punished
Bro I want to do that in the bayonet course. But been smoked a few so I was just, I’m pretty sure it’s not blood 😂😂😂😂 but I’ll go with it.
I didn't get smoked but I got chewed out by a captain for calling him out his bull shit. I had a soldier that was suffering from shingles and blacked out from pain, collapsed and hit his head on a door frame. He went to the emergency room and they told him to go to his aid station. The captain in charge said the earliest opening he had was in two days. I got wind of this and was furious. I got the green light from my chain to go over his head and go to the brigade surgeon. We told the BS that he was suffering badly and had hit his head and hasn't even been checked for a concussion and that the aid station was giving him the run-around when he needed to be seen immediately. The BS was pissed. My soldier was seen that day and I accompanied him to his appointment. I was then chewed out by the captain for going over his head, but I didn't care a lick as my soldier got the care he needed.
As A retired E-7 from the MARINE CORPS INFANTRY 2/4 1995 to 2017 MOS 0317
I can verify that most of this is true, but in the MARINE CORPS we don't have much interactions with female MARINES, in combat
Zones or forward areas outside of Green ZONE
What do you think about this video?

Respect the chain-of-command. It works well when it's used.
