    Even though it was 34 years ago, I remember those days like it was just yesterday. Everything a drill instructor did was done to instill discipline, confidence, and strength into the recruits. People who see it as brainwashing have no idea what they are talking about, and it is still as effective today as it was when I was in boot camp.

    • @this_mfr
      @this_mfr 9 ปีที่แล้ว +56

      Technically...it is brainwashing, but not the kind that most people know brainwashing as. It's more like paradigm shifting than brainwashing. But, nonetheless, Drill Instructors are taught how to adjust the way people think and motivate people through punishment and how to alter behavior through environment.
      A civilian is not ready for the struggles of combat and a DI is supposed to empty your brain of softness and slow thinking and instill instant reaction, discipline, and the ability to process 100's of things at once.
      So...yes, it's brainwashing. But the kind that makes you more efficient. There a lot of people out there whose brains could use a washing....
      DI's have a lot more training and knowledge of psychology than most people think.

      ***** hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, you sir are hilarious. I guarantee you will be more exhausted than you ever have been before. That was a pretty tame smoke session, based on the types of games they were playing it's a new plt and the guys on the quarter deck are squadleaders and guide. That was just an integrity check to see who would slack and not sound off when they thought he wasn't looking. Thats why he didn't go berserk on them the few times they went feet instead of face or back. Boot camp would take you and your bench/squat/deadlift maxes and bend them over and let the green weeny go to town.

    This DI has expressed great skill in multitasking and ensuring that recruits were instructed in a timely fashion. I didn't see it back then as a recruit for obvious reasons, but now I can see the level of considerations that DI's take in ensuring that IT is effective yet keeping in mind of potential injury. observe at 4.08, the recruits are nearing the point of exhaustion and the majority resort to using their knees for support. The DI makes a proper decision to switch them to their backs. I don't know how it was for you guys, but when I was being IT'ed, crunches were godsend. Ultimately, for the few of you who think DI's are a bunch of screaming muscle heads only seeking to cause your life to be a living hell (partially they are) , think objectively and consider that there is more to it than what you just initially see. There is so much more to the intent.

      Don't ask Boot Camp is exactly the same as it was years ago. I went through in 2001 platoon 3019, Lazy Lima, 3rd Battalion. They have always had a time card and a watch since the 1960s when the SOP came out for them. There is a camera there, they are not going to push any abuse when the know the video is being taken. Our DIs, when we went up north, before we got our 3rd phase guidon, took our flag and ripped it from us and we were trying to get it from them, they took it to the head and pissed on it.
      Of course we didn't know that we were getting our 3rd phase guidon, so we were all pissed off not knowing what the hell was going on. Marines are Marines and boot camp is just as strenuous, both mentally and physically as it always was.
      I don't like the, " when I was in, it was hard as hell, these days the military is soft". These recruits are being trained to become basically trained Marines and some will go into urban combat which is the nastiest type of combat there is because it is face to face and very personal. It is killing someone's family member because they fired at your humvee, then searching their home right in front of their family members.
      These Marines are no soft at all, they are smarter, better trained both mentally and physically then they have ever been.

    5.5 out of 10 BUT it is only because the camera was on. Anyone reading, I was apart of Platoon 3024 in 2005 and graduated April 1st. Had 7 total DI's as our first 4 were "fired" on Training Day 45 due a to a recruit drowning investigation. Originally, we had Sgt Huff, Sgt Hall, and Sgt Howard with SDI Staff Sergeant Richardson. They were called Triple H, I know, a nice touch ;) Then we had SDI Staff Sergeant Garcia, Staff Sergeant Raynor, and Sergeant Ragsdale. Ragsdale was a beast at what we called in 2005 "Quarterdecking". Funny time at the rifle range...Richardson was pissed, left us after chow around 5:45pm and turned Triple H loose on our asses. Crush the house, build the house, all squad leaders and guide getting slayed on the quarterdeck for 2 hours, 4 recruits filling mop buckets of water and soap and dumping them all over the floor, glasses, sea bags, racks, boots, hell, anything that could move was moved, then we had to clean it all up with the towels that we had to push on the floor, I shit you not, they must have dumped 1,000 gallons of water and soap, and we all got worked. Probably built and crushed the house (for those not familiar, this is picking up every rack and pushing them together, then taking them apart in the squad bay) at least 8 times. Funny shit. Also, on the quarterdeck, they used to require teamwork. Recruit A does not have a straight back, then we all don't and we had to get it that way. Obviously, we would get mad at each other and this only fueled the DI. "Oh, you wanna talk on my quarterdeck? Good, let's talk about getting that back straight!!!!!"

  • @Rameus

    The fondest memory I have of boot camp was lining up in formation for morning chow and hearing my DI screaming my name. As I ran into the squad bay, the DI tore my rack mates rifle off the bunk and proceeded to forward butt stroke me in the chest. I literally flew back like ten feet in the air. Picking myself up off the floor the DI gracefully walked over to me and explained why I had just gotten forward butt stroked to the chest. I could not understand a fucking word he said, this was the first full day of pick up, so I just screamed yes sir, no sir, aye aye sir. I finally understood a few days after when some one else got the same treatment but worse. Marine Corps Boot camp isn't a joke. The PT is was easy. Living with the DI's another story. After the first month and a week everything all meshes up and you start to understand the method. One of the hardest jobs I ever had and would never want to trade that experience for another.

      J Siebelink your weapon is just like a person to them, maybe even more important. You never leave a weapon behind and unattended. In boot camp you are responsible for you, the person next to you, and the person behind you. So that morning we were headed out for the day, everyone had their rifles and my rack mate was "early" chow. What they don't tell you is if your rack mate is not there and everyone is leaving. You are suppose to get his weapon and bring it with you that way when he returns from where ever, he will have his rifle. "With out me my rifle is useless, With out my rifle I am useless".

      MPKingpin No, not the name tape. In prep for the bn co inspection, we (like all recruits were/are expected to) had to mark our name on everything, i.e. collar of blouse, inside of trouser waistband on the left, belt, cover, etc., and I asked him what it was suppose to say. Since he was in cammies, he tilted his head forward and showed me the inside of his blouse collar, which had it actually stitched in, as opposed to the iron-ons that all recruits and most Marines use (if they're squared away, for JOB, regular chucks inspections, etc.). But if that's not enough, I'm pretty sure I looked him up via MOL before and it showed his name as I said in the last comment.

    Our DI's used to make us do mountain climbers and bend and thrust on the quarterdeck for so long that we'd have pools of sweat underneath us. Once I had my boot hit that sweat and my leg shot straight out causing my knee to hit the deck hard. I was laying there grabbing my knee and the DI was kicking me to get back into position. Of course, that was back when they the DI's were allowed to get away with striking a recruit. I went through PI in late Aug '77.
    Then there was doing PT in the "Rose Garden" which was simply grass with lots of sandspurs. Those sandspurs would be driven into every part of your body and your hands would be bloody. Of course there were sand fleas, the DI's would not allow us to swat, slap or scratch the sand fleas that were biting our necks and ears. We would stand there at attention until we heard the command "ATTACK" which would allow us a few precious seconds to wipe out the sand fleas until we heard the next command "RECOVER" which put us back at attention once again. Those were the days.

All branches are part of the U.S. Armed Forces for a REASON, and each has a different mission, but common objective!! You seem to be a cocky bastard, who only respects himself and other Marines! I respect ANYONE, in all branches that have the balls to serve!! I respect the Marines, but let's be honest here...they shove the idea that they are the best, down young recruits throats, and they believe it!! The proper statement would be...the United States Armed Forces are the best fighting force in the world!! BOTTOM LINE...stop disrespecting other people, that are NOT in the Corps, but are still serving their country!! You want to talk shit...talk shit to people that do NOT have the balls to serve!!! Better yet...don't talk shit at all!! Too many shit talking motherfuckers around!! REMEMBER...military service is not for everyone!

Once I hit Blue Phase(Last Army Training Phase) DS Harp was now in mentor mode and shared with us late one night during mail call that he was a Marine Corp Sergeant for 8 years before transitioning into the Army. He said it was like taking a less stressful position. This really but the fear in us. To this day 17 years ago I keep my edge on and bearing in full effect thx to that Marine and Army DS. After watching hundreds of Marine Corp Drill Instructor videos I can see DS Harp in every single one of them. All have that same intensity you will not find anywhere else.

      Yes Ricky lets compare training right after bootcamp you know when it really counts. You know skills you can you use the rest of your life. The Marines don't even come close to what the Air Force can do.

      You are correct but for the plus-up for the war in Afghanistan, Quebec company was re-established to accommodate the increase in recruit numbers required by the increase in troop strength. At that time, the Marine Corps was authorized at a max strength of 180,000. With the plus-up, we had to increase total Marine Corps strength to 202,000. Currently, 4th Battalion (Female recruits) is made up of November, Oscar and Papa Companies. Quebec company had not been stood-up since the Vietnam war. I shot this during Quebec Company's last cycle before it was once again stood-down. Their barracks was a small building across from the rifle range.
      From the 3rd Battalion website: "From 2007 through 2009, 3rd RTBn. re-established Quebec Company in order to facilitate the mandated training of an additional 28,000 Marines."

    I lived on the quarter deck in the early eighties with no cameras to tell what happened , pure punishment. I excepted no less to be a legendary Marine, beatings, abuse part all of being a Marine , Pure punishment 24/7 . I excepted no less that's why I joined. There was no TH-cam to give heads up what to except . Still a brotherhood only one can dream of.'

    Enlisted in January 1966. PI was not easy but I learned. It’s not hard to understand Instructor. My instructors always took us outside for the hard PT’ing. I retired in 2004. In Vietnam 12/20/1966- 07/14/1969 came back to Hospital. Sent to instructor school. Harder then basic recruit training.. VN hardest place, east Africa second hardest place. Been to 50 Nations, lived in many, ship board for two years ( hated that) Many can’t comprehend military life. When your 17 PI makes you a man. I had no parents, so Marine Corp was my family.

      Lol trust me we had plenty of sandpits surrounding these barracks. I was in Platoon 3092 when this was being filmed. We lived on the rifle range. Quebec Company. Away from mainside. Meaning no1 came to save us lol. Main parade deck would hve a black flag for drill. We'd go back to our shitty, cracked parade deck and it was green flg all day lol outside drilling. But teust me we had olenty of days in the sand pit. Im talking at reveille right before chow. Still in skivvies and socks lol

      There's times for the Pit and there's times for f*ck-f*ck games in The House. Although the Pit changed right before we graduated after the Crucible in 2002. A kid died from overheating/exhaustion so they force them to smoke recruits in the open now in sand pits and there's a time limit now I believe.
