What It Takes To Survive Coast Guard Boot Camp

- We spent four days inside the United States Coast Guard's intense, eight-week basic training program in Cape May, New Jersey. Coast Guard recruits undergo an intense journey that’s heavy on both academic and physical challenges. What sets it apart are the brutal “smoke sessions,” where recruits are disciplined as a group for mistakes made by individuals in their respective companies. We were embedded at Training Center Cape May for four days, allowing us to see different companies at various stages of the program, culminating with the emotional graduation ceremony on the Friday of week eight.

What It Takes To Survive Coast Guard Boot Camp
The scariest part is when you don’t know what they just told you
Elizabeth French true!!
Just pretend like you heard them crystal clear and yell "Sir yes sir."
just shout AYE AYE SIR or YES SIR every single time and you're gonna be okay
@@ErnestJay88 and what if you get asked ARE YOU GAY?!?!? but you dont know what you were told?
@@utrgan6995 NO SIR !

What... Lol.
Our commandant taught our squad that to execute a yell properly, the voice must come from the chest instead of the throat.

I am proud to say my stepson just graduated from this academy (July 2023). Yes, he wanted to get out. Yes, he said it was dififcult. But most importantly, yes, he is an accomplished and proud part of the USCG.
Thank you, Cape May and thank you video crew for publishing this so we can all receive a small glimpse of what it means to become and be a United States Coast Guard.
Congratulations to all who have and will continue to make it through. May God bless you each of you the strength and wisdom.
Congratulations to your stepson.
@@edprince9079 Thank you very much.
I’m in the Air Force and I respect the Coast Guard however I know they are under respected. But after watching this video I definitely have even more respect for them. Their boot camp is no joke! I’m very impressed. They have done well in solidifying their spot as one of the military branches.

Did my time in the army and went to school for free...GI Bill is a good gig.
Would have been smarter to just the Air Force
I mean you shouldn't have to do that to lift your self out of poverty
I'm now 73 years old and graduated from Coast Guard boot camp in June 1969. It was the experience of a lifetime and brought back mostly great and a couple of painful memories. It was well worth it. And believe it or not, boot camp back then was much worse than a lot of what was shown in this video. After boot camp, I was stationed aboard the USCGC Ingram in Norfolk, VA. After a unique set of assignments, I was promoted to Yeoman First Class during my first 4-year enlistment and finished undergraduate and graduate school while on active duty in 1976. I also spent several years in the Coast Guard Reserves. I owe my life and a diverse and successful number of careers in the public and private sectors to the USCG. I am proud of the men and women who serve this vital military organization, the nation's oldest and continuous sea-going service. SEMPER PARATUS!
Much respect. Thank you for your service.

My childhood friend worked his ass off to become a Canadian coast guard. He made everyone so proud, but he had a wakeboard accident that absolutely destroyed his leg and ability to walk, subsequently loosing said employment. Saddest story I know, and even sadder seeing what he had to go through to get where he was. He has since been able to become an EMS first responder, so that will do. Can't keep down a legend.
Make no mistake, Canadian coast guards do not go the same grueling military experience as the USCG.
Still, very sad for your friend to jot be able to live his childhood dream because of an accident.

Some information that they missed is: They can send you back as many weeks as they want as discipline. But it also depends on what you’ve done. When you get set back you change to the company before you. Also, you do get breaks near the end of boot camp. The first time is in week 7 or 8 when you can go to the exchange and restaurant on base and also use your cellphone. The second time, you may go off base. However they do not allow you to go to the beach, because they can’t risk anyone getting injured. Once there was a girl who got badly hurt. I think she broke some bones? Anyways, I believe she was in boot camp for about 20ish weeks. But she finally graduated with my brothers company last year. Another thing is; someone got sent back to week 2 i believe for flicking the company company commander on the bus right after he graduated. Also, credits to my brother for this info!
how did he think that would go lmaooo it isnt highschool grad😭
I heard that story about flipping a CC off and getting sent back after graduation a long time ago. I always thought it was an urban legend. Did it really happen?

“When soldiers lack discipline, the fault lies with their commander”
~Tywin Lannister
This is a basic concept that's been understood since Alexander the great. The commanders job is maintaining good order and discipline. There's even a catch all law in military law, article 134, that is about anything that brings discredit upon the armed forces or goes against good order and discipline.
No need to quote make believe characters, there are hundreds if quotes about this by real people

@@CGCareerCentralwhat is the point of the loud yelling
@@definitlynotbenlente7671 The point is to initiate a sense of calm and focus by forcing them into stressful situations before they actually go to war. This insures that when they go to war they are calm and focused on their mission. Hope this helps!! 😊

That Petty Offficer Gunn is a tough lady. I believe those drill instructors get a real joy having that much power. I served in the Marine Corps and the Navy.

I served at Paris Island South Carolina for the USMC and I served at Great Lakes Recruit station in North Chicago.

O-147 Graduate November 1995
27 Years Later I see this as 8 of the most important weeks in my life. It was definitely a life changer for me.
I only served a 4 year term in the CG, but those 8 weeks I would do over again. It pushed me beyond my limits. 🇺🇸⚓️
Thank you for this video.
I was right behind you brother. Graduated December 1995 in Yankee-147. We were in boot camp for a couple weeks together at least. Boot camp was a great "growing up" experience for me.
is it true you guys had to combat with pirates and smugglers
Your lucky on the 8 weeks, class of 81, FOXTROT 139 Alameda, boot was 13 weeks back then.

Well, first, they are called company commanders, not drill sergeant. And second, they have a max amount of time they can do it, that's why they time it, not cuz they want to, they have to.
@@viviangonzalez1398 I believe you, was just trying to make a joke
I wonder how long it’s gonna go
@@viviangonzalez1398 Hello, True. Coast Guard recruits address all Coasties, even CCS, as "sir" or "ma'am;" yet, after the first two weeks, CG recruits address all NCOs by rank and surname, but continue to address all CG officers as "sir" or "ma'am."
When I was in Naval boot camp if you complained about thirst or the heat, the whole company would be "Mashed" where every single exercise in boot camp was continuously done for an hour straight on the hot "grinder" (field or asphalt). Some wussies caused us to do it several times during training. Guaranteed to make you lose five pounds after.

Me: my dad signed me up for swim lessons
:Open your mouth. DID I TELL YOU TO STOP

Banjo man I don’t get it
I went thru in 1988, during the winter. I was lucky that it was snowing so we didn't have to do the obstacle course. Anyone considering USCG, make sure you cam swim or learn to swim prior to going in. This will relieve a ton of unnecessary stress. Also, get in shape (push ups, sit ups, run 2 miles frequently).
It’s good to see that Cape May hasn’t changed since I was there in 1987. This training saved my life and the life of a fisherman caught in a extreme winter storm in North Puget sound in Washington State.

Sierra 112 here (6/1982) - I think one of these companies was Sierra as well. This brought back a lot of memories. Same barracks, though the bunks were newer. It looks like it was the hooks not in on the bed that got you in trouble, with ss it was not having the combo on your lock set to zero. God forbid a locker was not locked - White Tornado (CC trashed the whole place). I'm not going to tell a "log cabin" story but here's a few things that have changed. First, nice sneakers. They use New Balances. Ours were canvas - think PF Flyers. One of my feet got so bloody they eventually allowed me to purchase a decent pair of running shoes at the Exchange. I also noticed them using M-16s for marching/attitude adjustments. We used M-1s which were heavier and longer. Overall, though, brought back many memories.
One boot camp was enough for me for this lifetime. Thanks
Imagine having a voice crack in the middle of shouting😂🤣😂
Oh dude the teasing thatll follow
It happens more often than you might think.
If your voice doesn't crack either A: You aren't shouting loud enough and half assing it or B: you have served for a few years already and your vocals are shredded.

My respect to the people in the coast guard
I just failed it and got separated on Dec 1st 2023 so 2 weeks ago. I got deadly sick with cold, I couldn't even sleep because of sore throat. It hurt to breathe and my nose was stuck. And all they gave me was cough drops and I got pinkeyes. Training was fine PT was fine but sickness put me down. I was sick for the whole time in Discharge hold element for 2 weeks and even until now. It's getting better but i've been sick for 2 months and I ended up making an appointment to see a doctor next week. I think bootcamp NEEDS to do something better to handle the sickness. I feel like when it comes to sickness like my extreme case (not even being able to breathe properly), it's not even just mental endurance problem. I love the coast guard and respect and admire those who go through this intense training!

Really awesome, by any chance do you know the living conditions of living in the coast guard, had wanted to join the navy, but found out that living conditions on the ship are terrible, a lot of construction going on at night, cold water, and things of that nature.

As an enlisted active duty sailor in the US Navy going on 9 years now, I found this adorable. Keep up the good work Coast Guard.
What I’m afraid of is accidentally saying “what” after they yell at me.
Im sorry what
That mistake would only happen once, let me tell you, unless you really love forced physical activity.
SAY WHAT AGAIN! I DOUBLE DARE YOU!
The correct response, I believe, is: "[commanding officer's title & last name], [recruit's title & last name], I request you say again your last."
I accidentally did that once. The Petty Officer I said that to made me stand in the middle of the room and do fast, intense exercises while screaming "sorry" as loud as I could.

@@Ferreira0504 there's a lot. Did you know that holding a matress over your head isn't just optional there, but mandatory? I do! You can also discover how much you hate "linehandling", or ways to ruin lunch (as they showed in here). They'll also introduce you to SNIPER POSITION, in which short range is NOT your friend. There's a lot they can do. It's not all mental, a lot is psychological.

Ive always admired the coast guard.
I like the way it starts with a pep talk in an airport lounge followed by a ride on a chartered style bus.
The Coast Guard is so underrespected. Not only do they have to be a military organization, but they are also every form of first responders out there. They aren't just people who drive boats, they're policeman, they're paramedics, they're firefighters, they're servicemen. They do more than just sit in the water all day and night, and I respect that.
Hell yeah we are. The amount of CPR I'm required to know for our Small about station is insane.
@@xtnsn4395 You had to do more than the basic CPR class at a small boat station??
Technically the US Coast Guard isn't a component of the US Armed Forces. It was a part of the US Treasury Department until 1967. After that it was part of the US Dpartment of Transportation. Then in 2003 it was placed under the Department of Homeland Security.
@@Truly1Tom Very interesting. I wonder why it was part of the treasury department, because doesn't that just involve our country's economics? I guess that's kinda why the four main branches don't really see it as a "branch" in all the memes then.

Jeez, Captain Gibbons sure knows how to motivate. I’m almost tempted to enlist in the CG myself.

I fell so bad for him, he is likely still in Alabama.

I live a mile west of the Coast Guard station Fairport Harbor, Ohio on Lake Erie. Crazy to think what those there went through for training to get there. Then again they are out there in the most dangerous conditions the lake has to offer,
Best advice I can give. (I went through in 15NOV23.) study the piece nomenclature for m16, 11 general orders, and know how to describe ranks not just know them by looking at them but saying what each rocker and stripe means and where it goes. And practicing using recruit coms in classes and asking lots of questions in class.
It’s definitely hard! But you can get through it! We had a class of 120 and about 50-60 got rolled back or quit
“Why’d you join the Coast Guard?”
“Idk”
Air force rejected me
"I need money "
It sounded fun
“Checked the wrong box on accident “ “It’s the branch no one talks about”
“Wanted the benefits with the least amount of work” 💀😂
@@James-dq7oi it's harder to join the coast guard.
