Michelle, you are one of the most bad ass people I’ve ever seen. You continue to inspire me and thousands of others. I wholeheartedly appreciate these videos, I cried when you climbed the A-frame and slid down the rope because that was so motivating to me and I can’t express how much you inspire me. Thank you so much! Keep up the hard ass work you do.

As a former Marine myself, I appreciate that you and your fellow participants took this challenge seriously and did not make a joke of it. The gentleman who quit after day 1 is the reality of Marine Corps bootcamp. It's purpose in phase 1 and the first week of bootcamp is to weed out those not cut out for what's to come. You did an excellent job and put your heart into those 3 grueling days. It was great to witness. The respect you three had for each other, and the camaraderie you built in 3 shorts days, goes to show just why Marines bond all over the world because each know exactly what it took to earn that title of a United States Marine. Something nobody can ever take away. Esprit De Corp. Proud of you all for the hard work and dedication and respect for yourself and the Marine Corps.

They weren't "taking it seriously." The drill instructors make you take it seriously.

[@jeffburnham6611]

@Fiona mcgonigle the sand pit (or P.I.T for platoon incentive training) is a place where you as an individual or with the rest of your platoon are taken to, to "correct" deficiency in training. You're put through intensive physical activity, combined with mental fatigue (mind games). It's not a fun place to be when everyone is throwing sand into the air and you're covered in sweat. You quickly learn to do things the way the DI's want them to be done, as a team.

I admit, I started off getting a chuckle out of watching them go thought this and doubted they finish. But then I had a flashback to boot camp....I stopped the video to reminisce, and recall how tough boot camp was, how there were many recruits that showed up completely unprepared physically or mentally to do such a hard thing. Every recruit struggles with something at some point in training, whether physical, mental or spirit. We started off with almost 100 recruits in our platoon, we finished with 86 if I recall. A few were injured, a few didnt make it more than a week before they lost it or broke down and were discharged, a few were discharged for personal issues they had lied about like their police record, or owing child support. Yall deserve a big Ooo Rahh! and much respect for your efforts and sticking with it!!!! I sincerely hope that you were able to take some valuable lessons from it..... Michelle, you showed you have loads of spirit in the face of adversity!!! You pushed yourself, let your instructors push you and did awesome!!!! Thats the Marine corps spirit!!! The speech that Senior Drill Instructors give when you first meet them is so powerful. Someone telling you they expect 100% effort, and that they will do all they can for you to reach that is inspiring. You learn to love, hate and respect them, but in the end, and forever, you appreciate and cherish what they teach you that you can do with the right mind set.

[@Blaq_Phantom]

Great video. This was so peaceful to watch.... One thing you have to understand is recruits are for a lack of better words stupid. This is why we do it repetitively and whey they yell at us to keep the stress level up. The only less stressful day we had was on Sunday at church services.

When you think it can't get worse, it gets worse. This statement was so accurate. That's every day of boot camp in a nutshell. I remember this one time going back to the squad bay and thinking we were finally going to be able to go to the bathroom and drink water and then they said cavalars (Helmets) on line and my heart dropped. I thought at least let us to to the bathroom first like damn. We ended up doing fireman carries and buddy drags in our sweatshirts for hours. Everyone already had to pee so bad and were dehydrated before we even started and we were there doing it for I don't even know how many hours. And the heat on top of not having drank water in forever and then having to run around and fireman carry plus trying with everything you have not to pee your pants.

Having been to marines boot camp three things that will never happen, you say “yes sir/ma’am or no sir/ma’am” when answering a question and “aye aye sir/ma’am” when acknowledging a command, a drill instructer will never tell you “good job”, and you never respond with “I” you always use “this recruit”. You get no time to eat, also in boot camp you can’t really quit you can refuse to train but it’s very long process

If you join the military you understand that DI's and DS's are one of the most respected jobs anyone can be offered. You are literally training the next era of soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen. My Drill Sergeants were not my friends but I still stay in contact with them because they are the best of the best as far as guidance. At home they're completely normal people with families, but in order to change a person from a civilian to a disciplined soldier, you have to push them and that's what they do. Only about 1% of the population joins the military and it's their job to train and weed out those unfit to serve.

Yelling is an essential part of her job. My Uncle was a Drill Sergeant in the Marine Corps during Desert Storm. He's a loud person, but he's not cold-hearted and stony. He's a big ole softy now. If you want to be a Marine you HAVE to be prepared for the yelling, because it's going to happen.

I'm glad that she had said something about how some people don't complete bootcamp. It doesn't look easy and it's amazing that men and wemen do this. My husband went to boot camp and he ended up dropping since he couldn't do what was physically asked of him. He was disowned for "giving up" and I know it probably gets to you mentally to finish or even if you don't finish bootcamp.
