- Cpl. Anthony Hamilton, a landing support specialist with III Marine Expeditionary Force explains the details of his job field and how his platoon supports Valiant Shield at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, September 14, 2016. VS16 is a biennial, U.S.-only, field training exercise with a focus on integration of joint training among U.S. forces. This training enables real-world proficiency in sustaining joint forces through detecting, locating, tracking and engaging units at sea, in the air, on land, and in cyberspace in response to a range of mission areas.

Working Party: The MOS
It's just a cover ... Space Shuttle Door Gunner is the real MOS.
I was told that they wore red patches bc grunts would try to claim they're landing support instead of going to combat.
yea, that's why we needed to be distinguished.
As an 0311, I was told the same thing.
Andy_in_NH Im an old Marine (1973-1977) why are Grunts today obessed with POGs? It takes 3 to 4 POGs to support Grunts. And without Grunts you would not need POGs. Just wondering....by the way I was a Grunt, if I had to do over again I'd been a POG. Fresh sheets on your rack, dry feet and fresh starched Utilities everyday.

I don't know Grunts today obsessed with POGs (your word). The only issue I've had with support personnel is when they didn't do their job or when they copped an attitude about who they had to support - the Grunts. Sometimes it is referred to as "Grunt envy". I was a Grunt for twenty years (0311, 0369, 0306). If I had to do it all over again I'd be a Grunt again. I didn't do it for the money. I did it for the experience of being around physically hard, mentally tough Marines who took pride in accomplishing their mission despite the challenges of terrain and weather.
Craigery MoBitches yes anyone who is not with the shore party must clear the beach.
I love the tradition and the story behind it. Thank you Marines.
Hands down the finest fighting force in the world. "No better friend, no worse enemy ".
0481: There's no party like a Shoreparty! 👍
When I was in the Marine Corps, the Red Patch Marines were in Beach & Port Companies. They were called something different before that. Semper Fi from an old Marine Sgt
I was a red patch for 6 years. Loved it! OORRAAHH!!!
2nd TSB Support Company, H.E. platoon, 2000-2002, just had a 20-year reunion to honor a fallen platoon mate. Great to see everyone after all that time.
0:50 the face you make when you know you're the definition of a POG
Everyone plays a part. Without them you'd have no bullets, beans, or bandages.
isn't everyone that's not a grunt the definition of a POG...
it's a joke chill
Everyone thinks they're Kyle Gott now
Funky Fresh why is todays Marines obsessed with this POG thing? Not everyone one can be in the Infantry. Grunts, how are you going to get your ammo, chow, supplies? Old GRUNT Sgt 0311 from the 70s.
As a 1345, 0481 is the most annoying god damn MOS in the Corps
I thought they were traditionally called “shore party” and not red patchers. Either way I suppose.
Traditionally they (we) were. I never heard the term "red patcher" until seeing this video. Be well. Roger- 2nd Shore Party Bn-2nd MarDiv-Camp Lejeune-1970.
Ah yes, the Embark Working Party
Oorah III MEF, making this retired SSGT proud. Trust me the guy's on the ground appreciate you. Semper Fi
Good to see a flight line red patcher that actually knows the history of the red patch.
Going on 54 on 230403, I AM glad to STILL see the Landing Support Battalion ( LSB) " Red Patchers" , MOS 0481, as I remember Them when I was both a Marine and a Soldier, from 1987 to 1998. Semper Fidelis and This We'll Defend!!🇺🇸🦅🌎⚓❤️
In the 1960's they were in the Shore Party Battalion.. Red Patches on the right side in back of their utilitiy trousers.
so wait these guys didnt have hiv?
Outstanding
They used to be called “shore party.”
Oorah Marines!!!
The mark of a true POG.
SEMPER FI‼️ 🍻
9 years in 4th LSB
It used to indicate Shore Party.
Yes Shore Party, after that Beach and Port Companies. I was in from 1973 to 1977, Semper Fi from an old Marine Sgt
What? That's it?
That was pretty good, but they didn't include anything about HST, or other things Red Patch do? What gives.
He was pretty much just asked what we're doing in valiant shield/ ADACG and what the red patches mean.
Ain't no party like shore party
3rd LSB 86-87. Often referred us the "Linen Survey Battalion" or "Lazy Sons of B-tches"
3rd LSB 85-87 H&S Co. Motor-T.
@@Chaplain161 H&S Co HE mechanic
@@ilasas Cool. We were there at the same time. I was in Motor-T. I still keep in touch with some of the HE operators and a couple of the Motor-T operators.
0:47 it really doesn't take all those marines to guide that equipment operator.
One person works, the others just stand around to look busy. U clearly not one of us if u dont know this 🤣
Naw.
In my platoon there was one guide, and if one was seen trying to be assistant ground guide .. the platoon would mock that person for it.
😁🤣
A good operator needs just the crew chief.
a long, long time ago... in a different world far, far away.... there was Shore Party mixed in with the "Heavy Junkers"... with the nickname of " 2nd Wavers'', given by the real trigger pullers, widowmakers and heart breakers. SEMPER FI DEVILDOGS... where ever you are !
that's pretty cool.. as a nasty grunt.
4th LSB Savannah, Georgia 3112
Anyone know if it's possible to rank up to lcpl with college hours and if so how many?

BEACH AND PORT OPS, PATCHES WERE TO DISTINGUISH SHORE PARTY
So like whats with the red patch though?
Originally it was red paint and later to the patch on the leg and one on the cover... First in last out
I'm 11 years old I hope to join the marine Corps when I'm older my brother served 4 years in the corps ooraug
It's oorah, bud :)
Riley, if you are 11 is your brother 22? What's he doing after four years as a Marine?
he's 25 and my mom's 47 and he's a sheriff now
Dont do it. Trust me
Where my fellow submarine door gunners at?!
0451......Rigger!, go to work!
졸려
0:17 first thought: Your hair is out of regulation! XD

Terminal haircut!
Beach port ops, HQCo, Love the Corps, rather look at the wms, dont hate, SemperFidelis

So a pog patch lmao

Riley ... now you have me confused. Is your Mom the Sheriff or is your brother the Sheriff? And where? What county?
Working party 😂
Pogs
Yes 100% correct. Ive read where it takes 3-4 POGS to keep the Infantry Marines going. No POGs No Grunts
It is so they dont get shot for running back towards the gear from the front. Also, AIDS.
