    It's hard to say cause absolute crazy stuff goes down during bootcamp. During my time we had one guy somehow(I still can't figure out how he got it through) had his watch after 3 or so days. That's a huge no-no as you were supposed to have all personal items stored when you first get there. Well fast forward to Black Friday( the day you meet you're actual drill instructors) they spot it instantly. Instead of taking it away they made him the time recruit....and they liked keeping him in the empty trash can in the front of the bay. They would pass by and kick the trash can and he would pop up, scream the time, and hunker back down. He would stay there basically anytime we were in the bay. Funnily enough, we were all jealous because he got out of so many IT sessions because they forgot about him lol.

    Being a former corpsman at the depot, I can say story one happens at least once or twice a year. I have seen and treated plenty of recruits on the challenge course and the repel tower. The ones that are afraid of heights were the most likely to freak out and not listen to the safety instructions.
    Also remember, there’s only one thief in the Marine Corps... everyone else is just trying to get their gear back.

    As crazy as the rest of the stories are, the one thing that gets me about story 3 is that I feel like if that actually happened the drill sergeant would have had a punishment for tactically acquiring a pack even if he told you to do it. I just can't imagine a drill sergeant awarding someone with candy and a drink for anything, unless it's a setup for further misery. That's the only unrealistic thing out of all of the stories.

  • @thejohnleos

    After getting cut from the Commandant’s Own that one time at Camp Pendleton, and then becoming a Drill Instructor, I would think that the weird incident in the whiskey locker with that DI just waiting is fake.
    As much as I would like to think that the female platoon incident would be fake, the recruit depots are stupid. And that logistical oversight could definitely happen.

    I was in the cavalry band (ceremonial stuff etc) so a majority of the recruits in the other cavalry platoons was female. They were also sorted by height so one of the platoons basically only had "modell height" horse girls. They had the barack across the army band during "boot camp" (same basic layout) so I only got to hear stories from those guys seeing some interesting things.
    Side note: I found out from socializing with some of those girls that they called the music platoon "The Pony Squad".

  • @ThePopeofPoland1
    @ThePopeofPoland1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    story 1 is 100% possible as someone fell of the ladder to heaven at MCRD SD right before I got there in 2013
    story 2 seems very fishy because there would only be 1 DI in the squad bay if the artist recruit was left behind and the rest would be with the platoon
    story 3 sounds like a typical 2nd phase DI screw around time.
    story 4 is the fake. you dont have access to your rifle 24/7 they are locked up so people dont steal a round from the range and off themselves.

  • @dougmcintosh9290
    @dougmcintosh9290 5 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    even though the closet story seems the weirdest, I think the story about using scopes to check out the female showers is not true. which I find troubling that a DS can order male recruits into a closet to 'Get Weird'. I always thought weapons/scopes were controlled only to the range, but maybe I'm mistaken

    1. Probably happens often.
    2. What happened to recruits working in the chow-hall ? Civilians working at PI chow halls now as well?
    3. DI’s loved to mess with other platoons.
    4. 2nd Bn is closest to 4th, or could have happened at the range.
    All are possible, but 3 sounds the most improbable.
    And be careful in that parking garage, it’s supposedly haunted.

  • @chrismccauley9770

    damn this one is tough, id say between 3 or 4, 3 because you had so many people on firewatch, which im not sure how it works in any other battalion than 3rd but we had only 3 people on firewatch. I would also say the only hole in the story for 4 was im not sure why they would move them next to your squadbay, but then again i was there at the same time as you and the range barracks were under construction.

  • @cevune-8652
    @cevune-8652 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    People saying 2 is fake but I had some weird ass moments with DIs too. One had me go IT myself in the head while the platoon was off doing some shit and had the guide come watch and the DI 'ordered' me to dunk my head into the toilets. Another one came by in the middle of fire watch caught me around a corner and said "come on (cevune), say something!" 'AYEAYE SIR!' "no no no, *say* something" 'Aye aye sir (at a normal volume)' "nonono say. *something*" 'something, sir' "yeeeeah that's right. say something" 'something sir' "awe yeah keep saying that" (which goes on for a few minutes before he just walks off into the night)
    So weird shit like story 2 sounds plausible. Also I was one of my platoon's artist recruits, so I know that part of the story is legit. Tip for anybody out there that's artistically talented going in: Artist recruit is the *biggest* hookup. It's in the last 2 weeks of Boot Camp anyway so you'll probably be good to go at that point, but it can get you out of some straight haze sessions. Plus early chow.
    Story 4 however. Maybe I'm showing my west-coast here, but there's no fucking way y'all got your weapons out of the armory, took RCOs off and did all that. Like not a sliver of a chance. I'm going to have to go with that being the fake story

    10 year USMC vet here...I'm gonna say 2 is the fake one. Getting to have fun during team week - questionable. DI being late to pick you up - questionable. Nobody stays back from chow (the recruit working on the artwork). If you were late to chow, you still would've gone to the chowhall...you'd just be late. Finally, all the dialogue with the DI - very questionable. However, number 4 seems pretty damn far fetched as well.
