- Marine Corps. Bootcamp training video of Lima Company.
Parris Island, South Carolina. Graduation Date: 2022-04-08.
Brendan (Kevin) Polin was part Lima Company.
Thank you so much for sharing this video. I saw my son. My son struggled with his running. Before he went to boot camp he trained on Tuesdays and Thursdays. He also went running on his own. Boot camp is to train them to become good Marines not to go to boot camp already trained. It takes hard work and they did it. They are now Marines. So proud of them.
All love and protection to your son!
@@guyvizard549 Thank you. Blessings
Tell your son to practice stress positions.
Push ups
Leg lifts
Squats ect anything if you held the position long enough you will struggle.
@@BaffinSailor Thank you for the suggestion. I will certainly let him know. He is getting better at running because their instructor has them running everyday to keep them in shape because they are in school and he doesn't want them to get out of shape. Blessings
He did good. They always tell you to be in shape beforehand because it's better that way haha.
my sister was at Parris island marine boot camp recently. I am proud to say she survived and is now a marine.
Yeah... they're lookin... good... these wookies, fucking disgrace.
I was there in 1988. Wouldn't change a thing! Thank you and Semper Fi!!
1981 Oorah DEVIL DOG. Way different now it seems.
1990... ooh rah
@vinniecostrllano...were there females in your Plt?? What am I looking at here??
Please tell me.....Did male recruits train with female recruits??
@@garynelson9538 I was in 3rd batt I company January 88. Not a female to be seen. Think it should be that way now.
I cant wait to join the USMC, I have been wanting to join this branch since I was 7 it was always something special in my heart I always get motivated because of these videos.
Absolutely do not do it. If you can get an ASVAB over 50, go Airforce. Future you will thank me and yourself.
Lol don’t listen to them. Join the Marine Corps and decide that for yourself. I joined and I love it. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
You’re gonna regret joining
It’s nothing special I’m in Mos School right now I’m just glad I chose reserves but I am stronger than I ever was
USMC is a hard life son, ask DI's who have small kids if they want their kid to join the Marines. Most of them say, nope I want my kid to go to college and get a nice paying job. If you want to go in go in as an officer.
While I do see things have changed. I feel like some people in the comments think they were the best recruits the world has ever seen, wish I could see some of you guys in your time to see what a superstar you guys were
@Jeffery comm 'on man!! This is not a Bootcamp. I had it harder in HS during football practice. Most of us were not superstars in Boot Camp. The grueling Training and ever presence of the "demanding beyond understand" DI's made sure we were not superstars. What I see in this Video is sickening. But it will help us defeat ISIS the next go-round......................Until ISIS stop laughing.
Old Marine here. I did my boot camp at Parris Island, 2 Bn, Plt 2018, Oct 1975-Jan 1976. It will be 47 years ago this October. Semper Fi!
Uh ruh!!
Semper fi brother!
@@kevinpasion5281 back at you......Semper Fi!
My fiance went in the marine in 1970 he was in Paris Island 🏝 and he was in vitamam
I didn’t know they did all of this. None of the other videos really show the training. Thanks
Loved all the physical challenges. You go in physically prepared it's all easy AF. The rest is mental games
I was a Hospital Corpsman and we have a special bond with the Marines. They're the best of the best, and we need them more than ever now.
I was a line corpsman with 1st battalion 8th marines from 04 to 07. Some of the hardest, best, and most proud times of my life. And with the technology today I stay in contact with some great men from my platoon
Compared to my Boot Camp in 1977 MCRD San Diego, this is day camp 2022
They decrease the level of intensity when there are cameras around. This literally isn’t at all what it’s like. If there are no officers or cameras in sight, you best believe we were getting hazed like a mother fucker. Especially in the squad bays.
Couldn’t agree more. It’s literally shocking and sad.
1986 MCRD SD agree with you 100% this doesn't even remind me of bootcamp...
Brings back memories, straight shock to your system non stop intensity whew.
Thank you for this! Got to see my kid brother a few times! Lethal Lima!!! Cant wait to see him graduate in a few days
I wish there were films of our pugil stick training in 1956, when we fought with no helmets, no face-mask, no padding of any kind. We wore utility trousers, scivvy shirt, utility cover, and boondockers. I don't know if anyone today believes me.
I am a Marine Veteran, Parris Island 1979 (L.Co). I can see that the baton has been well passed and my Marine Corps is alive, well and in great hands. Semper Fi.
You got to be joking
@@ThirtyPack.He was in during the 70s, hes the one you should take seriously
I have been out of the USMC now for 6 years and I can't help but think of going back. But this time as an officer.
The problem is you have to go thru officer boot camp(OCS).
@@chris-bm7jh OCS is called Officer Candidate School
I went thru Parris Island in 1968 on the way to Viet Nam and if this video wasn't labeled as Marine boot camp, I wouldn't have recognized it as such. It looked like a video of what Air Force basic used to be like. I wish I hadn't seen it.
i was thinking the same thing and i went thru in 94
I just graduated this year, and I can tell you this ain’t it. It’s crazy because I know for a fact our training wasn’t this soft. Then again I was 1st Battalion Charlie Company, so these recruits shown may have been 2nd and 4th battalion.
I just graduated from 3rd Battalion Mike Company and I can tell ya, it was not soft training at all
Well shit, it is 3rd Battalion in this video. Well ig Mike Company trains a little harder than Lima Company
Amen. I went through in 1973. Sad. The Corps is over!!!
Congrats Brendan. I was just watching this video yesterday. My son Mazzo was in platoon 3021 - Apr 8, 2022.
I start in 18 days wish me luck
Semper Fidelis
My dad, RIP, joined the USMCR in January of '42. Boot at PI. Thrown in the mix at the 'canal. Wounded in left bicep, big piece of shrapnel, held it in my hand as a kid. R&R in Melbourne + additional training. Then shipped out to Cape Glouster to capture (2) airfields there. After Glouster lucky dad, shipped out to Peleliu to make Gen. MacAuthur a faux hero. The USMC despised Mac thereafter. Nimitz wanted to cut off materiels to the Japanese and put up a USN embargo and surround the island and starve them out.
On Peleliu and for having balls of steel Dad was awarded the Bronze Star with 'V' device. As a squad leader he advanced 300 yards (twice) to guide his mortar squad to take out a large machine gun nest that was raking a large part of his battalion (5th Marines). He did this both times at night. Using different color flares his squad took out the nest and two week later took out a large mortar that was lobbing 91mm shells on the rear echelon.
He never talked about the war. Transferred back to the state after about (3) years and assigned to a Casualty Company...those Marines who accompany a chaplain to convey the death of a deceased Marine. Never talked about that either. BTW, his PT was landing on the 'canal.
God bless him
You're dad sounds like a great marine!! I was a hospital corpsmen with 8th marines from 04-07. Met some fantastic Marines and men in those 3 years
The stretching has improved at least. I guess that's something.
Best comment! Semper Fi
Man, that's a huge recycle platoon ! 😁😁
I would do this again with the same group of people, with the same DI's, the same time of year, the same of every little detail. Easiest thing ever just do what you're told and keep your head up.
Ttt
I remember seeing Lazy Lima complete their crucible haha. We graduated the week after them
Still remembered my Crucible events. My favorite was the Battle of Guadalcanal event-the nighttime resupply mission.
This is the most comprehensive insight into what to expect during training, thank you.
The marine Corp isn't on my lunch menu after highschool... but I know damn well I wouldn't be choosing this battalion 😂
Changed alot from 1981 !
28:48 DI is getting some of that CS blowing in his face lol
I’m going to the on le in San Diego, and after seeing this video I have to train like hell so that I can at least cope with it during Boot Camp
Practice hiking, san Diego has mountains
This video hurt my soul…..🤦♂️
What has happened to my Corps?
@@rodolfomendez6886 - your corps?? As a taxpayer, it's MY corps!! I pay their salaries, pay for training, and buy their weapons and equipment!!
It's gone too shit looks like
Hahahahaha. I was a lima Company Parris Island hat from 1995-1997. Looks like a kinder, gentler, woke Marine Corps now.
It was because of the cameras for the most part. But overall I wasn't impressed with this platoon albeit was integrated. I'm glad we didn't have a sister platoon.. no offense to my sister Marines lol
Considering there's women now I'm losing confidence in my county's military. War is no place for women.
@@melvinjordan2993 another comment referred to them as a recycle platoon which would actually make some sense to me
Show us your footage and we'll be the judge.
Most of us felt like badasses at the time, and when we watched out footage, we were like "Wow... That was less intense than it felt..."
Was it harder in the 90's? So I hear. I don't have a fricking clue I wasn't there. Are times easier nowadays? You don't have a fricking clue, you're not here either.
That's what we said about you guys 30 years prior. Semper Fi Marine
They were on StarLite Range. Qualified as a recruit there in November 2002, and was a coach on that same range from 2007 - 2009. I helped qual Lima Co. many times. 3rd Bn was always the best Bn to put through the range. However, I may be a little biased on best Bn, 3rd Bn Kilo Lead Series Oct 15, 2002 - Jan 10, 2003
This is Parris Island S.C.???? Looks more like Joint Base San Antonio to me....This is terrifying! What happened to the "Few and the Proud"??
The camera recording is what happened. Idk people havnt figured out yet that 90% of the time any form of bootcamp getting recorded is usually toned down by ALOT so as not to expose what really happens. Once the camera stops, boom it all explodes again.
Tik Tok, wokeness, Obama, Democrats, Liberals, Commies....
@@kennethcole1886 Have you seen any other boot camp on youtube? This is not because of the cameras.
@@dryanmorr yes. Yes i have. I used to serve. And now im losing weight to reenlist IF we get a different president. So all i do is look up these videos. There are tons where the experience is how i went through it.
@@Jaxxon123 I would tell you to go to hell......But you are stinking right-on about this!! I've never NOT been able, to wrap my mind around what I'm seeing until now.
I pray for all of these recruits they look so badly out of shape. Old Corps San Diego 1982 Plt. 3044. God Bless this Country 🙏
When I went through Army BCT in 1985, we never got closer than a few hundred meters of any female recruits. They trained in their own battalion.
98 pi with a sister company and likewise and parris Island only had enough females to train a company every 3 weeks
They do gender integration with training, they’re still kept separate for most other things other than training, and SD has no female recruits at all
the iphone generation. scary.
Tik Tok generation, you mean.
Is boot camp co-ed now?? i remember in 2008 4th platoon was separated from 1st, 2nd and 3rd like the plague. PLT 2018 Golf Company
I am 51 and would run circles around these recruits. They are trying, but they are just not prepared to be savage yet especially in 1st phase.
I want to see you run circles around me and the marines that graduated then. You didn’t see half of what happened here
@@trentkile2643 shut up boot you all are a disgrace to the corps. I’d haze the shit out of you idiots
PARIS ISLAND PLATOON 260 1963 Semper fi
Parris Island Platoon 359 1962 Semper Fi
This is gay, I remember when we had live rounds going over our head. That M60 makes a very peculiar sound.
MEMORIES SWEET MEMORIES USMC 1993 THEY HAVE CHANGED A FEW THINGS SINCE I WENT THROUGH
If we sounded like that, we’d be playing games all day. Always knew Lima could never be like Mike, Kilo, and India.
One of my sons is at Camp Pendalton. The next son is headed to Parris Island this May. Semper Fi
I was Lima company. PLT 3109 back in 2008. We didn't see females unless we went to church and they were on the other side. Crazy to see males and females train together..
I joined the Corps in 1961 i'm having a difficult time relating to modern Marines things have changed not to my liking but that's me. The thought of females training with male recruits weren't even a thought and standards have been lowered.
All the branches are short of personels now ,they don’t want any of them to drop out ,that’s why .
There July 1976, Good Times. Thanks
When are they going to do a push up
I graduated April 23 2021 with Charlie company 1st Bn
Seeing females training with the males is surreal. I can’t imagine that in 1991 when I cycled. Times have definitely changed
And not for the better...
I know. I was in the Army I did OSUT at Ft Benning back in 1996 and recently watched a vid of female recruits training with the males. I was thinking might have been Army policy change, but I see the Marines are doing it too.
It’s weird because I graduated this year and they were adamant with keeping us separate. Then again 1st Battalion is the last battalion on Paris Island MCRD to not have gender integration.
@@kevinpasion5281 that’s good to hear about 1st, as I was 1006, D Co 🇺🇸 Hopefully they can keep it that way.
@@ricks3313 And why is having women and men training together "not for the better"? Wouldn't men and women train show each other they're working as hard, doing the same thing? If anything that sounds like it'd increase respect between recruits.
bootcamp is definitely the easiest thing they'll have to do in their careers. Wait til they are up for 36 hours in a hole some where in the woods lmao
Doesn't happen. Closest thing to combat nowadays is Camp lejune.
@@Ranstone - just don't drink the water!! They say they fixed it...but don't believe it!!
This the new Corps.😭😭😭😭😭
31:02 aint now way that recruit got away with that
1:03:25. The iron ducks is what they called them. I failed twice but made it on my 3rd try.
What happened to Parris Island Boot Camp?! This is SADDD
It didn't even look like this 15-20 years ago. It's pathetic. My beloved Marine Corps is gone.
Went through in 2006, it was NOTHING like this. This is chill and relaxed. And females training with males?? When did that start…
Females is what happened the warrior label no longer applies.
Love the Blue! Kilo!!!
PI 1997 1st Battalion Delta Co. Watching this brings back memories. I can't believe the platoons are gender integrated now.
Don't like this training with the ladies. They need to go back to the old way and separate the men from the women training is a lot better for the men then
When I went through in '56, (Plt 287, 5th Battalion) all the 'Ladies" were trained in 4th Battalion. In Plt 287, Ladies was a somewhat derisive term our DI's applied to those who weren't quite "In tune" with the program !
Agree totally. Most people when they enter any branch of the service are not men and women, but boys and girls. Plus, no matter what the woke military wants to believe, there are still differences between the sexes. Glad I served when I did.
This training looks so depressing, it makes highschool sports look difficult and yet there easy 😭. I'm joining and was expecting people getting smoked every second
What has happened to my beloved Corps?
I can't believe this is the Marine Corps.
It is!!! So sad isn’t it, 1962, Plt 359!!!
Where was this intense physical training he was talking about?
About 34 yrs ago when I went in to earn the title Marine. It’s not the same, and we didn’t train with female recruits….
@@troyglover9599 ...same for me in the Army. Went to basic in 1988 and no co-ed training. Standards were higher too
It doesn't exist anymore.
I went to boot camp in 2009 and if I was acting anywhere close to the way most of these recruits acted. I would have eight drill instructors swarming my ass like a bunch of bees ripping me apart. This isn't boot camp. It's summer camp.
These recruits look pathetic within the first two minutes they all looked like gomar Pyle
Lima Company! Nov 2008! PLT 3105
That Company PT speaks volumes. Hilarious. I graduated from platoon 3135, India Company, 3rd RTB in September 1996. Went to SOI, ITB Company A afterwards. Received orders to Bravo Company, 1st Battalion 8th Marines after school. If we cut boot camp to 8 weeks and added that 4 weeks to SOI, emphasizing LETHALITY over Final Drill preparation then the 12 weeks would be worthwhile.
What the fucking Hell has happened to my beloved Corps.
🙏😎
Not crazy about the coed training, but I guess it is the new Corps. Went there in 74, Semper Fi!!
What an embarrassment the Marine Corps Basic Training has become.
These are marine recruits ? Could have fooled me. 1969 it was a lot different than now.
Going to San Diego on the 29th of august 👍🏾
You're going to enjoy no sleep for 48 hours, and get ready to get dressed by the numbers, (5,4,3,2,1 time's up) and getting thrashed in the sandbox.
So I’m planning on joining in 2024 is the soonest I can go and wanted to know what’s some stuff I should work on
Semper Fi. Tickles my heart wish I could do it all over again.
I don’t even recognize my Corps anymore. This is what happens when leadership fails.
I feel your pain. I literally just talk to my wife about how dangerous a video like this is. She isn't a Marine, hell she's not even a veteran and she fully understands how dangerous a video like this is to the security of our nation.
I really don't know what they are doing? Killing the corps ? If it ain't broke don't fix it we used to say
I started seeing a difference when we got boot drops on my way out in 2017. These nasty boots didn’t know how to wear the uniform, their jobs or how to field day. I’m not talking like they were all lazy. It was from slack ass leadership from NCOs and Officers. The boots didn’t know any better then and I suspect it’s only gotten worse. This is the peacetime Marine Corps now.
@@ethanparker4856 it’s gotten worse by the drop, and most of the good leadership has been out and the ones that stayed turned rotten. it’s a disgrace
I got in 6 months before 9-11. It was mcrd san diego so the females here werent around, thank God. A few of my mos classes were in army installations where we would join daily pt with their people in basic, and ones that were doing their ait. We shared a floor or 2 in their barracks, and got the riot act read right away about do not speak, interact, or be around them. The place had balconies, we would sit there and watch and the grabass they would all play or some kind of flirting wed see just captivated us. Like we couldnt imagine this crap at either depot. Part being a boot, but also the lacking discipline and distractions there are at that age group just seemed detrimental to our common goals. We'd snobbily talk watching thanking God the Marines werent that way. But knowing theres a ton of jobs in the army that are essentially civilian jobs but they couldnt run without those people, and comparing us isnt fair. But the last few times i went through san diego and pi was disappointing. It Seemed to be moving towards what we mocked. I know theres differences that younger Marines are much more capable in. Cant tell you how often we've asked e1-e4 guys to fix or explain some new tech to us. Its becoming a different time, but one where those skills can beat many foes in brand new ways Its just sad that level of a shared experience is changing.
1990....32 years ago Jun 17th.
They really playing Saving private Ryan gunfire, when the Rangers Stormed Normandy.😂
Yes! I know! A recruit mentioned that when we were there.
was here November 2018
Alpha Co, 1st Batt. 1976 💪🇺🇲SEMPER FIDELIS
I spent 1991 thru 1993 in this Company as a Drill Instructor. It absolutely kills me to see male and female train together. The liberals have destroyed my Corps 😢
Is it better to punch or kick first? Also, do I use the front hand or rear hand first. And when kicking do I use the rear leg or front leg first?
Appear weak when you are strong.
Left foot? Not one group was in step!
This is not my Corp. Paris Island 1966
That pink sky is something else ngl
Thank God the Marines are still tough and strong as ever!.
Then they should be at sea tackling somali pirate gangs,boarding ships.Not doing Army jobs.
@@daveratcliffe1016 They are an Infantry Ground Foce as well. Their job isn't just water ops.
@@jedicoolgamer5517 - Remember, only about 12 percent of the USMC are infantry!! The rest are support!!
No offense, but the females didn’t seem to be holding up well.
Graduated Parris Island in AUgust 84
55:19 the girl in the back just completely stops. And what are they in a library? 😂 cant say ive done it myself. But ive seen enough of these over the years. Really hope its just for the cameras or something. But i dis see a couple comments sayimg it was a recycled platoon. 🤷♂️
I go down to MCDR boot camp march 13th anyone else to?
i leave july 2nd 2023 for the marines and im looking at this like it’s easy. my wrestling practice is A LOt more intense than this I thought doing this would be tuff. i am very dissatisfied
Everyone knows bootcamp is easy asf
Bootcamp is mostly mental, also the DIs know when the cameras are around and act nice. I promise that kid getting thrown down the stairwell is not on video lmao. But yeah it’s not too physically difficult until e course
I’m so confused my daughter said it was much harder she just finish papa company.
the marines kick butt.
Seems they lowered the intensity. Sad
its doesn't seem like they lowered the intensity there's literally no intensity anymore and there supposed to go into war, the most intense experience anyone could have
they lowered it for the video
Nah it’s just 3rd and 4th battalion that are like this 1st battalion is the best 2nd isn’t bad but still trash and 3rd and 4th are trash. No offense to anyone but 1st battalion is the best.
Tbh I think we all have biases and thing it was tougher when we went in. I was in boot camp in 2007 and OCS in 2011 and this is par the course for recruits
Went through in ‘99. If this is how it is now, WTF. Males and females integrated as well, or is that for the video? Plt 3105 Lima Co.
This video is so sad to look at to watch these guys walking over the obstacle course cuz they're tired oh my God this is sickening to watch I'm 62 years old and I can run through that obstacle course so fast to this day I never seen guys move this damn slow in my life I play soccer at 62 years old and play 90 minute games and Chase young boys down and eat them for breakfast to this day
We Marines would eat you for breakfast lunch and dinner
@MrRambo50, I'm a 60yr old Marine Corps Vet and like you, I'm still very active. Workout at Power House Gym here in Detroit and still run. This video makes me sick.
Omg i was there in follow series ❤
Well, I hate to say it but that is not the same 13 weeks of hell that I remember. I see a lot of walking around and smiling. The recruits look like they are lost and not in formation, my experience in 1978 was very different, what has happened to my Marine Corps?
Look at these drill instructors and then look at the California Drill instructors from San Diego big difference they say Hollywood marines are made in San Diego well that may have been true back in the day but now It’s at Parris Island better Marines come from San Diego no doubt.
I thinkthe documentary was early 2000s .but ears open eyeballs click was at mcrdsd. And those guys didn't get away with anything. I mean this lot barely even sounds off. Let alone moves with any kind of intensity. They would've been "murdered" as I heard the DI's say in that one. And just speaking from watching several of these never been in myself so not passing judgment
January 1974 platoon 206 Marine Corps simplify
Is this the video from boot camp that the recruits buy while still in training?
It is, but the uploader added a narration from another video.
33:27 lmao my man made her smile a little
My heart hurts
Nice after you put years into the military, to set back and laugh at all of the boot camp Etc. That part was humorous. The part overseas was not. If you are heading into the military, consider carefully.. there are things out there in the world far more dangerous than working in a factory.
Was lima company 2012 3044
