U.S. Marines Recon Boat Drills

[@DavidJ222]

Bringing back memories. Semper Fi brothers.

[@Dobi8454]

C’mon boys there is literally no reason at all to one man carry a 200+ lb motor 🤦‍♂️. VA we found your disc compression was not service related.

[@johnrodriguez3870]

Thank GOD ( Father, Son, Holy Spirit) that America is Blessed with a United States Marine Corps ( USMC, Department of The Navy, 10 November AD 1775), that STILL has both Reconnaissance Marines and Marine Raiders. SEMPER FIDELIS SUPERINTENSIFIED, MARINES MAGNIFIED, ALWAYS FAITHFUL ALWAYS FORWARD!!🇺🇸🦅🗽💪

[@gunchief0811]

the GET SOME CREW! good work here excellent training Force Recon is always training and always preparing for the next potential threat. it just shows that the Navy seals don't corner the market on Night time clandestine Amphibious Sea water operations. Marine Force recon does this mission very very well. Semper Fidelis SSgt. Calhoun USMC OUT!.....

[@aoutone7462]

Lmaoo that dude is carrying the whole engine himself... why hahahah

[@DoomsdayHustle]

If you look close enough, you'll see the Recon Marine from Nava the Beast's video.

[@xdangelovidz]

The Arkham Knight I see him

[@Draftsman_MC1300]

Why do I find this so fucking awesome

[@dap5790]

The 2nd boat seemed to have issues getting off the deck because they were using / holding their paddles differently. Outboard hand high, inboard hand low on 1st boat, reversed on 2nd. Just my observation, great job guys.

[@jameswells554]

I prefer the Avon because it already has the wooden rolled decking in it; but that's just because I'm lazy, and that metal decking can cause some nasty injuries in rough seas. A cat on another Team from my Platoon shattered his femur during training that way. This was before you needed a safety brief to do a police call, of course.

HEY whats the compass pod that attaches to the tube

Wulfz lair He's referring to Nava's Q&A video with a Recon Marine. It's the same dude.

[@frankcruz8863]

That Was Awesomes 🇺🇸💪🏻⚓

[@fyaworx]

Looks cool carrying the obm by yourself until you slip or screw your back up

[@cmnieman1]

Really surprises me that they aren't wearing chem lights at all. You'd think that any training dealing with that much water in that dark of an ocean would be smart.

[@marcusmonroe2395]

If u have lights then you'll b seen. So ur gonna train like ur in combat. That's what seperate the Marine Corps from the other services.

[@colethewolfboy]

If they’re really sick they’re running IR chem lights or maybe even strobes and night vision. OTH drills are otherworldly shit.

[@mcriderjoe300]

Recon Marine is toughest in the world thinking among Korean military mania.🎉

[@blackx34]

great work

[@hugonongbri8100]

how long does it take to inflate ??

[@jtsoutdoorsandmore8136]

Does anyone know th HP of the outboard there using .

[@karimkelai960]

team working

[@markchristian787]

So was this a boat company with the MEU or division recon?

[@Klmno282]

Real action

[@Iowarail]

no compressed air on that ship???

[@jtsoutdoorsandmore8136]

I was thinking the same thing . Would make life easier for those guys .

[@jonsimmons4150]

should have co2 bottle to inflate and put out fire.

[@RamadiTaxiDriver60M]

Foot pumps…remember those days…

Black guy in the end is scared of the 2ft wave lol

And I bet you would be scared to even be in the same town as that guy

[@the-ceo-of-irony]

1:40 the i the Pixar logo be like

[@DaveSmith-cp5kj]

I actually laughed.

[@ericg102]

Foot pumps..lmao!!

[@christopherlampman8078]

That is good training as you may be in a situation where compressed air is not available (e.g. on a hostile shore). You train for all situations. Plus, equipment fails, so keeping it simple reduces dependency on tools that need constant maintenance.

[@Nica-Ra-Wata]

I was 0311 not Recon or Force Recon and we did this training a lot with 2/5...

[@jakeshepard9931]

Marine Infantry boat companies have been doing these same training ops since 1987 that I personally know of.

[@j.d.martinez153]

What years where you in man? I was in 3/5 from 93’ -97’; India company for my first pump.

That’s awesome.

[@marcionogueira7617]

Nice

[@jacobwalsh9128]

Is this man really using a foot pump for something that’s about go in the ocean lol

[@rwjazz1299]

the foot pump works, but it's slow and tedious. At the very least, they should have 4 foot pumps going simultaneously, as there were a few guys just standing around. Even better, the ship could have compressor hoses that reaches out to the ramp. Fill those tubes up super fast right to the proper pressure. I had a Zodiac Mark 3 with speed tubes for about 4 years. I took that thing into un- Godly sea conditions. Same locking floor system. I had 60 Merc. on it. It went like the dickens.

[@Klmno282]

Action désintégration

[@lancedanielle5125]

Could have used an automatic inflator like what inflatable beds use

[@HustlersAlly]

Lance Persia but what if you have to redeploy your boat somewhere else for extract?

[@jameswells554]

Lance Persia we have emergency bottles that can be used to rapidly fill the sponsons, at least partially. But usually it's done manually, if you will, via the foot pump; and guys take turns because it will smoke your bags.

[@joshuawilliamson8417]

What happens when you’re on a mission and it breaks?

[@paulhetherington3854]

This surely isn't, SNAVA!

[@jennthompson2268]

'RRAAH!

[@Jr-qo4ls]

I remember that little foot pump. I hated it. Too much work and took too long. There had to be something that could have run of the outboard mothers power for a minute or so and rapidly inflated the zodiacs, RB 15s. Just saying.

[@maineoutdoorsman677]

300 lb etec outboard right there so nut up an shut up .
