Fighting Soldiers from the sky Fearless men who jump and die Men who mean just what they say The brave men of the Green Beret Silver Wings upon their chest These are men America's best 100 men will test today But only 3 win the Green Beret Trained to live of nature's land Trained in combat hand to hand Men who fight by night and day Courage take from the Green Beret Silver Wings upon their chest These are men America's best 100 men will test today But only 3 win the Green Beret Back at home a young wife waits Her Green Beret has met his fate He has died for those oppressed Leaving her his last request Put Silver Wings on my son's chest Make him one of America's best He'll be a man he'll test one day Have him win the Green Beret
My wife’s cousin SSGT Dennis Thompson ,(Green Beret)spent 1,054 days as a pow in north Vietnam,most of the time in the “hole”he was one of the most disruptive prisoners according to fellow pows,read his bio,when he was released,went back to Vietnam to fight ,spent another 20 yrs in the service🇺🇸👍
In hindsight, I don't know why I hated this so much. Honestly, I'd love to go back for just a few days. Eat 3 square meals a day, work out, learn a little, SING SONGS! Geez, that's the life honestly. Looking back, I have nothing but fond memories of Ft Benning.
I nearly shed a tear, listening to the all this. I swear my basic/AIT was over 20yrs ago, but seeing this all the memories are as clear as though I just finished last month. I can't remember all my high school buddies, but I can remember some my DS, things they use to say and even how they look. All 20yr ago memories. Go Army, Hooahhh!
@@h3ct0rhill I dunno, my H.S track team would run lapse around the best soldier. When I joined, at a young 17/18, i was doing a 10min 2mi, most of the guys in basic platoon was doing 12 or 13min 2mi. Of course, I race my DS one PT morning, and smoked him 100m run, he caught up and said oh the race is not over 2more Miles for the entire platoon. What did I learn? 1. Dont challenge the DS. 2. It's not an individual sport, it's a group effort. Well, I never challenge him again. I still want top 5 even with the extra 2 mi. I was kinda hard headed.
It's been more than 45 years since I went through Basic Training and I can still remember the names of my drill sergeants; but I can't remember the names of my nieces and nephews. The only other thing that really sticks in my memory of Basic Training is all the marching (blisters) and policing (picking up trash) the parade ground.
Roger that D! Over 39 years ago for me ('81). BCT & AIT (OSUT) at Ft. Gordon GA. One of the last BCT classes to go through before Gordon went straight AIT!
Was never in the service but I made up a cadence to keep my 4 kids moving walking home from elementary school. It kept them moving and engaged. "Walking, walking, walking. Guess who's walking. (Name) is walking. (Name) is walking", and so on. Worked everytime 😁 Now they're grown
1990/91 2&54th Echo co. Fort Benning. Wow!!!!! Ty for this. Nostalgia so thick i,..... well it was great!! Hardcore Infantry all the way. Our Drill Sargents were like demi-gods to me. They were the bar that i have done my best to live up to my entire life since those days. God bless the Infantry!! Hail Infantry!!! Hail Victory!!!

Wow totally stumbled onto this video. I was B/787 1st PLT Spartans, this must've been one of our last days of OSUT last december. What a great experience this was, excellent cadre!
@@akeeeds4886 It was a common cadence that companies in 787 would do to fill time while mark timing mostly waiting for the rear of the formation to fill back in. 12345 Bravo company don't take no jive, 6789 10 back it up let's do it again with your left, right left, right, etc.
Im curious who this was because I was also 1st PLT this cycle lol I love that you can hear half of us at the end saying, “drop boom beat yo ass” instead of “beat your face” like we were supposed to lol
I still love this it's amazing though I hate to say that my folks at graduation showed up to the wrong graduation ceremony it was total shit the drill DS came in out barracks and told me may your folks attend someone else drill and cerimony. It was funny but humiliating my mother my genetic dad as well as my bro. 😭
2014-2017 glad to see the cadences havnt changed that much altho i remember we got to do yo ho columbo one time but im sure ds got chewed out for it lol
They made these Starship Barracks just for this reason lol to make it sound like the Private’s were sounding off. I was DCo 1-48th Inf back in 1996 and we rocked FLW or died at the hands of the DS. I’m just joking everyone you all still sound good marching around.

@@anthonyvicario8763 Back then, we were the "Charlie Cats" - I'm not sure how they do it now. All of the platoons were named after killer big cats, I was in the Sabertooths which I think was 4th Platoon? But I can't remember at this moment - might have been 2d PLT. Regardless, I think it was Panthers, Sabertooths, Cougars (rawr!), and some other platoon that wasn't used because that bay was used by the female soldiers, and they dispersed to their respective platoons as needed. I don't think they even have bays for sleeping anymore. I think when they moved to Fort Leonardwood they started the 2+2 barracks thing? I dunno... it's been awhile. LOL
Best decision for young people : stop waiting around, sitting on the street corner - no money, no place to go, no life. Join Team America, and take a stand. Stop wasting your life and Get Real. Service Earns Citizenship. UNITED AMERICA: JOIN OR DIE.
Hey, ain't that something? I was in 795th. Anyone reading happen to remember DS Garret? He'd sing a cadence I haven't heard since and can't find now, it goes "I load another magazine/in my trusty m16/'cause all I ever wanted to see/was bullet holes in bodies" .

It's a remarkable thing, watching people in the prime of their lives working as a unit.
Fighting Soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who jump and die
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Green Beret
Silver Wings upon their chest
These are men America's best
100 men will test today
But only 3 win the Green Beret
Trained to live of nature's land
Trained in combat hand to hand
Men who fight by night and day
Courage take from the Green Beret
Silver Wings upon their chest
These are men America's best
100 men will test today
But only 3 win the Green Beret
Back at home a young wife waits
Her Green Beret has met his fate
He has died for those oppressed
Leaving her his last request
Put Silver Wings on my son's chest
Make him one of America's best
He'll be a man he'll test one day
Have him win the Green Beret
@Esteban Garcia. Glad you like my friends song. Barry was my friend and fellow New Mexican.
Loved that song when I was a kid back in the 60's and early 70's.
Thanks for the lyrics. I’ve never heard this cadence but I love it and now will learn it to sing for my soldiers

Prior Marine here. Currently at Benning for 19D. It's honestly not bad and the songs/cadence is honestly far super to USMC
RIght! at the time I didn't know how good I had it.
I will never forget when I asked my DS "when are we gonna sing those marching songs?"
I nearly shed a tear, listening to the all this. I swear my basic/AIT was over 20yrs ago, but seeing this all the memories are as clear as though I just finished last month.
I can't remember all my high school buddies, but I can remember some my DS, things they use to say and even how they look. All 20yr ago memories.

Unofficially officially from a brother to another Mother! Absolutely loved - outstanding
Im glad these men are keepin us safe

Ballad of the green beret has to be the best cadence here
I miss this so much i just wish i finished my last 2 weeks at military school
Ayo that’s my drill sgt. Miss this for sure
Dammit man I remember this cadence I use to March to this all the time
I sincerely miss BCT. I was Fort Sill Charlie Company in November 2015
Those low ceilings and quad walls really echoed cadances.sounded like 10000 troops.
Love it
I was in Bravo Company, 787th when it was at Ft. McClellan, Alabama (1988). 4th (Smokin' 4th) platoon. Drill Sergeants Martinez and Edwards.
I was at McLellan, Alabama in 98’ one of the last cycles before they closed the base - 82nd Chemical Battalion - Alpha Company
the boys going to lunch in elementary school
That’s home for B787 2nd PLT 2010.....later was drill at D35th Eng lol
That is pretty good, adding the ballad of a Green Beret, Have you ever thought about doing In the army now by Status quo?
Bravo Bull Dogs 787 Mp Bn, graduated December 1st 2022. Already miss it..

Was at the 43rd in the 90’s and that seems easy
WTF! Battle....... YOU MARCH IN THE RAIN!
Man I remember this lol
