That story about taking extra fire watch to practice is the essence of what being a Marine is to me. Doing WHATEVER it takes to accomplish the mission. That mindset has served me incredibly well. Semper Fi!

[@ryan1127]

I love how in the beginning he avoids swearing. The deeper into the Marine Corps stuff he gets the more he just starts dropping F bombs. Oorah sir!

[@happyperv8319]

[@stevez.6805]

I didn't realize how bad I cussed until I came home on leave for the first time... My mom was not impressed with all the F bombs I dropped. As a Marine, you don't notice it, every other word is an F bomb, no matter the conversation or tone.

[@TarawaS2000]

@@stevez.6805 I got in trouble in the civilian police academy for cussing. During my counseling the administrator asked if they allowed cussing in the Marines. Guy was a fucking dildo.

[@EikottXD]

Riggle knew what he wanted and took it by the balls. My man! Another great podcast 👍🏻

[@TB0321]

Great to hear Rob’s Marine OCS experience. I went to OCS in 1992 after having been in Marine Bootcamp 1989. Two completely different experiences to say the least. I actually got *boarded” at 6 weeks and was eventually allowed to go back into training. I got two chits (demerits) for “lack of physical courage” during hand-to-hand combat training (pugil sticks) and dropping out of a squad integrity run in which I stepped aside to vomit instead of puking in formation on the guy in front of me. Being *on-the-bubble” and not being able to fail anymore events, definitely upped the pressure level of OCS. It was like being a bushy-tailed squirrel living in a room full of rocking chairs.

[@jasoncreedfilms]

Rob Riggle is a joy to watch, especially Shark Week 2018 and 2019. He hit it out of the park with those shows.

[@pastevensonjr]

This by far is one of the best bertcast. Rob Riggle is one of my heros as a Marine.

[@robh913]

I went through Marine Corps OCS in the early '70's. It's boot camp for officer candidates. We had mustangers (former enlisted who got out and came back in as an officer candidate) in our platoon and they had been through enlisted boot camp. They all said OCS was worse. We had a DOR board and a bell. They pushed to get you to drop on request. Some couldn't hack it and they DOR'd. Others were cut. There is a high percentage of people who don't make it all the way through the program. Once you do graduate and you are commissioned, you then go to The Basic School, which is 6 months of intense training. After that, you go to you assigned specialty school. I was in artillery, so we went through 3 months of artillery training. So, it's a long time from OCS to finally being assigned to the fleet. A lot of pressure in every stage. Wouldn't trade that experience for anything.

[@harfga]

Riggle clarifies the difference between Boot Camp and OCS. Then Bert repeatedly calls it Boot Camp.

[@williamclinton2289]

Major differences between merchants marines and the corps

[@gun_ape]

Yeah but he IS letting him speak instead about himself.

[@alexanderthegreatest1781]

william clinton Am I missing something? What do merchant marines have to do with anything? Riggle was a LtCol in the Marine Corps Reserves.

[@ernstbergerbrent]

Did he still have to do boot camp first? I did army ocs and still had to do basic training.

[@JJ-nu8qi]

@thopkins22 If you are going to Ocs you will not go through boot camp. The only officers that have been to boot camp are former enlisted.

[@Juicernaut]

“You don’t want to make any mistakes, but you don’t know what the fucking rules are.” 100%

First night of OCS was much different than boot camp. They had us lined up in a big room with boxes in front of us.

[@richardannaken]

As a former DI, I KNOW for fact BOTH officer OCS and enlisted boot camp are stuck with some that barely make it or slipped by in first phase. 9 out of 10 of those are dropped in the 4 weeks of basic warrior training (Camps Lejuene/Pendleton) or whatever they call it now. The other 1 out of 10 goes sometime during their enlistment. Example I was getting ready to drop a recruit because he couldn’t do the Obstacle and confidence course and some PT stuff I was told I had dropped too many recruits already and had to keep him. THIS IS THE SAME IN ALL MILITARY BRANCHES. And if you don’t believe that look at today’s recruiting issues, THEY ARE keeping some losers now. Unless you are a LGBTQ cuz +++, then you are DEFINITELY being kept 🥸

[@wordword6039]

Well actually Riggle is a bit mistaken about boot camp. On the enlisted side. I was a DI and enlisted also then later an officer. As a DI mission was attrition.....we wanted you out, we wanted to get rid of you. The Marine Corps is pretty selective in who is able to put on the eagle, globe and anchor. For instance we would start out with 80 recruits and would graduate around 50 of the original recruits we would "pick up" maybe 10 of other recruits as Riggle may suggest as "retreads" from other platoons who were hurt etc. He is correct about officers candidate school.

[@wolfman8449]

How the hell is someone too short to fly a plane in the military. Aliens reach us all the time and them sunsaguns are 4 feet tall on a good day

Lmao like it's an amusement ride or some shit like of course you can fly if your are short you just need a raised seat or some boosters lolol

[@rvboyett]

Aircraft seats, depending on the model, have limited adjustability. If you’re too short and can’t see out of the cockpit, you’re done.

[@northofnashira2575]

The military has very little that is adjustable for the user's comfort. Adjustable things break more often than a fixed object.

Air Force has always had height requirements for pilots. You had to be at least 5'4" but no taller than 6'5". They just recently removed the minimum height requirement to allow more women to serve as pilots.
