So much this. We always regret not being better.

[@jasonchristopher2977]

I agree fully. I went to Parris Island in 08 at 28. I was the Old man. The DIs fucked with me so bad. But being older gave me alot more experience than kids outta HS. I had kids, was married, had some life under my belt and I was going down the wrong path. This truly saved my life. I think every kid should have to go to Boot camp and serve a total of 1 year. This country would be a better place. If you got no momma or daddy they teach you what you need to know through life. Everyone said I'd never make it. I didn't like orders or to be told what to do, but I actually enjoyed the hell out of it. My son went through last year following my steps going into Infantry. I was a 0352, 0331 in a CAT platoon. Changed to MAP after. Filling out a will really puts things into perspective. I wish I could've went back with my son and went through again. It was challenging then but you miss it after. They really make marines. The honor courage and commitment stays with us forever. War is hell and after Idk why we was even there in either country, we lost so many great ladies and gents, and they didn't really prepare us for after its over. That's what I wish would change. You don't get it until you see marines with TBI, missing limbs, and burns. So if you see or know a vet tell them thanks. You have no idea what hell they've been through and what scars you can't see easily. That's the only reason for no draft is brave ppl give up 4 years at least so others don't have to. After seeing how Brandon withdrew really makes me angry. Seems like such a waste of fucking time, money, and mostly life. These gents was really something amazing. Never know what true love and brotherhood is unless you go down this path. Thank you all. Semper Fi.

[@Inaros404]

11-15 let me tell you right now, I understand that maybe you couldve done better but the whole point of bootcamp was to break you so understandably so. You did just enough, if not more than what was required :) i promise bro!

[@BiggHogg870]

Man I don't think I've agreed with a comment more than this one...so true.

[@LewisBowels]

The Corps gave us a lot but there were people ahead of us that decided not to allow us the opportunities to give more. At least that's what happened for me because "Fuck you, Lance Corporal," and then "Fuck you, Corporal." I couldn't give the Marine Corps more but I turned it around and gave my Marines everything I could. That's the one thing in life I will never regret; suffering for my Marines so they had easier lives at work and less stress at home.

I used to ask that when I'd come across those cats. Once you peeled back some of the bs it usually revolved around wanted in on the combat arms side of whatever service. Stuff like this and fish stories about their experience was this for a few months then soi\mct was f that. And some it intimidated. So went the army route. They wanted this, just toned down a bit. Outside rangers and airborne mm it was a whole lot more toned down than they thought. And they were a little disappointed. It's not bagging on anyone they're just different animals. A little thing I picke d up on was when youd ask new people the first response was usually military then drag the branch out of them and what they did. You know the response from any Marine, and boot camp especially, you get a quick sense of the way it impacted their lives. Navy, air force, some army basics arent (for various reasons which revolve around each branches role and mission) anything like this experience. And for good reason. What good does it do to destroy an AF airman like this, hand to hand, weeks of weapons work....etc. Time we'll better spent in the tons of mos technical schooling that's needed for most of the work they do.

Wether you go to San Diego or pi for bootcamp you’ll never forget the memories you made

[@brentmead3131]

Just watching doesn’t do it justice. This was such a shocking experience lmao. I went to Parris Island tho, not here

Love the subtitles... drill instructor chaos

[@justrione]

Man 23 years later I still remember this day like it was yesterday this and being in Fallujah, Iraq in 2004... I was in 1st BN PLT 1000 Alpha Company. That was the longest most frustrating day of my life, but that day along with all the other to follow change me forever and helped make me the man I am today. Once a Marine Always A Marine. There are thing that you learn in boot you still will probably do to this day. I still make grunt rolls when I pack lol.. Semper Fi my brothers !!

I remember we started out with a bunch and by the end there was only like 30 left. The day of graduation on the way out I saw a couple of the drops working waiting to be discharged. I bet they wished they would have stuck it out . Couldn’t believe they still were waiting to go home .

Meet the drill instructor day. T day 1. It was a nightmare. I only remember bits and pieces of that day. Sweaty, exhausted, squad bay a complete mess. Just to learn to make a rack lol.

[@yeetusyeeterson5506]

Honestly I still have trouble believing I went through this. Some parts got so fucking bad you'd just turn into a robot until it was over. But god damn it feels so much better now. Rah semper

I could never find the words for it but this right here is exactly what it is🤣

[@Lasurge1982]

Aww memories…… looking back these were some of the best times of my life. I would do it all over again. I went thru in 2006 fox co plt 2089 SEMPER FI!

[@rl2905]

You need to have a lot of strength and energy to survive in recruit training as a recruit, but the more I watch these the more I realize you need like 10x that energy to be a DI. These guys are just non-stop explosive energy. All day, every day....

[@MustangMike52]

Its pretty cool to look back on this when youre past boot camp, SOI etc. We had no idea that 3 months that felt like 3 years was going to change us so much for the better and that eventually we would come to miss it but thats just the military in general i guess. "This shit sucks" when youre in "this shit sucks" when you're out

[@unspecified2472]

For those who don’t know….this is drop day at MCRD San Diego…T1! The “drop” means you’re dropped from receiving into your training platoon. And this shit here goes on for hours. And if you’re going to write a comment, you better spell Corps correctly! With a firkin “s.”

[@FFEMTB08]

Hell yes! Love these long ones!! Keep them coming!!

[@MotoEnt]

OOH RAH!

[@gettinsomewind6384]

Takes me back to '89 like it was just yesterday. Only a Marine veteran understands those 13 weeks of raw intensity. We are truly a rare breed. Semper Fi.
