They want the best, thats how it should be

I had to carry my boots and my shoe shine polish around my neck. I also my drill instructor made me do do 1000 push-ups or setups. On command

Just talked to my local Marine recruiter a couple days ago. Gonna be trying to join the Corps at 26 years old, I’m fairly confident in my physical fitness but it’s gonna be real damn hard not laughing at these insults, I pray to God they’re not directed at me directly cause I’ll get my ass handed to me for laughing fs

1:11 Saying "fag", especially on camera, would get the DI an NJP now. What a difference of maybe 10-15 years makes

Funniest place you can’t laugh 😂

This clip may be comical but I promise you guess. If people only knew what went on inside the squad day.

I started at USMC and then switched to USN to become a corpsman. I will never forget my DIs. You do not join the Marines you are made into a Marine. Even after moving to the Navy I am still and was always treated as a brother. Simper Fi. Trust ol' Doc to keep you alive. HMC (FMF) retired.

does the recruit on the rope not want to get across or something?

A picture is worth a thousand words, but how many words is this video worth 💀💀💀

ooh rah - brings back memories! :)

Getting roasted on the pugil sticks is ruthless. Getting roasted when trying to run while your DI is walking....just heartbreaking

Oh the memories

The insanity of some drill sergeants is scary and very entertaining but never laugh at them.

Bro sounded like a eagle

MCRD San Diego

And that’s how we learn lol

My Dad was a Drill Instructor at Ft. Polk in the 60's and went to Vietnam in the 70's. It wasn't much Fun growing up around that. He did take me out to the Obstacle Course one time.

I need a time out Sarge

Positive parenting.

Private F’ing SNOWBALL!!!!!!!!

Every time I see this thumbnail I think it's some Scout TF2 cosplay.

Yo thats crazy no wonder 200000 vets have took them selves out

Yea im ruined for taking orders im more into giving them so f that hat . Dumb looking anyway makes you look like you mite follow orders or something dumb. Im amazed anyone sign's up for this bs.

The smoking is different when the camera off

Horrible pushups

And that is why I never went into the military.

😂😂😂

My drill sergeant (Army) stutter. So you know my platoon was in trouble.

I don't know how old this is, but that recruit has got the dog in him. Probably a kill hat by now smoking a recruit on the quarterdeck...returning the favor of making Marines.

Who is the 1st DI? His voice and style crack me up every damn time 😂

WTF

Drill sgts are some of the best heavy metal singers I ever heard 💀

Tf is happening.

My junior drill sgt (Army) in 1969 was just back from his second combat deployment in Vietnam. I don't know if he was a psychopath *before* he joined (or was drafted) or if Vietnam made him that way...but he was a psychopath.

Being a Drill Instructor was the absolute pleasure and HONOR of my life! I worked with Sgt Nichols, the Green Belt in this video who gave the speech. This was a GREAT time in life. Building boys into young MEN! Men who were willing to give EVERYTHING for this great nation! Giving that Green Belt speech and that Senior Drill Instructor speech were such proud moments, knowing the men we were about to create! This was probably record JUST before 9/11. We were all training recruits when that happened and the world changed. I THINK Sgt Nichols was a SDI when 9/11 happened… just trying to remember the timeframe… this video is “pickup day” or as the recruits called it “Black Friday”. What an amazing time in life! The beginning of an incredible life for these young men. Another chapter in a story I will never forget, and none of them probably will either. Semper Fi Brothers!!!

That was terrifying when it happened to me.

Unfortunately uncovered as a recruit

This is legit hilarious to watch.

That never happened to me 400 times.

I'll never forget the time I marched the platoon and I was sounding off all the DI's cadence's from the seniors on down. They were shocked 😳. They didn't think Garcia could sound off like that 😉 Plt.1094 12/22/89

That kid has been through some shit the voice being lost gotta love hell week

Sgt Carter fed up with private Pile.

That will learn you

Sgt carter and a whole bunch of gomer pyles

OMG, those were the days. You either laughed or cried. Either way, it was under your breath. Call me crazy but I loved every minute of it. 😂
