What is your major malfunction numbnuts?! Didn't mommy and daddy show you enough attention when you were a child?!! Now I want comments, damnit, and I want them now! Military movies! GO!
A friend of mine went through basic and heard the same story about something in the food that kept your sex drive down. Rumours spread that it was in the potatoes. One night one of the guys in his group got hard and loudly exclaimed out of the washroom "Your damn potatoes can't keep me down!"
Nathan M there is semi truth to that. In my basic training I didn’t pop a single boner until around week 6. Woke up in the middle of the night full mast and took care of it in the far bathroom stall hahaha
There wasn't anything added to the food in Basic Training. When you are assigned to a barracks containing 50 other dudes. 8 weeks of Infantry school and not a single female in sight, there isn't anything to give you a boner.
Fun true fact: my husband did 3 tours in Iraq. Been out for about 7 years. After a long long while, he cooked dinner last night. It was really flipping good. I complimented him today again. His reply? “You’re welcome for my service...”
Fun fact: it was mostly 82nd Airborne. Some Rangers, some Marines, some Delta, some Air Force. The result of an "off the shelf" plan to take back a different, nearby island, "just in case". Shit happened, plan was executed, problem solved. Subject matter expert, having been there. Marine involvement.
Hold on... i watched a documentary where it was the Navy SEALS that got ambushed... they had to fall back to the ocean and swim for a few days until a ship could pick them up... in fact one dude was shot once or twice and he still treaded water for 2 days.
R. Lee Ermey played a Drill Instructor so well because he actually was one. He served in India Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, at Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego from 1965 to 1967. Having gone through Marine Corp boot camp this is by far the most accurate depiction of what boot camp and Drill Instructors are like.
He was also in, The Boys in Company C. Another good movie ruined by the M*A*S*H effect. The resolution of the movie is a sports competition, in this case a soccer game. WTF?
Yep, he was "The Hollywood Marine". No sand fleas for him. I did radio school at MCRD SD. We were across the parade ground from the quonset huts. We would find ways to torture the boots while they marched on the blacktop. If anyone went through boot in the summer of 66, I'm sorry!
Yeah, for real. Interesting fact about producing this commercial -- they initially were going to get Tom Hanks to play the role of the lava monster, but Hanks' schedule didn't line up quite right. Through a couple strokes of luck they actually wound up finding a real lava monster named Gunnstein from eastern Norway to play the part.
@@BlackRifleCoffeeCompany 20 years Navy here. Way back when they filmed a Navy commercial on my ship of a helo landing in a storm. I was off camera holding a fire hose that was providing the "rain" as we sat pierside. Everyone on camera was an actor. Guess we weren't pretty enough. For Navy movies go back to "The Final Countdown" USS Nimitz goes back in time to Pearl Harbor Dec 1941. Or "Battleship" total BS movie but fun.
All these vets have great jobs and actual experience, meanwhile I served seven years in the Marine Corps and the only stories I have worth telling are the ones of drunken barracks parties.
I was Air Force Security Forces. We always had drunken TDY Marines and paratroopers stagger up to the gate on Saturday mornings. One of them puked at my gate. Great times.
Fun fact: The guy that played Roy the bar owner in Heartbreak Ridge Bo Svenson emigrated to the US and when he was 17 enlisted in the Marines in 1958 and served for six years before he was honorably discharged.
I just started a "flamewar" on a sports forum! My answer "The 5th Panzer Division" is apparently NOT the "right answer" to the question "Who won the 1st Tour De France?"
John Wick, Bourne series, Dirty Dozen, The Punisher (Netflix series), American Sniper, Shooter (film and Tv series), Clear and Present Danger, Patriots Day, The Tom Clancy Jack Ryan series, Sicario I and II
@@BlackRifleCoffeeCompany there is a series called Shooter on Netflix that I watched the first season of. It was a pretty interesting take on snipers with some actual knowledge along the way. (US Marine here and definitely not a black belt in Karate, just a Green belt in MCMAP... OORAH!)
ya know that actually hurt the first time i heard it because i was in high school when 9/11 happened i was hyped to join the airforce and serve as payback then a genetic disease fucked me so ive always felt guilty that i could not do my part but now i laugh my ass off at it every time.
That whole thing about "putting stuff in the food" causing temporary impotence is definitely just a basic training urban legend (we had that same one in the Air Force, only we heard they put it in the Gatorade). It's really just the mental and emotional stress involved in adjusting to the whole experience that causes that.
I was able to rub one out during Air Force BMT while on Dorm Guard and that was the only time. But we always joked that the last stall was where you went with a sock called a dreamcatcher.
You sound like my dorm guard partner. Dude would run off every night to rub one out. It was a little disturbing, but whatever ya gotta do to keep it together i guess. Me, i had no desire for anything til graduation and i saw my (at the time) fiancee for the first time in months... That was a little embarrassing... Full mast while my MTI was doing our pre-parade inspection... He admitted to me later that night back in the dorm that he almost, almost, made a scene about it.
@I Am The One Who Knocks I know full well what it stands for and my wife kept hearing him open his shows when I would watch them and liked the sound of it as a name. Had an uncle KIA in korea named arlie so that was the spelling. Dumbass, really?
Fun Fact most of the extras in We were Soldiers were actual National Guardsmen the French Lt. that got shot in the Grape was from the 1st Battalion, 184th Infantry Regiment he was chosen because he spoke fluent French.....I had my claim to fame for pissing on the Mortar Tubes Hey what's a Jarhead to do LOL !!!
We were soldier's left out the baddest MF'er of the whole battle...Rick Rescorla. He was the guy pictured on the cover of the book, so I don't know why they left him out of the movie.
I saw We Were Soldiers the night it came out. I thought it was a great movie (still do). As the credits rolled and lights came on, an elderly gentleman behind me stood up, looked at his wife and said "they finally got it right. that's how it was". And he was crying. It's been almost 20 years, but I'll never forget the look on that man's face.
Fun fact: My friend was an extra in the Heartbreak Ridge water-fight scene... He was an active Marine at Pendelton during those years. Damn he has some great stories.

@@mullittmustang256 thank you sir. I appreciate the time you took out of your day for me.

The sharpest steel is forged during the hottest fires of adversity
DavidSixSixFive yup. Air Cav legend. What I was suggesting is that they do a “veterans react” on that movie and Sam Elliot playing Plumley in particular
I was an 0313 and Camp Talega was where we were based out of!! 4th LAR Alpha & H&S Co! Heartbreak Ridge was filmed mostly in the Quonset huts, in the river bed and surrounding hills!
My dad was a drill Sgt during Vietnam. He took two tours. I remember him watching full metal jacket, old John Wayne ones (Iwo Jima,etc) and he checked out Platoon when it came out. The only ones he would let me watch were the John Wayne ones. The other ones were too "adult" for my young brain. Best man I ever met, semper fi!
One thing that people don't realize, when 'The sands if Iwo Jime' came out, Congress was looking at absorbing the Marines back into the navy. That movie was a major factor in saving the Corps.
Kubrick did 4 military themed films. 1957 - Paths of Glory, World War 1; 1964 - Dr. Strangelove, US Air Force; 1975 - Barry Lyndon, 18th Century British, and Full Metal Jacket.
‘We had to serve our country so we’re tired’. If that wasn’t scripted before hand then that’s one of the best Veteran one-liners I’ve ever heard. Bravo to you Mat, bravo.
Fun Fact: The reason gunny makes such a good drill sergeant is because he was one. In fact that is how he got the part in full metal jacket. He was on set as an adviser. And while demonstrating it for everyone (to show the actor that had the part how to do it) the director saw how he looked on camera (he had been watching him do it in person but after the third or fourth time had a look at it through the camera and was like "this is what I have been looking for") and gave him the part and thus his acting career was born.
My grandfather who served in ww2 loves your guys videos hes 100 now he went into the army right after pearl harbor happened and he served throughout the whole war
Ermey Was a US Marine DI during Vietnam. He was also hired to be tech on DIs. I watched this movie so many times before I went to Parris Island. Semper Fidelis
Fun fact: I refer to that angry looking face as "Resting Murder Face." Also, those guys are so tired they must be retired. ...I will see myself to the door.
One of my instructors, Sensei Harden actually brought myself and several of my classmates to Parris Island for a couple of days to train cadets in the MCMAPS program. It was a GREAT experience to tour the camp and then train with the cadets. We trained with them In our particular system of Urban Kenpo Martial Arts for about two hours, and it was a REALLY interesting scene to watch nearly ALL of them come back and train with us more rather than go to lunch. Good times.
Accurate, no choking the dolphin in boot camp for me either, July-Oct 97 MCRD San Diego. We were all too tired at the end of the day and we absolutely had zero time to ourselves.
Didn't they literally just finish outfitting all of their infantry with brand new H&K rifles? Plus aren't they the sole user of the AH-1Z attack helicopters, and the CH-53 and CH-46 transport helos, as well as the sole American user of the F-35B? Plus, even their POGs get ACOGs. That "hand me down" claim is a myth, those fuckers are rolling in gucci gear.
@@TheRoadhammer379 dude i was using a mine detector from.vietnam in iraq to check for ieds... the only thing we ever got brand new was the M16A4.

Siege of Firebase Gloria. Another lesser known movie with Gunny Ermey.
A friend of mine went through basic and heard the same story about something in the food that kept your sex drive down. Rumours spread that it was in the potatoes. One night one of the guys in his group got hard and loudly exclaimed out of the washroom "Your damn potatoes can't keep me down!"
Nathan M there is semi truth to that. In my basic training I didn’t pop a single boner until around week 6. Woke up in the middle of the night full mast and took care of it in the far bathroom stall hahaha
Burps ironically probably because there was only men around you
It was called "saltpeter" (sic). I heard about it in basic back in '69!
SaltPeter, oddly named, is responsible historically on ships for keeping sex drive to a minimum. Not sure about the marine corps.
There wasn't anything added to the food in Basic Training. When you are assigned to a barracks containing 50 other dudes. 8 weeks of Infantry school and not a single female in sight, there isn't anything to give you a boner.
Fun true fact: my husband did 3 tours in Iraq. Been out for about 7 years. After a long long while, he cooked dinner last night. It was really flipping good. I complimented him today again. His reply? “You’re welcome for my service...”

I really loved the comment about the "mouth breather" in basic. I laughed my ass off.
Kubrick did 4 military themed films. 1957 - Paths of Glory, World War 1; 1964 - Dr. Strangelove, US Air Force; 1975 - Barry Lyndon, 18th Century British, and Full Metal Jacket.
*Look at that stack*
"What, the dude or his awards?"
Lol, awesome video
Mat, your face when they were debating the donut issue, it was priceless!
The stuff they put in the coffee during basics...."Blue Stone".
I legit died at “50 shades of semper-fi” I’m still crying 😂😂😂
You should check out “the last castle”. General goes to jail, makes them act like soldiers again... over throws prison guards
was an awesome movie
Stripes:
"I want some more Army training."
Lighten up Francis
‘We had to serve our country so we’re tired’. If that wasn’t scripted before hand then that’s one of the best Veteran one-liners I’ve ever heard. Bravo to you Mat, bravo.
A couple months ago I first watched heartbreak ridge. Great movie for a 12 year old. Amazing actor too. That’s where I went to school too
In no particular order: Stripes, Kelly's Heroes, Taps, We Were Soldiers, and The Deer Hunter.
Stefan love Kelly’s heroes the only WW2 film set in the 60s.
Fun Fact: The reason gunny makes such a good drill sergeant is because he was one. In fact that is how he got the part in full metal jacket. He was on set as an adviser. And while demonstrating it for everyone (to show the actor that had the part how to do it) the director saw how he looked on camera (he had been watching him do it in person but after the third or fourth time had a look at it through the camera and was like "this is what I have been looking for") and gave him the part and thus his acting career was born.
My grandfather who served in ww2 loves your guys videos hes 100 now he went into the army right after pearl harbor happened and he served throughout the whole war
Ermey Was a US Marine DI during Vietnam. He was also hired to be tech on DIs. I watched this movie so many times before I went to Parris Island. Semper Fidelis
The amount of effort that went into "Fifty Shades of Semper Fi." I love it!
I mean uh, yeah uh, cool.
The punisher,American Sniper, and Lone Survivor
I would buy a DVD of these guys doing commentary on full length movies.
Great ethic’s BRCC has love how u back troops respect from England lad
Fun fact: I refer to that angry looking face as "Resting Murder Face."
Also, those guys are so tired they must be retired.
...I will see myself to the door.
I miss Gunny, he was one of the good ones.
One of the best.
He was awesome.
Yeah, at ease Gunny, Semper Fi!
I love that ending!
I remember when I went through boot I didn’t get morning wood until the last week we were there
Even after 3 yrs of being retired from the ARMY, the knife hand is still strong!!
You guys ROCK
2 years brcc membership.
Hell yeah!
One of my instructors, Sensei Harden actually brought myself and several of my classmates to Parris Island for a couple of days to train cadets in the MCMAPS program. It was a GREAT experience to tour the camp and then train with the cadets. We trained with them In our particular system of Urban Kenpo Martial Arts for about two hours, and it was a REALLY interesting scene to watch nearly ALL of them come back and train with us more rather than go to lunch. Good times.
Accurate, no choking the dolphin in boot camp for me either, July-Oct 97 MCRD San Diego. We were all too tired at the end of the day and we absolutely had zero time to ourselves.
Not once in three months, yea me either. It was a "fast" ten days at home!
Marine corps gets hand me downs and still smashes everything in the ao.
Didn't they literally just finish outfitting all of their infantry with brand new H&K rifles? Plus aren't they the sole user of the AH-1Z attack helicopters, and the CH-53 and CH-46 transport helos, as well as the sole American user of the F-35B? Plus, even their POGs get ACOGs. That "hand me down" claim is a myth, those fuckers are rolling in gucci gear.
@@USN1985dos, YES on all the above. Someone is thinking of the NG units
Try being a british soldier or royal marine,we get fuck all
@@TheRoadhammer379 dude i was using a mine detector from.vietnam in iraq to check for ieds... the only thing we ever got brand new was the M16A4. Hell even my flak jacket was defective and they didnt tell me about until after i came back from Afghanistan. Little did i know i wore that bastard for 9 months and it would have done me no good..
@@mulisha0351 I bet it was hot as shit in that thing as well wasn't it?
Wouldn't have stopped a bit of gravel kicked up by a donkey, but you probably wore that thing like your life depended on it every day...... because it did!
What assholes! Can you sue them for that shit? Or are you just glad to be alive?
Mat, Marine veteran here, got super excited when you said you'd sign your book with a crayon, better be purple though. They taste the Best!
How about a WHOLE FMJ episode? Skipping the eh parts. You three are perfect for it. I'd watch it live even.
Matt best book was awsomen and I'm a Marine. I recommend it to everyone that served over seas
You NEED to make Fifty Shades of Semper Fi, then the sequel Even Shadier, then the trilogy capstone for the inevitable saga - Deployment.
The band modulate made an industrial song about the "gouge out your eyeball and..." clip.
Oh those ‘90s commercials. At the time, I thought the volcano monster reminded me of a boss from Quake 1
