My son went through this program Summer 2012 Then back 2013 as an Eagle. He is now in the Army serving his country. This is a great program! TY for making it possible!
I graduated from Devil Pups the summer of 1975. It changed my life for the better. Tonight while having a flashback with my 11 year old son, I launched into right face, left face, about face, marching, parade rest, at attention, cadence counting some 40 years later, and I never went into the military after high school. This is an excellent program. I highly recommend it even today.
I did Devil Pups in 1988 or so but I didn't see any girls. They shipped us around in boiling hot "cattle cars" with little outside air but we got to see stuff blow up and some Recon guys did a rappelling demo which was pretty slick. We watched an amphibious exercise and went about one of the ships; toured the well deck. After, we stopped by MCRD for lunch on the way back. Did some pretty nice runs.... and a big wrestling blowout on the beach at the end. The 35' water jump was pretty gnarly, saw a couple guys hit the water with their faces.... don't do that. I still remember... "From coast to coast we are the most, often duplicated but never imitated. Rough tough romping stomping, barbwire walking, raw steel sex appeal, Fourth Platoon, hoorah!" Corporal Stern was our platoon CO.
Robert Macias After that I decided not to join the Marines... I couldn't shit for the 10 days I was there... the day I left... no problem. Gotta listen to the gut. Hey wait...is that sarcasm dripping?
It was Sergeant Bennett and Corporal Amora for 5th Platoon for me. The 35' water drop was also another highlight for me. I've seen a few that did fall nearly flat on their stomachs as well as a few (who ironically wailed on me and thought they themselves were tough as nails) that chickened out of the jump.
Yes, Devil Pups graduate here as well.4th platoon Class of 1993! We were all male class there were no females. It was beyond a tough experience and it does make you think about joining the marines. We ran every where non stop they would literally ran every we went! In the class room when the colonel was speaking, you would be so tired when sitting you would be sleeping and didn't even notice cause the amount of exhaustion, the Drill Instructors knew this and would look for sleepers, once they found you, it would be push ups! They did this ti build discipline! When you were at your breaking point, you somehow found it in you to never give up! Thank you Sgt Matrick and Corpral Teal for teaching me that you must never give up! "Improvise, adapt and overcome!" "HOORAH!"
I was a Devil Pup back in 61and 62 when I was in high school. It was the best experience of my life back then and I thoroughly enjoyed the program. I would highly recommend it for young men and women who want to experience a program that will provide them focus on spirit, discipline and respect for my country. The Marine Corps shares their experiences in making Marines at camp Pendleton in San Diego and you can see the pride in the members of the Corp. Later on I faced being drafted because of the Vietnam War and I decided to enlist in the Marines. I am a Marine and very proud of it.
My buddy who was active duty in US Army and was a graduate of Devil Pups program, stated that Devil Pups program was harder than full army boot camp! As a graduate of the Devil Pups program myself I can agree with him. Devil Pups was to this day the hardest experience I had in my life. Ill never forget what it taught me to never give up! I barely graduated due to being overweight, however I learned one important lesson and that was to never give up! I graduated with the class of 1993! Thank you Corporal Teal, who was one of my Drill Instructors who gave me motivation to never quit! Semper Fi!
I was there in 1974, 2nd Platoon. Staff Sgt. Franklin and Platoon Sgt. Ramirez. All the push-ups and running, I was rock solid for my first day of high school two months later, because I kept it up for quite a while after coming home. A great program, nothing negative to say, and the chow was excellent.
I went to DEVIL PUPS 2 times. back in 1973 and 1974. I was in 8th grade, and only 13 years old. it was for 14 days BACK THEN, By the way I forgot to mentioned, I was a big trouble maker in school. But my experience in Devil Pups turned all that around. By the way, mount smoky was called MOUNT MOTHER FUCKER BACK THEN. I see they cleaned up the wording. Back then they were aloud to smack you push you. Pretty much beat you senseless. I'M proud to say at the time. Out of the hundreds of teen's that graduated. I came in the top 10 in the physical agility test. Of all the hundreds pups that were trying for the same goal. The harder the Sargent was on me, made me that much stronger. Stronger then the first day I arrived at Camp Pendleton. My goal was to come out of this with that certificate of achievement. And come out a better person then when I went in. If your wondering why I went twice. It's because my best friend SCOTTY dELREY wanted to go, and talked me into going again. I'M glad he did, because the first time I went. I didn't come in the top 10 pups. I wanted to be awarded so badly with being in the top 10 STRONGEST DEVIL PUPS PHYSICAL AGILITY TEST , and to get that certificate. THAT THEY ONLY GAVE TO THE TOP 10 YOUNG MEN and my first time I was not able to accomplish it. BUT THE SECOND TIME I DID. DAM I'M GLAD. I CAN SAY I EXPERIENCED DEVIL PUPS ! I ACCOMPLISHED MY GOAL. ILL LEAVE YOU WITH THIS. DEVIL PUPS IS NO JOKE. I DEAR YOU TO TAKE THE CHALLENGE, AND GO ! HELL IT'S ONLY 10 DAY'S NOW OUT OF YOUR LIFE. LIKE I SAID BEFORE IT WAS 14 WHEN I WENT. AND I CAN SAY TO THIS DAY MY LIFE IS BETTER FOR IT. IT'S AN EXPERIENCE YOU'LL NEVER FORGET!! HO RA !!
I was I’m the pups back in ‘92. At graduation I even had the honor of introducing Olympic Gold Medalist Craig Buck to the other guys in the class along with the active duty soldiers since he was there in the stands with my family. 12 years later I was off to jump school for the Army
Thats an awesome program, great job to all the young men and women. To the community leaders that support, and NCO's that train them "you have something to be proud of" SSG Grodi, Randy B.
Only 10 days. I was a Devil Pup 3 years in a row about 35 years ago at GTMO Bay and it lasted almost all summer. We did almost everything the Marines did. Pt, drill, go out in the field and have war games. Shot real M-16s. And learned how to take them apart, clean and name every part. Drove a tank. Name it. Some of the best times of my life. Will never foget. But those bandanas have got to go. Just sayin.
My dad got me into this program during two consecutive summers in July 1959 and August 1960. It helped me to excel when I was drafted just after college in 1966. The army singled me out at the induction center at Ft. Lewis, Washington and sent me on to Fort Dix, NJ for special basic and advanced individual training over 16 weeks after which I gained the rank of E5. From there I was sent on to Ft. Benning, GA for 6 months of Officer Candidate School at which time I was given a commission as an infantry second lieutenant. From there I was sent behind the Iron Curtain to Berlin, serving as platoon leader, company executive officer, acting company commander and battalion staff officer over a two year assignment. When discharged from active duty I was "invited" to do my reserved duty as a leadership instructor for the Sixth Army's command and staff college helping non commissioned officers learn to be good leaders and teachers. I attribute these experiences to my further success and "can do" attitude in my civilian business life despite the difficulties I had learning in high school coupled with low self esteem.
I plan on going to Devil pups when I'm 14 the only thing tho is I hope the uniforms are either garrison hats or dress blue hats because a cap isn't my style
Almost did this, also young marines, decided to go with the United States Naval Sea Cadet Corps. In all honesty it was the best choice of my life. But I've met some of these guys that did this program, they thought it was fun so respect. I just decided to go with USNSCC because it was year round with a mass of training oportunities besides their 14 day recruit training at your choice of a marine corps base, army base, or navy base. The servicemen of that branch are always there as training officers. Everyone has their choices, hoorah devil pups
Dont forget some of these kids also will Join the EMS Service which is also part of First Responders its not Just Fire and Police. Remember one of the most important person in your Units is " DOC".
I remember back in 2003 my boots were all stolen from my room by my SSGT to be lent to these pups. I didn’t even know at the time that the pups were even a thing. They had my boots for only one week and were returned to me in such bad shape I was forced to throw them away. This led me to have to spend over 300 dollars for 2 new sets of boots thst my SSGT would not pay for after stealing them from Me. Kudos to y’all for whatever SEAL ass training you must be doing out there on the daily though. Must be real hard chargers. All past transgressions aside, seems like a good program. To this day I’ve never seen them in person, but it seems like a pretty good deal. Just brin your own damn boots 😆
Aw man so unfair, Devil pup konikson (or Hawaii, i live there) 3rd platoon 1st increment, I wish i got to do paint ball and such that'd been awesome. Neither the less devil pups was great thanks devil pups official people
Yes, during drill. They teach you basic marching in preparation for review for graduation for the general. When on the parade ground you stand at parade rest for hours in the sweltering heat! They tell you to never lock your knees! I lot of guys did and were dropping like Flys!
Negative. I like the idea of not having a mandatory service. Bc if anyone does decide to sign up, then it truly shows they love their country. If they are forced, where's the freedom? Although there are a lot of snowflakes in America now, let's keep them out of the military. Keep it strong. That's why we say thank you for your service. Bc they didn't have to sign their life away but they did.
@@jbizzmore1878 I prefer programs like this than scared straight programs for some of our troubled teens. For some, they can be given a choice of juvie, a scared straight program or 10 ten days with the Pups.
Is there a weight limit? I am a 204 pound freshman who can do pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, and can run a 5:55 mile. I don't want to be rejected for my size though.
man i remember back when i went to devil pups about 4 years ago its i was in first platoon and i made honor platoon old smokey really was a hard one to climb and these guys got lucky we didnt get to sleep in bunks we had to sleep in a big tent
I attended their 1995-96 and do not remember seeing any girls in the devil pups what a change that is very awesome hopefully they can change the program where it can be for every school in California the because kids nowadays appreciate shit
@mr knocc down a flower chongo killa flower killa .... No they do not. There is a Room Or was Where they have a virtual reality rifles and you shoot into a screen. I do not know if they changed anything since then. It was a very good experience and I will do it again.
@mr knocc down a flower chongo killa flower killa ..... I would like for you to understand one thing If you're going to go to a military school go there to learn. Not to pick up a firearm the only gun you need are attached to your Body already you have your hands to use a pencil and write down what you have learned the biggest cannon is your brain do something because you love to do it not because you want to go in to hurt or harm anyone. Believe me it is easy to shoot a gun and hurt someone but it's a lot more difficult to get the memories out of your head. Don't be stupid and ignorant like all of the military members The number one reason they are there it's because it's a job that they signed up for nobody owes you or them shit. If you go voluntarily walk into the office and sign yourself up that is because it's your choice. And one thing I want always trying and pass on to everyone else just because you learned how to kill or have a license to kill it does not mean the can pursue through it. Think before you act think before you work good luck on your future and endeavors and don't let nobody put you down but do not join the military just because you want to hurt someone if that is a fact might as well go to the closest prison... With this said just focus on your education and to move forward and strive and make everything into a better economy fight for what's right.
Free, you had to be sponsored. I was by ROTC Major for this program. Ill never forget what he told me before I left. He said "Tommy, this is not ROTC and you are not guaranteed to make it and it might not be what you think it is.." The Major was right and I did endure one of the hardest experiences of my life, however I never quit and I did graduate!!
If my memory serves me correctly I was an original Devil Pup back in 1954
Damn, I'm sure you were. I went in 1982 then the real deal 1986
Proud to say I am a Devil Pup from the summer of 1959. One of the best experiences of my life.
Moment too. 1964
My son went through this program Summer 2012 Then back 2013 as an Eagle. He is now in the Army serving his country. This is a great program! TY for making it possible!
Devil Pup graduate of 2008, and filmed Devil pups 2009 and 2010 as an Eagle. AWESOME PROGRAM. Scared the hell outta me when I went.
2:35 he almost said recruits but remembered none of them are recruited in the military
I graduated from Devil Pups the summer of 1975. It changed my life for the better. Tonight while having a flashback with my 11 year old son, I launched into right face, left face, about face, marching, parade rest, at attention, cadence counting some 40 years later, and I never went into the military after high school. This is an excellent program. I highly recommend it even today.
Devil Pup graduate from 1980. Can remember it like it was last week and loved it! It definitely changes you for the better and highly recommend it.
Leaving Thursday! Am I nervous? Hell yeah! Am I scared? Hell no! Am I ready? HELL YEAH!!!

What Platoon were you in?
MrMakeyousaywtf1 1st Platoon what about you?

I still remember...
"From coast to coast we are the most, often duplicated but never imitated.
Rough tough romping stomping, barbwire walking, raw steel sex appeal,
Fourth Platoon, hoorah!"
Corporal Stern was our platoon CO.
Wow, Sky , you were a Devil Pup... Outstanding....
Robert Macias After that I decided not to join the Marines... I couldn't shit for the 10 days I was there... the day I left... no problem. Gotta listen to the gut.

Only 10 days. I was a Devil Pup 3 years in a row about 35 years ago at GTMO Bay and it lasted almost all summer. We did almost everything the Marines did. Pt, drill, go out in the field and have war games. Shot real M-16s. And learned how to take them apart, clean and name every part. Drove a tank. Name it. Some of the best times of my life. Will never foget. But those bandanas have got to go. Just sayin.
NCOs that failed sensitivity training. Say it ain't so! 😂😂😂😁

I was there August 1977 at 14 years old

Artie Miranda LMAO he was in my little brother's year
I remember back in 2003 my boots were all stolen from my room by my SSGT to be lent to these pups.
I didn’t even know at the time that the pups were even a thing. They had my boots for only one week and were returned to me in such bad shape I was forced to throw them away. This led me to have to spend over 300 dollars for 2 new sets of boots thst my SSGT would not pay for after stealing them from Me.
Kudos to y’all for whatever SEAL ass training you must be doing out there on the daily though. Must be real hard chargers.
All past transgressions aside, seems like a good program. To this day I’ve never seen them in person, but it seems like a pretty good deal. Just brin your own damn boots 😆
Did you got to CA Regimental Incampment in big bear in september?
Aw man so unfair, Devil pup konikson (or Hawaii, i live there) 3rd platoon 1st increment, I wish i got to do paint ball and such that'd been awesome. Neither the less devil pups was great thanks devil pups official people
Do you get inspected at devil pups?
Yes, during drill. They teach you basic marching in preparation for review for graduation for the general. When on the parade ground you stand at parade rest for hours in the sweltering heat! They tell you to never lock your knees! I lot of guys did and were dropping like Flys!
Military should be mandatory 2 years every 18 year old in our beloved country. The U.S. is headed down the toilet
Negative. I like the idea of not having a mandatory service. Bc if anyone does decide to sign up, then it truly shows they love their country. If they are forced, where's the freedom? Although there are a lot of snowflakes in America now, let's keep them out of the military. Keep it strong. That's why we say thank you for your service.

@@jbizzmore1878 I prefer programs like this than scared straight programs for some of our troubled teens. For some, they can be given a choice of juvie, a scared straight program or 10 ten days with the Pups.
Omg mee too tomorow
Ill be off from orange county
Marine corps weight standards are based on BMI. How tall are you?
This is Claproth from 5th platoon 2nd increment with morales this was the best ten days of my life
so what do the Marines have to do to get into the program
See y'all on the 18th!
Is there a weight limit? I am a 204 pound freshman who can do pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, and can run a 5:55 mile. I don't want to be rejected for my size though.
Is it only at Camp Pendleton and exclusive to CA residents?
Jason Babila yes only at Camp Pendleton, but check their website to see if your state qualifies!
Hawaii has Kaneohe MCAS and I was just wondering if kids from Hawaii are eligible to attend.
From what I understand I can't do this because I'm in Texas is that true?
No I think you can you have to find someone out there though
man i remember back when i went to devil pups about 4 years ago its i was in first platoon and i made honor platoon old smokey really was a hard one to climb and these guys got lucky we didnt get to sleep in bunks we had to sleep in a big tent
Devil Pups class of 1993! We slept in field as well by old smokey with ponchos!
I attended their 1995-96 and do not remember seeing any girls in the devil pups what a change that is very awesome hopefully they can change the program where it can be for every school in California the because kids nowadays appreciate shit
I'm a girl and I plan on actually going in either 2017 or 2018.
+AevumClipse ... if that is your wish then good many people plan on going because of your own reasons good luck and have fun
@mr knocc down a flower chongo killa flower killa .... No they do not. There is a Room Or was Where they have a virtual reality rifles and you shoot into a screen. I do not know if they changed anything since then. It was a very good experience and I will do it again.

Not to pick up a firearm the only gun you need are attached to your Body already you have your hands to use a pencil and write down what you have learned the biggest cannon is your brain do something because you love to do it not because you want to go in to hurt or harm anyone. Believe me it is easy to shoot a gun and hurt someone but it's a lot more difficult to get the memories out of your head. Don't be stupid and ignorant like all of the military members The number one reason they are there it's because it's a job that they signed up for nobody owes you or them shit. If you go voluntarily walk into the office and sign yourself up that is because it's your choice. And one thing I want always trying and pass on to everyone else just because you learned how to kill or have a license to kill it does not mean the can pursue through it. Think before you act think before you work good luck on your future and endeavors and don't let nobody put you down but do not join the military just because you want to hurt someone if that is a fact might as well go to the closest prison... With this said just focus on your education and to move forward and strive and make everything into a better economy fight for what's right.

Free, you had to be sponsored. I was by ROTC Major for this program. Ill never forget what he told me before I left. He said "Tommy, this is not ROTC and you are not guaranteed to make it and it might not be what you think it is.." The Major was right and I did endure one of the hardest experiences of my life, however I never quit and I did graduate!!
Public schools should adopt this kind of structure. Fix a lot of problems in society.
I wanna do this so so bad now hopefully next summer I can
