Its a stress shoot. The goal is to get you tired, cold/hot, maybe even hungry and thristy.... THEN see if you can effectively engage targets. Even seasoned warfighters (if done right) will "look sloppy"
@@bigc2347 this does nothing. It’s the same as wearing battle rattle to practice marksmanship. Everything is taken completely out of the context in which it was learned. You also don’t have these NCOs being forced to perform the same tasks in front of their subordinates. This was nothing more than “we’re looking like hard asses because we’re 22 years old and we have to know more than this 21 year old”. I’ve played the game on both sides. Notice that this was all Joe’s shooting and no NCOs? Last I checked, the Team Leader leads from the front. This is a very toxic leadership display and should be used as an example of how not to treat your subordinates. We had stress shoots in my generation also. We threw on a ridiculously overweight ruck and road Marched to the range, directly on to the line, to qualify. You see we actually simulated the fatigue of combat. We walked for long periods of time with heavy stuff on our back then we shot. I’ve been down range and no one has ever jumped out from around a corner and made me do push ups and degraded me. I did however have to carry heavy stuff on my back for long periods of time to have that briefly interrupted by gunfire. So this is just hazing for no other purpose than self gratification.
@@jeremiahfleming5144 that's impossible. Disrespect of an NCO by lower enlisted is a punishable offense, and this drill requires you degrade the shooters for attention. Look I've lived the 11B life and I understand the pissed off NCO. The problem with stuff like this is it has no bearing to the actual job. You raised your heart rate. There is no adrenaline. Adrenaline requires some sort of fear. If you guys are scared of doing the thing you probably do 200 times a day, ie push-ups, you need to reconsider the job. I know there was no adrenaline dump. Raising the adrenaline would call for cold heartedness that most of even the hard NCOs don't have the taste for ie make this shot or your back to the line, stuck out here until you do, etc. I'm not smashing on your guys. This is an Army wide problem.
For everyone who's not really familiar with the army/military, this is called a stress shoot. Your NCOs (sergeants) smoke the dogshit out of you to get your heart rate up and your lungs breathless, then you're to shoot at targets with your heart slamming against your rib cage. Get smoked some more and do it again. It might not look like a big deal but don't forget, they're doing this in full rattle. IOTV body armor with front, back, and side plates. That's a good 25-20lbs of extra weight on your body. You're also carrying a 7-lb M4 at all times (with a PEQ-15 and optic so it's closer to 10lbs), and not to mention an ACH on your head which isn't heavy normally but will tire your neck out when you're exerting this much. As a current infantryman, I cannot say enough how much I hate stress shoots.
MERICUH no im not lol but you don't even know how bad morale is in the army right now. These fucking leaders are the problem he's saying this is only 15 minutes that we see but you can tell by the way they half ass everything that they don't wanna be there and could care less.

Back when I was Infantry I was a true bad ass. I was tabbed with a CQRANGER tab. When i went through Airborne school I made all my jumps from the C130 with my CQ desk strapped to my waist. Even answered a few calls on the way down. When I went through Ranger school I carried my CQ desk in my ruck sack, and even set up my office out in the wood line to sign in a few visitors. Then it became time for me to start triple tabbing, which I had to get the S long tab to better myself as a soldier. When I got my long tab SHAMMER, I was so happy and filled with pride. I became the ultimate SHAMMER. Some even said I became invisible until final formation. 😂😂😂 I came from the shadows, therefore I am a shadow warrior.
Lol i got my shammer tab 7 months before I got out. My knee was busted and I had a permanent profile but I did my time and my ncos knew that so they didn't fuck with me. When we had a dumb detail like cleaning the company Ao my team leader would ask me if I needed to do anything at the soldier support center which was basically code for fuck off.
I was a double reverse Navy SEAL 3 star Army Ranger Officer staff lieutenant in JROTC and these guys aren't doing pushups correctly. (Just cause it's the internet, I will clarify that this IS, in fact, a JOKE)
I was that good in the interview they just gave me a gun and sent me the SF unit. Now I drive aeroplanes and fly tanks. Guess all that time on call of duty paid off !!!
was lucky enough to be in the platoon that got smoked so much we just stopped caring, numb to the pain some might say. God those were some loooong days.
I was in the danish marines bootcamp, and we also had these stress tests. The Sergeants are doing as they should, shouting commands and pushing the soldiers. As you can clearly hear, the cameraman, most likely leadership as well, offers a friendly form for encouragement as well, to both increase the general attitude towards the assignment, but also to help those soldiers who are falling behind and are pushing their limits to the max.
I remember in basic training someone actually said: Infantry is the most wonderfull thing in the marine core. So we all joined. Never experienced such a wonderfull lie.
Not one word is misspelled. There are multiple ways of spelling the slang word which you believe I was wrong on. Go ahead and do a Google for "pogue," pogue.
Exactly what I was thinking, POGs don't know what's up. I miss the good old days in 1st ID. The only thing we did different is not putting ear pro in, there isn't any time for that in a fire fight. Other than that some real good training.
@@analogeitYes, the body makes you breathe through the mouth because it requires more oxygen than what can be delivered through your nostrils. Forcing breath through the nostrils will make your body "think" that something is blocking the oral pathway, and then the body tries to clear it by vomiting. This is very common cause of death in kidnappings: when the mouth is covered with tape and the victims starts hyperventilating due to stress and panic, the body tries to clear the pathway. Since the mouth is covered with tape and the expulsion has nowhere to go, the victim drowns in their own vomit.
What is this?The gym?They probably showed them how to do it correctly the first time, the next is they have to do it correctly while the trainers/sgts check on them.
When I was younger I thought being infantry meant doing all this stuff doesn’t hurt. Now that I’m older I’ve realized that it hurts. And you just gotta deal with it. Football built my mental toughness. I went to relaxin Jackson. It was basically summer camp compared to football. Now I’m in college rotc working to my dream of being an infantry officer. That’s all I want out of life. To lead men into battle.
noestoyfacil because I've grown up in a military family and have gone through JROTC as well as as a kid I was seeing veterans and told stories of the courage of troops and thought if I served I'd be able to help a new generation love how they want like I have and am proud to have.
Im a Navy E5...i get paid the same if not more than the majority of these guys just to sit at a desk in air conditioning for 8 hours a day, run 3 miles total a year, and eat hot meals every day. Pride can only take you so far, but I'm happy I'm not those guys haha.
Guardian 69 Navy isn't like the army. Generally sailors work on vessels where it's really not pertinent for them to PT themselves to death. I feel sorry for ship sailors since they work some unrealistically stupid hours on top of all the collaterals one might have. I'd rather get smoked than be a surface/sub sailor.

This is a great work out plan! I wish I had joined the Military when I had the chance. Both of my parents did join the Army. My father was drafted to go to Vietnam 23rd C Company. Now I am 47yrs and approaching 48yrs old. But, this is one hell of a work out!
Been there, done that. Having a beer on the back porch watching these young boys become men brings a smile to my face. The suck is real. And it builds you. Totally understand there is a clear delineation between smoke session and live. However, during the smoke session seeing those muzzles pointed at your battle buddy just makes me cringe. That’s my 2 cents to the AAR. But kudos for smoking them before shooting. Few units do that. And as witnessed by fogged up eye pro, elevated heart rates, and general confusion.... it makes a difference. Well done. “Keep up the Fire.”
For new people who may not know. This is to keep your heart rate up and still hit the target. This is something you can also practice on you own. You don't need to be in the Military for that. Practice breathing exercises and that will help.

@@ozarkmountains4947 Do you lack reading comprehension or why do you act like a douchebag? That opinion is completely legit. When people are put into service by law, you don't always get the most motivated people around you.
I serve as a infantrymen for 11 years, when it come to marksmanship you have to train them properly not yapping your mouth, its a qualification paper target. Not a stress shoot. There's time and place to apply corrective action. This the reason why all the good leaders left the Army. And the reason why soldiers don't have any respect on there leadership. Leaders is a mentor you training soldiers to become the feature leaders, as a leader what ever you do to your team, squad will reflect on you as a leader. Set them for success.
All that equipment would fit right if they wore it right. But that's also partially the leaderships problem for not teaching them how to properly secure it.
You don't want it tight, running with all that gear is a fucking pain. You'd develop sores of it was tight because of the sweat and cloth rubbing against it constantly while you run for hours
Andrew Longauer nonsense. My kit was tight as fuck and it was great. Not literally tight but secure, all strapps and buckles tapped, and my shooting kit and admin pouch placement (my ergonomics I suppose) was on point so much my SL had me show other privates what to do when I was in. Honestly most soldiers don't give a shit. Personally, I feel looking the part is as important to someone scoping you out (like threats or civilians) as being the part. I was ocd about looking like a god damned surgical killer, and having a proper kit actually does make you a better infantryman anyways. But yeah. If some taliban ass holes are scoping you and deciding hard target or soft target, it could make the difference in whether or not they ambush you right then. And having a crooked as fuck helmet looking reatrded doesn't help either. Made sure my guys helmets was straight haha.
Watching this reminds me of when I did my military service in Switzerland, and there was one glaring difference (apart from obviously better US equipment). When a superior (NCO or officer) punished us, he did the punishment WITH us. If they ordered us to do 50 push-ups, they did the push-ups with us and counted them. If they thought we deserved to do sit-ups and planks for 10min straight, then they did it along with us. There was never any physical hazing that our superiors didn't do at the same time as us. This made us respect our superiors enormously and we also resented them less afterwards. (Also it prevents abusive punishment because if it's unrealistically hard the NCOs won't be able to do it either). It was an enormously important aspect of our discipline and hierarchy and I think every army should apply this.
The USmilitary has implemented that amongst other things to combat hazing. On bases today ncos must be also preforming some type of physical activity along side the privets, while they’re being smoked. If not it’s considered demeaning & you can find your self being charged for hazing. This range is more so an organized shoot, so the senior Ncos are providing a supervisor/ instructor billet.

I became the ultimate SHAMMER. Some even said I became invisible until final formation. 😂😂😂 I came from the shadows, therefore I am a shadow warrior.
Lol i got my shammer tab 7 months before I got out. My knee was busted and I had a permanent profile but I did my time and my ncos knew that so they didn't fuck with me. When we had a dumb detail like cleaning the company Ao my team leader would ask me if I needed to do anything at the soldier support center which was basically code for fuck off.
....I just joined the Space Force
@@suvhur Me too, I just got the new Lazer blaster and the standard issue lightsaber
Lol but who cares
Funny---
"Might help to have your bolt locked forward genius! " I laughed so hard at that 😆
When ever I have a hard day in the airforce I just watch these and it always makes me grateful for what I have
Sebastian Turner agreed. and these guys are getting paid the same as us. But all jokes aside, I appreciate our Army brothers and sisters
I was a double reverse Navy SEAL 3 star Army Ranger Officer staff lieutenant in JROTC and these guys aren't doing pushups correctly. (Just cause it's the internet, I will clarify that this IS, in fact, a JOKE)
Thank you for your service 3 star ranger Officer 2nd LT !
ChamorruWarrior I was indeed a master warrant captain delta force heavy guns trooper and my dad was a blue beret army man!
o7 thenks for service
I enlisted into the army as a O-12 and I would like to say, the infantry needs more strikers.
I was that good in the interview they just gave me a gun and sent me the SF unit. Now I drive aeroplanes and fly tanks. Guess all that time on call of duty paid off !!!
*_That ain't infantry life that's called gettin Smoked_*
I was an 88M Truck Driver and we got smoked like that during stress shooting too.
@@wdntulik2no438 We do your guys job while on Rear D at the tracks lmao. Fuckin sucks
We did this in the finnish army too.
What's the difference
Grunt life IS getting smoked
was lucky enough to be in the platoon that got smoked so much we just stopped caring, numb to the pain some might say. God those were some loooong days.
That process is always the worst... The amount of pain before the numbing takes hold.

Is that a slur for second LT?
Devolutheist yes
Okay, thanks.
he said sergeant. you can thank my very overpriced headphones lol
Battalion retention Nco watching this like "well gonna be a rough month"
BoBoThePyro HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA
Just promise the junior guys a $5000 bonus and an Australia deployment. You'll make numbers!
I was in the danish marines bootcamp, and we also had these stress tests. The Sergeants are doing as they should, shouting commands and pushing the soldiers. As you can clearly hear, the cameraman, most likely leadership as well, offers a friendly form for encouragement as well, to both increase the general attitude towards the assignment, but also to help those soldiers who are falling behind and are pushing their limits to the max.
I'm so glad to see the smoke session hasn't left the Army.
2:14 Coolest ring tone in the army

Funny how the camera man finds his voice when the sergeants aren't yelling.
Seems like a butter bar to me trying to impress SNCOs.
Yet another lost butter bar in the field. Must have lost his compass and map and just showed up to the wrong company and just started giving orders.
Exactly. Platoon leader always soft spoken. PSG putting in work as always. "Welcome to the unit you lil shits."
Imagine doing that with a SAW 😔

I remember in basic training someone actually said: Infantry is the most wonderfull thing in the marine core. So we all joined. Never experienced such a wonderfull lie.
Any 11b watching this is laughing because they've been there and know how much it sucks.
Pogues and/or people jumping on the senior enlisted: Shut up.
AnnArborIsAWhore typical, you can't even spell.
Not one word is misspelled. There are multiple ways of spelling the slang word which you believe I was wrong on. Go ahead and do a Google for "pogue," pogue.
AnnArborIsAWhore POG***
I've definitely been there lol everyone gets smoked, its just part of living that lifestyle. POG's don't really understand.
Exactly what I was thinking, POGs don't know what's up. I miss the good old days in 1st ID. The only thing we did different is not putting ear pro in, there isn't any time for that in a fire fight. Other than that some real good training.
I saw the pt stud, and like 50 normal soldiers
Always that guy who has a 6 min pace for 5 mile runs
good job boys. keep it up
Got some empty hydration systems! Make sure them boys driiiiNK WAAAHTERRRRR

It dont matter nose or mouth those ipro still get fuggy
bird birdbirdman even with sweat and steam coming off your body.
The point was for him to stop being a mouth breather
@@analogeitYes, the body makes you breathe through the mouth because it requires more oxygen than what can be delivered through your nostrils. Forcing breath through the nostrils will make your body "think" that something is blocking the oral pathway, and then the body tries to clear it by vomiting. This is very common cause of death in kidnappings: when the mouth is covered with tape and the victims starts hyperventilating due to stress and panic, the body tries to clear the pathway. Since the mouth is covered with tape and the expulsion has nowhere to go, the victim drowns in their own vomit.
@@blzahz7633 Good knowledge.
@@analogeit good technique: inhale (nose) exhale (mouth). NOT inhale(mouth) exhale(mouth) Not hard to understand.
train with your men. lead by example
Enzer0159 oh they would've smoked the fuck out of him
lmao this guy
What is this?The gym?They probably showed them how to do it correctly the first time, the next is they have to do it correctly while the trainers/sgts check on them.
thank you mr armchair general
Clearly never been in the army lol.
Dang that first guy is a work horse man. Cricket they called him I think. He was putting in work
He PTs on his own, the more you do the less painful everything else is. Plus you can take breaks when you're on your own but not unit PT
i was just making a camouflage joke but there is no one
Damn son! They got burnt
When I was younger I thought being infantry meant doing all this stuff doesn’t hurt. Now that I’m older I’ve realized that it hurts. And you just gotta deal with it. Football built my mental toughness. I went to relaxin Jackson. It was basically summer camp compared to football. Now I’m in college rotc working to my dream of being an infantry officer. That’s all I want out of life. To lead men into battle.
fuuuuuck this what I signed up for?
lmaooo!
hell yeah. im so ready to die from this.

Sumner god damn Perez
haven't seen a smoking like that in a while
look dog lets just agree that these dudes were getting the shit smoked out of them and unless you're a pt stud you'd be sucking too
Carlos Moreno What did they get Smoked for ?
Matthew Farley do marines even think before they write their stupid comments?
Dr.Hugo Strange they didn’t, it’s a stress shoot, not a smoking
This has to be Fort Carson, 4th ID... New Privates...
+Pete N I think its 2nd infantry division, look 2:09
O wait, you might be right, but there are two signs
4th ID for sure. probably just gettin smoked for fuckin up. It's normal. They'll learn.
4th for sure.
4th ID. The four points looking patch is the distinct symbol of the 4th
My football coach was a marine, and he made us do these every practice. Now I know where theses exercises come from.

@@northernninety7Okay Perez
oof
still can't wait to enlist
hahaha why?
noestoyfacil because I've grown up in a military family and have gone through JROTC as well as as a kid I was seeing veterans and told stories of the courage of troops and thought if I served I'd be able to help a new generation love how they want like I have and am proud to have.
Dog yah just cause I don't feel like renaming my RUclips account means nothing so shut the fuck up
lol
You have an attitude problem, so go fuck yourself and don't join. Little shits like you are the reason why most people want to leave the army.
Im a Navy E5...i get paid the same if not more than the majority of these guys just to sit at a desk in air conditioning for 8 hours a day, run 3 miles total a year, and eat hot meals every day. Pride can only take you so far, but I'm happy I'm not those guys haha.
A E so you dont PT in the morning. At all? Reserved shit idk
Guardian 69 Navy isn't like the army. Generally sailors work on vessels where it's really not pertinent for them to PT themselves to death. I feel sorry for ship sailors since they work some unrealistically stupid hours on top of all the collaterals one might have. I'd rather get smoked than be a surface/sub sailor.
You’ll also never see combat ever most infantry guys actually wanna do shit
I smell some fobbit pogy shit in here
@@cjb5192 who fucking cares. You'll still end up getting out with no future job prospects if you stay in infantry or any other combat MOS. "Waiting" for a call for a civil servant job "Police, Firefighter" is not a job.
Have the troops yell and shout throughout, it clears the body and the mind. You will see better results out of them on everything.
I got nothing but respect for these guys.
Don’t join thinking it’s gonna be like your video games:- call duty or Rambo shit haha. Join because you want to be better 🧐 lol
Easy to watch not easy to do

I felt like i was sucking just watching lmao i hate getting smoked like this
haha better my ass
Facts..You won’t see a real comment like this one haha
@@wendakaoronera9123 Yeah, I don't think it's gonna make me better. I mostly do it cause... why not, ya know? No true purpose. Except... maybe flying is always a dream so I joined the Air Force... got kicked out a year later.
This is a great work out plan! I wish I had joined the Military when I had the chance. Both of my parents did join the Army. My father was drafted to go to Vietnam 23rd C Company. Now I am 47yrs and approaching 48yrs old. But, this is one hell of a work out!
Cricket is the best! Keep going cricket! you can do it!
Been there, done that. Having a beer on the back porch watching these young boys become men brings a smile to my face. The suck is real. And it builds you. Totally understand there is a clear delineation between smoke session and live. However, during the smoke session seeing those muzzles pointed at your battle buddy just makes me cringe. That’s my 2 cents to the AAR. But kudos for smoking them before shooting. Few units do that. And as witnessed by fogged up eye pro, elevated heart rates, and general confusion.... it makes a difference. Well done. “Keep up the Fire.”
For new people who may not know. This is to keep your heart rate up and still hit the target. This is something you can also practice on you own. You don't need to be in the Military for that. Practice breathing exercises and that will help.
Ahh, I remember these days... lol not me being smoked, but me watching Joes getting smoked from 12,000 ft in the air from my POG UAV shelter lol.
Shit I’m still a grunt I’ve got 3 years in already and I re enlisted lol damn I’m dumb asf but whatever I guess all I know is that I’m reclassing as soon as I get a 110 gt score
Damn almost everyone in this comment section claims to know what this is like. Can’t find one person who doesn’t hmmm🤔🤔
Anthony Mars hi
Anthony Mars idk what it’s like
Or the people who don't know decided not to chime in... this could very well be a confirmation bias... or the people who saw this clip were mostly who have experienced this, idk how youtube algorithm works in this case...
Hmm maybe the audience are active or ex service? Wonder why that would be?
Don't have a clue how hard ,I will next year though
Have to say this is a lot easier in a professional army, with volunteers. It's a complete other story with conscription, in Finland for example..
Nobody gives a fuck about finland
@@ozarkmountains4947 Do you lack reading comprehension or why do you act like a douchebag? That opinion is completely legit. When people are put into service by law, you don't always get the most motivated people around you.
Finland isn't real
Why does the sgt at 6:06 sound like the verminator from Over the Hedge?😂
LMAOOOOOO
Being a generator mechanic doesn't sound so bad anymore. I'm proud of my job but damn I give these guys the most respect! HOOAH!
I serve as a infantrymen for 11 years, when it come to marksmanship you have to train them properly not yapping your mouth, its a qualification paper target. Not a stress shoot. There's time and place to apply corrective action. This the reason why all the good leaders left the Army. And the reason why soldiers don't have any respect on there leadership. Leaders is a mentor you training soldiers to become the feature leaders, as a leader what ever you do to your team, squad will reflect on you as a leader. Set them for success.
Christ, give them equipment that at least won't sag and fall apart
All that equipment would fit right if they wore it right. But that's also partially the leaderships problem for not teaching them how to properly secure it.
You don't want it tight, running with all that gear is a fucking pain. You'd develop sores of it was tight because of the sweat and cloth rubbing against it constantly while you run for hours
Andrew Longauer nonsense. My kit was tight as fuck and it was great. Not literally tight but secure, all strapps and buckles tapped, and my shooting kit and admin pouch placement (my ergonomics I suppose) was on point so much my SL had me show other privates what to do when I was in. Honestly most soldiers don't give a shit. Personally, I feel looking the part is as important to someone scoping you out (like threats or civilians) as being the part. I was ocd about looking like a god damned surgical killer, and having a proper kit actually does make you a better infantryman anyways. But yeah. If some taliban ass holes are scoping you and deciding hard target or soft target, it could make the difference in whether or not they ambush you right then. And having a crooked as fuck helmet looking reatrded doesn't help either. Made sure my guys helmets was straight haha.
hooah
Nick Rodriguez 100% accurate
Why is the sky blue? GOD loves the infantry. (If you don't know what I am talking about you were not in the Army) love you guys!
I stopped saying that after god made us embrace the suck a little too much at benning
Allah akbar
30th AG, amirite?
I leave in 8 days this is going to suck but I'm excited !!
How are you dude
Terrance Little SHOULDVE joined the marines
How was 30th
Terrance Little how is your career going as a young pfc
Did he make it?
Perez certainly looked like he wanted to quit, but certainly didn’t. Love me some hazing on the boots
As a retiree, I remembered that. General Patton said the more you sweet I training the less you'll bleed in combat.
Watching this reminds me of when I did my military service in Switzerland, and there was one glaring difference (apart from obviously better US equipment).
When a superior (NCO or officer) punished us, he did the punishment WITH us. If they ordered us to do 50 push-ups, they did the push-ups with us and counted them. If they thought we deserved to do sit-ups and planks for 10min straight, then they did it along with us. There was never any physical hazing that our superiors didn't do at the same time as us.
This made us respect our superiors enormously and we also resented them less afterwards. (Also it prevents abusive punishment because if it's unrealistically hard the NCOs won't be able to do it either).
It was an enormously important aspect of our discipline and hierarchy and I think every army should apply this.
If you think an IOTV is better equipment. Then my god you guys have dog shit, lol.
This isn't a punishment. Its a stress shoot.
The USmilitary has implemented that amongst other things to combat hazing. On bases today ncos must be also preforming some type of physical activity along side the privets, while they’re being smoked. If not it’s considered demeaning & you can find your self being charged for hazing.
This range is more so an organized shoot, so the senior Ncos are providing a supervisor/ instructor billet.
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT 2ND GUYS FORM 1:20 😂😂😂
perez shoulda added some socks in the front of his ACH, keep it from falling forward on his eyepro.
Lmaoooo
Holy shit, even tho ive never done that, that looks easy, but in reality thats hard as fuck, id probably not even last 3 minutes.
