I knew of a guy who wouldn't do tire rotations on his car. His reasoning was that it was a rip off; the tires rotate while you're driving. He applied for the military five times, the limit in Canada, and was rejected because he didn't have the skills needed to be trained for infantry.
USN boot camp 1982. We were issued our dress uniforms which included the trousers for the winter dress blues which had a front flap with thirteen buttons. The question arose, "What is the significance of thirteen buttons?" A bit annoyed, the company commander stammered, "I don't know... the thirteen original colonies?" Then a recruit raised his hand and asked, "Which one stands for Virginia?" That guy became our "Dumb Question PO" For the rest of our time at RTC San Diego.
I call BS. In Marine Corps boot camp, (Parris Island), we NEVER saluted our drill instructors. They were all enlisted. Enlisted Marines do NOT get saluted.
In Army basic training we had one trainee name Greenwood who pissed his bed and reported in formation with his camouflage on top his helmet liner without his steel pot. He was gone a few days later. Maybe OCS ?
To dumb, yes, yes they can. My brother went to the recruiters office back in 99, Was given a test and after having it graded, I couldn't help but laugh when they took down a test off the wall and replaced it with his. He then held the record for "lowest score" they had received. One told him the only way he could get smarter would be to go to the hospital and be validated to have brain damage.
Just like Vietnam, getting people that are so unintelligent that they are a danger to themselves and the unit. Now politicos want to do the same thing that cost us Vietnam. McNamara's Folly 2: Electric Bougaloo
Only one way to learn though, sure the boot is dumb now but given time he will learn, the question he should ask himself is why is he there? what does he wish to gain? and how does he plan to accomplish that? sure a drill instructor can push you to your best but only you can prove yourself.
YES, someone can be too F'ing dumb for the military. When I was technical school our brother class was Army. I have no doubt what so ever these guys were amazing warriors who would put thousands of rounds down range at the bad guys when the time came. However they were at the fire school so they could become firefighters as their second job in the Army. They were great guys, I loved them to death, but man... sometimes...
More then likely they was looking for a chapter out discharge. Seen people like this at ft Benning or excuse me now ft moore. Realized wasn't for them so starting acting dumb and stuff to get out
What was that zoom?
Big and juicy
We've all thought about it. Seriously. I met some hot women in the Air Force as a Security Policeman.
To bad they were officers and I was an e5
A service to us all.
Cake sir, that was cake...
I wanna smell it
He's the most intelligent marine

Bingo
“At the start of basic training we were learning the basics”
Truer words were never spoken
I bet if he was in the Air Force his call sign would be squeeze 😂
And K's call sign will be Romeo
Probably his call sign would be a ticket back home.
he asked for a compliment, he got a compliment.
Somebody promote that man to a leadership role immediately.

Did he know his right from his left?
@@donotneed2250 Not sure it would matter after his comments on tire rotation. 🤣
They tried sending dumb troops to Vietnam but the casualties went way up.

Exactly the kind of test a DI would spring on a recruit.
Boy was doomed whether he saluted or not.
@@Cryogenius333 I guess that's the difference between now and 40 years ago.
11:00 am woke up to a great story to listen to in this snowy weather 😅❤

I have seen many, even with stars
Mad respect for the zoom
He'd make a great officer
Uh, ya, Vietnam war. Macnamara’s 100,000.

Thats the marines recruit right?
Oh no 😂
Yes my nephew
It sucks if he's a native English speaker tho.
That had to be a Marine. The US Army does not call Drill Sergeants "Sir," the US Marine Corps does.
private pyle
Well I joined the marines so no
YES!
Do they salute non-coms in the US?
You salute WO+ in most countries
Except the UK, we're the only normal ones.
@ Asked as a former soldier in the British Army,
Typical marine corp recruit.
Short answer: no
Peach
Bs story. You don’t salute drills bc they are nco’s
My thought exactly.
🍑
Well Marines are in the military so obviously you can get into the military no matter what.
Never heard of MacNamara's Morons?
Project 100,000 aka McNamara's Morons
Can you join the marine? if you don't know how to read.
Dude sounds perfect for the Marines!
