"Making of a Marine" (1959) - Parris Island Boot Camp Documentary
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- A fascinating short documentary on the manner in which the United States Marine Corps trained its recruits in 1959 at Parris Island, South Carolina, home of the larger of the two Marine Corps Recruit Depots. Recruits are shown arriving at the base, being shorn of their hair, fitted for new uniforms, and taught military discipline and bearing. Training in hand-to-hand combat, marksmanship, close-order drill, and first aid is provided, and physical training through exercise, obstacle courses, and swimming is emphasized. Recruits who succeed in their training graduate as United States Marines.
An incredible time-capsule to the era just before the stresses of the 1960s and the Vietnam War era on the USMC.

USMC 68-71 PARRIS ISLAND CPL VMO-6 MAG 36 Quang Tri Vietnam/Futema Okinawa. It is literally impossible to explain what Marine Corps boot camp was like. Every documentary (including this one) is a warered down version. It's without doubt the biggest physical and mental challenge you'll ever expirance. I wouldn't change one thing it literally gave me the discipline and intestinal fortitude to be who I am today. I'm 74 yrs old I can still remember what Parris Island was like.
I was 9 years old when this happened in 59 in 1968 I was catching hell from the DIs..third battalion..
an error was made in this movie. What was described as the " Confidence course " was the obstacle course. I ran that obstacle course twice a day at Parris Island in 1965.
This is my father’s marines. Two tours in nam. I myself am a second generation marine. And proud to bear the title of US Marine!
They need to bring back this type of boot camp. Sadly today's boot camp has gotten weak since they allow joint male and female boot camp. It's now summer camp now...
You mean male and female in the same barracks?

SEMPER FI!!! (Semper Fidelis)
Semper fi
I remember we must of been a experiment platoon, we wore boots through out boot camp,never saw tennis shoes!!! Must have loved it after 27 years in !!!
Wow!! You can definitely see the difference between Marine recruits and recruits of other branches.
This was the best time to make a video about marines
I went through MCRD San Diego in 1961 at the age of 17. I was in receiving barracks alone for a few days since I got there a few days before Christmas. We spent all day watching football games on
New Year’s Day. It was boring. Then the next day the shit hit the fan.
These were brutal years for recruits.

Wached from Jamaica and like what I saw. Had a few family and friend who joined but never had the previlege.
I wish we would've started out with a hight & tight haircut like in this film instead of the baldy haircuts we got upon arrival... our last 3 haircuts were hight & tights... Semper Fi!!! USMC 1985-91 here..
I was 3 years old in 1959...
I was 12

Serious question: I graduated MCRD Parris Island in 1992. It felt a lot tougher than this video portrays. Did MCRD get tougher since then or was this video intended to show a less intense version than actual training at that time?
This video is pure Marine Corps propaganda. It was made to look like Parris Island was basically a summer camp.
I joined in 1965. What a hell hole for 12 weeks. Drill instructors beat the crap out of recruits. Who screwed up. Mass punishment was the norm. This is just pure propaganda.

THANK YOU FOR CONFIRMATION I WASN'T A MARINE BUT THIS SEEMED TO MILD TO ME.
Platoon 102 Jan-1959 to Apr-1959. Eight man squad drill at 09:58. The drill instructor’s voice at 10:02 is from Platoon 100.
We of C Co 2nd ReconBn 2nd Mar Div in 1958, were the “first” Marines to use Helicopters,
MCRD San Diego July-Spt 1957.
OBVIOUSLY PRE- JUNK FOOD... NOT A FAT KID AMONG 'EM
Pre hormone and chemicals being shoved into food. I don’t think Americans are just eating fast food by intense numbers but I do believe the food has been altered.
What was the point of the music played over the film? Certainly, this is all in the Public Domain by now. Especially since it was released as a 'Public Service Message' by the DoD to encourage voluntary enlistment... It's distracting hearing two music tracks over each other; I had to look to see if one of my background programs had audio playing!
October 59 and I was there! NiSan Huts in third Battalion! Until I got an infected eye. Then it was First Battalion one month later!
They missed out on Elliot’s Beach and the Gas chamber! Fun times!
MCRD San Diego June- Sept. 1975

My first hair cut only had skin.
You know it does not really matter if a man is big and muscular but it only matters if he has a cold black heart as mine is. Love my Marine Corps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Life taker and a heart breaker !!!!!!!!!
The recruits were given a towel first so they can dry their eyes from all the crying they're gonna be doing!

As I watch this video the drill instructor is mild. Like when I was at Parris. Island.
1959 hogs still move slow 😂😂😂
