I just graduated BCT in Ft.Sill, OK. (Field Artillery) We had some of the most brutal DS in the Army. We had one female DS who head butted 2 separate trainees with 10 day time span. She got disciplinary actions upon the 2nd incident! Some are absolutely Brutal! Although you have a few who are more on the gentle side. I had my locker tossed during week 3 and ended up with mismatched PT shoes, it’s safe to say I went through 2 full days worth of PT wearing a size 9 mixed with a size 13 PT shoe!
I personally know DS Moore on the thumbnail of this video. That's crazy!
These Marine DI vs Army drill Sgt videos gotta be made by Marines cause it’s always shedding a bad light on the Army Drill sgts. Ie the Marines always make these videos vs POG ARMY DRILL SGTS. I have never seen a Marine DI vs Army Infantry Drill Sgt at Fort Benning. A POG Army Drill Sgt at fort Jackson is night and day compared to a Army Infantry Drill Sgt at Fort Benning where most of the Drill Sgts are Ranger tabbed and out of their fucking minds. @jamesons travels. 11bravo Army infantry, 2002-2009 Afghan vet. Basic & Infantry School at Bravo 2/58, Fort Benning Georgia. Thank you for your service.
Thanks for serving man i do like your videos now im not in any branch of the military but in my opinion it is very interesting to see what the warriors who defend for us is born i respect every veteran who has been in the military and who are defending us and putting their lives on the line
Froggy fresh
When I was doing repelling in marine basic there was a recruit who had a Scottish accent and the DIs made him yell FREEEEEDOM!!!! as he went down
Jack Crater lmao!
LMAO
Of course they did.
LOL
Basic?
I was told to choke my self and sing Aii sir for 10 min while the di pretended he was darth Vader and moved me around the squad bay with the force choke, funniest day of my life.
That sounds amazing! That's totally a new one.
Aii sir and not Aye sir? SOMETHINGS FISHY AROUND HERE
@@DeionSC2 Right! I didn't even realize that's what he did I was just like, I'm way outta the loop now. I thought it was the name of a song I hadn't heard. lol
Lmao
I remember one recruit who continually would say he had to make an emergency head call and so the DI would make him run around the squad bay for five minutes sounding like an ambulance before he could take a leak.
It was hilariously funny.
Honestly tho, even when USMC drill instructors are hard core badass, they are still some of the funniest people. Had a friend with massive glasses lenses and the instructor would tell him to report the weather for the next day jus by looking in the air lol
HAHAHA!! YUP!! Funny AF..
I had glasses, those big ugly issue ones, for the first... idk... week of recruit training. I was referred to as "portholes" when I wasn't being referred to as "freak". I went to boot in the winter, and on one particularly grueling run, my portholes kept fogging up, so I trashed them as I ran by a GI can. Good times.
@@galactusholmes im surprised they let u do that seein as how they keep track pretty well. I went in summer and i was that idiot first week who forgot to put sunscreen on my ears and they got so burnt i hated life so much lol
@@minuslastlife6909 I was too but nothing was ever said. It might have to do with my last name. It’s Hollifield. I went to recruit training a couple weeks after the first Holyfield v Tyson fight, so they had a ready made torture name for me already when portholes not longer applied lol. I can’t tell you how many times I heard “get on my quarterdeck now, Holyfield! Gotta get you ready for that next whoopin’”.
Honestly, I don’t know why nothing was ever said, except that maybe with so many of us before we started dropping people that such a thing was the least of my DI’s concerns
@@galactusholmes "Roger the rapist glasses"
I loved boot camp. I never took anything personally and I knew all the crap was getting us ready to go to war. My recruiter told me I was the only Marie that came back asking to go through it again. The pride I had in myself was unbelievable.
i've never felt so good in my life as the day I came home on boot leave. i had girls cat calling me! unreal. i could run a million miles easy. absolutely shredded. went in 220, came out 170 ripped.
@@jamesblake5176 nice
i loved boot camp and ait both
You a real one then, I’m thankful for what I became, but I’ll be DAMNED if do that again, lol. One time on the yellow footprints was enough😂
funny you say that, I love basic to. I joined the Army in 1997 to 2000 then missed it and wanted to go to war so I joined again in 2008 .. people say im crazy and prior Army say I was stupid... lol I would do it again
A Marine not having a spaz out story by a DI, is like one of the twelve apostles not having a story about Jesus performing a miracle!
MrCharles26
That should rate comment of the day, by golly.
I agree my brother!!! D.I.'s are Semper to the Corps aren't they, So therefore they do their job well and that's their job!!!! LOL
My favorite DI story happened at MCRD Parris Island in 1967 where they train the women Marines. They were at the Mess Hall got their tray with food and were standing at attention at a table with a long wooden bench when a male DI came over and said, "When I Say SEAT, I Wanna Hear Pussies Smacking Pine!" .... Can you imagine the emotional trauma and years of Psychotherapy they would have to go through if they heard that today. .... LOL
@@cletusspucklerstablejeaniu1059, back when I was at PI in '83 and I guess they still are, a W.oman M.arine was called just that!!! They were called a W.M. sand your EXACTLY correct about that these days, man the trouble that would cause!!!! LOL
1999 usmc San Diego drill made a recruit stand in front of the mirror and repeat “I’m not funny! You’re funny!” While pointing at his reflection while we cleaned the head.
This one time I was light duty standing guard in the barracks. And my senior DI saw a seagal by the door and told me it was an officer and I had to salute him till he left. I was saluting that damn bird for at least 20 mi.
Lol the shit they come up with. Swear DIs are comedy gold.
😂
😂😂😂 too funny
Was he a Full Bird?
@@6sillygtivr 🤣🤣🤣
When I went through boot camp in 1961 I had strep throat throughout the second week at the rifle range at what was Camp Matthews. Camp Matthews base camp was a 6 man tent camp and was located at what is now the VA hospital at and UCSD at La Jolla in San Diego, California. The rifle range was at the bottom of the hill. After qualifications was over our senior D.I. ran us up and down that hill about 3 times. With me having strep throat and a fever I fell out of the run. The senior D.I. Had two guys carry me to sick bay where they kept me for 3 days. My senior D.I. Visited me and brought me some pogey bait, candy for non Marines. He talked to me like a son and told me he was proud of me because I had qualified on the rifle range while I had strep throat and a fever. He treated me with respect when I rejoined my platoon. That did wonders for my self esteem.
Most people don't know what pogey bate or C rats are.
@@thomasplumb9054 Or a P-38 😉
I absolutely loved rappelling and ziplining! Neither of which would have been possible without the training I received in the military! I was in basic training right after the end of Vietnam. All of my DIs were Vietnam vets, and took very seriously "Charlie in the wire"!! Every infraction harkened back to their experiences of carelessness by their comrades in Vietnam. Their compassion strengthen by comrade dying in their arms, their strength driven by not wanting the same fate for us!
yes, i went through that as well
I was told I’m a waste of oxygen so I carried around a potted plant and had to keep it alive
i dont remember any potted plants. but otherwise right.
You do know that's not a bragging point.
How is he bragging. You need to restart elementary school
@@doldemenshubarti8696 ... When someone tells you that you're the platoon turd you don''t go telling the world, " I’m a waste of oxygen so I carried around a potted plant and had to keep it alive." .... Well, in your case it may just be a bragging point in your life.
Cletus Spuckler, Stable Jeanius I’m not bragging that’s just what happened
- " Too big, too tall, too dumb?" I was too old. I joined during that brief window where they raised the max age to 42. I joined when I was 38. I didn't get too much heat from DS, but I had one who liked to rag on me for being 'old'. Stuff like: "Move to that table there, pick up your magazine.... Wait.... " DS walks up to where I am. "A magazine is like a little metal box with bullets in it, the whole thing goes right into your musket. I know it's a little bit different than what they taught you in the Civil War..."
LMAO
Awh 😭🤣
Awesome! He liked you, probably had a lot of respect for you and could appreciate you dedication to serve your country!
lmfao, that's great
And that's one thing about it, they pretty much leave you alone but they damn sure expect you to be leading those "kids". I say that but anyone who puts on a uniform damn sure isn't a kid anymore (even though they are) You get tons more responsibility, I'm sure they tried to steer you toward guide or squad leader. I wasn't even the oldest one in my platoon. I think one guy was 29. A few close to my age and I went in around the time the army was letting guys enlist up to 42. I bet those guys had a helluva time. I'm 40... Pretty much been there, done that by then for most of us. Except maybe the "Forty Year-old Virgin"... Hah
I was a wrestler in high school so i was in tremendous shape when i got to boot camp , I was seventeen at the time. The di's noticed this and physically challenged me every where anytime. They definatley took me to the next level of fitness.
This is me 🥶 I'm thinking about it...
So, thank God I was in a forming platoon before I started my USMC boot camp - I had this crazy uncontrollable urge to insert the word PLEASE into every response... Dang, that was tough to stop for some reason.... Then, there was Recruit Johansen. He was 6'8" tall. Drill Instructor Sgt Del Rio who was 5' 4" on his tip-toes. I was the recruit that had to always carry a 5 gallon bucket. On his beck and call, to place it in front of Drill Instructor Sgt Del Rio so he could stand on it so he could be taller than the recruit. Awesome stuff.
Great vid!
1 of my Drills called me “make a wish” the entire time I was in basic cause he thought I looked I was dying of leukemia, needless to say that name stuck
Lmao it be like that when it be like that
I got called "SUMO" in forming... "SHAMU" in 1st phase... "ORCA" in 2nd phase... "My last name" in 3rd phase and earned that shit! Got most improved recruit back in my day.
Dude 10/10
Yea I was called super twig by my Drill sgt. b/c I was tall and skinny but strong.
We had one of those, they called him Powder.
My drill sergeant used to make this recruit that was 6’5 get on his knees so he could properly scream in his face 😂
I'm 6'9 and had that happen 😂
This comment is so underrated
Yep, I (6'3") had a little 5'4" drill instructor make me kneel so he could look down on me when he was tearing me up for not pulling targets fast enough.
I’m 6’6” and that happened to me. My drills actually didn’t fuck with me that much, I assume because I was so much bigger than all of them
Haha. Just post this. I am 6/6 and my DI is 5/4.
My buddies called us Master/blaster from thunderdome
My dad was a Drill Instructor for the Marine Corps. He got the Brass Boots for 2 year's straight. He serviced 30 year's. God Rest his soul. He's been gone for 7 year's now. My dad was a very harsh man. I was born in Parris Island, South Carolina
The first time I repelled I was so freaking scared but I was even more scared of someone seeing I was scared so I just did it. 1/4 of the way down I realized it was a lot of fun. By the time I made it to the ground, I couldn't wait to do it again. Lol
After graduation one of my drill instructors told me that that he could see that I was scared but I didn't hesitate and he thought it was pretty cool.
I'll never forget one Drill in particular. His name was DS Miller. He was a 6ft 8in very muscular black man who would go from gently soft spoken to apocalyptic atomic level yelling in a microsecond. His voice was so deep and loud, that your ears would ring and you felt the concussion in your soul. I can still hear him 20+ years later. I really admired him.
Steve “why do I hear boss music?”
Those were my favorite Drill SGTs
Was his name DI SSgt. Young?
SSGT Smith was the same except he was actually a bit shorter than myself ...5'9 maybe. However, when he spoke, regardless of the tone, ya better friggin listen!
@William Terry
It's funny how your mind is like a movie projector for good and bad memories that replays events so vividly, even after 20+ years.
I had to scream at a mustard packet in the plank position for 20 minutes once... My DI was screaming that the mustard was louder than me the whole time.. ahh the memories
Lmao that’s hilarious 😆
The mustard packet had you beat the whole time.
I died laughing at this at 2am
Lmao
Funny! Reminds me of OCS when a classmate 'lost command of his company' and the Tac Officer gave it to a telephone pole. The candidate had to keep shouting "Pole, may I have command of the company?"
Army Drill here-one of the most rewarding and challenging times of my 24-year carrier.
6:15. Army guy here. I went through this. I was missing some gloves, lost a coat that I never saw again, 1 sock was gone and another had a mysterious hole in the heel, no idea how that got there, the socks were brand new.
My bunkmate had 2 different PT shoes for half of the cycle. 2 different sizes even.
The games DIs play with you are no fun at all in the moment, but thinking about them afterwards they're hilarious.
They all played their games. But it seemed like it was the plan. Weeding out the weaker mental recruits.
Oh most definitely, in the moment it drives you nuts, getting dressed 20 times in the morning, running back and fourth as the rover on the first shift for fire watch, sucked in the moment but funny as hell afterwards. Also it’s funny because I respect all of my DIs soooo much afterwards.
They made press two buttons on the water fountain screaming "EVIL ECHO EMPIRE" at the top of my lungs because I made a joke about the sky and they were snickering behind me lmao
On god lmfaoooooo
Definitely. I remember earlier this year I was getting ready for Family Day out at MCRD and I was Echo so I have the perfect view of the parade deck and I just look outside towards the parade deck and I see another company practicing final drill out there and a few of them getting it’d. It was definitely funny to me but if we had switched spots, I wouldn’t have felt the same. Lmao
My drill sergeant told me I looked like "Darth vader without his mask on" and he had me follow him around to all our chain of command saying "Luke i am your father"
Lmao that's great
Epic
This made me LOL! That’s great
You must be ugly
Oh man I just died laughing.
I have never shared this boot camp story, but, like many recruits going through MCRD, you face challenges. I was the heavy DI's favorite all through rifle training, from snap in to qual. I didn't quit and soon found myself facing the final week of inspections and such. In that era, your company was split in two, A side and B side. For inspections, A side went one day while B did something important, then the schedule would flip the next day. This day was A sides turn for final inspection and the Heavy invited me into the head. A little concerned I followed and he kept walking. Soon I find myself in the A side of the barrack with a platoon about to go out and line up. My Heavy tells the Senior of this A platoon, "that's him". He instantly started bending (smoking) the crap out of me. One of the junior DI's for the A platoon came in and took the platoon outside. The senior DI told to get on my feet and follow him into the DI hut. I shut the door as instructed and he turns at me, with death in eyes, and asks me to tie his tie.
My dad had taught me that when I was 8 and I could do it. And I did. This bought me almost 2 hours of fire watch in their squadbay and every little nuanced game the DI's played on those recruits. Including having a recruit who possessed an unfortunate surname that would require him to hide under a random set of racks with the platoon screaming "Raid kills bugs dead". i got bent again (there was no way that a Senior would allow a recruit from another platoon to leave his presence without a serious sweat) and went back to my squad bay. Got bent again and got on line. As far as boot camp games go, this was an awesome day.
Boot camp plus perspective does equal the laugh riot of your life.
Watching Marine training, makes me want to re-enlist...I went to Army boot , I had some solid NCOs.... but damn, DI's are the epitome of motivation!
OR, the epitome of psycho! It depends who you ask!! 😂😂
Two drill instructors: already destroying the guy
Other drill instructor: let me help with that 😌
Bruh when you get a female DI mixed in so no matter if you say Sir or Ma'am you're wrong 😂
Shark attack!!
Other drill instructor: *deep breath* ADSAREVG##$$ AHHHHAHHH
Well of course, you can’t not join in. It’s a hat thing.
Shark attack
My father who passed away a couple months ago was a retired marine drill instructor, and man he was very strict and loud just like these guys. But he was a very amazing man and role model. Shaped me at a very young age and miss him so much. He really was the greatest man I ever knew.
Big love to you
Great remembrance, Matthew.
I’m sorry for your loss
Gone but NEVER FORGOTTEN!
🙏🏾🙏🏾
I spent 3 years as a Navy Diver Instructor from 2001-2004, and going 0-200 became very easy, and all my students to this day thank me for being an A-hole in training!
Diver or Drill Instructor?
Former army here. Much respect to Marine basic training, as every Marine is a rifleman first. Army basic taught us how to be a soldier (NOT a rifleman, prepared to fight). It was SO basic...
the majority of our training was im ait, basic was just getting us used to the discipline and routine, mostly
Marines, just shut too much... useless.
@@jimsmith9819 - Exactly!! Regardless of branch, and whether you call it "basic training" or "boot camp," it all serves ONE purpose...to prepare you for military life AND get you prepared for further training!! I don't care which branch you join or how much you get yelled at!!
My DS was from ohio so he wrecked my life while I was in. Ended up being a close friend when I got out. Sadly he passed a few years ago.
RIP ✊🏿
Army DI's - Your dad yelling at you
Marine DI's - Psycho short tempered mother
Honestly a pretty good analogy 😂
That’s perfect because my dad is an army vet 😂
Army has drill Sargents marines have drill instructors. Just trying to help
What do you mean?
They have different names and a few different things
Something what I learned about the Army vs. the Marine Corps. All Marines get the same harsh treatment in bootcamp. In the Army it depends on the MOS. Infantry bootcamp in the Army is pretty much like Marine bootcamp. I am a Marine 2nd Bn. "F" company Parris Island. My son went into the Army infantry and attended infantry bootcamp at Ft. Bliss. They were all pretty squared away, the Drill Sargents.
I did 18 weeks of Army basic,it was rough but it made you tough,do exactly what they say when they say to do it and how they say to do it as fast as you possibly can Everytime and you won't have any problems,I love this video,it does bring back memories,I served from Sept,1999 to Jan 2003.front back goooo
I remember one recruit in my platoon that could not unlock his footlocker. The drill instructors were all over his ass. They tried to unlock it and could not open it either. Somehow he was given the wrong combination.
Probably on purpose so they could scream at someone 😂😂
Any Foot locker issues...be prepared to get ripped into yup!
Yes “somehow” lol
@TROLLIOSIS #1
I would set mine so it would just come open. There came a time when it backfired and they switched my lock. The drill instructors said the look of terror on my face was priceless
"Lock in your right hand! - foot locker in your left hand!", proceeds to kick items all over the squad bay.
"Sir?! DO I LOOK LIKE A DAMN OFFICER TO YOU?! D O N ' T L O O K A T M E" Cracks me up every time
I had a Marine tell me “don’t call me sir, I actually work”
@@getitlikemike3106 That seems to be a common saying throughout the branches when it comes to higher enlisted
@@getitlikemike3106 You actually call Marine Drill Instructors "sir" if you are a recruit in boot camp.. at least I had to when I was in boot camp.
I'M AN ENLISTED MAN! I WORK FOR A LIVING! ;-)
At Parris Island 1st and 3rd battalion were always "sir yes sir or sir aye sir. 2nd battalion was just "yes sir or aye sir" I think they did that just to add to the fuckery of the Fck Fk games. I was in 2nd battalion and made the mistake of saying "sir yes sir" and got lit up by the DI "do I look like a 1st battalion puke to you?!"
My father was a DI on PI in the mid to late 80’s. I can remember watching him spaz out on recruits. Remember him making a kid cry halfway up the stairway to heaven.
I’m currently 17, just finished going through meps and scored a 70 on my asvab. I leave for bootcamp July 25th to become a marine. I can’t wait to leave, I feel like this will be one of the best experiences of life. I think I’m gonna love it sounds a little crazy but it’s the truth.
Hah you will think otherwise once there
Which side? Parris island or San diego?
@@gabel.5269 Paris Island

Thinking and doing...or never doing
That's why your not in the service, even though your a piece of shit doesn't mean you can spread your stench.
@@icuabc1235
When someone who could easily kill you is screaming in your face, you don't say a fucking word and you don't even think about moving a muscle. Anyone who says they would do otherwise is out of touch with reality.
I think another point a lot of these people miss is that there's no winning. Maybe you've been training MMA, so you're damn good in a fist fight and you actually do beat up a drill sergeant, you're so fucked. You might be tough enough to beat 1 ds, you won't beat 5 of them, they will find you and when they do they're going to damn near beat you to death, then UCMJ is going to rape you. So, even if you are badass enough to take a swing on one, which you're probably not, you're still not going to do it because the future consequences are far worse than getting yelled at and smoked.
I joined the marines, my last name is Wacker. If you think I wasn't a target... you probably dont speak English.
Oh, you would have been their favorite. We had a guy who's last name was Herburger, he got special attention.
My last name is Kuhlman, I'm so gonna become a target
Not trying to steal your glory... but "private wacker" was eh... hard to beat. But just be coolman 😉 it's not easy but, you've got this. It's all mental.
@@craigmatthew5295 yeah u definitely got me beat, I might come back to this video in a few years and tell you what happened
Had a Spanish guy named conception. He had his own hand and arm signal he had to do everytime his name was calle
In my Marine Corps boot camp, I was accused by my Senior Drill Instructor of not giving up.
Actually went through AF basic in 88 and Army Basic in 93. AF was harder because of total lack of sleep. Army basic was all about PT, rucking, and shooting. In AF basic near, graduation our TI came in on a Sunday in civilian cloths , drunk with a drink in his hand and destroyed all our stuff and the whole flight dorm. He was truly pissed. When we graduated he said he was at a barbecue and got in a fight with his wife so he came in and took it out on us. It was interesting and would never happen today.
My DS had no eyes. He just had two dark spaces where his eyes should have been. Only hatred and anger existed there.
@Karl Schubert Unfortunately, that wasn't my experience. My DS hated us right up to graduation day. The last thing he said to us after we graduated was "Get the fuck out of here and don't ever come back"
man did he ever get the message thru.
@Karl Schubert To be honest, I'm exaggerating a bit. He was a total hard ass, and that was the last thing he said to us. But he didn't hate us, and he was amazing at his job.There were a few rare moments when he was cool with us.
Hahahahahaha!!!!! It did seem that way, didn’t it?
Why would they shorten your nap times and snack times?
I learned in basic, that an average Joe learns from his mistakes, but a wise joe learns from others mistakes
True That!
That’s why I never wanted to be the first one to do stuff.
That is why I always pay attention to the people going before me.
Truth
Wisdom is learned through experience, not by watching on the side
Army veteran here. I was at Benning for quite some time in Basic and Infantry training. Looking back, it might possibly have been the best thing at the right time in my life. This channel brings back memories. Army/Marine, Marine/Army, we're all brothers and that's why there is such a sibling rivalry. Great channel BTW. Keep up the great work.
@Mike Maxwell Thank you for your service
were you at fort benning?
Thank you, brother. Informative and entertaining.
One time i tried to be slick and take a nap between the bunks on the floor, I woke up to a pissed off drill SGT staring at me, he the pushed the top bunk off the bottom one onto right onto me. Had to get a few stitches on my head, I got smoked for needing to get to sick call then I got smoked again when I get back for being to soft and needing stitches 😂😂 good times
I got a few good stitches from a "training accident on my eyebrow"
We called it getting smoked, the DS called it corrective training😂
@@hawaiiansenpai8156 Yup
Man same here with a drill sergeant pushing my rifle into my cheek
They got my helmet bracket I mever seen it again amd had to pay for it
My last name is blount, (pronounced blunt), my Drill Sargents smoked a blunt as often as they could lol.
Best comment so far
Miles try that...
😂😂😂
oh my... you poor poor soul...
Top ten military jokes
Loved every bit of do as your instructed and they ain't nothing to worry about oorahh!
A young friend of ours just went in fresh out of high school (San Diego). I appreciate your videos and commentary. All I could think of to say to him before he left was that they were going to tear down the civilian and build a Marine in it's place. Thank you for your service sir.
My last name is Mayo, I swear to god my senior DI thought he was Louis Gossett Jr. from an officer and a gentleman. All I heard for the first 6 weeks was "Mayonnaise".
Did he stretch it out like the movie too?
@sijjiin NICE!
My drill sergeant was an E-7 Special Forces qualified demon who did not raise his voice. He made it clear that we were not worth a strain on his vocal chords... That meant hours upon hours of getting smoked by a quiet spoken senior NCO...in some way that seemed worse.
Hahahah Awesome..Bet he made good men
@Reyes R Tellez he had the Special Forces tab (over a Ranger tab) on his left shoulder. At some point in his career he was in a Special Forces unit and had passed all the training.
@Reyes R Tellez from what I understand and what I was taught, once a soldier is Special Forces qualified, they remain Special Forces qualified until he leaves the Army. Regardless of duty post. Kinda why they wear the tab through out their career. That was 87-91. Things may have changed since then. The term SPECIAL FORCES QUALIFIED is technically correct. If you want to argue semantics, please do so with someone else. Thank you.
@Reyes R Tellez why is it easier? Special Forces Qualified (whether he is in a SF unit or not) is only 3 words? If you dare tell a DI he is NOT SPECIAL FORCES QUALIFIED, after he went through the course, earned his tab, did his time, you're apt to get smoked and you would have earned it with no one to blame but yourself...
@Reyes R Tellez easy, by not telling my DI he's FORMER SPECIAL FORCES....I wonder how you made it through grade school...go banter with somebody else, moron.
Thanks for your service sir bless you and all the Marines
I went through MCRD San Diego in 1985.
Wow! Talk about an experience I'll never forget !
Craziest San Diego bootcamp moment was when a recruit got caught on night duty writing a letter to his girlfriend who so happen to also be at bootcamp in Parris Island. Instead of hazing our recruit the DI called the girlfriends DIs in parris Island and had her get "hazed" over the phone while we all listened from our racks. Crazy!
Damn that’s sorta fucked up
@@connorwalters3246 sounds perfect. Oorrah!
We had a recruit in my platoon, had a letter he'd written, returned to sender, no forwarding address. It was a letter he'd written to his parents.
Granted, that was kinda' sad. But I do recall the boy was a bit of a shitbird. Got the whole platoon pit called on more than one occasion. Nobody was sorry to see him go, when he was dropped and recycled.
Bahahahahaha that is freaking awesome! Pure genius! To have been those DI's at that moment.... priceless!!!!!!!!!
@@johnM-se5bt now that I read this, I can still hear their voices! And yea there was a very excited tone in their sinister voices. Lol. I just laid there in my rack staring up into the ceiling wondering if I was going to survive this madness. 😆
15yrs after basic I ran in to my DI at a motel while working security and he called me by name. How the hell could he still remember? Everytime we pushed, he pushed. Respect to SSG K. Walker
Drill instructors are Marines, SSGT would be that, SSG is Army... Which is it?
saw my old drill sergeant prior to iraq deployment. we had a good conversation and some laughs
I saw my Sgt as a bouncer at a club he was working at, screamed my name at me when I gave my ID to him, scared the shit out of me, my buds they still don't get why i dropped when he yelled 'PRESSSSSSSSS'
@@davidheller8540 Yeah that's funny. You would NEVER have a friendly chat with a DI in boot camp and I probably would try to avoid my DI after Boot Camp because I really thought he was crazy
I turned up on parade about 4 years in with no name tag and they knew my name anyway....
Everything that happened to me in Marine Boot Camp was in the video. I did get my left eyebrow laid open with a front sight assembly as a correction for port arms. We got slugged often. When I graduated, I was HARD! Physically, mentally and emotionally. Forty years later, I still don't intimidate easily.
Great reaction video, Semper Fi brother
One of my buddies told me a story about when he was in boot camp one of the DI's made these two Japanese guys who had the same name yell kamikaze at each other's face and the louder one didn't get IT
Hahahahahahah
Yeah, sadly they would be put on YT or some Bullsh*t now. I find those are the best stories. Isn't being offended part of the fun? Now everyone has a damn cell phone everywhere they go. I think they should be banned from basic and boot!
@@barbaravance6774 lmao phones are banned in basic and boot
@@barbaravance6774 You lock up all your personal shit the first day you get there, and you strip down butt naked in front of everyone and hop into your newly issued clothes. Not much opportunity to sneak a phone in, and if you got caught with one (which is easy to get caught with anything because they routinely throw your shit around), your life would be absolute hell from then on.
When I was doing Infantry training in the Australian Army, I smiled a lot. I smiled because I was loving every minute of it.
Had a training Cpl who detested the fact I was enjoying it so much and was determined to wipe the smile of my face.
Alas, he failed which only pissed him off even more.
Until the pass out parade was over and we had a couple of beers and laughed about it.
In the Marines, my smiling got me wore out all the time. It was so amusing the DI’s having a stroke over the stupidest things...
watched this video once before I left for PI not understanding any of the terms let alone anything going on in the video. now almost a year later this pops up in my recommended feed and I'm remembering all the good times from when I was going through the exact same stuff. Good times.
I remember first time my drill Sargent asked why I was crying. I corrected him, these are tears of joy for pain is weakness leaving my body. He snapped back where you pre trained for basic bye a marine. I proudly said my grandfather Gene The Marine made sure I get first time go. I so did too though I found out later from VA that I had over 15 waivers for juvenile injuries I didn't know I was ignoring.
Get rekt with that corny BS
Branches making fun of each other: 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Thank you for bringing back the good old memories. Ooorah!!
During boot camp at Ft. Sill OK in the mid 80's someone forgot to lock their foot locker during an inspection and one of the drill Sargeants heaved it out of the second story window. Stuff was strewn all over the side lawn. It wasn't good for our squad. Takes me back.☺☺☺
One of my DI's actually turned so red yelling at a recruit, he looked purple lol
My high school football coach was a former marine, and he did the same. He was a GREAT coach and person.
A fellow service member with a Gundam. My life is now complete.
I went to Parris Island Oct 1988. We were at BWT cycle and someone spoke to chow hall civilian employee. DI blew his top. Took entire platoon out behind chow hall and had us doing burpees, mountain climbers, high knees, basically PTing the shit out of us until almost everyone puked up their chow. No one could see what was happening because he had us BEHIND chow hall. Well played, DI Sgt Henderson !
May 1988, wow, what Battalion?
I went June of 88 3rd Battalion 3067
@Sidro C, I got there in late August 1988
July 1988 Platoon 1080
Frank Glowatz I was 1089
The drill instructors at the end doing the scuzz brush countdown was one of my drill instructors. He loved scuzz brush time I swear to God it was one of his favorite things.
I was typing in about leaning back when you said it, good times.
I hit basic at Ft. Wood, weighing in at around 240 and wearing size 44 waist, Got out weighing around 170 size 28!
You came out a lean mean machine.
I was the opposite lol Went to basic at 107 (minimum weight for me was 121) and a waist size of 28. Graduated boot at 148, waist of 30, and still managed to keep my abs and just looked so much healthier.
Fast foward to now. Lost my abs, still lean, just miss my abs. Should probably start working out again xD
lean mean killing machine! :)
@@TheDeathsAvenger
I don't remember sizes too much, but I went in weighing 145 and came out weighing 178.
I experienced the weight management program at Ft. Wood during the winter. I went from 215 to 185 and from 38 waist to size 30. Enjoyed twice daily smoke sessions.
When you snicker at someone getting yelled at by a di and they turn their focus on you.
YOU OWE ME (insert Recruits name here)!!! I can't tell you how many times i went to the quarter deck for this getting IT'ed for that!!! LMAO good memories

talk about a great way to clear the sinuses after getting caught blowing your nose outside the chow hall.
My Dad was a Gunny I lived that every day until I was 16 years old !! Semper Fi.
Im from the leather & kiwi era...
My son is in now, stationed at Fort Stewart. Even though Fort Leonard Wood was a co-ed basic training, I still believe he would have got more training or a better awareness of the Army through an all-male basic training No Holds Barred.
Looks like Basic & Boot has gone a little softer than before.
My favorite thing from boot was watching an entire company worth of drill instructors yelling at one recruit for pissing by the packs during field week. It was the single most terrifying thing i have ever seen
I'm eating my mre, and from right behind me i hear "OH SH*T, HIS D*CK'S OUT!", followed by a swarm of drill instructors
@@ITxWASxAxFISH111 Thank you for your service Were you at San Diego?
In the Navy they had some days set aside for anyone possibly interested in Joining the seals. I remember being yelled at in pushup position for what seemed like hours "you're not a seal your a whale" 😂😂.
I went to BCT at Fort Jackson in July of 1970. Back then, I think the Army DS and Marine DI's were about equally tough and so was the training, except for USMC rifle marksmanship. I think we both qualled out to 500 yards ... but the Marines seemed to be more serious about it. Also the Marines taught how to use the sling, the Army didn't. I had learned from my Father years before, so I had an advantage.
Back then we trained all day in fatigues (utilities USMC), combat boots and full gear with M-16. NO T shirts, gym shorts or sneakers. When the temp got to 100 degrees, we were allowed to roll up sleeves and unblouse our jackets and cuffs. Over 103 degrees was "black flag" ... cease training ... but very often they would take us into the piney woods and do "Flash Flood Drills" ... basically climbing up a nasty pine tree as high and as fast as you could go. I remember EVERY building had a salt pill dispenser near an exit door. We were encouraged to drink as much water as we could and take as many of the pills as possible.
We ran up and down Tank Hill AT LEAST twice a day ... through all that sand. Anybody who took basic at Jackson will remember Tank Hill ... if it still exists. If they went in July and August, they will remember all that sand, the pine trees and the HEAT.
We lived in old World War 2, two story wooden barracks ... no relief from the heat in them.
BTW ... in the Army, we had duffel bags ... USMC had sea bags.
BTW2 ... If anybody had cried in BCT back then, I think any one of the Drill Sergeants would have given HIM (!) a hysterectomy with his bare freakin' hands!
From the stories I've heard, I understand it could have been a LOT worse ... I could have been sent to Fort Polk.
50 years later and from what I've seen in vids, it looks a lot like the USAF. I think I could do today's BCT ... and I'm over 70. ;)
The ds on the rappel tower was my 1SG at my 1st unit. Guy was a huge ball buster. Good NCO
Had to scream at a wall one time “it’s not you, it’s me” tried not to laugh my ass off wondering why the hell am I screaming this random slew of words at a wall
There's a lot of history in those bricks.
Damn!🤣🤣
Had a Sgt. Make me look into a mirror and yell ."I'm not crazy, you are" for 5 min straight. Good times.
During a platoon scrub drill in the barracks, a recruit named Robert got heated. (a football player in highschool) We were passing side by side, knuckles draggin in to the concrete, brushes losing hair like pop watching Nascar. The muscle memory kicked in, and tackled the shit out of me in to one of the ancient wooden footlockers. (We one were the last platoons to train in old 3rd Battalion before the Parris Island building was decomissioned for a new one. Kilo 3049) Our three Gunny DI's seen this happen, and the drill came to a halt. Our Senior, Townsend, had plans for Bobby. I wasn't to broken up about it, but my back had a fucked gash from locker. He told me to stand at attention, and called Bobby over to dress the wound. "I don't know what drove you to jump your own man, but you are brothers, now dress that scratch." -Aye sir. I stood silent, and to make sure there was no bad blood in-between us, my DI instructed me to say these words: "It feels good, Bobby." bout 4 or 5 times before we got back to it. As awkward as it was, we became good friends.
I had my DI yell at me saying " just when I thought I heard the stupidest thing ever.. YOU KEEP TALKING!!"
I'm 6'7" and towered over all of my drills so it was always funny when they would try and yell at me. There was one however that made a "rule" for me that any time he moved his hand as if he was turning down a radio I would have to squat to make myself shorter. It became a game and he would yell out my name at random times and make the hand motion, and no matter where I was, I would have to do it. We'd be at the range, at chow, in the middle of mass formation. It was always hard to keep a straight face too.
Id have a hard time keeping a straight face too
I had a DI who was on the short side, so he would stand on your foot locker to get in your face, he was nooooo joke.
Just so you know... you made it easier for the other guys around you. You deflected attention from them and gave them some comedy relief from the pressure cooker. Thank you.
Sounds about right. 🤣🤣
Bet you had very strong thigh muscles by the end of it. 😄😆
Loved repelling! After learning on a 30ft tower, went to a 60 or 70ft cliff, no ground to land on, it was a floating dock, lol, did a 20ft drop, pushed off, dropped the rest of the way, didn't brake until 5ft from hitting the dock. I hit with so much force, I submerged the dock, lol
In the CG we had to remove all the Irish Pendants. There was always ones you missed, even with your shipmates checking each other so the Drill Instructors always could find one if they wanted to PT you.
As an Army vet, I had never heard of Irish Pendants. A somewhat similar version for me was “hangy downys.” It’s when you make your bunk, but then have to get under it to tuck in all bits of the sheets/blankets into the wire frame supporting the mattress so it’s all flush. Only saw that in AIT, but it tripled the time it took to make your bunk.
@@samsimmons1100 We're referring to different things here. Irish Pennants (I just realized I got the spelling wrong) are threads which are sticking out of the seams of the uniform.
A pennant is a long, thin flag which was flown off old sailing ships, that's probably why you never heard of it in the Army!
Lockers were found left unlocked maybe twice.
We called it Tornado Season.
Every once in a while one DI would rattle locks to see if it would pop open. Some guys would set their lock one tick from opening. He came out of the hut with a half dozen locks locked together in a chain. Sent platoon back inside to see which "girl" left her footlocker open. I didn't do that but sure enough my shit was on the floor in a heap under the foot locker Those who did were to report to DI hut. He threw the chain of locks on the ground and said you have two minutes to find your lock. Not exactly a good model of teamwork. No one succeeded. Assume the position for squat thrusts! Begin! He turns around and walked back into the hut. A long time later he walks back out. Screams out his impression of you and your fellow shitheads You are basically too exhausted to stand. Tells you to find your lock and get out of his sight. Lesson learned.
I remember that f@$king sucked but looking back I would do it again.
Someone left their door locker unlocked so we all got our shit dumped and headed to the parade deck with our empty foot lockers to perform the manual of arms with them. It was the only night it rained in San Diego during my basic. We’re all out there in the pouring rain in the middle of the night in our skivies and shower shoes trying to do “Right Shoulder......FOOT LOCKER!!!” and left and Present FOOT LOCKER!!!” etc... after we were beat to $hit we headed back to the squad bay and a “hurricane” struck the squad bay. DI’s flying around at light speed ripping blankets from racks and throwing them at us shit bags and screaming “WHERE’S MY WIND? HURRICANES HAVE WIND!!” So recruits are waving blankets everywhere, mind you we’re all soaked already. Recruits were slipping and busting their asses. One recruit was “Lightning Master” and just flipped lights on and off as fast as he could. Everyone else was responsible for the rain. I never knew there were so many damn buckets hidden throughout the squad bay before. They filled me up with water and soon we had a full on recruit made hurricane going. Then it was time for DI’s to run around with a trash can making race car noises as we all had to drop our locked pad locks into the can. Senior turned out the lights and said we had til reveille to find our locks and un-fuck his squad bay. Time on deck was 04:04.
My DI's loved wreaking squad bays, if your wall locker was not secured it was scattered everywhere and covered in shaving cream, foot powder, and anything else that made a mess. Sometimes the locker itself was knocked over.
Full of shaving cream ...they called it Blizzard In July
My dad was in the army in mexico. He told me the reason why he joined because 1 he didn't want to go to college and 2 because he wanted to know how it felt. He ended up fighting the cartel and and protecting his country and loved the army. And he has many stories and he knows some shit.
the stories are the best, but it’s rare as some people don’t like talking about wars

I went to BCT in 1996 at Fort Leonard Wood. We did not do any repelling at that time. After my Army service I became a volunteer firefighter and we do "Bail-Out" which is a form of repelling from 2-5 stories (20-50 ft).
Also remember being quarter decked specifically because the DI looked at me and realised they had not done so to me previously.
😂 same 😂😂
Yep. I made it until right before the longest hump besides the crucible during field phase before I was identified for the crime of "flying under the radar".
Did my repelling off the helicopter skid in Parris Island.
Kicked off the skid and forgot to release the break hand. Smashed my shins on the skid.
Drill Instructor went ballistic.
Good times.
Spazing out moments is all the time its the light switch. Emotions change in a second.
I went through Naval Aviation Officer Candidate School (AOCS) Pensacola 1974. The first to greet us were Marine DI's and they were the last ones who saluted us upon graduation and commissioning as an Ensign in the USN. Per tradition, we presented them with a silver dollar after returning our first salute and some of us even went on to receive our wings of gold.
Funny story though. We could check in on the day prior to commencing the 16 weeks of hell. One officer candidate had brought his golf clubs, immediately seeking our class DI to find out where he could properly store them, and if the DI could recommend some good golf courses. The restraint & composure displayed by this particular staff sergeant was epic considering that he was obviously bursting at the seams to tell this candidate where his golf bag should really be stowed.
I don't exactly know how this particular candidate officer fared later because we couldn't recognize each other the next day since our new haircuts made us unrecognizable; and out of our class of 78, I think only about 10-12 got our wings. But I'll never forget the look on the face of Staff Sergeant Tapley...almost like a scene out of Gunny Highway in "Heartbreak Ridge".
I was packing my stuff to head to Boot Camp in 1981 and my Mom said "Do you want to bring a towel?" and I said yes, and she packed one for me. It wasn't until we emptied all of our stuff on our bunks that I found out that my Mom had packed a beach towel from "Martha's Vineyard". So much for keeping a low profile.
What happened ?
Speaking of crazy DI moments, I remember when my kill hat was spazzing out on a kid and he started crying. Then without missing a Beat the drill instructor leaned in and licked a single tear off his cheek. We all were in instant shock
I thought recruits were too gross and disgusting to even get close to a DI 😂
We had one that rolled up between two of us, popped his head in and whispered at the chow hall right when we started eating our bananas " You like those bananas? Jones likes bananas too" right after he claimed to be gay even though his girlfriend wrote him and the evening before we all had to sit on the quarterdeck while he had to call his parents and break the news.
I choked on that banana. I was not told to choke on that banana and I caused a scene in the chow hall because I could not keep my bearing so I had a small debt to pay.
I can't remember the last time I ate a banana.
Did he say something along the lines of “your misery tastes good.”

I went through that experience, passed, and became a naval rifleman. But it is a great experience that I would surely repeat.
boot camp? For this video. Brought back great memories. Watch my ret. Sgt.Maj. dad as a D.I. in 67-68 and my D.I.'s in 79 were nuts. Love it! Ooorah.
Being a Marine myself, seeing what these drill instructors do, just brings back so many memories that believe it or not I actually miss. They aren't always like this though, there will be "guided discussions" where they also teach you things about life that schools tend to miss.
honestly same for the army, its those times you that make you open your eyes
When I joined the Marine Corps in 1966, the recruiting posters were "The Marine Corps Builds Men:" !
Little did I know that in order to do that, they take you apart, and start from scratch !

I got in trouble for singing "Hotel California" in mcrd SD. Good times!!
My first time rappelling I was scared crapless. After the first time doing it, they could not keep me from running back up the tower to do it again.
I went to basic training in 1991, there was several times we came back to the bay and found stuff everywhere, mattresses in the stairwell and even down on the quad.
String on uniform is grabbed by Drill Sergeant, “what is this! That looks like a lanyard! Are you a dud? If I pull your lanyard will you go off? Yes Drill Sergeant?” (STRING IS PULLED!) “Boom Sir!”
Lol, it sounds like fun. I think I will be the biggest military personnel ever with all the torture I'll receive. I don't think I'd stop laughing.
Rescue Rabbit man, if anything funny happened, I’d get smoked every single time for laughing. Oh it would be utter hell, but I’d be fit afterwards.
For me it was "you going rappelling soldier?"
@@CandC68 or maybe. Are you a parachute? If I pull this Lanyard will you help me from splattering across the floor?
Our drill instructors had some damn creative minds I swear. I was told to sweep the sunshine off the deck outside and not to come back until it was done 🤦♂️ and also there was this huge Japanese kid we had in our platoon that thru all of bootcamp, we would all do the normal warcry but he had to yell BANZAI!!! 😆
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Some of the barracks at Ft. Jackson, where called starships. That's what they look like in your video back when I was there. The DS in this video seem very tame to the ones I had. They loved to drop us or make the platoon pay for something one person did. Even though I was Army my AIT was on a Navy base. I had all branches as Instructors.
