- Marine Cpl. Charles Mabry, deployed with 1st Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, from December 2009 to July 2010, shows us how laundry is handled in Afghanistan. Combat photographer, Lance Cpl. A.J. Lugo, demonstrates.
this whole video was just a trick to get this guy to do the laundry
He didnt rinse his clothes. Hes gonna be itchy
For some reason I felt uncomfortable watching this video. Has anyone else felt this way while watching this?
@@Hip-HopJunkie yes they are lying for some reason they have massive water tanks that create massive pressure this is fake this is someone who had come back to base and just wanted to make a dumb video, her did just that
Jason S. They asked him where he got the soap from& he said care package 😂
Okay
this should be a 3 second video of one marine saying "We dont"
😂😂😂
From a marine? All the say is “we do” semper fi mofuckers
Lmaooooooo
Months of wearing the same sweaty muddy clothes. Those have to be some itchy azz camies they gotta wear in deployment zones.
@@magneticmagnet4501 Yea but were still smelly.
Incase anyone is wondering, the water is scalding hot because it sits in large quantities throughout the FOB in the sun.
Chris Bowling sure does I remember pallets and pallets and pallets and u get the rest sittin in the sun in Iraq 🇮🇶 back in 03 and the mres some in the sun ..u already know..
Arya lmao, think the govt cares, volunteered our service, with all the funding we have, we don’t have the funds to do this it just costs too much
@Arya too busy spending 1.4 million per Tomahawk missile to give their troops *clean water*
@Arya 😂😂😂 you think the corp really cares about us?
Arya ok doc
time to invent the portable washing machine for marines
Lewis just what I was thinking.
It will never happen..
This statement is illogical. It'sajokeright?
We, United States Marines, ARE the washing machines!
The powers in charge would rather waste $100 billion on wasted military jets , which never get put into production. Send em to fight for you, have the fucking respect to send them prepared.
I saw a video about an African dude making money by laundering with a Bicycle powered machine he build. No electricity, just Human Power. It could double as a Work out.for the soldiers.
There is such a thing out there (I have one myself) but I can’t see it being practical for Marines out there. They’re better off rigging some sort of crank

If you're wondering why the money doesn't go to basic supplies for the Marines it's probably because all that money is being used on the Army, Navy, and Air Force

It's weird but I miss some of the shit like this. It's a struggle living like that but I still miss it for some reason. It was a shitty time being deployed to Iraq both times but it's also something that I look back on as experiences that really taught me a lot. It sounds crazy but I miss it all.
Making the best of any circumstance definitely is a reminder of the stern within. ❤
the worst memories make the best memories
Thanks for your service.
Historically, The Marine Corps provides the most Bang for the Buck as when I was in, We were told that we used only 6 cents of every Defense dollar
AngryNewYorker fun fact?
😂
And the rest went to the Jews
so only the 6%?
W Koh you mean tax payer money?
They sell a hand crank washer on Amazon. Would be perfect for these guys.

I was in the Air Force in Desert Storm, when we first arrived I washed my clothes like this. Then a little later the Saudis provided us laundry service.
I stopped using it for I often got wrong uniform items back BDU Pants to small, to short, etc. So I went back to doing my own laundry again as most everyone else did.
We would lay our clothing out on the walls behind the jets to dry, the concrete was hot as hell. Whenever they alerted and powered up our clothing was blown out into the desert. Yup war is hell
You guys didn't put your name on the uniform? Like write it using pen at hidden part of the uniform?
Lone Ranger you we’re in the Air Force, why’d you need to wash your uniform jkjk
Thats because the chair force, .!! You guys FTX its,at the Ramada lol

awkward silence and smile at the end lol
I honestly don't understand how people hate our men/ women of the military. Do you not see what they go threw? This is just one thing of thousands. You at home get discomforted when someone comes over, these guys have to endure being out of their comforts zones, and not in an easy way like you, for 6-12 months. Tell me you can do this? Its real easy to say F the war from the comfort of your A/C home with your steak dinner in front of you. Thank you for putting your lives before ours, God bless.
I look at those blue tubs at Wal-Mart in a whole new way now... In AFG I protected my blue tub like it was my only possession. So when you think you've hit rock bottom just remember, if you still have a bucket or can find one, you're still good....cause that's all you need. LOL Semper Fidelis TD

Military service teaches you a lot about gratefulness
The dislikes are the marines who had to go through this
where you get the soap from?
umm.. care package?
xD
Yeah, surprise! Before it was in your Call of Duty game, it was in real life.
Matt K holy shit bruh no way 😳 not everyones that stupid hes just saying
how it was funny
Thank you, I fully support the military and really appreciate everything you do. GO USMC !
People don't know, haven't got a clue, the sand gets into everything, simple things we take for granted, are nearly insurmountable difficulties, for these brave men & women. How can people blithely disrespect people like this? I'm glad the Marines are showing the mundane aspects of service peoples lives, on the line.
I think this fails on the recruiting aspect

This is actually useful for me a civilian who is single and doesn't have a washer in my rentals and doesn't want to use a machine to save month. It's easy and not using machines save a good amount of energy.
Those were the days: No AC units, no tents, no PXs, mail took 3 months. It was fun trying to decide after how many more days you should pull out the next ranger roll, especially once your socks can stand on their own
i have a lot of respect for the marine corps. but now i have even MORE! thank you guys soo much for protecting us all from harm..
“You don’t have to worry about the ANA stealing your chonies?”
That had me cracking up but too true though.
I will never ever complain about laundry day, ever again.
Good life lessons for when the government abandons them and they're homeless.
That is why if a person was any smarter than an average marine, they would obtain their bachelors FIRST and THEN enlist. Doing that now as a matter of fact...
DeShawn Terrance why would you enlist if you have a bachelors???
@@islemisawesome6145 I wanted to enlist since high school. I like the sense of comradery and being apart of the worlds greatest fighting force and I myself am in better shape than most people so naturally I like the physical challenge, and the benefits here and there. But after looking into where marines go after service I notice many of them have a hard time getting employed. So I decided to get my bachelors first to prevent that so that way I know I have a job after service.
DeShawn Terrance smart man
@@mikeoxlong6351 Have you tried not going into the marine or going into an MOS that actually helps later in life?
And go to college while in the military? Free?
Hey at least you got most of the sweat and dirt out. Stay cleaner Marine 👍 and stay safe!

"deployed" for what? ..typical 'drone'
lukStSerb the opportunity to make a little money in a tax free zone, followed by tuition assistance to pursue a higher education when back in then states is a good reason to deploy...

@@Ma_atch I think it's moreso the kind of liberal that would just be pissed they're using plastic bottles to stay alive and have some sense of normalcy in the desert.

we washed our clothes in ammo cans and had 5 gal water cans in Desert Storm, i lived the gypsy life in the combat train in the middle of the nowhere in that shithole desert. Semper Fi.. 1st LAI BN
My older boy was in Iraq in 2007. I've asked him about everything but laundry when he came home. This is good to know. He did say that it was so hot there that he had a heat stroke.
The things we civilians take for granted
Could say first world countries too, not every one around the world has the luxurgery of using a washing machine
This is humbling as a POG in the airwing. Semper FI!
the army have laundry specialists with laundry system to do the work!
+Adonis Guy The marines are men
marines doesn't have a laundry specialist mos?
what about the female marines; are they men too?
+Adonis Guy More than an army laundry specialist :')
the toughest and most feared men in the army and marine corps are the musicians, cooks, paralegals and journalists. grunts and special forces draws back in fear when they are around.
Thanks to all you folks serving... Praying all of you will get to come home soon..
in India we wash clothes pretty much like this
I'm so sorry

They should get water trucks and get water from the river and they should have washing machines.
Improvised, adapt and move forward
***** how about getting them a whole functional facility where they go do their laundry overnight :D sounds so easy to do
Erick Espinosa They should. They get guns and stuff so they should be able to get laundery service. Or they could send over some mexican ladies.
haywood jeblome lol
Marines go into war with everything they need, apart from a washing machine.
This is bootcamp stuff, remember the wash racks? Do not take things for granted, and stay motivated!
Respect to these men that fight day in and out for months in the same clothing when we all sit at home with a new pair of clean clothes to wear every day.
TH-cam is recommending this to everyone so those that will be drafted will have a little know-how in the field... consider this as an advance class..
@Dylan Klebold just search Firoillan Schnee sisters
LOL
If there was any reason for a draft most people probably wouldn't live long enough to do their laundry
2 years later, still waiting for the draft
@@neurofiedyamato8763 its coming.
"Where did you get the soap from?"
"care package. "
I think we taxpayers should pay for the soap, and a hand-crank washer.
Good method man. This goes to show you don't be waistful.take pride and wise and be useful. I'm gonna try it. Can't wait till I become a marine
“I’ve never seen them wash they’re clothes” 🤣🤣
My respect grows more and more for the military ❤❤❤❤❤
Thats what makes you happy for the smaller things in life and appreciate what you got
Damn Brother. I feel for you. In my days, we had a Mamasan and a Papasan and a shoe shine boy and a Honcho to make sure it was done properly. Dont forget the damn fabric softener lol. Hey do we still burn shitters these days with diesel fuel Or is that a thing of the past. See there is always a bright side to this .
Semper Fi. Thanks for your service bro
I remember those times. LOL. I remember using MRE boxes with garbage bags and pretty much any kind of soap to clean my uniforms. The upside is, once you put the clothes on a line, across a vehicle or across a cot...it only took a few mins for them to be dry so doing laundry didn't take all day...lol
Marines thk you be safe were proud of you 🚔
My hat goes off to all of our service men and women, especially those forward deployed in crap-hole countries like this. My time in the Navy during Dessert Shield/Storm was a little more comfortable, being onboard the USS America (CV-66). I was an ordanceman in an F-14 Tomcat squadron. Had a few buddies from high-school in the Army during DS that spent some time out in the sand box in Iraq and Kuwait....they had some rough stories. When we all caught-up back home after the war, I kinda felt bad telling them about our 4 meals a day, air-conditioning, laundry and TV, oh, and ice cream....lol. Actually, it was a little fun rubbing it in with them...all in good fun. We're all on the same team. Semper Fi to all my Marine buddies out there.
step 1: put water in the bucket
step 2: grab the crayons
i remember how powerful detergent is even in the first minute when i was out in theater. i thought washing machines did most of the work but the laundry detergent is some pretty potent stuff
I know you're tired of hearing it...Thank you for your service

I miss that Cpl. Mabry’s channel so much, I remember there was one video showing Lugo making a pizza from care package in Marjah. And another one demonstrating what he had packed in his assault pack. Both provided very surreal insight of how daily life in frontline is really like.
But seems like he decided to take down the channel or got taken down for some reason.😕
@anteracmacash I completely understand your position. I love our Marines and the job that they are doing, knowing that some of my sons may lay down their life for this cause themselves. But I believe that these videos are presented in a way that entire families can view them so that they can be seen by all, so I hope that we may just agree to disagree on this issue. God bless you for appreciating their sacrifice and supporting our boys over there so we can be safe here,
Oh yeah this brings back memories, I love that shit, it makes ya appreciate the little stuff when you get state side for bout a month 😂
Lots of care packages are greatly needed for our military.
My mom makes me do this when the washer ain’t working so I’m used to this I can say

Yeah I'm a Desert Storm veteran the first time I ever seen bottled water was on a Blackhawk helicopter shipping and loads of the stuff I couldn't believe there was water in a bottle I never seen it before in my life but that's how we did laundry do the bucket full of water Sun detergent and your hands old school
where would you get drinking water from?
this is how I do my laundry back in an Asian boarding school.
Nothing is extra ordinary. That's how many people wash their clothes in India. Everyone knows how to do it here.
In bootcamp you wash on a concrete flat sink and cold water. A brush and liquid soap, just like grandma did!
Ahhh time for me to start learning these tips and tricks

You don't clean in the battlefield. You just wipe off the dirt and you're all good.
Oh, Really? You want to _"enjoy living"_ then go home ..don't expect this while destroying someone else's homeland for your govt's profit.
In Ad Diwahniyah (Iraq). We had tubs plastic types from local shops and did it the same way till we actually got whashers and dryers @Camp Santo Domingo. In Basra (Bucca)they had a KBR type laundromat ...
