Fort Jackson Shakedown at Basic Training

[@nicholasdavie6357]

Jason Lesperance My best piece of advice. Don’t take it super seriously, you don’t need to be captian America and all super soldier. You can have fun with it. Do the exercises right when you are ether doing PT or being smoked, as long as you are putting in effort that’s all they care about, so if you have to go slow to do it correctly do it. Don’t buy anything anyone offers you. Near the end of boot camp I had some many people trying to sell me my family crest and shit, doesn’t matter. Save your money in AIT and boot camp so when you get out you can have 6G or more saves up for things you ACTUALLY need. Best of luck man, please if you have any questions reply back.

Drill Sergeants aren’t assholes, it’s only viewed that way by snowflakes going to the army thinking they’re better than everyone and thinks that they’re special only to have their heads pulled out of their arses by their drill sergeants . Drill sergeants do what they need to do in order for discipline, this is why there are 2 sort of people coming out of the military, one who actually participated and followed orders and do what is told and one who complains about how everyone is so rude and mean.

Did the same thing in 1976. I was a N.G. recruit for the Hawaii national guard..Fort Jackson was my basic training ,then off to ft. Benning for A.I.T. 11C infantry was my M.O.S. .Sgt. Mobley was my D.I. along with Sgt. Prat. It was a very hard but interesting endeavor. But it got me in top shape. I was proud to be a military man and look back on my service with pride..the 20 mile full pack march with weapon was the hardest part..it was raining all the time and it was cold..God bless the Army and God bless America.

When I first got to basic they took muster to make sure they had everyone from MEPS (of course) and as they read off the names this one kid corrected the Drill Sergeant on how to pronounce his name. The Drill Seargeant got a millimeter from this dude’s ear and told him in the calmest voice “Shut the **** up.

The Drill Sergeant then returned to his place at the front of the group and completed muster.

Everybody had to go into this small, private room, a little bigger than a closet. Each person had to go in there alone. Then, there's no witnesses and no video cameras. That was so that, if you had something illegal, you had that one chance to throw it away and nobody would ever know you had it. You could have drugs, weapons or anything else and you could anonymously throw it away and nobody would ever know you had it. If you didn't throw it away and the drill Sgt found it, you could get kicked out of the Army, get arrested or, if it was something small and a minor offense, they would just take it away and have you do push-ups. After we went into the amnesty room, we dumped our bags onto a table and the Drill Sergeants checked everything.

Thanks for sharing that. I have a ministry and we share with those in need each day. It feels good to hear stories of victory. God bless you!!! Peace, Lynne 🍃💜🍃

[@kramnull8962]

That's the thing. Most will not pray for anyone else. Simply because they are afraid God will bless someone else and not them...

[@cuzkyr5066]

@@kramnull8962 that's such a stupid comment. You're the reason people don't want to get involved in religion or religious activities. People like you, as in the religious folks who act like they are better than others, that judge others, that think they can gatekeep simply their own personal standards, expectations, and interpretations of the religion they associate themselves with.

So, what im wondering is why the recruiter told them to bring all that crap with them to boot camp? When I got to Paris Island in 81, I had the clothes on my back and the paper work sent by MEPS, The Marine Corp provided everything else.

I’m pretty sure people come from out of state and have to wait a couple days before they even go in. So they gotta have clothes and stuff for a bit.

When I enlisted at Oakland Ca. We arrived at Fort Ord.at 2 AM. They began screaming before we got off the bus. And got 3 hours sleep. When we got to out new company to start basic .it really wasn't that bad .we did get up at 4 Am. For 8 weeks we had a great Platoon sergeant He was great at helping us How to spit shine out boots.,clean out M1 .after 8 weeks we actually looked like soldiers. Was proud to have served my country.
