I think its chilling even with the best attitude. Its honestly one of the best means of learning to handle anxiety and emotional control. You're getting screamed at by an extremely intimidating person and you have to remain as stoic as possible. Even in this video they called out one guy for making a pissed off face during PT.... But still lol even the most patriotic and passionate recruit is gonna be taken by surprise. There's no true way of preparing you just gotta jump in and adapt fast
@@rawkguy4896 I guess I mean with the attitude you described… To understand they are teaching you to handle anxiety and be able to keep your executive functions while fight or flight is kicking in. That nobody is actually going to hurt you in a way that isn’t good for you. The attitude of this is good for me, not patriotism or motivation or anything. It’s what’s kept me calm through everything. Translates to life. It’s all a test. Then you die. Next right thing. Next right thing. Take responsibility. Next right thing.
I’m a marine and I’m never the one to judge of what’s different or not all I care about is that we are all fighting for the same thing and this was great to watch
Memories are FLOODING back. Went to Fort Sill in ‘99 and retired in ‘19. “Basic” will forever remain near and dear, and I wouldn’t trade a second of it for anything 😎
Advice for anyone going to boot. 1. LISTEN, ALWAYS LISTEN and do exactly what you're told. 2. Realize it's just a game of sorts. The point is to make sure you follow orders and slowly teach you the basics of military decorum and tradition. 3. You're going to fail exercises no matter how hard you try. BUT TRY 4. Don't clown around, ever. 5. When you're in the barracks at night, particularly the first couple weeks or so. ASSUME the Drill Sergeants are wandering around waiting for someone to start talking when lights go out. I had a drill sergeant dressed as a recruit catch us talking, told us we were dead in the morning. 6. Know that even when you don't mess up, you're going to get berated and exercised anyways. 7. The first couple of nights are the worst, if you get past that, the rest is easier. Not because it's tough per se, but because you realize what you just got yourself into and that reality hits hard. 8. Show effort at all times, it'll keep them off your back. 9. Know that Boot staff will purposely try to relax you in order to see if you all get too relaxed. So don't fall for it.
When we got on the Bus. Our Main Drill Sergeant ( Black female. 5ft tall. About 115 lbs). Walked on the Bus. And said Yep you better put your heads down , your going to need all the help you can get!! That's all she said and sat down. Lol. She set the stage. She was Strict, she expected. Your Best. She was a Straightshooting Badass. Much admiration and respect for her. After Basic training graduation. You realized she was a Sweetheart. We were the Leading Platoon in that Battalion. No joke. God bless you all and your families. ❤️🙏💯👍💪👏👏
First off, when I did BCT at Ft. Jackson in 1977, we did not see a Drill Sargent until like, the third day. We had Corporals who were in charge of us. Rode in on a, “Greyhound,” type bus to a very nice, new, reception center that looked like a college dorm. The E-4s kindly guided us through getting our uniforms, shots, haircuts, etc. Everyone was Iike, hey, this ain’t so bad! Until the morning they loaded us up on cattle trucks and drove us out to the old pre WW2 barracks where…it all changed. The phrase, “chum to Sharks at a feeding frenzy,” come to mind. Our BCT company had eight Drills, two per platoon, a senior Drill, and maybe one or two more on staff. But that first day…I swear there were thirty! All in my face!
That's actually how they are taught. My brother was a marine drill instructor and he told me that for hours upon hours they would practice yelling at trees. Perfecting that deep raspy voice.
We were the first class for a new DI. He told us how he’d practiced in the mirror to get his DI face perfect and had his opening line ready. He just needed a target and he found it in the form of a good sized recruit named Cruz. I remember it like yesterday. On the cattle car to old tank hill Cruz was staring at this DI with a dumbfounded look and our DI gave him a death stare and yelled out “ what’s the matter with you boy, you wanna f$ck me or something?” Cruz wanted to disappear and we made space around him in a hurry even in that hot dusty cattle car. Lol. Great times.
Do they even really need practice after first time? They do this so often to so many new groups of people that at one point it should come straight ouf of their spines from the sheer amount of repetition.
Me : Exists Drill Sergeant : 😡 Edit: whoa look at them likes, i went to basic training in 2019 of October. I literally watched this video and commented before i left for Basic😭
In 1982 we finished our Basic training and were transported to Fort Jackson for our MOS training. I was 20 years old. I empathize with them. I was 20 years old.

Ft. Jackson is known as summer camp Jackson, or fort Snoopy. It is by far the easiest basic training in the country. Once you get out of the 1st month of classes, the rest is a lot of fun. Obstacle courses, rifle ranges, grenade range, more obstacle courses... good times that actually go by very fast. There is nothing hard about basic training, and it is designed so that the vast majority of people pass.
@@johnthomas1422John, I agree. I new people that did not pass, and I was one of them. We pass anyway.....well that was during the Vietnam War. I guess they needed us as target. Guess what....I did stay 20 years. The money was good and at home I was broke all the time. That is why all those lazy officers stay for many years. They make a lot of money doing nothing.....then they claim they do it for their country. Ja, ja, I was always laughing about that one.
Fort Jackson, SC April 13, 1989. I served 20 yrs , 6 months and 18 days! #Hoorah!! 💚 It was the best decision of my life! I joined when I was 25. My first duty station was in Germany, my choice and it was amazing! I'm so proud to have served my country! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I couldn't believe my luck when i joined at 26 years old, the drill sergeant that walked on my bus was a childhood friend of mine that had moved away when we were 18 after joining...all the drill Sergeants knew i was his friend and it ended up being a easy basic training for me personally.
@@sm-vu4er They used to have a fat camp if you didn't pass the entry test. I heard they did away with it, but I went to fat camp at Benning because I could not do situps worth a fuck. I was only there a couple weeks. But the Army got 12 years and four tours out of me. So if they did get rid of it like I heard, surprise surprise, Army leadership made a retarded decision.
I was a female in the army in 1978 and loved it! You have to be prepared to make everything a challenge for you to beat and keep a good attitude. I was smiling on the inside the whole time!
Back in my old Army days, "HOLY crap Private Pyle!!!" He told you to do push-ups, not something obscene to the ground of My Military Post. YOU HAVE JUST OOOOOOOOOFFENDED ME AND ALL OTHERS AROUND YOU!! GET ON YO BACK AND GIMME SOME FLUTTER KICKS UNTIL WE TELL YOU WHEN TO STOP!!!! I MIGHT HAVE TO CALL THE MILITARY POLICE TO SEE IF THE GROUND GONNA PRESS CHARGES ON YOU!!!
@@0311ForceRecon i'm so scared of you John, the man who's hiding behind his profile pic thats a literal bear and leaves ugly comments on YT in his spare time... terrifying shit man.
I’m glad I went through this at about peak covid the drill instructors seemed a little more relaxed (compared to this). We also took advantage of the call out a lot outside the DFAC with absolutely screaming our number as loud as we could when it wasn’t entirely necessary, everyone got a kick out of it.
I did Basic at Jackson in 1987/1988...1/28 Charlie Co...Our Senior DS was this huge amateur competitive body builder, SFC Harrison...The guy scared the crap out of me the first week but busy the end he was pretty cool...Glad I did it, it was a memorable experience...
Lol oh man... the risks you would take not doing as you were told, all part of the fun lol if u get caught you'd get shouted at but I'm thick skinned so didn't effect me, just playing the game lol
That was me too, but I joined because I just wanted to do something with my life/ wanted something different and honestly it's not bad at all. Basic training isn't as hard as everyone makes it seem, it's just nerve racking since it's a new environment with new rules but you get used to it plus you meet amazing people at training who become your best friends. You should give it a go, just saying 💪
We called our drill sergeant drill sergeant Batman because he just sounded like Batman and the other platoons were even scared of him. He would smoke the dogshit out of us but he made us the best. We won every compeition and got honor platoon and he was nominated as the best drill sergeant by the end of osut.
“Raise you’re hand now!” “If there is no one in front of you put your hand down!” Kid in the red hoodie at the front:”I have been played, toyed with and quite possibly bamboozled”.
No matter how intimidating & scary it seems to enlist seeing this always excites me & makes me want to join even more knowing it would definitely change me for the better if I went through with it
Good Luck Troops. You will do fine. I thank God for my service in the US Army. Best thing ever happened to me. It gave me all the confidence I needed for Life. If you are Disciplined, You can and will reach all of your goals .I wish all youngsters had the opportunity to serve in our armed forces.
I got ran over by recruits getting off the bus! Then, to make things worse, I owed him 50 push ups before I even got up! Go figure..... But it was the best 15 weeks I ever had in my life!
These people had all kinds of time to get off his bus. When I went into basic we had only 10 seconds and 9 of them were gone. Last person off bus had 50 pushups to do. 1979 to 1983
They are a lot gentler than in '86. We got "5 seconds to get off the bus" (cattle cart). Then pure hell. Screaming, dropping us for pushups, getting in our faces, threatening us. Pure chaos.
For those who thought of joining this like myself, let me tell ya, it is absolutely not an easy process being in there shoes. I just found out that I couldn’t join because of my health conditions just adhd and a learning disability, so there’s no way I’d be eligible to be in the military but! I definitely am glad I did research on this and seeing videos like this, highly makes me wish I could be there. Shout out to the recruits that go through this become the best soldiers that serves and protects our country! For those that think this is easy or think it’s nothing…. You don’t know at all until you get off the bus!
No disrespect whatsoever I’m just saying I would’ve been so dumb Drill Sergeant: you will address me as drill sergeant everytime I speak to you do u understand? Me: yEs SiR
Huge tip for basic, DO WHAT YOURE TOLD! Nothing more nothing less!!!! Address them in the wrong way and they WILL make life a living hell even after basic
That’s fair advice 😂 you’d be surprised how easy it is to mess up in basic, they’ll legit make some instructions unclear so that they can smoke you for not doing it right. But great listening skills, moving quickly and doing what your told is your best chance of flying under the radar 😂
HammerBann OH yeah don’t sign up to fight for your country, don’t sign up for something that can pay for your college, your health insurance, and your housing all you gotta do is go 9 weeks without your family and make connections with random strangers, who at the end of those 9 weeks you will be willing to take a bullet for. Signing that dotted line was the best decision I’ve ever made in my life. How about you say “I won’t do this shit” other people believe they were meant to join the military. Watch your words before you comment on someone else’s words asshole.
The thing is, you can only do as many push ups as your mucles will allow. Muscle fatigue is an option, but once your supervisor figures out you can't do anymore of 1 exercise, they change the exercise. Overhead arm claps are far worse than push ups. Just stay down, and do bad form push ups, that's the trick.
This was me 01 May 1984 Fort Jackson. They do it differently now but I'm sure the experience is the same. I know I didn't feel the same about it then, but now I cherish those memories.
I can't believe I have not seen this in over 30 years I loved every bit of the army I loved every day was different they hollered they scream it was good and it was bad for them to make this on TH-cam y'all making my PTSD go crazy but it's good to see 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
A badass: Teleports out of the bus and into proper formation in a split second. Drill Sargent: What you too good to walk like the rest of us?!?! F. A. I L
Same here in Germany, there's a documentary on the YT channel of the German army where a freshman got up 10 minutes early in the morning and the drill instructor actually sent him back to bed lmao
John Doe yea you can see everyone’s flaws that their going to have to hammer out. Some were being double jointed some were being consistent but not explosive enough, it’s brutal but it’s also so cool to see the bad habits they came their with vs their new version of themselves it’s such an improvement. And those DIs are so experienced they already see each individuals shit that they will need to fix probably just based off how they performed their pushups. So cool
spent my time at fort jackson south carolina in 1965.hot hot hot.sand fleas and pine trees.cadra most from world war two and korea.tough training but they trained you right.met a lot of good guys and they were fare what they were trying to train you they knew your life would depend on how you learned your training.eas glad to learn what i did.training also came in handy in my civilian life.
Omg, that is so much easier then the Marine Corps boot camp that I went through in the 80s. Those Drill Sgts weren't even yelling or nothing. Oh well we're all military no matter what route we took. Much respect for all branches. 👍🙏I just wish I had TH-cam boot camp videos to watch before I joined lol.
Try telling that to my platoon full of ESL's, English second language, bunch of Hispanic females who could NOT stop talking in formation. We were ALWAYS pushing.
be good enough to avoid suspicion, but don't do well enough to stand out...I made the mistake of knowing shit before I went in, and a particular infantry DS rode me the whole time...but goddamn it he made me into a soldier
Let’s all have a moment of silence for my mans in the white Ts and struggling doing push-ups and with crazy papers falling over and no only that but when they entered the big room his papers where falling out and the guard was talking to him again, I hope he is doing well, he is trying to start to serve our country 🇺🇸
I like imagining that there's just this one soldier totally defying commands and filming everything on his phone and for some reason the drill sergeants all have zero problem with this.
@@nikki6284 you like imagining?imagining what? Dragons? Unicorns? That one day the economy will fall and it will take down everything the human race has done in the past 10,000 years with it?
Ft Jackson was also where Drill Sergeants were trained. I remember seeing them standing and barking orders at trees. This brings back a lot of memories. I went through BASIC at Ft. Jackson in 2003. I was 34 when I entered BASIC.
Went through @28 Around 1980, totally not like this lol, like yours 6 to 8 drills screaming, dark cold ah The old Tank hill Alpha 5-1. These kids today have it easy, when I was there they had just opened What everyone called Hollywood
I'm sayin bro, man's was calm and cool. My reception drill sergeant just downed a bottle of whiskey and finished his 3rd divorce and it showed. He hated us. And not like the usual drill sergeant hate, this was different
I just graduated basic yesterday. When i got to Fort Jackson, i was in this exact bus and had this exact same Drill Sergeant at reception. He toned it down for the cameras big time, thats allllll im gonnna say.
Went thru Basic at Fort Jackson back in 1993. They can't smack you around or hit you but they will smoke the hell out of you and/or yell at you so much you'll wish they would just slap you upside the head and get it over with.
Things sure have changed since I was there 49 years ago. When I was there every third word was cursing. In my 18 years of my life I had never heard people cussed like I heard that day

Fort Jackson, SC April 13, 1989. I served 20 yrs , 6 months and 18 days! #Hoorah!! 💚
It was the best decision of my life! I joined when I was 25. My first duty station was in Germany, my choice and it was amazing! I'm so proud to have served my country! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I couldn't believe my luck when i joined at 26 years old, the drill sergeant that walked on my bus was a childhood friend of mine that had moved away when we were 18 after joining...all the drill Sergeants knew i was his friend and it ended up being a easy basic training for me personally.
Joining the army? Good for you! Here's a tip, work on those pushups a couple months before you go.
I'd work more on running more people get a no go on the run than pushups you are going to do a lot of push ups anyway in bct.
Well I guess if you can’t do many push ups you won’t have to do many
Fuckin situps bruh.
@@sm-vu4er They used to have a fat camp if you didn't pass the entry test. I heard they did away with it, but I went to fat camp at Benning because I could not do situps worth a fuck. I was only there a couple weeks. But the Army got 12 years and four tours out of me. So if they did get rid of it like I heard, surprise surprise, Army leadership made a retarded decision.
HIIT and sprints.
I guarantee you, if the kid in the front didn’t put his arm up, the drill sergeant would tell him to put it up 😂
Daniel Wurgler omg I was saying the same thing
Yep!
Master Illusionist's For Dictatorships shut up
No he wouldn’t
He wouldn’t
I went to basic at Ft. Jackson in 92, I don't remember the drill sergeants being this calm. My how things have changed.
I was a female in the army in 1978 and loved it! You have to be prepared to make everything a challenge for you to beat and keep a good attitude. I was smiling on the inside the whole time!
felt so bad for my mans in the white T who was struggling with push ups then had all his paperwork lookin crazy ....that would've been me lmao
Back in my old Army days, "HOLY crap Private Pyle!!!" He told you to do push-ups, not something obscene to the ground of My Military Post. YOU HAVE JUST OOOOOOOOOFFENDED ME AND ALL OTHERS AROUND YOU!!
GET ON YO BACK AND GIMME SOME FLUTTER KICKS UNTIL WE TELL YOU WHEN TO STOP!!!! I MIGHT HAVE TO CALL THE MILITARY POLICE TO SEE IF THE GROUND GONNA PRESS CHARGES ON YOU!!!

I believe he said failed because only a few people moved with a purpose
1 mite? I only had 10 seconds....
It was 2 minutes dumb ass are u deaf
@@l8r404 Found the triggered.
Why did they fail the bus task didn’t they get off in tine
I’m glad I went through this at about peak covid the drill instructors seemed a little more relaxed (compared to this). We also took advantage of the call out a lot outside the DFAC with absolutely screaming our number as loud as we could when it wasn’t entirely necessary, everyone got a kick out of it.
🎉
You got short changed then, i wouldnt trade the experience for anything.
I did Basic at Jackson in 1987/1988...1/28 Charlie Co...Our Senior DS was this huge amateur competitive body builder, SFC Harrison...The guy scared the crap out of me the first week but busy the end he was pretty cool...Glad I did it, it was a memorable experience...
There's always that one person not doing the pushups when the drill sergeant looks away
lmao
That was always me at boot camp lmaooo
Like all the woman, and thats not sexist literally watch the video XD
Lol oh man... the risks you would take not doing as you were told, all part of the fun lol if u get caught you'd get shouted at but I'm thick skinned so didn't effect me, just playing the game lol
hndez_ 13 that’s me 😀
Half of me wants to join the army, the other half of me wants to stay in my bed and continue eating hot Cheetos and think that’s daring enough.
That was me too, but I joined because I just wanted to do something with my life/ wanted something different and honestly it's not bad at all. Basic training isn't as hard as everyone makes it seem, it's just nerve racking since it's a new environment with new rules but you get used to it plus you meet amazing people at training who become your best friends. You should give it a go, just saying 💪
S. Ramirez which branch did u join?
Clever Smart Army
Hell yeah Army is the way to go.
Two words: national guard
I watched two military related videos, and now my recommended is filled to the brim with military videos. Thanks youtube
Fort dix Dec 1987 basic training army. I was barely 18 years old. The experience molded my life for the better. I'll always remember
This is possibly the most chill drill sergeant I have ever seen. And he was still pretty scary.
Exactly
It’s because the cameras were there. When no cameras are there is usually rough. However, the real fun is when BCT starts
Look....that monotone voice of that DS will scare the shxt outta anybody. I'm a witness
We called our drill sergeant drill sergeant Batman because he just sounded like Batman and the other platoons were even scared of him. He would smoke the dogshit out of us but he made us the best. We won every compeition and got honor platoon and he was nominated as the best drill sergeant by the end of osut.
If you mess up hes disappointed and thats the worst things ever
“Raise you’re hand now!”
“If there is no one in front of you put your hand down!”
Kid in the red hoodie at the front:”I have been played, toyed with and quite possibly bamboozled”.
I feel bad for him, I know I would have made the same mistake
I'm gonna be annoyed if I get the front or back in that line because I dont wanna mess it up
Your Next Door Neighbors lol would’ve been me
Your Next Door Neighbors that s*it literally happened all the time
Ha
No matter how intimidating & scary it seems to enlist seeing this always excites me & makes me want to join even more knowing it would definitely change me for the better if I went through with it
It was one of the best decisions of my life.
Good Luck Troops. You will do fine. I thank God for my service in the US Army. Best thing ever happened to me. It gave me all the confidence I needed for Life. If you are Disciplined, You can and will reach all of your goals .I wish all youngsters had the opportunity to serve in our armed forces.
Bro I’m sitting in my bed and I’m low-key scared for myself..
Why
same
M8 I just got back. You'll be fine xD
Me too
Why bruh this shits easier than football practice 😂 try looking up usmc basic training it’s nothing basic
That was the most polite DS I've ever seen. You have 2 minutes to get off this bus, I had negative 5 seconds to get off his bus, lol.
Right I never got 2 minutes
I wasn't given a time to get off the bus, however, I was in a late arrivals group.
I got ran over by recruits getting off the bus! Then, to make things worse, I owed him 50 push ups before I even got up! Go figure..... But it was the best 15 weeks I ever had in my life!
HURRY UP! lol.
It was....you have 30 seconds to get off from the f'ing bus and 20 of them are gone!! Now smoke your ass!!
I did basic training for a few weeks with them in Milwaukee. These guys should do good if they got the guts, the skills, or the proper mindset!
This brings back memories. I was at Fort Jackson in September 1986 for basic training.
These people are thinking “What did I just get myself into”.
Maybe
It's a couple days later when that thought REALLY kicks in. Shark Attack, which to my understanding they're not doing anymore for some reason.
@@crazyJman80 what’s shark attack?
@@Revolumuzik94 they make you exercise for hours while getting smoke by drill sgt's
@@jairomaysonet7856 whoa, I mean, I exercise and all but in my emotional state, I’d have a breakdown/depression or traumatized
I love how a drill sergeant owns everything: “you have 2 minutes to get off MY bus”
In communist countries, I guess the guy says “get off OUR bus”
@@simplyrealistc1232 underrated comment 😂
They do own your ass.
These people had all kinds of time to get off his bus. When I went into basic we had only 10 seconds and 9 of them were gone. Last person off bus had 50 pushups to do. 1979 to 1983
I would have asked for license and registration.
The kids can follow directions. Hope they all made it through. Army strong.
They are a lot gentler than in '86. We got "5 seconds to get off the bus" (cattle cart). Then pure hell. Screaming, dropping us for pushups, getting in our faces, threatening us. Pure chaos.
The bus driver was like “LATERS 🚎 “

@Ben Dover okay?
😂
@Ben Dover maybe because females want to be tOuGH too
@Ben Dover really how so
This drill sergeant is respectful I love it
For those who thought of joining this like myself, let me tell ya, it is absolutely not an easy process being in there shoes. I just found out that I couldn’t join because of my health conditions just adhd and a learning disability, so there’s no way I’d be eligible to be in the military but! I definitely am glad I did research on this and seeing videos like this, highly makes me wish I could be there. Shout out to the recruits that go through this become the best soldiers that serves and protects our country! For those that think this is easy or think it’s nothing…. You don’t know at all until you get off the bus!
I process information slow as shit so I would be yelled at so much
No disrespect whatsoever I’m just saying I would’ve been so dumb
Drill Sergeant: you will address me as drill sergeant everytime I speak to you do u understand?
Me: yEs SiR
Liv Litherland I’m so scared that I’ll do this hahaha
Huge tip for basic, DO WHAT YOURE TOLD! Nothing more nothing less!!!! Address them in the wrong way and they WILL make life a living hell even after basic
Hannah Snyder wow. Who would have thought that you’re suppose to do what you’re told? Jeez. Thanks for the big tip!
That’s fair advice 😂 you’d be surprised how easy it is to mess up in basic, they’ll legit make some instructions unclear so that they can smoke you for not doing it right. But great listening skills, moving quickly and doing what your told is your best chance of flying under the radar 😂
HammerBann OH yeah don’t sign up to fight for your country, don’t sign up for something that can pay for your college, your health insurance, and your housing all you gotta do is go 9 weeks without your family and make connections with random strangers, who at the end of those 9 weeks you will be willing to take a bullet for.
Signing that dotted line was the best decision I’ve ever made in my life. How about you say “I won’t do this shit” other people believe they were meant to join the military. Watch your words before you comment on someone else’s words asshole.
8:07 that Drill Sergeant just saved that black kid’s life when he told them to stop doing push-ups.
i feel. that
he was doing them right all the time but dey wasnt looking 😂
He was doing them perfectly when they weren’t looking but they look at him he got tired
The thing is, you can only do as many push ups as your mucles will allow. Muscle fatigue is an option, but once your supervisor figures out you can't do anymore of 1 exercise, they change the exercise. Overhead arm claps are far worse than push ups. Just stay down, and do bad form push ups, that's the trick.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like how the drill sgt says and do it NOW !!! I grew up near Ft Bragg NC--love love this

I can't believe I have not seen this in over 30 years I loved every bit of the army I loved every day was different they hollered they scream it was good and it was bad for them to make this on TH-cam y'all making my PTSD go crazy but it's good to see 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
A badass: Teleports out of the bus and into proper formation in a split second.
Drill Sargent: What you too good to walk like the rest of us?!?! F. A. I L

You ain't kiddin🤣🤣dont miss that part
@Lor Ray right tho
Same here in Germany, there's a documentary on the YT channel of the German army where a freshman got up 10 minutes early in the morning and the drill instructor actually sent him back to bed lmao
Can't spell Sergeant :) brainwave :)
The first dude in the white shirt struggling to do pushups is literally me 😔😂
I thought fat people weren't allowed to enlist!
@@garylaan4480 that's what I thought too but I heard that they put you on a strict diet, same if you are underweight.
Deanooo no that’s not how that works.
@@stone65037 they did that with my friend he was to over weight and they put him on a diet before doing MEPS
Deanooo they don’t have to do anything actually. Usually they tell you to come back when yo sure fit
This makes me regret leaving cadets. I miss those days. No matter how bad my day was, or the stress I was under, I never felt alone in cadets.
I grew up in the military.I also went to Fort Jackson and went to jump School .It was hard but I had fun.
Black guy in white shirt had the best form doing push - ups imo even though he got tired after a while.
John Doe yea you can see everyone’s flaws that their going to have to hammer out. Some were being double jointed some were being consistent but not explosive enough, it’s brutal but it’s also so cool to see the bad habits they came their with vs their new version of themselves it’s such an improvement. And those DIs are so experienced they already see each individuals shit that they will need to fix probably just based off how they performed their pushups. So cool
Yeah you can tell that kid is strong.

Much respect for all branches. 👍🙏I just wish I had TH-cam boot camp videos to watch before I joined lol.
Great advices: 1.) avoid creating unwanted attention. 2.) observe everything around. 3.) be a team player. 4.) Don't quit / Never give up.
I agree. avoid drawing attention. I kept my mouth quiet and was the only person in the entire company not to get KP
Try telling that to my platoon full of ESL's, English second language, bunch of Hispanic females who could NOT stop talking in formation. We were ALWAYS pushing.
My recruiter gave me 3 tips: 1.Do as your told 2. Dammit! DO as you're told 3. GODDAMMIT!!! do as you're told
be good enough to avoid suspicion, but don't do well enough to stand out...I made the mistake of knowing shit before I went in, and a particular infantry DS rode me the whole time...but goddamn it he made me into a soldier
You forgot: Don't volunteer for anything. Never EVER call your DS "Sir" or "Ma'am". And don't internalize anything.
Let’s all have a moment of silence for my mans in the white Ts and struggling doing push-ups and with crazy papers falling over and no only that but when they entered the big room his papers where falling out and the guard was talking to him again, I hope he is doing well, he is trying to start to serve our country 🇺🇸

Wow dude that means you’re 53 now crazy man
Went through @28 Around 1980, totally not like this lol, like yours 6 to 8 drills screaming, dark cold ah The old Tank hill Alpha 5-1. These kids today have it easy, when I was there they had just opened What everyone called Hollywood
Do you realize how lucky you would be to get this drill Sargent? Holy shit he’s so nice
I'm sayin bro, man's was calm and cool. My reception drill sergeant just downed a bottle of whiskey and finished his 3rd divorce and it showed. He hated us. And not like the usual drill sergeant hate, this was different
Really? well I’m screwed
That’s because there’s a camera there
That’s close to nice as his gonna get

real jew no bro lol. they can get in lots of trouble if they do. theres always the rare case it does happen but i wouldnt worry about
James Hedlock 100%
Went thru Basic at Fort Jackson back in 1993. They can't smack you around or hit you but they will smoke the hell out of you and/or yell at you so much you'll wish they would just slap you upside the head and get it over with.
This is facts lol. I had the same DS for reception. Same routine, just a whole lot more screaming and cussing/throwing trainee’s paperwork around.
The fact that i would mess up these orders is insane!!
Things sure have changed since I was there 49 years ago. When I was there every third word was cursing. In my 18 years of my life I had never heard people cussed like I heard that day
