I would like to thank all of the men and women who serve and have served in our armed forces.
they kill the innocent people
Thank You !! 😊
This must not be like Normal for you Army types. ( Marine here ) I know Marine Corps Bootcamp at MCRD Parris Island, our 1st day began at 0200 stepping on the little yellow footprints, and being yelled at by everyone from the Marine CPL at the Airport in Charleston, to the Bus driver who took us to P.I. P.I. is like being on another planet, a hostile planet with people who seem to hate your guts and you annoy them greatly. You spend the next 3 months being told what, when, where, and how, sunup to sundown, and you do not deviate from that until you graduate. There are no "easy nice" days. I am not trying to "outdo" the Army here, Just telling it like it was for us in 1981 at Parris Island. we adapted, just as you do to it. It is weird coming from the civilian world as a 17yr old, into that world. when you graduate, you are a different animal than what got off that bus. Kids today need that culture shock, just as we did. You think you have a fine bead on things at that age, but find out quick, you don't know nothing. Glad to see young people still joining. The Nation needs them. Semper Fi.
It was that way for the Army also in 1981 like you had it. All hell breaking loose on day 1. Now the services added an extra week at Basic for only in processing. That is haircuts, uniform issue, shots, dental, etc. The Marines do the same thing, called receiving week. Marine's boot camp is 13 weeks.
In 04 the Marine recruits were being yelled at in the MEPS to get in line and walk to the bus bringing them to the airport lol.
The Army Drill Seargent's weren't big on yelling (in 1967), just training. The yelling wasn't at us, it was with us.
They're pogs, man. Plus, it's reception. When I went through, there was no yelling at reception either. But, when we left reception, and got off the bus, the sharks absolutely destroyed us from day 1. I was infantry. Our basic is a completely different animal.
This is Reception. They start true Basic Training after all these little details are taken care of. So this isn't really Basic Training yet.
Nice CamelBaks, back in my day they gave us the cheap canteens, and we had to give them back after we graduated 😆
I joined in 2013, we were issued both.
Air Force 2010 we got both and got to keep both
Those obedience sack will be smelly as the mold by the time they graduate AIT...
nothing like the smell of cold plastic as your cold fingers struggle to drink cold water in cold weather 😅 i remember once we preparing to go somewhere and one of the privates (as we were called) said something about lister bags. A DS turns around and says "who doesn't like lister bags? i have a lister bag hanging in my living room." 😅 nobody doubted him.
I still remember the day I joined the Australian army at the tender age of 17. One of the most confused and exciting day of my life.

@@OmarAlhsn-to7in HI
I was drafted in 1971, this wasn't anywhere close to what we experienced. They asked you what your shoe size was, shoved two pairs of boots and a pair of dress shoes at you and told you to move on. The rest you just took what they gave you although everything seemed to fit pretty close.
Yeah I'm glad they take the time to measure everything now. U don't wanna fuck around when it comes to your feet
In Canada they use a 3D scanner to get your sizes
That's cool
Not the army basic training I went to. Immediately getting off the bus, the drill sergeants were in our faces making us doing push ups until them got bored of yelling.
This is just reception.. The yelling doesn't start until they arrive at their company, getting off the buses.
I went through Army BT twice. Once in 1986 (Ft. Sill, OK) and again in 2004 (Ft. Leonard Wood, MO). Depending on when a trainee arrives at Reception could be a day or several days. The first time I went through in 1986, reception was really great. The dining facility was ridiculously good. I seriously remember steaks (cooked to order), and really We were mostly left alone.
They’re not even yelling at them.
Ikr, no wonder these new soldiers are so soft.
I am not military, so I don't any better. But what good does yelling at people do?@@Stormtrooper_Accuracy
@DavidCohen-un1zm Yelling can be used as a motivational tool, a practice that dates back to ancient armies. Drill sergeants receive training on how to use their voices to project authority and command attention, while also protecting their vocal cords. It toughens up soft civilians.
I will yeeellllll at you all the day and we will look how motivated you get. I can if i want then, break you at peaces. . @@Stormtrooper_Accuracy
@madame-rosalitaduchesse7636 English and grammar gets the best of us. Try again.
That shoe crew is doing an outstanding job. Most important link in that chain.
In my time they asked us our shoe size then threw a pair of boots at us. That's it.
I had worked in a shoe store in high school. When I enlisted in '67, I was glad that they used the Brannock device to measure the feet. I got perfect footwear. Same here!
they do a terrible job. absolutely terrible. if you haven't served you may just think im being mean but 9/10 they just eyeball your feet and give you a pair of boots.
I remember going to the gym to get my first pay check in 1982, after taxes I think my pay for two weeks was like $120.00. I worked at a power plant prior to joining and I was making $120.00 a day.
"most important link in the chain" that's a phrase a lot of people don't hear often
i leave the 5th of next month, i cant wait, so excited
Good Luck sister. This is the nice job
Thank you all for your service and family’s sacrifice. Best of luck, and be safe. Thank you
Blonde girl 11:11 who knows her
I don't remember all those people helping out. Just fill the dufflebag and to the barracks. Back when pay was really low...lol..1977
I'm guessing there was a backlog?
True. Army Ft.Dix 1973
So in other words a lot of y'all got clothes and shoes that didn't fit?
They have it made these days with boots. When I was in the Army we had black combat boots and had to keep them polished!!!
And our PT uniforms were gray.
Nothing against females enlisting but make sure you're actually meeting the standards. When I first joined too many female recruits were given free passes out of fear of scrutiny from higher ups.
Standards are non existent, obviously.
@@bmrz38this is a male world. So it is time to make female standards for women ok.
these kids got off easy joining the army but i glad they choose to serve!!!!!!!!!
The army provides you with self disciple and leadership skills, only costs you your time and effort. Excellent training and on the job training.
Y estrés post traumatico de regalo
They are SOOO Young!!! Feel So Sorry for them!!
6 July 1996, remember shipping out like it was yesterday New Orleans to ATL during the Olympics. Caught a bus to Fort Jackson arrived in the middle of the night retired 26 years later best decision I ever made! Saw the world and had tons of fun. You always look back at your crappist times as your fondest memories freezing your a@@ off in the field working long hours.
Ici en Normandie nous n'oublierons jamais le courage des forces armées Américaines, les alliés qui ont courageusement débarqués sur Omaha "La sanglante" (Bloody Omaha), Utah, Gold, Juno, Sword, le 6 Juin 1944.
Le "Big Red One" (1st Infantry), 101st Airborne parmi les plus connus en régiments et tout les autres, leurs âmes est toujours présentes sur notre nation:
Les courageux vétérans comme les vénérables soldats disparus au combat, nous ne vous oublierons jamais.
Gut ❤ danke 😂 good 🎉 thanks ❤ bien 😂 merci 🎉
We didn’t get any kind of military clothes, civilian cloth was the uniform of the day first week 87-07 retired . Big diff.
None of this seems like how it used to be. There was zero personal fitting for us outside of boots.
Fun Old memories. God bless our male and female soldiers Yes Sir 👍😎🇺🇲🪖
Humans always want to be part of something bigger, these young people will do well.
Things have changed a little bit since I went through basic at Fort Dix, N.J. in 1968, during the Vietnam War.
Like Day & Night
@@richbutler7828 Yes, Rich. Like day and night is correct.
@@felixmadison5736 Took Basic at Ft. Dix also July, 81 B-4-3 Also did a 6 mo. Tour Down in Honduras. Doing Border Patrols Not much of a good Time!
@@richbutler7828 I went from Fort Dix to Fort Sill, to Fort Irwin, to Fort Lewis, and then Vietnam in July of '69, right after the moon landing! LOL!! The deadliest year for American soldiers in Vietnam was 1968, with 15,000 KIA. 1969 was the second highest with 11,000. I was 20 years-old and believe me, 'Nam was not much of a good time either! 😂
@@felixmadison5736 Lost a Cousin at Pleiku in 69 with the 4th Div.
not that I'd be different, but these recruits looks sad, confused, worried.
That was any recruit on the first few days. I should know.
The best thing you can do is make a friend. Make that person your battle buddy! It’s a hell of a lot easier for two of you to go through basic training together than it is for you to do it by yourself
I went in in 67, there was a WAC detachment on Ft Rucker next to our company at the time, all of the gals who needed them were issued what us guys called birth control glasses, these glasses were so ugly that the ladies didn't have to worry about a guy hitting on them. I wonder if the military still issues these same glasses today?
God Bless your loving caring hearts.
why?
@@Xpens That's weird, I posted this on a saving Dogs channel, or at least I intended it for that channel, please disregard this comment.
It is so much different than the Marine Corps.
It is so much different than the Army - of the 1980's! Hope the Russians and Chinese are not watching this.
@@Spearhead-lz1oq I'm sure the Marine Corps has changed as well. I fear for our country.
That’s the first day at the reception station. Not first day of OSUT BCT/AIT.
Exactly! Big difference. When I joined 45 years ago, it was the first day. You got screamed at from day 1, while you also in processed. BCT was 8 weeks long back then. So maybe a good thing.
Things have changed since 1973. They actually try to see if stuff fits now? The boot people are better at their job than those at a real shoe store.
Wow! What a different Army these days. Used to be able to hear Drill Sergeants from 50 yards away getting off that bus and every moment afterwards!!!
And that boot fitting seems to be particular to where this base is since my grandson stood on the foot measuring device, was handed two pair of boots that didn't fit and blew out within a month, and told to move out.
Yelling will give them ptsd .. NO YELLING!
Recruits ( Navy- Marine Corps, Coast Guard) . Trainees ( Air Force and Space Force) . Privates ( Army) . It would help if the proper Department of Defense ( DOD) Terminology is used in order to not confuse the Civilians ,Who are obviously NOT in the Armed Services , know the difference, because , although We are All Family, We do NOT like to be called by Brother's or Sister's Name ( e.g. , a Marine is NOT a Soldier , etc. and et al. ) . Otherwise , a damn good Video featuring Day One of Female Privates at Army Basic Combat Training ( BCT).🇺🇸🇺🇲🦅📜🗽🪖🎖️💣💥🔥🇺🇲🇺🇲
the U.S. Army also calls people in basic training trainees
I went through Navy boot camp in June 1974 in hot Orlando, Florida and we got jumped on the second we got off the bus, nothing was easy, everyone yelled at you!
I got off that bus at PI in 1986 and said Lord I have descended into the gates of Hell with the Devil’s henchmen doing his bidding 😂😂Semper Fi
Thank you for your cervix.
The Air Force weight standards in 1982 were very strict. The weight standards were not as strict for women, but much stricter than what I see now. Maybe the Army is less strict. I heard they have a special basic for overweight recruits.
When I arrived to San Diego Recruit Training command (Navy) in May of 1970, we basically stood around doing nothing for 3 days until they had enough to start 3 full companies, about 350-400 men. There were no women in any branches then.
@@patobrien7009 women became eligible for permanent USMC IN 1948.
Things have CHANGED!!!
40 years ago this date, I was half way through Basic Combat Training at Ft. Knox. Ft. Knox was the USAATC (United States Army Armor Training Center) and there were NO female recruits! Women weren't allowed in a Combat Arms MOS at that time.
More importantly, I didn't see ANY screaming drill sergeants!!!😙😙😙
I just read your comment after watching this. I was in Ft. Knox too, around 1977. That base has changed. I google mapped it and nothing is the same. Often wonder what happened to my friends then. I still have my company group photo.... Those were some great 8 mile hikes....lol
They discontinued BCT at Fort Knox in 2011 and relocated the Armor School to Fort Benning that same year.
This was me in 1986, so 38 years ago at Fort Dix, NJ. Yes, there were TONS of female recruits...maybe not yet in combat roles but definitely female recruits.
@@proudasiangirl576 Yeah, I know that there were female recruits at that time - my future wife went through BCT at Dix around that time. She went on to Ft. Belvoir for 52D (Generator Mechanic). I also had a number of females in my company, when I went to my 64W school at Aberdeen Proving Grounds in 1985. My only point was that being a Combat Arms training center, there were no female recruits trained there, at that time.
A bit different to how it was in 1981. Co-ed basic at Ft. Dix.
Снабжение всегда было сильной стороной американской армии. Многие новобранцы имеют избыточный вес. Белых меньше чем цветных. Примерку обмундирования и записи в ведомостях выдачи осуществляют работники складов. Интересные особенности.
The empire has fallen.
А чего удивительного? Армия-удел бедняков. Плохая еда, вызывающая ожирение, до сих пор сохранившаяся расовая сегрегация. Плюс-необходимость в миллионах рекрутов для будущей третьей мировой мясорубки. Вот и гребут всех подряд. А снабжение? Ну, богатейшая страна мира и армия мира может себе позволить хорошо упаковывать мясо.
All the 8,9’s & 10’s go to the Airfarce 😂😂😂
Nahh bro, ur radar needs sum tuning!
I spotted like 4-5 solid 9s
Recruiters: Kudos to you. What a fine grof young women. God bless ladues
great job. nothing like oakland CA in the 1960s
Not get any no more is the hardest thing about it all until ya mentally broke knowing it's something ya want got to have, unless you choose it mentally
Is this relaxin jackson? I almost fell asleep watching. Fort Knox wasnt like walking around at the mall
That's not how it was in 1998 and 2004. Went to basic twice, once at Ft. Jackson S.C. and in 2004 in Ft. Leonardwood MO. Where's the shark attack, the yelling, the confusion??
Ese lente trabajo gracias saludos cordiales usted
I see a whole lot of overweight kids in that batch, unheard of when I went through in 1982.
Damn reception hasn’t changed a damn bit still that old building with no AC in it lol. Aaah good times
Best 💯❤😢
I DON'T KNOW WHY BUT I FEEL LIKE FEMALE TRAINEES IN THE ARMY HAVE IT THE EASIEST COMPARED TO MALES BRO THIS LOWKEY THE SMOOTHEST TRANSITION EVER !!! I WISH MY PROCESSING WENT THIS SMOOTH WTF ???!!
I noticed that recruiting weight standards don’t exist.
Who else gonna join this collection of cannon fodder? Complete losers only, rofl.
No standards anymore.
They make you lose that weight during training or your ass is on the bus back home.
A bunch of fat guys were drafted. They lost it.
Pretty much the same type of people handing out gear now as it was in the late 60s.
Thar's how they used to do it at Footlocker in Annapolis
Welcome to the family
I am a filipino i like to join in us army
ماشاء جيش محترف ادقاإن في العمل في كل شي
Hooah! Thank you for your service.👍
no, its thank you for your cervix.
beautiful brave girls hope joyful serve for the US army
To the KIDS out there..Want to BE Somebody ? Join Any Military Branch & get Respect ! ...Good Luck to the Boys & Girls of USA !
Where was the drill sergeant that was supposed to be on the bus yelling“Get off my bus!” These drill sergeants sound wimpy. No command presence.
This is reception they usually chill. It’s when they get moved to their regular training units they go through it
Might be kind of tactic, in a polish army first few days were relaxing and just then was started like in french foreign legion
Good luck everybody from india
7:18, The girl doesn't look too happy. She's like "I can't believe I signed up for this $hit". Cheer up girl!
Nice and fun program
🇺🇸🙏📖🕊️💪Thanks for your service.
Outstanding work
عمل منظم واداء محترم
You have to be mentally prepare and do all the hard physical exercises first before deciding to join the Armforce.
كلنا نعلم ماوظيفتهم في الجيش
If I get 100 likes I’ll join the USMC
Very good👌
The civilians seem pretty chill in this video don't let that fool you. CIF is the absolute worst. Goodluck!
@@Benl2476 I remember an Asian woman in reception, a civilian, who was built pretty good and had a nice rack. She was fitting me for shoes and boots. She was sitting on a milk crate and I could see down her shirt. She caught me and said “your girlfriend back home isn’t down there private…you won’t be seeing that kind of stuff for minimum 8 weeks”
Admire this
The ones in uniform passing out boots are about to be chaptered out of basic training
@ 9:44 a being from planet Zetox walked by
Hi❤❤❤
You guys have all of our respect and admiration! Thank you!

THIS IS NOT BASIC COMBAT TRAINING. THIS IS "RECEPTION". They haven't even met their Drill sergeants or live in the BCT barracks yet.
Yep..I was at Reception for a week to inprocess before leaving for BT. Any down time we had during Reception, we were told to take out our "Smart Books". A little thick green book that we would keep in our cargo pockets. We had to always read up (or pretended to) on it. Remember that? My time was 1986. When were you in?

Great material 💪💪💪

Muy bien el equipo de calzado.
Es importantisimo que una Institución militar esté siempre pendiente de sus jóvenes, para dirigirlo por él camino correcto en sus vidas, éstos jóvenes estarían muchos perdidos en la calle, con tantas bandas corruptas qué intentan captar los pará destrozar les sus vidas. La Armada Américana hace lo más correcto, preocuparse de su juventud. Dios bendiga a América. ❤️💪👍😊
ليش مافيه ترجمه للعربي انا من السعوديه اتابعكم اتمنى ترجمه
Hard to understand some of those people talking…….

Wow…how far recruit indoctrination and training has fallen since my Navy boot camp in 1970. It’s no wonder there is such a disciplinary problem now. No fear or respect. Recruits gazing around, shuffling, not paying attention to the DS. I hope the Marines haven’t slipped.
R those boots n clothing made in Cheena? I like datto cap fitting scene the best.
The caps make dem new recruits look very sharp n smart.
Thx 4 keeping our military strongest in der Weld.
All that you have made in China, dude.
China is the World's Factory.
The boot process! 👏 Black Boss 👏
This is what i want but im too old for this Im 24 🥺
They did not show the DI's helping carry their bags...lol
