"Bad Luck For That Captain." - The Pacific (2010) #shorts #thepacific #movie #movieinsight #scene
The Pacific is a 2010 American war drama miniseries produced by HBO, Playtone, and DreamWorks that premiered in the United States on March 14, 2010.
The series is a companion piece to the 2001 miniseries Band of Brothers and focuses on the United States Marine Corps's actions in the Pacific Theater of Operations within the wider Pacific War. Whereas Band of Brothers followed the men of Easy Company of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment through the European Theater, The Pacific centers on the experiences of three Marines (Robert Leckie, Eugene Sledge, and John Basilone) who were in different regiments (1st, 5th, and 7th, respectively) of the 1st Marine Division.

The Army is unloading crates of fresh supplies. An air raid siren goes off, and the soldiers drop everything and run to the jungle for cover when they see enemy planes overhead. The Marines sit and wait, hiding behind two barrels. They're taking advantage of the Army's ignorance of the fact that the Japanese bomb the airfield, not the beach. Then the Marines run in and raid what supplies they can: Crackers, canned goods, anything, and the marines discover that the Army has a better weapon than they do -- the M1 Garand rifle.
Leckie cracks open a captain's footlocker and sees it's full of personal items. He grabs a nice looking pair of moccasin slippers and a box of cigars. Phillips and Juergens crack open another crate and see new M1 Garand rifles, but before Phillips can help himself the Army starts trickling back in and the Marines run with their pilfered booty, laughing. Leckie is still walking with his stash when Lt. Corrigan rides up in a Jeep and stops him.
When Leckie returns to his foxhole, he shows off his cigars and greedily says he won't share them. But, he adds, he got something for them - cans of peaches. (Fandom: The Pacific Wiki)

"Cans of peaches"
What is this?
I love that scene. Lackey picked up the nickname peaches for a while after that incident.
All necessary for mental health.
Well Lacky just made the Corps look like petty thieves. I’ll pass on watching that as his actions made real U.S. Marines look like common thieves.

Tactical Acquisition.
Gear adrift is gear a-gift...
@@emperorjames794nothing tactical about it. I just take stuff and let everyone know that I'm taking it, I took it, they're going to have to fight me to get it back. I've secured 14 morphine auto injectors, four issued rifles, more helmets and radios than I can remember, a whole battalion's narcotics locker full of valium, and a standard issue M2 carbine from 1939 in an enemy cache. That last one was full of sand and packing grease. I told everyone that it was US Army equipment and I was securing it from enemy hands. Cleaned it up and it was as good as the day it was issued. It hung on my wall for 14 months until I was ordered to return it. The other rifles? Senior NCO's and officers had to come humble to take them back to their units. The drugs? I was thanked for recovering by some very nervous medical officers. The rest? I got in a lot of fights.
@silentjustin bro that is a motto in the Marine Corps
"We're using weapons my grandfather used."
That's entirely on the Marine Corps bejng stubborn. They literally refused to replace their shitty bolt action rifles for years and even when they did the new rifles, they'd almost always keep have them on shore duty and rarely bring it with them in battle.
And yet Marines somehow still won battles and crushed the Japanese Army.
@@dc76384I wouldn’t say they crushed the Japanese at Guadalcanal, after all the battle lasted for months and by all accounts they barely held the line at Edson’s ridge
You served in the Army?
@@dc76384 no, but I have a degree in military history
@@mannymejia4339 Impressive...what's that gotten you?
Fun fact: The Marine Corps was skeptical of the M1 Garand and believed the M1903 Springfield was more reliable in the dirt and grime of combat. As such while they had thousands of M1 Garands before the battle of Guadalcanal they chose to issue them to support troops first, with the hope that any issues would be found and fixed before they were issued to the infantry. Several Marine units landed on Guadalcanal with M1 Garands, such as the the 3rd Defense Battalion (a Costal Artillery and Anti-Aircraft unit), and the 11th Marines (an Artillery Regiment). The 8th Marines, an infantry regiment, landed with 250 M1 Garands originally destined for Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego because the regiment had a shortage of M1903 Springfields and used the M1 Garand as a stopgap.
That's the Marine Corps for you. They gave the new and advanced rifles, which had already served the army for 6 years, to the ones that would rarely use them, while the infantry kept the old stuff.
Some things never change, marines were still refusing to switch to the new lead free bullets in favor of the old green tips
They also had issued a few Johnson rifles and LMGs if I'm not mistaken, and they seemed rather liked by the marines too.
@@jimzeez the Johnson lmg was only issued to marine paratroopers. Johnson rifles were used by some Marines in the paratrooper division those rifles were originally made for a dutch east indies contract. The marines allegedly traded explosives for them
@@dethofgod666hey at least they got suppressors and new rifles
Finish the sentence:
"There's only one thief in the Marine Corps and..."
Every one else is just trying to get their stuff back
Can't finish that with how "everyone else is just trying to get their shit back". Mostly because I tell my guys, "There's one thief in the Army and it's me. If you leave your shit unsecured, I'm taking it. Come see me if anything is missing." That and I never served in the Marines.
@@mattmarzulayou sound like the type to get smoked by your whole platoon
"... he stole a can of peaches from my mess!"
@@BloodDragon592 Nah, that sounds like standard army shit.
After 8yrs in the USMC, I tell guys “join a force that has its own budget.” Marines are a Dept of the Navy, they don’t have their own budget. Every single one of our rifles and humvees were ‘refurbished’ Army gear.
Just no stop😂
Like their M27 rifle? With LPVO? 😂
When were you in? I was in an infantry unit from 06-10 and our gear was good, then after I got off active I drilled non obligation with a reserve STA platoon before I went contractor and was issued a brand new m4a1 with a suppressor, all brand new gear also. I mean sure the budget wasn't great, but the boys who needed it got good gear, and still do. Shit try running around Iraq as a contractor with a vz.58 or an old worn out AK47 like we did contracting and you will learn to cherish the gear and weapons you had in the Corps
@@Alemikkolawell here’s the thing sometimes (when the Marines are good boys) the Navy gives them the rifle they want, as a treat.
@@Mary-dc6js I’m guessing you were either in Intelligence? I’ve had several Marine friends tell me that they were issued m16a2s and it was like 2009. They were Artillery and one of them was a combat engineer.

@@mordredpendragon1235 That sort of short-sighted attitude is degenerative and benefits no one, like when rich people think they're smart because they've found a multitude of ways to not pay taxes, but whine when the country turns into a destabilized mess that can't fund anything. There is such a thing as sacrificing for a greater good which'll benefit all. You can't run a civilization where everyone's trying to cheat each other all the time and dodge responsibility; eventually, someone has to step up and be an adult.
WWII was one of those few wars in human history where there was no moral gray-zone: one side was good, the other was absolutely evil. One side was launching one campaign of extermination after the next and killing civilians in the tens-of-millions, the other was responding to the aggression with a pinprick of the horrors the axis powers inflicted on them. Germany suffered 1.5-3 million civilian casualties...after invading the USSR and exterminating 13-20 million civilians; Japan suffered less than one million civilians killed, right after going into China and massacring 13-19 million civilians. The axis were absolutely evil, while the allies (despite being victimized on an unprecedented scale) fought back with unbelievable restraint; anyone who was "stupid" enough to endanger themselves and sacrifice their short-term safety and material comfort in order to rid the world of the greatest evils ever seen is an absolute hero.
Sometimes, sitting on the sidelines doesn't make you clever; it makes you a coward and a useless mooch, someone who deserves to be spat on.
I love that his CO didnt bust his ass over stealing from an army officer. Cause that would've been hypocritical AF since hes sitting in that jeep cradling a crate of whiskey that definitely came from the army as well. 😆
From the same guy he stole from. And his jeep was loaded😅😂
In WW2 it was fine but I would imagine if a buncha marines did this now they would be court marshaling people
The hypocrisy was spelt out plain as day as the jeep drove off and succinctly in about seven words by Leckie. Yet, you just wrote an entire paragraph about it.
Moron lmao
Well done you understood the purpose of the scene.
@@GiraffeFeatures Straight up, this guy needs to learn the word “succinct”. Leckie laid it all out in seven words.

164th is a North Dakota Guard unit. They have alot of pride in having served with the marines at Guadacanal to this day
They have a lot of pride in their moccasin and cigars and whiskey and canned peaches getting stolen by the Marines...
Except for their captain. Lol
Story time. Back when I was in OIF 1 we fixed some ACs . That heat in Iraq ain't no joke. We're all a bunch of pvt and specialists. We're nice and cool. Our Commander found out and had us remove them and place them by their office so the officers can have them. Needless to say we were all on stop loss. So when the order got lifted we all decided to bolt out of the army. Commander was upset and asked us why won't we re-up. We said cause it's hot and you took our ACs. We're going home to live in good conditions. Never looked back. Bad leadership will ruin anything
When I was in the army we got MRE's but there were suddenly gone. No one knew where. Then one day some one peered into the LT's shelter and seen about 30 MRE's. He was asked about it and he replied "Hey I gotta have my supply"
I haven't served, but I assume that it's one thing to steal non-essential stuff like a pair of shoes, a box of cigars or a crate of alcohol, but another - to steal food from GIs. These kind of COs seem to attract "enemy grenades" in their tents.
@@firefail105 Fragging or frequent saluting to that officer inside the AO happens. XD
unit?
That’s hilarious. The Marine sir was actually giving him the heads up that the word was out by this Army captain for his shoes and cigars. He was warning him to be careful who saw him with it so that he didn’t get in trouble. That’s awesome.
Blame the USMC for their reluctance to adapt the Garand
"Recon"-ed some gear that's all. There's only one thief in the Corp, everyone else is just looking for their gear. 😂
Gear adrift is gear agift. It's good to know some things never change
"Tactically acquired"
This is not "gear adrift" at all. This is merely theft. How would the Marines like it if the Army did the same to them?
@Briselance probably wouldn't care, honestly. But let's be real, the army wouldn't bother stealing the Marines' gear, as it's usually outdated.
@@Briselance and what the hell would the army steal from the marines?
Strategic taking of equipment to alternate location
Fun fact after fighting along side the Marines would nickname the 164th infantry regiment as the 164th Marines
Same with the 77TH infantry division. The marines nickname them the 77TH marine division
@@joshuagoldman1916 That was a darn good expose' The Fat One (Electrician) did on that unit. What a tremendous unit they were!
@@leftistsarenotpeople damn straight
The army was a little all over the map in the pacific. Some were sent away and deemed unfit for combat, others like the 77th army/ marines (and marines don’t like to compliment each other let alone other branches) the 3rd among others fought savagely.
Some things never change. My M16 in Iraq was probably 20 years old. The Army had some state of the art equipment and brand new M4s.
I finished rewatching Band of Brothers through shorts and now I'm starting on The Pacific

I thought that is what he was going to do when I saw this scene for the first time.
😏
my great uncle used to hang out with marines when he was in the air force during the 50s and 60s. apparently Chesty Puller himself did this as well
Leckie has nothing to complain to his officers, the guy knew he was stealing and yet gave a blind eye for this.
No kidding. Dude let him slide, and gave him advice to avoid being caught.
Army: Hey, that's Army gear!
Marines: You mean *OUR* gear?
So Marines are Commie red bastards?
No greater crime than stealing from another fellow soldier. My regiment had zero theft and were surprised when we were attached to an RTR unit who nicked everything they could from us. Sad really.
the 1st marines were well in 1942 under supplied due to the ammo ship that was supposed to resupply the 1st marines was attacked by i think was zeros or a Japanese destroyer and the marine CO didn't believe in the m1 garand , would rather have marines continued using m1903 Springfield until he was convinced so really i wouldn't blame the marines for stealing they kinda needed to considering they were in the jungle holding the Japanese from taking Henderson from all directions
Better than having the locals or the enemy steal it.
Secure your kit. Trust is a luxury or privilege in the military.
@@jonsmitt9769 marines were holding a tight line around Henderson while being under fire from Japanese artillery and attacks , the army that had landed had not know that the Japanese were attacking the airfield not the stockpiles as they had no idea on were they were

What I find ironic is that officers and Sr enlisted still bring personal effects with them on deployment but forbid even confiscate what they call "contraband" for everyone else.

S.T.E.A.L. Strategic Transfer of Equipment to an Alternate Location.
True story; during my time in basic our Phase banner in the army was stolen and disappeared.
It wasn't Marines who stole it; it was Coast Guard soldiers. Why?
Because we were singing a cadence making fun of the branches as we walked by them, happened to be singing the coast guard part of that cadence. It did not take them long to find our stuff and take off with it.
You better believe we got the axe end of that mess too
My Marine unit ‘tactically aquired’ 20 Army Humvee batteries while training on an an Army base. We couldn't get the battery shipment in time for the training. Adapt and overcome.

Gear adrift, is a gift. Semper Fi.
Robert Leckie wrote a book about his time in the Marines after the attack on Pearl Harbor. It's called "Helmet for my pillow" and it's a great read.
Misconceptions the marines did not have the m1 because they had hand me downs from the army. The leadership was slow to adopt the m1.
Its true about the rifles. While the semi automatic M1 Garand was adopted in 1935 there was a few things changed on it before it went into full scale production. Also manufacturing issues at first delayed all branches from getting the gun. The first military branch was the US Army to be fully equipped with the new M1. The Marines were still using the old WW1 M1903 Springfield bolt action rifles until mid 43.
heck the Wehrmacht was issuing bolt action rifles as standard issue until the fall of berlin lol
this is what I called: Tactical acquisition. Been there done that multiple times. Tough to meet mission requirements if you don't tactically procuring stuffs for your people.
Idk why he was mad, they were giving him fair warning lol

It would have been hilarious if the captain was played by David Schumer. I can imagine Capt Soho yelling at the marines because he felt it worked well for easy company only to find that these marines are more unruly and don’t give a shit about his authority.
Ah yes, the endearing act of theft.
Marines being marines OH RAH
Ironically, the M1 Garand wasn't considered the top line rifle until well into the war. It was initially only given to rear line and reserve units. Then those units got into combat and it proved far superior to the bolt action weapons it was replacing.
"Look, I understand what a massive hypocrite I am, son - I just don't want you to get caught!"
Well, at least they didn't steal that pic for baitin material.
I laughed when saw a man telling those threat even he looted one 😂😂😂
Shit rolls down hill. That private better recognize
Fun fact, the US Marine Corps had M1 grands, but chose not to issue them to Frontline troops at the beginning of the war because they did not trust the new weapon yet
I don't get why he's mad...that officer was just giving him a heads up that the army captain is going HAM.
