This reminds me about the US Marine’s Birthday sometime ago. It reminds me about the part where the oldest marine got a slice of the cake and the youngest marine got a slice of cake after, as passing down the wisdom, confidence, strength, etc.
I still remember my DI’s from 50+ years ago. SSgt Ross SDI, SSgt Lewis and SSgt Ables. Ran behind them and they had printed on their shirts. War is our business and Business is good. Medavac Mike 3\5 1st Marine Division. RVN Arizona Territory. 1969 Cpl. 0331 Dark Horse Semper Fi.
SSgt Stephens, Plt 1041 D Co., was my SDI in 1999 at Parris Island. I will never forget him and our platoon DIs: SSgt Wilkerson, SSgt Clark, SSgt Smiley.
Wait SSgt Smiley we had a 1stSgt smiley on the island I wonder if that was the same guy in 2009? That would be wild. He was our company 1stsgt if I remember correctly
Thank you for everything you have done for this great country that I am very proud to live in .I want to be in the USMC when I grow up And I thank you very much for what you do for USA. ❤️❤️❤️

@@willdockery1829 - I was a Hollywood Marine. They said, first thing, “You will never forget the names of your Drill Instructors.” How true. SSgt Contreras SSgt Wilde SSgt Byalegloi- I actually liked this guy, even though he was mean af. Underneath, I could see he was a great guy. Go get a beer with kinda guy. He only let his guard down one night at the very end of Boot Camp. A story- the very last day of Boot Camp, I was a pfc, in charge of 4 guys taking the sheets and blankets back to Supply. Of course, you marched everywhere. As I was calling cadence, we marched past a friend from a different platoon, who was sweeping up the sidewalk. He stuck his broom into the middle of my little formation, we all tripped, and started laughing. A really mean DI from another platoon saw us, went ballistic as only a DI could. He took his Platoon Commander black belt off as he yelled at me. Doubled it up, proceeded to beat me across my face four times for having a sloppy formation. Remember that like it was yesterday, 52 years later. Actually never held it against the guy. That’s how Marine I was. I guess I still don’t. Most snowflakes these days wouldn’t understand that.
I love the United States Marine Corps. Unfortunately, I am not a Marine and never was. Nonetheless, I am proud of the USMC and I admire this great American institution. I have meet many Marines, some where very critical of the Marine Corps, but all were proud to be Marines. There in lies the secret behind the success of the USMC. It is the individual Marines that make the Corps.

MASTERS OF DRILL?? I served as a Marine from 1979-1999 retiring as a CWO3. I've notice on these videos from recent years the DIs use a very exagerated arm swing when marching. We were taught and used the 6" to the front. 3" to the rear rule Meaning 6 inches to the front of your outside trouser seams and 3 inches to the rear. That appears to no longer be the case as the DIs use the 18 to front and 12 to the rear rule. When did this change??? Thanks
@@ChineseChicken1 I hear ya! We did not have a "family day" before graduation but we did make a PX run. Everyone in my platoon had to buy at least one new pair of boots. that's because our heels were rounded off
@@myparceltape1169 I don't think so. I've seen a good many of these Boot Camp vids and the DIs are all doing that very long arm swing. I think maybe the Corps has changed the Drill Manual since I retired.
Drill Intstructor will be the first ones to tell you that Marines are the best of the best. They walk the walk and talk the talk. Don’t waste any time in basic training.
Didn't need a senior. School when I was a senior drill instructor 94-96 you learn by pushing platoons as a green belt and you were chosen and advanced if you had What it Took no special school , paying attention to detail and other drill instructors
@@cadetflamen12 hey if your not strong or fast take some time and work on it. I wasn't at the time. And I got by you can to. Just don't give up and the drill instructors won't give up on you
Koko - DI’s are not sadists, to be afraid of. They are the most professional instructors you will ever meet. What they do by screaming all the time has been called ‘stress inoculation’. Getting you used to thinking and acting under stress so you can handle stressful situations. Don’t worry, DI’s can and do recognize effort. You set your mind to never stopping trying, and you will shine in Boot Camp. You go, girl! You got this!
I am kind of curious as to why a sergeant E - 5 is at the SENIOR drill instructor course. I'm not saying she's unqualified, i just think that normally that would be a course for a more seasoned staff NCO.
In addition to Sr DI being performance based, that NCO is probably in the E-6 promotion zone so she is ramping herself up for what is waiting for her down the road. It's a no brainer.
Rediculeous to have a senior d I course those seniors have been chosen and don't need this they are leaders know how to follow a schedule and have been groomed and tested in the trenches. Whats next sgt major school so that they learn how to sit around as figureheads properly. How about a school for captains to learn how to be commanding officers.
My drill instructor had a 40 inch bust, you oughta see her do the bends and thrusts! Oh wait, like thump calls and redline brigs, there aren't bends and thrusts in the Corp anymore. Plt. 140, A co. May-Aug. 1973. Burton, Leopold, and Barber.

Why does it not carry 40% better pay than your standard DI? That is too big of a load to carry without a worthwhile return. CMC welcome to reply.
