"There sure are a lot of myths about basic training. Let's go ahead and review a few.
First the white powder, let me tell you right now the military does not put white powder in the cafeteria water to constipate the recruits, so they won't have to go to the bathroom on the field. I've heard that too many times and it's just not true.
Another myth going to the gym means I'm physically fit. Hey there is no gym at basic training, so why would you go to the gym to prepare. Your going to be doing a lot of core muscle movements that you can do without a gym.
Another myth about basic training drill sergeants can hit me. That's not the case anymore, it used to be the case, but they use many other methods to punish a recruit through verbal reprimands.
Another myth I heard there was no mail at basic training. That's not true, mail call is the best time of day for recruits. It's a time away from you and the drill sergeants to be involved with your loved ones.
Another myth, I'll get to use face books and cell phones whenever I want. If your lucky you may get to use your cell phone once but I would plan on bringing a long distance calling card with you. Because more then likely you'll be using a phone card.
I'm going to learn how to kill people, well actually the military has a lot of support roles. In fact it takes about seven support roles to support every one person that's on the front line in the military. So more then likely your job will not be “just to kill people”.
Another myth my drill sergeant wants me to fail. That's not true we all want you to graduate as soon as possible. Hopefully I've dispelled some of these myths that you have heard, and some you haven't.
"
FYI my Drill instructor told us that he couldn't hit recruits as he was punching recruits in the chest. then he said, "hurts less than a bullet"
Don't forget to put a jelly donut in your footlocker
There paying for it you eat it .
WHY IS YOUR FOOT LOCKER UNLOCKED!!!!!
EAT IT FATBODY
You owe me for one jelly donut!
Private pyle
"thats not the case anymore" at least not on paper
here's some myths about basic training...
1. you should salute officers. myth. you definitely should salute your drill Sargent!
2. you can't have snacks in the barracks or sleep during fire guard. myth. you should definitely snack and nap during fire guard!
3. your not aloud to have fun stuff during basic. myth. you can carry your cell phone and play ps4 after lights out.
now that you know these our just "myths" you should have a very very fun basic training. all kinds of fun.
xD I think you made it a bit too obvious
You don't salute enlisted personnel.

That's the joke.

The gym one is only half true. They do body weight and endurance training in the army, and when you lift weights you get buff aka heavy which makes it very hard. However, gyms have pull-up bars, weighted chains for making push-ups harder, tread-mills for getting a run in when the weather won't allow you, and turf fields for practicing sprinting, leg-flutters etc. A gym is great, just make sure you use it correctly.
MorganFreeman's LeftBall i think what he was saying was don't become reliant on any fancy equipment.
"I'm going to learn how to kill people!"
Haha this guy's great!
Of course they don't want you to fail. Why would they spend money for you to be trained and then hope you fail
I had quickie training for 7 weeks in Nam, and lived through 3 combat jumps and 19 months of duty because ot it, ande a tough Basic. They told us that the more we sweat in peace, the less we bleed in war, and it's SO damned true, friend!
Drill Sergeants can't hit you...
Except during Urban Ops. At my BCT, we were given a rubber rifle in addition to all the combat gear we already had (Body Armor, Helmet, other misc things) and told to clear a room. We worked in teams of two. Inside one of the rooms, are two Drill Sergeants, whom I assure you are better at fighting. You're supposed to control the situation peacefully, but that never worked out for anyone. There were rules, you aren't allowed to punch back or try to really hurt...
Be sure that you wear a shirt with your service on it. DI's, DS's, RDC's, MTI's and CC's universally *love* it when recruits/trainees do that. :3
Finally someone agrees...my friend just got back from BCT Said it was like a vacation. When I go ill do whatever im told and then train to become a Ranger, which will turn me into a confident, badass, soldier.
That one is true. Don't tense your muscles and DO NOT LOOK! It's gonna be a bit sore for a day or two.
oh they still use it i remember that one very well , they won't give it to people who are allergic to penicillin i got mine at benning just over a year ago
Thank you for serving our country.
+Redwolf 893 Not necessarily. I have a SSG in my unit who fought in Fallujah with the 1st MarDiv so he's authorized to wear it.
RedWolf 893, I noticed that too. I was in the 1st Div. I have never known any branch to share unit patches like that, unless you were directly working in that group. Then after, that patch was removed.
It depends which basic training base you're going to. I went to Fort Jackson, I never got one, but friends who went to Fort Benning and Fort Leonard Wood told me that they got the Peanut Butter shot.
(Cont.) the DS, but they were going to fight you. They'd punch at you and generally resist you. Your job was to get them to tap out. Obviously the drill sergeants weren't giving 100% but 70% punches at 4000 FPPM (Face punches per minute) adds up. No matter how bad anyone got hurt, it was more fun than anything. Back at the barracks we'd compare each other's injuries. My lip was busted to hell and my nose was bloodied. I got away pretty easily. Pfc. Diaz on the other hand...
With the use of cell phones; they allow you to use your cell phones now but it is for an extremely limited time. I got to use mine 2 times for 5 minutes. They collect cell phones after use.
That's psychological. Drastic change of environment and lifestyle (army, prison, working camp) will cause your libido to fall for some time, month to 3. With proper stimulation you'll be still good to go, so no big deal.
I made some research back then, because I was afraid it will stay that way :D
His rank is Sergeant. It takes, at the very least, 4 years to reach, and that's if you're a spectacular leader and put everything you have into the Army. I don't know what you think you know about the military, but NCO's run just about everything. Four years is a long time, and thus a lot of experience. Rank has nothing to do with it.
Soloban81. That piece of what you say gum is a laxative. I learned the hard way. Try chewing on five at a time.
Bull I never had an errection the whole time i was there.
Why does he have a 1st Marine Division patch on when he is in the Army?
Micah Underwood he is marines prior service. I have a few NCOs in my company that wear the same combat patch.
long story short the regular army doesnt really care how fit or tactically sound you are as long as they can process out a 60% pt standard soldier. I.E. we had a guy in my basic who failed marksman ship 7 times and got 23/40 on the last and they passed him, he failed his pt test 10 times and he got 60% on all and they passed him, he failed every ruckmarch but the 12 in which he fell into the last platoon from 1st plt and they passed him. he's now protecting our freedoms in korea where i pray everyday he doesnt get one of my friends killed by not improving himself since then.
What Bct? My battle buddy didn't make it in fort sill last pt test he failed by 3 seconds they recycled him. But if it was over a minute you got kicked out. But I know this guy in my unit who was passed by DS and Ait instructors with like a 20minute run.
I agree. I went through OSUT and there was one guy who didn't pass a single PT test and the DS still passed him. Sad part is it was blatantly due to pure laziness.
I know a few guys who didn't make the cut. One guy was routinely lazy and got checked by all the DSs. Was told if he was ever the last one down for formation again (even if he was on time but just the last one out of the door) we'd get smoked. Other Privates broke every single rule during our buddy team exercise and they passed no problem. It's the ones who can think that get the boot.
Thank you So Much Sir I Will Be Joining Soon..
they dont use it any more i whent in 2010 at at ft knox
actually there is still hazing (abuse) at basic
I had one a year ago when I did BCT, it's still there, but they don't give it to those who are allergic to penicillin, wish I was...lol!
lol...youll get PLENTY of shots. depending on your health record and blood type and all that high speed shit ull get between 2-8 shots. i was unlucky and got 8. and trust me, its not sit down get comfy one at a time, they have DS'd on both sides of the line and you get multiple at once, I got 4 and 4. was sore as shit the next day. dont listen to all the rumors and things ppl say to scare you, its not bad at all. just do what your told and keep your mouth shut
0:35...he seemed to stutter an awful lot about that
Coming from a skinny guy, not all of them tend to have better endurance. It takes me about twice as long as an average person to build up endurance.
"Let's review a few. First, the white powder"
*Video freezes*
Sir, you have my attention...
i would like to point out im an infantry veteran, 1 tour afghanistan, one of the drill sgt punched the shit out of me twice, when you are on a weapons range they can hit you, but if you are not doing something safe that could result in lose of life.... ft benning 2009
yikes, what did you do?
actually it was because i didnt scream loud enough, after you shoot you have to do a no brass and ammo search, when the ds stepped in front of me i didnt yell as loud as he wanted (side note. i was sick at the time, and just about everybody will get sick, you will see people from all around america and even other countries while in basic, they have germs you never fought against, its going to suck) and yes he can say that you can pose a threat, i had a rifle in my hand at the time
you are so full of shit i went in 07 and no one got punched
lol i bet you are some garrison soldier, never going to get a CIB, well for pog fuck stains like yourself its a CAB, still not going to get it either, i bet you are a cherry little shit arent you, or a fobbit.... has to talk bit about basic, lets face it basic isnt worth a fuck anyways, fact is yea those shit sniffers can hit you, and you know its true.... now me personally id rather hear something about what you did in kunar, helmand, or kandahar, if nothing then stfu
no thanks i'm out don't care to get shit
Every flight/platoon/whatever has ONE of you loons. Or a shower monitor.
Or if you were really unlucky, both.
@4evrJONASlvr
All they do is yell at you. I still hear stories about hitting in the Marines though.
Nah they don't hit you, they "redline" you. In further detail they use the brim of their hat (yes that Infamous round black circular hat) to hit your head while they're screaming and barking at you throughout the day and when you come to see you have a redline on your forehead. At least that's what my dad told me back when he was in the army.
Speaking of the bathroom myth.. how often do you have the chance to go??
And youtube completely fucks up their layout AGAIN
i heard 2 to 3 of those myths
Is it true they do stress cards now?
You missed the saltpeter myth to keep the soldiers other "gun" unloaded. >_<
The myth about mre gum giving u the shits is also one that isn't true but the omelet mre has the best candy but tastes the worst lol i remember in basic everyone wanted to trade stuff out of mre crazy stuff ppl do when decent food isn't around.
Start young and early on PT
Was hoping it was a myth that i had to do more than 1 push up every day
My son just go to the Army
Go to the gym to supplement your calisthenics workout. And run a lot
Another funny myth was that the Drills told us was that they put stuff in the food to stop us from getting erections. We all know it was full of crap, but there were still a few people talking about it like it was real
What a POG!
Do they have bathroom stalls or just toliets where you poop in front of everyone?
is it true that if they a ask you to pick up their helmet/hat you should not because you are not worthy?? if so what should you do lol
Are these myths, I need to know please.
No coffee in basic, no energy shots while in ait.
they remove your cellphone in the Army
That first myth actually seems like it'd be helpful
no because you'd sweat your liquids out already that would cause you to dehydrate. hydration will keep you from spending a few extra catch up time out of recovery.
I meant not having to shit for a while, not piss
you still end up in recovery. you might just spend the next day trying to pass a shit the size of a football then.
honestly I've gone days without shitting and its not bad at all. Whatever I'm weird.....
brooklynSYCO you're supposed to do that at least once a day lol
Whatever they added or didn't, perhaps it was just plain food, I didn't jerk it once throughout Basic.
The shots they give you. Damn. It's not that hard to figure out.
thats the nick name! not a myth...
what is a phone card
From what I remember it's a prepaid card with minutes on it that you can use at the pay phones in basic training, assuming they don't allow you your cellphone. Nowadays they usually hide everyone's cell phone in their office and only let you use it every few weeks.
my brother's phone was sent home during the duration of BT
The funniest myth I ever heard is they make women go through Psychological Therapy to destroy there interest in men .
So handsome, makes me reconsider joining the Air Force. Haha
Thats just the way it is.:/ mi channnal
aaaaaaand stopped listening when he said dont go to the gym. Fail.
its bootcamp, not prison, they wouldent make people do that.
skinny guys do better than guys with only huge arm and chest muscles. skinny guys usually run better and have better endurance because it's easier for them to carry their body weight. so it's true.
I was in the Navy and the Army. Everybody knows the Air Force has the hottest chicks.
But which has hotter women between the Army and the Navy?
That's a tough one, Think I'm going to go with Army,
+61sasquatch 5.56 nice haha
+61sasquatch 5.56 that's why im joining the air force!
+61sasquatch 5.56 You joined the Navy then the Army? So you don't have to stick with just one?
Drill Sargeants cant hit you? Wait what? XD They are not supposed to, but hell they can and sometime will do if you result to be an ass. Just not in front of the cameras.
lol yeah, we even asked a drill sergeant why we couldn't get erections. We thought it was something they put in the 2 cups of powerade we were forced to drink at every meal.
Am I the only one that finds him super SUPER attractive? :)
drill sergeants*
this guy isnt even that high of a rank
