The kill hats were the biggest surprise for me. They were literally demons running around like maniacs. Inhuman. No movie or bootcamp video ever shows it.
Thanks for uploading
Thanks Nick. Had a lot of fun as a “Kill Hat”. Was a lot of work, but came naturally. You are welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.
They forgot to mention slapping you around, or popping you in the nose with the DI cover and cutting it!
My SDi wasn't into playing with voices and screaming much ..he would yell it echoed and shook the gates at the entrance to the depot.Hard work ,pt, knowledge,and especially drill was what made him great.
Yeah they were! Especially the heavy. Terrifying! SDI was like the dad who would show up and calm them down occasionally.
All "fun" and "games" until you're actually in the eye of the storm. Real "fun" when it's singled out on you personally. The wrath is intense and hurts.
No escaping no where for your mind to wander. The ultimate reality when your Drill Instructors comes crashing down on you. No where to go no where to hide.
The wake up call to becoming a Marine. Very sobering and scary as hell.
ahhhhhh this is more like it. finally someone posted what its really like
alex martinez only wish someone had footage of when they make you do the stupid shit like scuzzing the squad bay with another recruit or drill movements with footlockers
Pretty weak Army Artillery fort sill 05 was like this and more.
@@GODWITHUS0712 Man the Army really is as stupid as everyone says you are.
@@patrickmac9403 you are a dumbass if you think so 🤣. The only people on youtube who make comments like you just did are people that never served .
This is soft. We had two recruits knocked out the first day on black Friday. We had water bowl IT sessions (puke covering the entire deck of the squad bay) constantly. Second phase we stole another platoons guide on since they took ours and had their drill instructor beat the living shit out of our guide while he just watched and smiled.
MCRD San Diego, Platoon 3075 Summer/Fall 1989. This is amazing footage. I remember being in Receiving for a couple days and wondering where all the yelling was. Then one day we all form it up and march down a couple blocks to a new squadbay. We stack all our seabags outside and sit down on the quarterdeck. The officer did his thing, the Senior DI did his thing and walked back into the duty hut...and then this happened. Holy shit! I was 18 right out of high school. Full Metal Jacket already came out by the time I enlisted prior to my senior year in 1988, so I was expecting that. Compared to what happened, GySgt Hartman was a teddy bear. Within 5 minutes I'm wondering what the hell I got myself into. The echoing sounds of this in our own squadbay as well as the other new platoons being picked up going through the same thing still give me chills. And the sounds of the planes taking off just on the other side of the fence, will never forget that.
I love the genuine looks of fear at 0:54 and 1:56, and I can't tell you how many times I got the hand in the face at 2:10 . Also the seemingly effortless flinging of footlockers and seabags while kicking recruits trash into obscurity is sheer ballet. The devastation and complete chaos of your gear left in the wake of this first day is only comparable to trying to find your stuff by the time you hit the rack. I lost plenty of stuff, or ended up with other peoples gear. I do remember losing my "Knowledge", but finding it on fire watch that night!
If you are the DI in this video wreaking havoc on these new recruits, you are to be commended. I guarantee you are still being talked about today by the recruits you turned into United States Marines.
I went in 91.. thank God we went in when shit was REAL... I thank God everyday that I went in the full tilt REAL Marine Corps boot camp and not the WOKE bullshit now ... one of the things I hated at MCRD SD was 1. I was always the 4th squad and they always fucking shouted ONE TWO THREE FOUR ATTACK THE CHOW HALL while only like once in a blue moon they would say FOUR THREE TWO ONE... and 2. was the fucking jets... we had the LAST bay on the closest edge to the airport fence so the fucking jets would literally SCREAM in and out all fucking day and night.. .. I have like 5% hearing lose and my doctor thinks its from that.. oh yeah.. I was Winter 91 1100... oh BTW second phase was like the Russian Front in the winter... SD had one of the worst winters in like 50 years ... I was literally wet and pissed on for two weeks straight.. I was a 4.5 Marine but I always forgot the GO's I actually do not remember most of them to this day hahaahahah
Ok, Hollywood.🙄
Sounds a lot like Parris Island SC 199, 3rd battalion plt 3020...craziness, utter chaos!!!

I would have traded PI's July swelter for a good freeze any day.
This just shows why the Marines are the very best. I was a paratrooper in the Army, but my boot camp was tough, but nothing like this. We would be in groups talking at the airport, and Marines would walk by, and the conversation stopped, and just like me, everyone was staring with that same look. There is something about the US Marine, and it's the boot camp, which is ten times tougher than any of the other armed services, PERIOD. That's why they get that look, its the look of admiration, cause they EARNED that awesome uniform with the eagle, globe, and anchor. SEMPER FI 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪💪💪💪

Ahhhh the days 😍😍😍 you got 2 drill instructors counting over each other, another one running laps up and down the squad bay, 5 recruits are getting lit up on the quarterdeck, bags are being dumped, recruits running back and forth, it’s just pure chaos and there’s nothing like it.
It doesn't bring back memories it brings nightmares the horror the horror
Little did we know at the time of being recruits that those 3 months on parris island would be some of the greatest 3 months of our lives. It was such an honor to just be able to say i survived parris island or san diego. Change is forever. S/F brothers

The chaos on Black Friday is my favorite memory from bootcamp. The guy next to me puked on me. The guy across from me was crying. I got caught laughing at him. I was legitimately having fun although I could do without the puke. This is probably the only video I've seen that shows the insanity, I love it.

@Leeroy Jenkins guess who protects "Muh Freedom"?
I still remember my first wakeup. All three DI's with batons banging on the inside of GI cans screaming at the top of their lungs. I was already up I was so nervous. I didn't take a dump for 7 damn days.
I was there in 72' there just as tough as back then it's a blessing to see the DI is the same. I laugh watching now believe me I was scared shit when I went threw it.
Ijeffrey Trian That is the great thing about the Marine Corps. We take pride in our heritage and feel an obligation to live up to the high standards set by those that are the uniform before us. People like you set a high standard and passed it on to the next generation. It looks like the new generation are trying to do the same. Semper Fi!
On the first day we had to throw all our boots in the middle. A drill instructor came through with a push broom and made one big pile. For all of boot camp, I had the wrong size boots. I never could find my own. My boots were too small. '93
Well, that makes ZERO logical sense whatsoever!!! If you can't walk, you can't fight!!! You think I'm staying in there without my shoes...? You got another thing coming!!!

Same here 🤣👌
@@jtcusa7288 That must have been a Hollywood thing. It's so humid on Parris Island, that it would have only taken 2 minutes. Not nearly enough time for a good thrashing. It's dry enough in San Diego to make that sound like hell.
@@Savage3OO6 I wasn’t in the marines, but they took it as a challenge in the Navy during the colder months in Great Lakes to “make it rain”. It would have been a piece of cake during the summer which was surprisingly miserable at the time.
@@bigwilly43729 Sounds like good times! My dad went to Great Lakes back in the 60s, I will ask him if they did it back then too. I'm not sure what time of year he was there though.
I had 2 of my DIs haze the shit out of me and two other guys. They had us do mountain climbers, burpees, jumping jacks, etc for some stupid shit I don't remember. But we went at it for like 2 hours straight and I felt like I lost 10 pounds then and there lmao good times
Thanks for the memories of Plt 395, India Co, 3rd Bn Parris Island Oct-Dec 1973.

I don't regret ever serving in the Corp's. I served 3 years in the Army and I crossed over the discipline that was instilled in me from the Marine corps and proudly the Sargent's in the Army saw that. Marine Corps forever, Semper Fi !!!!!!!
I did the same thing and I also spent 3 years in the Army as well. I wished many of days that I reenlist back in the Corp, I had Sgt's that failed inspection because sgt major found chicken bones under his rack and had fellow soldiers fail drug test all the time. I thank God that I never went to combat with them, I always told people in my unit that I would go to war any day with my Marines than go with you all. I will say this last thing also the only thing that the Army does is promote faster, that's all I thank God that he bless me to get out before my unit went to combat because I really believe in my heart that I would not have made it back alive with the unit that I was in. Semper Fi !!!!!!!
Military discipline is instilled while in boot camp. You learn to work as a team, and obey orders in order not to get yourselves and your fellow Marines killed in combat.
Whata asshole kicking stuff.
MEMORIES are made of this. That is exactly what it was like in July 1960 at PI. So many funny stories.
It’s always good to see where I came from, makes me proud of who I am today and reinforces the very basic fundamentals of success in life. God bless SF 🦅 🌎 ⚓️
This is the real deal. I remember it well. Dad was there in 55, me in 89, my son in 2019.
This makes my heart all warm and fuzzy . great job
This is how we got disciplined at bootcamp, I can guarantee it made us better because we never wanted days like this again ... If we were doing good they would still do this to keep us on our toes
Thank you for the flashback of P.I. I arrived as a Recruit in the early morning hours of Jan 2, 1992 and graduated from Plt 3025, 3rd Btn, L Co. on March 27th. Never will forget my 13 weeks there.
I was there from Jan 20 1992 to April 18. I just missed you but probably saw you in the fleet somewhere
I used to always hate the drill instructors when I saw videos of them acting crazy like this. But watching this particular video, I have to say, there have been times where I seriously wanted to do exactly this to a random group of people. It must be liberating to be able to let out your inner mad man. Tough on the vocal cords. I’m glad those of you who have served remember this experience fondly.
Very good video. Definitely brought back memories of my time in Plt 3319, Parris Island Sept -Dec 1984.
Wow this video is a great. Thanks for uploading this gem.
I needed this, I have been having a week to top it off with a day. Good times, sometimes I wish I could go back through boot camp and an enlistment again, kind of realign things.
I’m glad my Drill instructors were hard on me.Made me who I am today.
God bless me too I've used there teaching my whole life I'm 66 yrs lold

I was in Parris Island 1982....Wow! I remember the Drill Instructors knocking over racks with mattresses, sheets and blankets strewn all over the squad bay!
How was the feel.of P I. In 82 ?
This is what bootcamp should be like in every branch. It prepares you mentally for combat. I served in the Army and I wish we had this kind of indoctrination.
If I could go back in time I should’ve joined the marine corps and not the army.
But now that I already joined, I never want to go through this type of experience again. The army sucked, and the marine corps is worse.
I think because of society wanting to make shit easier and being so much more soft is because of the way army bct is but idc I'm still joining
@@HateTheIRS Its a little funny you say that. I think back at all the craziness that happened in boot camp and everything I did and places I went in my short 4 years being in the Marine Corps and I can tell you Parris Island, while being very difficult for many different reasons, was among the best memories I have had. If I could go back and do boot camp again I would in a heart beat, there is no feeling like it. Yes it was extremely difficult but it made me who I am and what I am to my very core.
@@eviljack1687 I wouldn’t feel the same way lol
Hell this should be mandatory for EVERY 18 year old boy and girl in America to experience Marine basic training for 3 months after graduating high school. Enlisting beyond should still be completely voluntary, but this shit will turn every ill-mannered, self centered, gen-y and gen-z punk addicted to their cell phone with no comprehension of the real world into respectable, responsible, productive, hard working, and thoughtful young American citizens. I believe it would make our country vastly better. Exponentially better. If everyone had to go through 3 months of Marine basic training.
It would teach everyone what truly matters in life, how to deal with disappointment and loss, how to solve problems, how to be responsible and productive, to be healthy...... my gosh, even if 90% would fail or drop out, they'd at least have an understanding that life ain't easy and to succeed you have to take personal responsibility. So then when they go off to college they don't go for the easiest degree that would be useless yet indoctrinate them in destructive liberal agendas but attain a degree they can actually apply in life and use to do something. Or go into the trades, constructions, machining........ I'm really imagining how much stronger America would be if everyone had just a taste of Marine training.
How a person can move that fast In quarter frames is just impressive
So much love in the room 🤣🤣🤣I love how the DIs are throwing their gear everywhere
You have no idea lol. You know what happens after they did that. They said, get your stuff now...10,9,8,7 etc...
Great memories!! I was at MCRD San Diego summer of 1984.
slwh111 The name Ostoj ring a bell?
Damn near right there with you. Fall 1983, 3089. I didn't want it to end. I already knew changes had already taken place. My run time dropped from over 24" to under 19". I lost weight, but did not know it was in the 50# range.
Somewhere in there is a bully who use to pick on ppl. Who used to take advantage of the vulnerable. And who didn't think the Corps was this way. Yes thats him, stressed out, yelled at, gear kicked around and he is not able to call home and leave...he is stuck in a lions den. And it is very humbling.
Those DIs are currently smoking the shit out of all 8 people who disliked this video.
hahahaha
I'm old Corps, and always said the most elite human being I ever met is a Marine Drill Instructor.
They got energy and intensity like no other. Awesome people.
Indeed
I was at mcrd san diego around this time. Really captures it well. I really love these guys, they're some of the most impressive people I've ever met. This intensity is really constant, they never break character. For 3 months. At first you really start thinking 1 good sucker punch on one of them would be worth the dishonorable discharge. But it turns, our senior literally told us the day it would "click" and it did. Part of that is realizing how hard these guys work. They changed my life, and I could never thank them enough.
This is one of crazy stuff that made me rebook at boot cam. But after completing bootcamp there is that feeling. If you graduate then you are part of a high skilled warrior.

Platoon 2107 1997
My senior DI gave a soft speech, and said “let us train you”… And then this happened! 😂
Somedays I look back at boot camp fondly. Remembering how much of a shock it was those first few days. Obviously the yelling doesn't just stop after that you just get more adept at handling the chaos of it.
Been quite a few years since I've been there, I still don't miss it. They don't show what happens when the cameras aren't rolling, my DI used to quote the sign on Parris Island that said, "Let no man's ghost come back here and say, 'if only your training had done its job.' " he knew he was training us for combat, war, and death, and they didn't hold anything back.
That DI loves his job(one kicking shit)

@@jheartbeats3294 yeah man sometimes people aren’t meant for certain things in life and don’t get me wrong it was a hard experience and not every person can be a marine but I’m glad I still attempted it or I would of wondered my whole life if it was for me or not. But I’ve learned a lot about myself and new principles!

Damn. Finally some real footage, not watered down. I was in Golf Co. 2004. Semper Fi.
This just took me back! Good ol days. Not digital cammie recruits.
I was super blessed, I had a Drill Instructor Sgt. Jones. He was Force Recon. He called Cadence as the Sun was coming up we were in a couple of miles on a decent passed Run. He is running circles around the platoon we are singing back it was super motivation, he simultaneously is doing super man chest bumbs on the wet grass next to us never missing a beat.... Fucking Outstanding... 40+ years ago.. my minds eye See's it clearly. WOW... I sometimes fantasize about the Rifle Range. Once In the fleet, it was the Best times. I can smell black powder....hmmm
There was a DI when i was at MCRD San Diego on the mid 80s. He was a Force Recon unit team leader. And he would run circles around the platoon as we were on our runs. This guy was an animal. He would run ahead of us and do push-ups till we caught up then do chest bumps on the trees then run around the platoon a few more times. That brings
back some great memories.
As Robert Tucker said with his platoon, when we had a red flag day and no training outside, we closed all the portholes in our WOODEN barracks squad bay, posted a recruit at each hatch to watch for officers, and ran the obstacle course.
We climbed over the top bunks and crawled under the bottom bunks all the way around our squadbay and kept doing it until the DI was satisfied. The red flag meant it was in the 90's with high humidity outside. But, inside I am sure it was over 100. Our WOODEN barracks had no fans nor air conditioning.
God I love this shit! Finally an accurate video of boot camp!
Lmfao!! Man those were some good times at MCRD San Diego. Woodland cammie's, black leather boots. Went through there back in 1994. Semper Fi 🙂🤘
Can't love this enough. Semper Fi!
had a drill instructor in each ear and another screaming in my face asking me inspection questions, all I could say was Marine Corps, yes sir!
You can hear the person filming laughing as the DI dumps the recruits Sea bag 😂
This is why I have nothing but respect for the Marine Corps.
My time frame when I was at PIDI! Love This!
A war broke out on every Black Friday ( pick up day ) you have young New hats on every DI Team, they are the worse because they are trying to prove themselves. The heavy which is the next in line behind the senior drill instructor, he is the one trying to make senior DI and get his own platoon, then it becomes a 9 to 5 day and off on Saturday. The rest of the team grinds your ass up daily 16 hrs a day 6 days a week. 8 hr on Sunday. But you as a recruit will eventually conform/ transform into a a recruit then a potential Marine.
WOWZA! you know from a civilian perspective im glad to get a glimpse ... I have a genetic disorder Marine Corps people keep me going!
And this is what I remember. Love it!
I went though this in 1977, oh such memories!!! Semper Fi
Finally the real USMC from the stories I have heard.
Exactly how it was like in 03. Very hands on. 😉 Semper Fi!!!!
Absolutely spot on. This marine for one, thanks these drill instructors, these gods among us mere mortals, for all the skills, the discipline, and the ability to remain calm under fire. You have saved my life so many times and you continue to save it now. Yut, rah, and kill. Semper fi and thanks to all the marines before me and who will come after. I don't know what the future holds for you but the Marine in me hopes you get a target rich environment. The civilian in me hopes you never have to go through the things we and others have. Those unvelievably long nights when a thump in the night sits you straight up, waiting to hear impact and/or sirens and the return fire. Is tonight the night for me? So many things I want to do, so many places I want to see.... somehow thankfully and sadly, it wasn't your night. But it was your best buds night. Didn't even say goodbye to him.... didn't tell him you were sorry about that thing that you did and got him swept up in it too on accident... didn't get a chance to get a last message for a young wife and mother. Fuck man, semper fi.
Thank you and so well put. God bless my friend!
It brought back lots of memories from when we got picked up and was taken to 3rd Bat.and we were on the 3rd deck and the seabags were sure heavy after marching from receiving to 3rd bal. Caring those seabags I thought we were never going to get there and and having these Di's yelling at us the whole way and I dropped my seabag a few times and that was a mistake because I had 3 Di's all over me, but over all boot camp was a good thing for me
If you're talking about P.I., I guess I was lucky because I was in 2nd Bn and our barracks was diagonally across the street from the old wood building where Receiving was.
Ah ... the old Corps, 69 Hollywood Marine here. Those were the days when the laying on of hands was not only anticipated, it was routine until we got used to it and squared ourselves away!

I remember that first day when you meet the Drill Instructors. Indeed it was CHAOS! I didn't understand it then, but I do now.
Once you’ve earned the title......
Once a Marine Always a Marine
Only those that have completed training get it.

1969- 1973
Went through boot camp at MCRD San Diego Kilo Co plt 3098 summer of ‘99. Now this is what I remember. 😂
The fear in those kids eyes. Building body stackers! Forged out of the ashes of mount Doom!
Parris Island plt 3086 1990 it feels like it was yesterday watching this video.. Now I can laugh at it …Semper Fi …
I went through PI in 1975....this video is pretty much how it was, except for the lack of flying mattresses, footlockers, and racks.
...& recruits
"The more you sweat in peace,
the less you bleed in war"
(That Heavy Hat must have been Begging to go kill something! 😉)
God Bless the USMC! 🇺🇸
That was the toughest part of basic. Getting your shit thrown everywhere. It’s for a reason though.
Now this brings back some memories, real devils
Outstanding and for those not in the know, these recruits have 30 seconds to retrieve all their OWN trash, square it away, and 20 of those seconds are already gone...MOVE!
If I had it do all over again, I would in a heartbeat. Thirty years later, I appreciate it more every day than I did then. SF
This was calm compared to PI in 1970!
I tried but I couldn't serve because I had open heart surgery as a kid. Now my son wants to join the marines. I'm all for it
I just about spit my breakfast out watching this. God this shit was funny. 😂😂
I remember you. Lol. I was lead lead series with Ssgt Collins. Dec 2001-March 2002. Good shit.

OORAH! A real boot camp video lol
We had a guy start screaming to no end during one of those school circles; they took him out on a stretcher, I had no idea he was having a breakdown for many years having no idea what a breakdown was, it was quiet as class went on and then he lost it--screaming and screaming for no reason, still sitting with his legs crossed. I was also too stupid then to think he might have faked it; they made us all turn and face the bulkhead until some EMS-type folk took him out. It scared the crap out of me and probably other people, too, I was sweating cold over it, and if it was fake, it worked (I don't think it was). He being one of those beefy dudes in first phase who'd been around you knew would make it easy; I still remember what he looked like, a little.
We had a dude break down in basic too, all crying and shit. It was towards the end of BCT and even the DS were like wtf is wrong bro? Turns out he blew out his appendix. Poor dude.
We had a guy on our first day we got our DIs. I forget what that day is called, but he was a heavy set guy that obviously didn't know what he got himself into. He's on the quarterdeck with all 3 DIs standing around him screaming exercises & he's just sitting there rocking forward and back slapping the floor with his hands every time he goes forward & screaming YES SIR! over & over again crying like a baby. We never saw him again after that. DEAD SIR! we all yelled when he was mentioned later by the senior DI.
It was 1st phase, just after reveille......... I was taking a leak in the head next to another scrawny kid such as myself, who was telling everyone he was about to quit..... I recall telling him that was a bad idea, but he ignored me & the other recruits advice to NOT do that...... So we started doing field day, and that's when he told one of the DI's to fuck off and then proceeded to run out of the squad bay into the lovely grounds of MCRD San Diego.............We saw him again, shortly after. He was in hand-cuffs, courtesy of the MP's, and we all saw it, class room style, in that squad bay. Crying like a toddler as the MP's treated him FAR worse than the DI's...The battalion commander arrived, had a chat with the Drill Instructors, and decided he's gotta' go back home............Semper Fi.
One dude the first day--if not the first five minutes of first phase--said he wasn't going to do shit so sat on a rack, or they put him as far to the back of the squad-bay as possible--away from all the chaos. The DI's were all nice like in "Tribes" with Jan-Michael Vincent, asking in low voices "'Are you going to do this..?' 'Naw, I ain't doin' nothin.' 'You sure?' 'Yep.'" And he was gone just like that while the rest of us were treated like we were in boot camp
We thought we were gods, fearless. We thought we could do anything. Cocky bastards. Loved it! S/F
Love it. I do this to my kids now when they fail to clean up their damn friggen room..
codetwohigh I bet they only had a messy room once
Yes, the good old days. MCRD Parris Island S. C. Takes me back to 1979.
Ooh Rah! USMC June 29 1979-31 Jan 2005
