[@mikehascats26]

Abby Schmidt women pass marine training because they have LOWER STANDARDS than men. they are weaker than men. if women had the same PT standards as men, most women would fail boot camp

[@abbyschmidt4065]

The standards are going to be the same soon, personally I think they should've always been the same for women and men, and then we'll probably see a decrease in woman in the infantry. But then we'll see woman who are strong enough mentally and strong enough in the infantry. If we exclude certain people before even giving them a chance then who knows what we're missing out on.

[@Theodorej1960]

Let me tell you something, my friend. When I was in the Corps, back in '81, we had a Woman Marine who worked at the 1st FSSG motor pool at CamPen, CA. She was so strong, she could carry a bus tire under each arm. When the rubber meets the road, what it boils down to is.....Can they DO THE JOB?? If they CAN, they can carry my happy ass out of danger and away from death ANY day. Cover my ass as well as I can cover yours and we have no problem. Quit with the "girls are weak" shit. Not all of them are. It depends. It's like saying that "all men are strong and able to handle combat". One stop at a VAMC psych ward will tell you that that stupid statement is a load of shit. You take people ONE AT A TIME. CAN THEY DO THE JOB. That's all that matters. If there's any other problem, then it's YOUR problem, so deal with it.

How long is the Marine Corps School of Infantry?

[@KWhiteServantOfYHVH]

MCT: 1 month; SOI: 2 months. Non-infantry go to MCT, not SOI and everybody doesn't learn all the weapon systems, it is MOS dependent. I doubt MCT trains marines on mortars, tows, javs, etc.; I believe MCT only trains on rifles, saw, 240, grenades and M2 BMG, feel free to correct me if I am wrong, this was true in '06- '11

[@KidnapSix]

K White to correct you a little bit but MCT is a course that is part of the School of Infantry. Marines with a Infantry MOS attend Infantry Training Battalion at SOI. Both fall under SOI but different courses. But yeah you are correct on the other information pretty much.

[@ScoutSniper3124]

6:00 OK, taking into consideration that this is training, you don't send your Scouts to look at the open area of the danger crossing, you send them to Scout the far side woods, because that's where the enemy is likely to be set up. I don't recommend training that does not follow what is supposed to be done in combat, because that "simulated" action, often becomes what's mistakenly done later on, and it gets good Soldiers (and Marines) killed. SSS U.S.Army (Ret), Infantry / Sniper, multiple tours

[@arvedsandstrom1766]

Speaking as a former USMC arty guy (0811/0861), faced with a serious clearing, I would have smoked the treeline anyway - assuming you wanted to cross the clearing. Whatever infantry maneuvers you wish to conduct, I'd like obscuration. Maybe that's just me, being a former gunner. But I'd have no hesitation in putting in smoke serious 50/50 HE PD/Delay into that treeline. :-)

[@ScoutSniper3124]

Arved Sandstrom Nothing wrong with the Hammer, I qualified as an FO just for that purpose, but there are few times when higher is going to free up arty just to cross a danger zone, best case they painted the guns position for counter battery and worst case (at least in the CO's eyes) uncontrolled collateral damage. In the cold calculus of combat, risking the lives of a few Soldiers to Scout the far side is often the best option.

These days everyone goes to the School of Infantry, both men and women. After basic training my grandson was sent to S.O.I. along with all other graduates regardless of M.O.S. Everyone is in such for 1 month. Then he was sent to his M.O.S. school which was Aviation Logistics. Those whose M.O.S. is infantry stay for a much longer period and graduate from such. The motto "Every Marine a rifleman" rings true. His unit MALS 16 (Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron) is the only MALS unit to receive a combat citation. It seems they were deployed in Iraq to an airfield which had been evacuated by the Iraq Army. Not so, the enemy was still there. I asked my grandson (he was assigned to such unit much later) if they waited for the infantry Marine units to engage the enemy. According to unit history, no way. They immediately engaged the enemy and drove them out. Although his M.O.S. is viewed as a "Geek Marine" unit, every Marine is ready to engage the enemy on the battlefield.

These sights in particular utilize a fiber optic tube up to illuminate the reticle using just sunlight, they might have a battery in them too to power an internal laser to create a red dot in low light situations or at night.

[@AchillesTroi]

Roger that, we used the old fashioned "Iron" sights while I served.

[@Locutus494]

They are scopes. The Trijicon ACOG, termed RCO (rifle combat optic) in the Corps, is a 4x scope with bullet drop compensator graduated out to 800m. They are illuminated by a fiber optic ambient light collector or tritium for low light; there are no batteries or electronics. They have been standard issue now in the Corps since around 2006-2008. www.trijicon.com/na_en/products/product3.php?pid=TA31RCO-A4CP

[@robertwilson8184]

fields?

[@Riceball01]

First off, it's Corps, with an S, a Corp is short for corporation. You'd need to talk to a recruiter but you should be sign up to join Corps as early as your senior year in high school, at age 17, but you'll need to get your parents' permission first. You'll then be placed in the Delayed Entry Program and you won't actually ship out to boot camp until you graduate high school and/or turn 18. While you're in the DEP your recruiter will help prepare you for going to boot camp and you'll likely attend events with others like you, called Poolees, where you get a taste of what boot camp will be like, up to and including have real drill instructors scream and yell at you. If you really intend on joining the Corps then I wish you the best of luck. It's a life changing experience and you'll become part of something greater than you, a brotherhood that goes back 241 years. Be sure to listen to and take any advice your recruiters give you, but also, don't trust a word they say until you've signed your papers, they'll you all sorts of things to get you to join, almost all recruiters of all branches do this because they're under intense pressure to get X number people signed up a month, quarter, etc.

[@JLO2002]

Thanks I guess I have four more years to go till eighteen

[@lyndonlonzanida]

[@RichardStClair-ih1wg]

How long is ait

[@BettyWyteMMA]

its honestly really awesome seeing the integration of women into the infantry. im excited to see how great of a job they will do. semper fi

[@ReallyRyan.]

Women can't get into the infantry, even if it is open to them. Simply put, they are physically too weak to handle the carrying of the heavy gear and equipment long distances and in some cases not even able to lift it, at all. The women in the video are in the MCT.

[@HeroKeepOnMarchingOn]

That's true but some women are cable of carrying the equipment, and running 3 miles or more.

[@grantchristopher1174]

Mechanized infantry loads? Sure. Light infantry loads? Very, very few. I'm 6-3 and weigh 225 lbs. and it nearly killed me. But, I was Army airborne infantry. Most of the USMC is mech, so...

[@crazy4piehobo]

Chase Balazs women are a fuckin liability you progressive immaculate. The marine corps did a study on it. Females aren't effective learn ur shit war isn't a political agenda game

[@bootygodbleachgod5656]

Who is the Aussie addressing the graduation, and what did he say?

[@jacobfree8337]

Lew James I'm not sure but when I was active I had an enlisted Brit in my unit and we had an aussie pilot on the MEU.

[@FlashedTv]

I was there during this time

[@boydnicol]

I’m 16 and I literally just got into this shit today. I really want to do this and serve my country. I want to be in the infantry division in the marine corps. I don’t know where to begin to do that shit tho :/ any help with advice on that would go dum

[@elmachin4117]

boyd nicol idk i guess search for better jobs out in the corps if you wanna do infantry go for it you are still 16 talk to a recruiter on your senior year of high school and he will help you out. Don’t let any recruiter fuck ypu over though lol

[@dominicdaley5702]

6:58 how the hell this fool has an m16 upper and m4 lower!?!

[@Locutus494]

The Corps developed collapsible stocks for the M16. Very helpful when you're wearing body armor.

[@dominicdaley5702]

Oh i didnt know that. I guess since they swapped out all our 16s to m4s in grunt units i figured they wouldnt bother trying to make the m16 any better. Havent seen it in the fleet yet though

[@semperhigh0311]

Dominic Daley. the armory keeps some for ppl with shorter arms

[@nkprives]

They're both AR15s. Almost all parts are interchangeable. Any AR upper will work with any AR lower unless they're special snowflake parts (billet, civilian world stuff)

[@hirmahuerta7420]

Is great

[@tiffanyhanson8476]

The people saying Women can’t do infantry are the people who give me even more motivation to reach that very goal of showing I, a woman, can do exactly the opposite of what they think.

[@halosthathanglow1267]

Provem wrong then champ.

[@johntaylor4513]

That's a terrible reason to join the infantry lol...

[@jamesmitchell3496]
