It wasn't any of that nice talking or taking there cover off to sweet talk with us. What happen to the Corps .All this sweet talk bs. We are the fighting force and i sure wouldn't want no dam punk girly boys on my fire team.

      Back in those days, this was the only place you saw an E5 sergeant. Here or in a recruiting office. At that time, B duty kept most E5s out of the fleet until right before they picked up E6. I rarely saw one. I always had a corporal as a squad leader and a staff sergeant as a platoon sergeant. The only rarer birds you saw were master gunnys (they were mostly in training units, MCLBs, and supply shops).

    Music to my ears. I went to MCRD San Diego Aug-Nov 1989 Platoon 3075. Just had a nephew ship off to San Diego a couple weeks ago. This is the day that every Marine remembers. I love the sense of calm you get the first few days at Receiving. DI's aren't really going crazy, just a lot of being rushed around...and then you form it up and go to your real platoon. Series Commander is all calm, the Senior is calm, then come these monsters! Love it.

    😂 Emptying out perfectly arranged foot lockers coz one recruit f*cks up! Of all the mean spirited things to do. I remember it like yesterday back in 1993. The DIs had us empty out those monster skybags thatt some of the shorter girls barely reached hanging at the back of those bunk beds. Best part was running repeatedly up and down the stairs. I was on the "quarterdeck" team always, even when I did nothin wrong. Good chaotic times at Parris Island. Fattest mosquitos or sand fleas exist there for perfect tortire during drill inspections. Lesson learned, use that bug spray or else endure the bites from the little buggers. They go inside your ears and attempt to go in your nostrils. One trick is to quietly blow them away from your face without getting caught. I got caught doing one quick dig when one sand flea made it to my ear canal. I couldn't just allow it to get completely in there😅.

    A few years ago, a great many mothers of recruits complained openly about the way their children were treated during boot camp. It went so far that the DOD announced that changes would be made in training. I am of the school that potential enlistees be told in advance what would be expected of them at boot camp. The parents and their kids should be asking TOUGH questions of the recruiters. We are talking about possibly the biggest life change their children will experience. Succeed or fail, it will stay with them for life.

      Yes it has changed. I was there in 1973 they called you names and made fun of your parents then. They had the motivation and CCP platoons back then where you were PT'ed to death. I was there 3 years ago for a family day and Graduation and they were PT'ing in sneakers, I just laughed my ass off. A lot has changed there.

    • @this_mfr
      @this_mfr 7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      I went in 2005. They called us names, played mind games (I remember being crammed into the head with 80 recruits and we had to stand in the toilets to fit), and motivation platoon was still there, known as "Pork Chop Platoon" or PCP.
      The reason we PT in sneakers is because studies have proven that PT'ing in boots causes injuries and the Marine Corps is far more injury aware then it used to be. In other words, they are looking at maintaining the highest level of readiness possible.
      This video is from the 90's, before the Corps switched to digital camo, and I'm blown away at how soft the DI's were back then.
      They must have recruited demons as DI's after 9/11 because my boot camp experience was nothing like this.

    • @bhkidd
      @bhkidd 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Soft, no. If you notice at the beginning of the video, there was a gunny with a canvas belt in the picture. Probably a depot inspector. They had to be good until later, when the inspector and cameras were gone. Also, during this era, SDIs usually wanted to get through this initial inventory with all the recruits actually having everything they were supposed to have. The bad games usually happened later in the day.

    Left the Corps in 1980 !
    And after watching dozens upon dozens of these various , " Marine " Boot camp videos, I believe that having these videos, takes the edge off the recruit !
    As the D.I.'s lose their advantage of,
    " Shock ond Aw " that else would be intact !
    Just as not knowing what to expect on the battlefield, keeps your head on a swivel, and in the game, so should going to Boot camp be !
    Seems too, that the already changes made, and ones of long standing, Military courtesies being considered, are in my opinion attacks from within the Government itself !
    And with that, to the detriment of the safety of the United States !
    Since the Genie is already out of the bottle, I doubt it's going back in !
    Sad as it is !
    Just my Two cents !
