Focus on getting to breakfast, then focus on getting to lunch, then focus on getting to dinner. Then focus on getting to bed. It'll go quick.
This made me laugh a good bit. I graduated early this month, that’s exactly what you need to do!
Honestly dude. at night thinking about the cheerios with granola in it made me get out of my rack. A few weeks will be a year since I left
Is it Hubbard or Humptard... ? Either way a tard joined to take orders... I love working for uncle sam lets me know just who I am.. 1 2 3 4 marine core... if we were at war.. you might actually get some respect. till then scrub my toilet with your tooth brush...
@@yungnemesis1848 bro it was the crushed granola bars in milk for me. Also we had pizza on our last night, they played music, it was awesome

Bootcamp was the funniest place that I wasn’t allowed to laugh.
Were you a recruite?
So true dude. I’ve never laughed harder than in boot camp and I’ve never been more afraid to laugh that hard
Deadass
That's one thing I'm nervous about. I laugh at everything but that's something I know imma have to stop. I hope I pass everything.
@@lilmike757 me too. I like to smile so im a bit worried about it as well
Our son shipped out last Thursday. Respect to all recruits and instructors.
he back yet??
@@somemong8349 Most likely yes, unless they got ASMO'd
Good for him! In Royal Houses, serving in The Military for Princes is a must. In future years, both Prince George & Prince Louis will do time in the Military. They may go to Sandhurst that all of the Sons of King Hussein (RIP), went to as well as his daughter Riyah. 😊
Everyone becomes a bitch to one person. Money problems
Is it worth it?
Shit gives me the shivers.... this was me two years ago. If anyone is shipping out to boot camp any time soon, trust me, its ALL worth it.
December 14th looking forward to it!🙌🏽
I leave in 2 days, going into the Seabees. Can't fuckin wait

I served 8 years in the Navy, and half of them was spent as a FMF Corpsman with the Marines. I would encourage anyone thinking of joining to jump head first in and go for it. The benefits when you get out are amazing, and you will be part of a brotherhood for life.
What benefits if you don’t mind me asking ?😊
Thank you so much for your service! I decided at 12 that I wanted to be in the navy just like my BFF's dad. I'm 15 now, but I still have 3 years until I enlist. Seeing this documentary gives me immense joy and determination to do my best to prepare for it!
People respect the fact that you served, that's the benefit@@senko147
@@senko147the legendary va loan is one of the few things you are entitled to. Depending on the price of the house and a few other factors, you might be able to buy a house with low interest, and zero down. Depending on your rate, you can get certain qualifications that are desirable by companies in the civilian world. Top those qualifications on your time (experience) doing that particular job, and you'll find a well paying job after you get out easily. Only about half of your income is taxable. The money you get from basic housing allowance, food allowancd, and other auxiliary pays (depending on your job; i.e. sea pay, hazardous pay, etc) are non-taxable. Depending on the state, they may not even tax your taxable income portion as well. So on paper, you perhaps won't make as much as you'd like, but if you play your cards right, in practice, you should be able to make decent money.
Become an officer and make 10 times the money of an enlisted and be treated like royalty. But stupid people won’t listen to wisdom and experience.
Honestly, seeing how determined and genuine that Luis is, is super motivating. Like he wants to better himself and make his family proud of him. How he’s turned his life around is amazing. Id love to know where he is and Rachel are at now. I’m sure they’re doing great things.
I second that!!
I’m all stressed out just watching this in the comfort of my home lmao

how many shots do you have to get, i’m joining next august but im scared of needles😂😂
Really not a needle u wont feel nothing @@flowerskarma7884
I'm nervous about the fitness part 🥲🤧
That’s sick I’m definitely very excited for boot camp! I will be going out in feb
@@DrummerBoy. just look at the PRT standards and train above the standard. It’s not too difficult if you regularly exercise
I went through boot camp years ago.
Confidence, respect and a willingness to work yourself to the bone to accomplish the task will carry you through.
I failed the swim call but I kept trying, I begged them to jump. It was embarrassing but I was surprised to see that they were impressed because I kept trying.
A few weeks later I qualified. Don't underestimate other people's ability to help you and push you if you don't give up on yourself.
So, you just flouted on your back for a few seconds right?
@@TheTruthcometh 🤣🤣🤣I'm dying 😂😂😂
@@TheTruthcometh No, we had to jump and then swim down the length of the pool and come back.
I qualled tho, after failing for days and days on end.

I really enjoyed this video. This boot camp video took me down memory lane. I was a recruit at Great Lakes Training Command during the summer of 1992. The entire program has changed. When I was training there only males being trained at Great Lakes. The female recruits were trained in Orlando, Florida.
This cracked me up 😁
Best tip I could give to anyone who is about to ship out: Focus on the three meals per day and count the Sundays you have remaining instead of weeks or individual days, it’ll go by quickly.
I tried Navy boot camp, but didn't make it through for medical reasons. Those who graduated, congratulations and I salute you. 💪🙏♥️ Division 337!!

Yep me last night
I'd feel so bad omg lol
TR3V0R_1001 that’s exactly what I was thinking lol
Bahahahha
When I joined the US Army in 1967, the drill sergeants didn't give a rat's ass about us calling home to say we arrived safely to basic training. Come to think of it, they didn't give a rat's ass about anything . . . period.
1977 to 1981. I loved the video, brought back some memories even from my time in, oh so long ago:
1) Home sickness was the biggest enemy for most (me included)... it was the leverage they used everyday.. as you progress further you gain confidence and they begin to lose their leverage.
2) Don't let the Navy get you in shape and by all means, don't let the Navy teach you to swim!!!
3) It will be an experience your friends from high school who didn't serve will miss and you will remember and cherish for the rest of your life.
4) in my 4 short years, I witnessed Boot camp, "A -School", my first ship, a shipyard overhaul, Guantanamo Bay, a Med Cruise, a second ship, hometown recruiting duty, 6 months of Shore Patrol and 18 months on a submarine base Scotland and along the way I visited a dozen different countries.
5) So who comes out better prepared for life? Some kid with with a worthless degree and a massive student loan or a veteran of military service who was a part of something bigger than themselves, trained to adapt, to work as a team and the meaning of respect and honor?
6) I retired as a plant manager, debt free @ 55 ahead of all my friends. (life skills learned)
I will gladly take the assistance they will give me to learn to swim and get in shape. Tired of how I lived my life and I'm ready to be shaped in to what the Navy needs.
@@thefurrygamer1489 Well good luck to you, the Navy sure needs you!
17:12, 17:16, and 17:27
The differences in attitudes foretell who is in it to win it and who’s in it to coast.
The twins were just like “whatever”. The other two had determination and a goal. THAT made all the difference between getting through and falling behind.
Call someone that can confirm your existence 💀 lol 😂

That doesn’t sound that out the ordinary then again I just graduated Air Force bmt
Youknowwho y’all air force have it lucky i’ve been in the navy for a year. and in boot camp if we looked at our petty officers we would get yelled at. if y’all don’t look at your sergeants and stuff you get in trouble

@@User-hy6ur What a bunvh of Zs
I spent 14 years in the Army. In that 14 years I worked with the Marines, Air Force and the Navy. We all have different basic trainings/boot camps, but the philosophy behind them are all the same: break you down, build you up, and work as a team. Fun stuff. The hardest school I went to was Air Assault school: 11 days of hell. ❤❤❤
I’ve been in the navy for now a year and a half went through bootcamp last July. Some advice for ppl going to recruitment centers and now looking up navy bootcamp. It’s hard and requires sacrifice every step of the way, be ready to be out under stress and to perform under pressure. The hardest part of bootcamp is being mentally open to having no limit. Never give yourself a limit, not in bootcamp not in the fleet and even if you fail out don’t give yourself a limit. Always rise to the occasion.
Lol I remember my son on his first call home, "Mom they lied to me!". He has 17 years in the Navy now and he is an instructor.
Boot camp instructors are usually sailors who failed to do their dedicated Navy jobs properly and got demoted to instructor job. You have to hate people to like that job. See the movie Full Metal Jacket!
@@jameskoralewski296 full metal jacket is just a movie, that doesn't mean anything
@@mr.freeze3020 Full Metal Jacket was pretty close to what the old Marine Bootcamp was like before the snowflakes showed up.
@@jameskoralewski296 yeah but that was the old and this is the new, a lot of stuff has changed so you can't really base anything off of a movie unless you were actually a bootcamp instructor or someone enrolled in bootcamp many decades ago
@@mr.freeze3020 My neighbor was a drill instructor in the old Marine Corps back when they were allowed to cuss and yell and use slight physical punishment when necessary.

Orlando Florida was home for my Navy boot camp experience. It was August 1974. I was very athletic in high school and honestly boot camp just wasn't physically that difficult. It was much more a mental exercise than a physical one. They keep you busy all day every day so that passes the time. All in all a good experience. Thanks for my company commander AO1 Wayne Wilson for taking good care of me and all the members of company 217D.

Army sleeps under the stars , navy uses them to navigate, air force uses them to rate hotel rooms
Space force is their neighbours 😂😂
Marines eat the stars
Marine......SMASH
@@frkaisr You spelled crayons wrong.
Right on! Airforce rates those rooms! With the budget alloted exceeding the other branches combined. There is a reason, get past your cognitive bitter barriers and you may be able to appreciate all of our facets.
I don't know what angers me more...
The lack of motivation...or the fact that someone actually said, "I can't believe I have to earn this."
Alot of these people dont belong in the military
The twins. They thought that the Navy was gonna be easy. But they are breaking you down from a civilian into a navy Sailor
Their mindset alone is what got them separated.
I agree!
You know what's worse, reservists.. jesus...they go thru bootcamp and at like kids in their first unit.
Bootcamp should be harsher.
I went through navy boot camp in San Diego in the summer of 81, company 097. It was a different time back then, they weren’t nearly as gentle as they are today. I didn’t fully understand the reason for why they did the things they did, but it fully prepared me for life in the fleet. My first ship was the uss coronado agf 11, home ported in the Persian gulf. I’m proud to have served and I’m glad that our naval traditions are still continuing
I went through RTC San Diego in the summer of '80, and you are right, it was a whole different world (military-wise) back then. Obviously, only guys, and the recruit CC's could do almost anything just to see how much a raw recruit could take. Also, if I am remembering this right, back then I believe it was 12 weeks of basic, not the 8 that recruits go through now.
RTC San Diego Company 056. I certainly don't remember condiments on tables in chow hall. Lol
@@jessieball6195boot is 10 weeks
"Move faster You !" that is a brilliant line...
My favorite part of boot camp was when you’d have one guy try to motivate the entire division at night . 😂
The night time motivation speech , then we would hear " shut the fuck up "
“SHUT THE FUCK UP RPOC!”
@@josephr5038 “we’ve got to come together guys!”

_"I thought boot camp was going to be more relaxed"._ Funniest line of the entire video. Must have spent the first 20 years of his life on Twitter.

Imagine going to any boot camp in the military and thinking it’s easy or relaxed
if you wanted more relaxed you would go airforce
What a stressful job......physically, mentally, and spiritually! Thank you U.S. Navy Recruiters for your dedication! I give you praise for making our best, dedicated sailors. Thank you!♥
That job isn’t for everyone. Those guys and girl’s whoever does that for shore duty deserve to be selected for chief when they are up for it. Same thing with a navy recruiter as well.
When I was in Great Lakes for Boot Camp in 1998. We only lost 2 people from our division for Hardship Discharges. When 1 person messed up and had to drop for push-ups or anything else, We all dropped as a team. We were all in Boot Camp together and made sure we all finished together.
Lmao bro I remember right at taps our RDC would have our forward compartment watch drop in push up position and then yell Aft watch Aft watch and he would come hauling ass through the barracks and make him drop and tell the aft watch when I say down you will yell shut your pie hole and tell the forward watch when I say up you will say get in your racks. Ohh man the memories of that place. Summer of 2000.

I remember watching this when it came out a couple years after I joined. I just rewatched it after getting out of the Navy last year and it really brought back so much nostalgia. The circle of life happening every week at RTC Great Lakes lol. People replacing me and my peers and those that came before us. We really do have a special Navy
“You will not be coddled, nor disrespected. But you will be held to a high standard.”

@@raysevere5417 Experience aside, if you get inches from someone's face while screaming at them then you're being disrespectful. I don't know how the military defines "respect" but it isn't the definition the rest of the world is using.

I graduated Navy Boot Camp in January 1991 in Orlando, Florida! I was a scared 18 year old immature kid, who had never left home, it was the best decision I ever made ❤
My grandparents lived behind the Naval Base (off Gen. Reese Rd). We would hear the graduation ceremonies every Friday. He was retired WWII Air Force (Army Air Corps) so he had base privileges and would take me to the PX, library, and officers' club as a kid. It has now been redeveloped as a housing community but the park has a great name, "Blue Jacket Park" after the "ship" there....I'm sure you know what I am talking about. Thank you for your service.

I ship out in 3 days and this video made me feel like i was there. It made me scared, gave me second thoughts but i also made me feel like i was there, my heart was racing like i was the one doing the physical test. It felt like i just graduated with them. These people look so proud and happy and i love being praised and the minute my family watch me graduate, it will be the best day of my life.
I pray i get through this with no more problems and come out as a United States Salor of the Navy. Wish me good luck!

Is it just me. Or I think everyone everywhere should gone through this.
It builds character
I went through boot camp in 1988 at NTC San Diego, the same station where my grandfather helped train recruits before he retired. He told me two things to help me get through boot camp: 1) DO NOT Quit! 2) You will not be asked to do anything that you cannot do, mental or physical.

Great video, loved it. Congrats to those who teach with such method and passion. The US Navy is not only famous for the big boats and aircraft carriers, but the brave and honorable men and women on board those vessels or on the ground and air supporting the branch's efforts. Hope the young people in this video have long and meaningful careers.
PS: If there's a follow up production on their careers, please, let me know!
I'd love to see that as well. It'd be pretty cool if any of them watch this and responded.
Every military ever: "Bootcamp is going to be tough as nails."
These recruits: "Yeah it'll probably be easy."
The marine corps and Navy Seals boot camps are tough as nails. The remaining boot camps are more like boy scouts.
Altaranalt the navy seals are hard as hell, but my parents were in the military for the ARMY and they both said it can be hard only depending on your drill Sargent
@@salimahk22 I agree with your parents. Any service boot camp will go smoothly, as long as you listen and follow all directions. However, no other service even comes close to the training that the seals get. Look it up on youtube and you'll see what they go through!
James Koralewski already on it! The seals have much harder boot camp than the marines, which I was very surprised about because I thought it was the other way around
@@salimahk22 Why do you think that they sent a Seal team to get Bin Laden? Why do you think they brought a Seal team onboard our pirated ship and the Seals shot all the Hijackers at the same time with one shot? Because they are the best, that's why.

Thanks for this video. I enlisted and went to basic (USAF) in 1976. After we were issued our clothing, we only had combat boots for the duration. No tennis shoes for our physical training, no gym clothes either, just fatigue’s. All marching/formations were in combat boots as well except graduation day when we wore our dress blue uniforms. I retired in 2000 after 24 years. Hats off to all the new recruits who volunteered for one of the most exciting adventures they will probably ever have and the memories and friendships they’ll make along the way. I still miss it to this day and would do it all over again in a minute! Cheers

Just ask them to repeat it
@@X17OMS I had the same concern. How do you ask properly? For example, speaking less is more, I think there's no 'I" and instead you say "this recruit" every time, along with sentence "sandwiching". So what does the full sentence/question look like after applying the rules?

@ only enlisted run boot camp...there are no officers. Officers are for the academy
Absolutely fantastic! We need to see more of these types of documentaries on tv too. Inspiring and motivating.
i think the biggest motivator for me when i got through coast guard boot was coming home a failure if I didn’t make it through. Shit weighed on me for so long, i was reverted and sent to ramp, but even through all that, i made it. the mindset is everything; in bootcamp, the military, and in life. That’s the biggest thing i learned.
I'm glad you made it. I feel that even if you did get sent home, the nice thing about bootcamp is that you learn so much discipline that even if the military isn't for you, you're definitely going to come home a better and stronger person unless you're just COMPLETELY off the moon (there for the absolute wrong reason, like the twins seemed to be). I have lots of respect for those who went through it.

I have multiple people's numbers from bootcamp, including my AROC. It really wasn't bad. I cried myself to sleep from homesickness the first few weeks, but after that. It was great.

LOVED THESE GUYS.
At the end is a complete transformation from the beginning.
God bless you, our young men and women SAILORS ❤️
My recruiter described it as the most fun you’ll never want to do again
Hooyah
Thats exactly how I would describe my experience there.
he wasn't lying though lol
It's not a lie
they aren't wrong. looking back, it is fun, but it is miserable while in it :P
“Because as long as people in this world want to take your life, because of where you live, because of where you breath, you must be ready.”
Felt that one!
Yep I remember that line.
Cough 3rd world countries cough
@@cincyohio1946 You first fucktard
Is that why the US behave the way they do? Because they need enemies for their military to function and have a "meaning"
@SinemaCins No, most countries military put a "if" in there and are a defensive force to protect their nation and it's borders from being grabbed by other countries , not an attacking force...
thank you all for your service
Amazing! Thank you for your service!
'If I’m gonna live in this beautiful country, I’m gonna take advantage of that' respect.
When he said "RESPOND!!"
All i could think of is "This ain't it chief"
What reference is that?
Literally anything would’ve been better than standing there not saying anything lmao
Best advice for making it through. WORK TOGETHER!! Don’t let the RDCs get to you mentally. You are way stronger than you could ever imagine. You are a division of many different backgrounds and breeds. Use that to your advantage!!
Thanks to all who serve. Those who run towards not away from the danger are rare but necessary to this Country.
Conversations=shouldn’t be had
Good friends=Not in my bootcamp
Hotel=Trivago
memepolice I hope they hooked up. Nothing wrong with establishing a relationship with someone to help you get through it. The advantage of having mixed sex boot camp. Government should expect this to happen . It’s Nature.
SubVet 8286 Its not nature in my bootcamp
Nature=not in my bootcamp
SubVet 8286 I hope you’re joking, otherwise I hope you never wear the uniform. Your mindset gets good men killed.
SubVet 8286 This comment is exactly why we should have never integrated the sexes, in ANY of the services basic training. After basic, fine serve together, but during, fuck that.

why chief
I went to Great Lakes in 1986. Retired in 2006. I absolutely loved my career in the Navy
Just retired from the military. Brings back some memories. I salute all of them !
The twins weren't ready. Rachel certainly was though, she always had a smile, had a great attitude about it all, even the toughest parts, and will certainly make a great addition to the Navy.
Did the twins failed?
she also knows this is the only real time shes gotta work thru bootcamp (it said she was designated as intel cause of her foreign language background so she likely gonna spend all her time behind a desk)
One Buffalo Rachel can also get this pipe too so she’ll make a great addition
@@alanj.ramirez2013 the only people who get separated are those who are either physically incapable or mentally unready. I could tell by the look in the eye of the twin with hair during P-Days that he wasn't willing to put his ego aside for eight weeks in order to become a part of something greater than himself.
After my time on active duty I serve in the reserves now and I've seen that even 40 year old accountants can make it through RTC if they put their ego aside.
Don’t forget Luis also one of my cousins friends is in this vid when the Peay get there haircuts
To anyone looking to join or waiting to get shipped off. Boot camp is the easiest part of your navy career, it’s hard as hell for the first couple weeks because it’s a culture shock, you’ll question the decision you’ve made and if you should’ve just stayed back home. But after a couple weeks you get used to it, and get acclimated to the environment it gets a helluva lot easier. My tips to y’all would be
1. Listen to the instruction your RDC’s give you, they tell you everything you need to do for every task you’re given, all you need to do is execute
2. Trick yourself into thinking it’s fun, you’re not going to want to do everything they tell you to, but you just need to stay positive and make yourself enjoy the training
3. Always remember why you’re there and what got you to the point you’ve made it to
Just remember there’ll be good days and there’ll be bad days, keep pushing through, never get complacent, just keep learning and growing as an individual. I didn’t study a damn thing before I shipped off, I learned my general orders and chain of command when I got there (study all that good stuff, don’t be like me lmao) but I mentioned that so you know that I went there unprepared mentally and physically and still pushed through, y’all can do it to. Good luck to anyone who’s thinking of joining and anyone who’s soon to be shipped off.
HOOYAH NAVY!
Great advice!
Oof as a 17 yr old with asthma and autism i'm kinda nervous

MASH. “Make a Sailor Hurt”....
I went through boot camp in 2004. I retire in 9 months. I will forever love and hate the Navy. Upset to see how much has changed
Thanks for your service everyone and congrats for anyone passing every year.

" tell us this before we joined ".... Gee ima just join a water based military hoping i don't have to swim
Memerbro lol
Memerbro Faxx
😂
Balanced Woah 💀😭
Imma have to get lessons first🤣🤣😭
I have spiraled down a hell hole of watching these types of videos, I have multiple asignment I'm meant to be working on. This, this is more important.
River me too man, but I’m not even joining the navy, my partner is and I prioritize understanding what that will be like for them over my education now😂
Boot camps fun towards the end, and they were prolly more strict because they knew they were being filmed. But it was still fun when I did it
Happened to me a few weeks ago. Its led me to decide that I want to go to the Naval Academy. Funny how things happen.
LOL I love your description of this. I am on the same downward spiral.
lololol same
I'm late watching this OBVIOUSLY but I just want to tell all those that made it thru, A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS and A HUGE THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE 🙏🏼
May God Bless you and keep you and may you always find peace in your Faith🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
ROCK ON GUYS 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️
"Did I tell you to move?"
"No sir."
"I'm not a sir!"
"No ma'am!"
"What the fuck did you just say, recruit?!"
"There are only two genders, and you're neither, so... I don't know what to call you!"
If only that's how it went.
Potato Chips instead it’s you fuck up and they smoke the dog shit out of you and your platoon
@Isabel Chispita Beltran what the fuck are you on about?
"No Walter!"
Lmaooo 😭😂 jokes aside though only Officers are referred to as sir or ma’am which is why he got in his face for that. Should’ve been “No, Petty Officer.”
Leisure= even so, a man's- east. Not some, pleasure man. Chaldean
Imagine joining the navy and not knowing how to swim
You'll get sent to the kiddie pool to learn.
I had 8 in my division that didn’t know,it’s more common than you would think.
Cometzz 😂😂😂
I wanna join the navy cause navy is more about technology but I don’t know how to swim
Harjit Sidhu If I we’re you I would take swimming lessons or at the very least practice to float.Because while you will be taught in basic if you can’t swim,it will take away from other training that you might need.Meaning you will go to swim class until you pass while everyone else is doing something else.I hope that helps.
My favorite person in this documentary is Rachel. I loved her confidence and that she was very sure of herself. And the fact that she was a Navy brat. She knew exactly what she wanted. And mission accomplished. I love the fact that she came from a loving and supportive family. I wish her and all the other graduates the best.
I know this video is 4 years old, but I am impressed with the way the drill instructors are for the navy.
I've met Chief Kalaw in my ship's galley during my boot camp experience. He randomly sat in front of me and talked to me about mental toughness. It's a once in a lifetime experience that I'll never forget. Graduated May 31, 2019. Hoo yah, 216!
Great man to speak with lots of knowledge of the navy
Peter Xu that’s when I graduated bootcamp!
I leave for boot camp in 1 week
Billy Green-Church I leave in 2 days lol
Good luck, stay strong and know it's ok to cry. Crying shows how strong you are
"WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?!"
Me, at the most inappropriate time: *giggles*
well any fuckin time sweetheart
Lol
Exactly

“RESPOND! Say something! Yes, chief. No, chief. Maybe, chief. Right on, chief. Totally, chief. What is it?!?”
Thanks for a great vid. It gives me hope for the future of this country.
I graduated boot camp in 1977. I retired in 2019 having served onboard 24 Naval ship's. I still talk to hundreds of guys I sailed with. Great life.
Holy fuck man I’m surprised you weren’t the MCPON at one point. Jesus Christ the navy has to give you 100% retirement pay instead of 75%. Shit you earned it. My hats off to you for that much time served
I don’t know how they never have voice cracks lmao
That main guy did. Ortiz had his voice cracked somewhere near the end.
They all do
man i hope i dont laugh hard when that happened to me 🤣
LUBRICANT you will
It happens all the time, they just didn't show it on camera

I wish someone would scream in everyone's face, "no one feels sorry for you" because that's just life. It's awesome. I can't wait.
Being a drill for any branch is shitty. They get barely any sleep or time to themselves, at least that’s how the army was. My platoon sergeant was a drill and explained that it gets more irritating than fun
@@ZumbieGuy Yeah, but I'll tell you that they never forget that one rule of life. No one feels sorry for them. But I do have a ton of respect for what they do. They obviously did sign up for that role, but they wanted to. I hope one day I have the conviction to feel like I can accomplish that myself and do it everyday without faltering. You're a hardcore babysitter for your whole day. It's gotta be wearying after awhile, on any person. They get a lot of respect from me for what they put themselves through. Big ups to my drills out there.
I was in boot camp in 1969
And this 73 yr.old would love to visit camp again lots of memories
