That black drill instructor is the coolest drill instructor the way he said āget backā and everybody got scared

Girls locker room: āI hate PE so muchā Boys locker room;

Did this almost 40 years ago. Bootcamp and my time as a grunt, assisted me all though my life and brought out strength, determination and courage that I otherwise would never have had. If every young man and woman in American went through the Marine Corps boot camp, this would be a much better country---Citizens with a backbone not a wishbone.

3:25 he said āall bubble blowing babies will be beaten senselessā š

I'll give the instructors this much for the USMC. Seriously, they have the most impeccable uniform standard I've seen. They are immaculate for ironing and precision of dress. Very impressive.

Some 23 yrs my senior drill told me something I have never forgot. The stress is not between me and you, it is between you and the task. If you are entering any branch of service and you are going to basic training remember this quote. This will serve you well.

My grandson is undergoing this as I write. He arrived at boot camp San Diego 4 days ago. We pray for him every day. Hopefully he can endure. We are very, very proud of him.

Even his voice is gone but he still pushes through like a Marine

Lmao the way the guy turned at 4:34 after the other guy was being yelled at was priceless
-
Damn, I don't think the Red Sea parted faster than those recruits at 3:26

Never thought I would say this, but I miss being a 3rd Hat. Those were some good days, kicking knowledge, causing chaos, but then seeing them transform from civilians into Marines. Very few things in life can compare to witnessing the transformation. What was even more endearing for me was knowing that I was a part of the process. #1stBn #8511 #PIDI

Our Marines deserve every single ounce of respect afforded to them. These DIs are amazing.
-
And people wonder why stolen valor is so disrespectful, because they didnāt deal with this
-
I hate the argument of which is better, army or marines. Let me tell u this, when the chit hits da fan in combat, u don't give a damn what branch the men next to u are from. You are just damn glad they are on ur side!

In boot camp, say the quote "Is that you John Wayne, is this me?" at your own risk.

it was 47 years ago when I stepped on those yellow footprints. We sat in Recruit Receiving for 2 days before our Series had be filled up. On the third day we meet out SDI and his Assistants. We pickup and threw down our sea bags for nearly 2 hours. By the end of the 2 hours I had no voice left. As long as the veins in your neck popped out has you tried to yell, they were satisfied. LMBO! PISC 3rd Recruit Battalion Company I Platoon 350. I honorably discharged Marine Corps Reserves after 12 and a half years as a Gunnery Sergeant. Great memories!
