Graduated Echo-197. We did ours on a ridiculous day. It was 40 degrees with 15 mph winds. I was guidon and had to hold that with two hands because the wind was that strong. We nailed our MOA!
CAPE MAY GRADUATE. 1983. ROMEO 114. ALMOST 30 YEARS LATER AND THINGS HAVE NOT CHANGED AT ALL. I BET YORKTOWN STILL LOOKS THE SAME TOO..... GREAT WATCHING THIS VIDEO. BRINGS BACK MEMORIES....
I was surprised that Chief Howe (?) did not offer correction to the recruit in the front rank who was standing at attention chicken winging his left arm instead of having it straight down his side.
I went through the tracen in January of 2008. Company Charlie-179 last company of master chief dykema and I see it's all the same, minus the snow. Great job guys.
This company, Romeo 185, did an outstanding job. However, I think the video is a bit misleading. I went to Cape May boot camp in 1974 when the basic training was 13 weeks long and the Coast Guard had a competition with the Marine Corps to have the toughest boot camp. I NEVER saw ANY Chief or Company Commander ever be this nice and complimentary to ANY group of recruits. Don't kid yourselves. Unless things have changed dramatically in the USCG they are going to be on your ass and kicking your ass every second you are at Cape May. "Not cleaning your squad bay and acting crazy." Really? If you were a slob or acted crazy when I was there you'd be on your way to a living hell in the dreaded Red Belts so fast your head would spin. I once saw a guy in Red Belts who had a badly swollen leg who was forced to keep running with his full sea bag until his leg broke as he was running up the steps to enter the mess hall and his Company Commander went over and poured himself a cup of coffee as the recruit lay on the floor of the chow hall screaming in pain. The Company Commander then told the staff in the chow hall NOT to call the ambulance because the recruit wasn't going anywhere until the Company Commander finished his coffee, which he did sit down and drink while the kid lay on the floor screaming with a broken leg. Come prepared for the toughest eight weeks of your life at Cape May. They run a tight ship and they don't tolerate any bullshit. And YES, it will be worth it in the long run. A few weeks of pain for a lifetime of pride and honor. Semper Paratus.
1notgilty this is like week seven . I remember in 2010 when my company did this. there not as hard on the company at this point. doesn't mean you slack off obv. this is to earn your off base liberty.
1notgilty bootcamp is getting softer in all branches of service. you can definitely tell by the quality of some of the recruits that have been coming out. it's the new sensitive military. not sure if I agree with it. coming out of boot I was respectful and obedient and worked hard. that's hard to find now and when you do find them it's the gem in a pile of shit when it used to be a piece of shit in a pile of gems.
its not like that at any point in training. ultimately they're there to get you through it and into the fleet not permanently disable you. you're gonna get lit the fuck up the first 6 weeks no matter if you're doing well or not they'll find a reason to break you down. this is later in training when they stop talking as much shit and start telling you how far you've come and all that corny shit. it was nice to hear but I only had my mind on graduating and getting the fuck out at that point.
+Scott Haddix You should see the trophy decks in the Oscar barracks, all the 1st. place awards from boot camp drill teams beating up on the full time boys of the other branches...Oscar/Charlie 98 Alameda 1974

I am not trying to be a overly strict critic, but I am just wondering if they are just like an normal company that do not focus that much on drills? Because there were many flaws, like the angle of the rifles were not the same at all.
V106, BM 1 Baily
"The Taz" things have changed abit
look at all those seamen
Lookin' good! All military branches are equally important, none is "better" than the other. All start with "U.S."

Y'all had easy after the M1's 😂
Much respect to the COASTIES. I was a Sailor.
ROMEO 185, WE ROCKED THIS. 10 OUT OF 10.

Same 1986.. Kilo 124. Wild nothing has changed much..

Recruit Company Delta 95 November - December 1975. Still the same except our uniforms were different and we carried M16's. Good stuff. :)

Shout out to Uniform-185 marching in the back lol🤙🏽

Cape May 1976 wasn't quite like this, either.

"Unless things have changed dramatically..." Well, I saw a fat girl in this video. So yeah, things have changed.
A section commander that says "good answer"... This is crazy!
YNC Howe kept it real.
A facing movement at port arms????? "Smacks face"
Impressive Coasties

Much respect to them

Drill is one of the aspects but you’re mainly taught other stuff as well. It’s one focus but not entirely the main focus
O7, well done...period.
The By The Ripple commands are hot sex.
I want to join the cost gaurd and I'm afraid that I'm going to mess up during these formations. Anyone have advice?
everybody messes up it is part of the process! just keep your head up and remain focused!
they do a good job at training you before this happens
I joined at 33, oldest guy in the company and the entire regiment. If I did it, so can you!
I’ve heard staying motivated is the best thing to possibly do. I’m joining soon and I’m scared too but I’m motivated to get through.
Why the fuck didn't we have this in the Navy? 10 Aug 99 DIV 401, I sure would have liked to have learned this.
Amazing job!! i cant wait to ship out!
Something no other branch does with their riffles
Marines dont do that
This is something that promotes team work and that is why they do it.
@@mkcoastie2197 it teaches discipline too
marines do this wdym
BS. Navy does that.
I was Tango 111, we probably new some of the same peeps, lol
I was in tango 111 also. Cc Stole. We were shipmates.
this sounds so cool wonder if my brother did this
Anyone know Anthony Facompre?
Karen-Emanon Entertainment yep, he was one bunk bed next to mine. Good guy
Thank you for responding. I couldn't be more proud of my Son & I can't thank you all enough for your service to our Country.
Yes he was my recruit!!!!
But why not learn manual arms with M16s like everyone else (every other branch)?????
+Cameron Brooks We do, now. For a very long time the USCG Training Center maintained the use of M1s for traditions sake.
@@derekmorris9533 We were using M-16s in 1976.
We did them with lead filled M1s in 1985.
this you griffin?
LOL What a sloppy bunch. Watch those heads move to the side when shouldering arms.
Dude, there was a fat girl in there. How much discipline do you think they actually instill?
Tell the wind bag to lock it up next time.. blaaah blaaah blaaah blaaah
They are not even in straight lines!!! LOL!
Lol butt plate
😴😴😴😴😴
