When learning your weapon, especially on reloads, you need to first have a lot of practice going slow and learning the correct technique. As you learn the correct technique, you are supposed to speed up the drill to keep your accuracy. If you only train the recruits to go fast, it creates a large learning curve to complete the actions. It looks to me like they needed more slow technique style focused drills. Just my two cent.
As a former Camp Lejeune Marine grunt in the 90’s, 2/2, I will tell you that there were men that made it to the fleet that should have not made it past boot camp for various and compounding reasons.

Shot 322 for the M16A4 and practiced a good bit on tactical reloads. I'd say the best way to practice for these seemingly newer Marines in my opinion is to practice fluid and slow reloads. After constant, repetitive, and proper reloads I'd have them gradually get faster with the reloads to the point where they can do tactical reloads flawless and lightning fast.
In the military, do they call every reload a tactical reload or is there a difference between reloads like the emergency reloads these kids are practicing?

There is a very serious and very palatable malaise in American society. It feels like we just have given up. Afghanistan was really the straw that broke the camel's back.
This is what grass week usually looks like to be honest. Having people do speed load drills it is really embarrassing. Especially since you can tell most of the people in that video are likely not infantry. Can tell from the helmet since the infantry guys get the newer helmets while everyone else has the older style. The only people who touch a weapon, more than 1 time a year, are CMC's or infantry. Otherwise most of the POGs only touch their rifle once a year for ARQ.
Grass week this week looked really similar to this. Sadly most of the people running it, CMC/CMTs don't care and the few of us that do kind of get drowned out. You can always tell who cares and who doesn't, but even then most people only touch a rifle once a year.@@JamesonsTravels
And our government wants us to rely on this for protection and disarm the people because thier policies increased violent crime and fucked the global economy.
I’ve seen soldiers march on their graduation and they weren’t in step. It was sad. Compared to the Marine Corps, we get in step before the end of the forming days.
The best thing we can do now is fortify our own communities and get ready to dig in and fight because the enemy is domestic and they'll use emergencies to justify the UN to "help" the people.
Why are you ignoring the incompetence of the Corp since the 70's? Behavior and morale issues didn't magically start a few years ago. You just want an excuse to bash the young people you seem to be so jealous of.
My roommate in DI School Class 2-94 was the Sgt Major of the Marine Corps from 2019 until this past August (Sgt Major Troy Black) and he has comfirmed that not only our military bur our MARINE CORPS is *woke* and severely *compromised*
Probably because people like my husband, a MGYSGT with 26 years, was forced to retire unexpectedly in Dec of 2021, because he wouldn't take the jab. This is all by design...
Wow! If this were my unit every single one of these "soldiers" would have a weapon in their hands at all times and would run and run and run this exercise until they could manipulate the weapon in their sleep and become smooth as silk. If this is what our military has to offer , we're fucked!
even if reserves they need to spend the entire weekend with their weapon to get to know it. hopefully they never use it BUT these people are not prepared.
Tell that to your superior who may need these marines do their dayjob instead of playing grunt. If they have only once a year weapon training , what do you expect?
You train them on how to reach and feel for the mag. They do this several times. You then have them extract the mag from the carrier and have it oriented to their weapon. You then have them practice inserting the mag. Then you have them do all previous steps slowly. Don't have them rush. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. You teach muscle memory. Then you step up the speed a bit at a time. It would take an hour a day for about a week. Had a drill sergeant tell us to toughen our elbows when everyone was whining while in the prone while on the range. People who followed his advice, of banging their elbows on the ground while in the prone, didn't have problems, guys that didn't wanted elbow pads. No one wants to suffer in any part to make themselves better. They are too used to doing all of this in video games. Real life isn't that. Suffering, failure and pain are components to learning anything physical. As said by a great philosopher, "pain is a great teacher."
Yep, my grandparents used it, my mother used it, my wrestling coach said the same, my judo instructor said same, my drill instructors said same. It works really well. Humans don't like pain, so to get less pain you need to get better. But sadly the newer generations are raised to be soft so you reap what you sow.
When the DOD is focusing on DEI, SAPR, mandatory extremism training (after January 6), promoting box checkers, purging non “yes” men/women, then this is what you get. The other branches are the same way if not worse. The best defense for the US now is an armed population.
Times have changed, so has the training doctrine. If you think about it logically, especially in close distances when a few seconds could mean life or death dropping the mag on the floor and loading a new one could save you. You can always pick it up when the threat is gone.
@@kevinlewis8137uh, no. In combat, you have to keep you mags when you reload, because without mags, your rifle doesnt work. If you keep dropping mags in combat you won't have any to put more ammo in to keep fighting. Do they reach marines their rifles dont need mags to work or something? Sure, if you need to reload with enemy right in your face, drop the mag, but otherwise you need to be in the habit of retaining your mags when you reload. Mags dont grow on trees, especially not on random firebases in the middle of nowhere.
@@hamie7624There’s a time for admin reloads and there’s a time for combat reloads. You can certainly do admin reloads in combat. I’m not saying that admin reloads are exclusive to the range, they are not. But you need to understand that we are carrying at a minimum 7 magazines. When one is in close proximity to the enemy or one doesn’t have fire superiority over the enemy yet, combat reloads are the norm. When one has distance along with fire superiority from one’s fellow Marines, admin reloads will be more likely to occur. Furthermore, if one is going through magazine after magazine after magazine without the ability to pick them back up, one probably is in a fight for their lives and doesn’t have time to admin reload either. When the enemy is killed or driven off it will be the time to collect dropped mags and redistribute ammunition.
Mad dad went through basic training in Parris Island in the late 1950s not long after they shipped him off to Vietnam. He always said those guys were rushed through to get bodies in the bush for that war. But he also said you learned very quickly once you got over there. RIP.
@@artseger6891 No he went through sometime in 1958 or 59. He was an advisor the first time he went. We had advisors there as early as the 1950s. My dad was there as an advisor in 1963. He did go back again once the war got rolling. He did 3 tours. He was never drafted like most of those guys. He enlisted.

In case anyone was wondering what it meant when he said "BCG's", that's mil-speak for "Birth Control Glasses".

Of course after basic you could wear your own style as long as it was in good taste and not flashy or eccentric.
There appears to be a systematic degradation of all our fundamental foundations. Including the military. From the educational and societal institutions all the way through the military. This cannot be accidental in nature and most certainly appears to be orchestrated by design.
Rounds forward or toward the weapon in the mag pouches, always. The guys with their mags in backwards are having the most difficulty. Time to take them back to the basics of equipment setup, then get back to the actual mag change. Seems like someone would inspect their setup/gear arrangement prior to the activity.

Three young Marines were on a flight of mine. Only one was in uniform. He was totally engrossed in a video game on his phone… and when he stood up to board the plane his shirt was completely untucked. One looked like a respectable 18yo or so. The third look like he was 14yo and carried himself like bumbling Neanderthal. Just as most people were seated, the flight attendant called out over the speaker for someone who lost their military ID in the airport; it was this kid. It was a stark difference from seeing service members at the airport ten or more years ago who had such a presence of dignity.
it's not woke leadership, it's lazy leadership that doesn't care. plenty of European countries are really woke compared to US standards, yet they can keep their militaries strong and formidable. It's just US military leadership using wokeness as an excuse to put less funding into training and having to worry about less paperwork, aswell as meeting recruitment and retainment quotas, leadership doesn't care about the soldiers ability to be soldiers, it's just hitting quotas and looking good for the media. in conclusion the US military leadership is lazy, career generals not ones that actually care about the US military as a fighting force and just doing it like any other job, (there are reasons generals like MacArthur, Eisenhower and Patton were so great and it's because they actually cared and had a passion) US military is using political correctness as a crutch or excuse to be lazy and it's sad, unless the feds can enforce a huge change, it's never gonna happen, sad to watch a great organisation get ruined by shitty leadership

You mechanically do this in boot camp. Then you get to the fleet, become a POG, and don't touch another rifle for months or even years. If you don't use it, you'll lose it. Simple as that. Everyone here is overreacting in a big way.
@@chimichanga6089 Disagree! All of those Marines qualified in boot camp as basic riflemen, and at a minimum were exposed to only a few weeks of “combat” training. They are safely manipulating their weapons, just not as proficiently as an infantrymen would. S1 clerks, mechanics, and cooks aren’t drawing weapons once a week to practice speed reloads. That’s genuinely not a practical reality.
At a time of peace and with everyone having their feelings hurt, sadly this is the future of all our branches…but to know and see this in our Corps. That’s a damn shame.
Trust me we just had a competition and most Marines do not look this goofy when speed reloading. The average MTU won’t even allow the Marines to chicken wing their rifle while reloading, gotta keep heads over sight.
It's not an infantry unit. Marine Corps, in general, hasn't been focusing on firearm manipulation unless you are infantry. I've been out for 10+ years, but this looks exactly like my old unit. We took our rifles out once a year and did our qualifications.
My advice for getting better is to practice the motions slowly about 100 times. Then do them at normal speed one hundred times. Then as fast as you can one hundred times. Do this every day for a week straight. Everyday without fail same time same rhythm until you get pissed off every time you see your weapon. After that you’re competent enough to perform the basics and can’t fail or fumble while doing this. Extend this practice to a month and you’ll be so well versed you can say dream while you do it. Congratulations you’re now an expert at the reload motion while standing. It is impossible not to mess up this movement because it’s part of your muscle memory. Extend that to 12 weeks straight you will not only be an expert in this motion, you will be able to do this while tired, sick, and in several different positions to the point you need to start adding challenges to it just so you don’t nod off while doing it. In short there’s just no substitute for practice. You have to do something ten thousand times in order to be so good at it that it’s second nature. Why do you think becoming a Blackbelt in martial arts takes so damn long? There’s no short cut. Either you practice and master it or you don’t and look like…….well this.
@@thelegionisnotamused8929 I’m replying to his suggestions on how to get better. And practice begins and never ends. Simple as. If you don’t practice your skills get rusty.
In today's military, they are probably not allowed near a firearm unless they are in a specific training class on the range. They have no 'time' with their weapon because they are prohibited from touching them 99% of the time. A politically correct military throws kisses, not bullets.
@@Tony27654military personnel are, or SHOULD be trained from sun up until sun down on how to handle, operate, clean and maintain their weapons. Civilians should NOT have more firearms training than a military member on a 1 to 1 basis. Especially since we have to go to work for at least 8 hours out of our days.
Discipline in general in the military has gone down miserably and horribly. Ever since social media entered cell phones, It just went down hill real bad.
We have the air superiority and a few elite units but our weakness point will be in the lack of man power and units to supply the fight. That's where will lose. Our opponents already know this. They are going to stretch us out all around the world and cut our supply lines when our units are hyper extended in multiple places around the world.
Elite units and air power don’t win wars alone they are a force multiplier you need competent ground forces with that mostly being solid infantry. Without solid grunts you won’t accomplish major objectives in a campaign
When the moral compass of a nation is broken, then it becomes difficult to find good soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines.
There's good ones out there, they just ain't joining the service. That's what happens when you brow beat the target demographic that normally joins the service.
Why would you sacrifice your life and well-being so that the children of elites can languish for life using your money?

This is what grass week usually looks like to be honest. Having people do speed load drills it is really embarrassing. Especially since you can tell most of the people in that video are likely not infantry. Can tell from the helmet since the infantry guys get the newer helmets while everyone else has the older style. The only people who touch a weapon, more than 1 time a year, are CMC's or infantry. Otherwise most of the POGs only touch their rifle once a year for ARQ.
grass week if this was done you would get hammered. this is pretty sad to watch for the young Marines the most.
Grass week this week looked really similar to this. Sadly most of the people running it, CMC/CMTs don't care and the few of us that do kind of get drowned out. You can always tell who cares and who doesn't, but even then most people only touch a rifle once a year.@@JamesonsTravels
Even Marines ? If so, how could they be called 'Riflemen' ? WORRYSOME !
Once a year???

But at least The US Marine Corps is the most tolerant, diverse and progressive Marine Corp in the world. Well maybe apart from Royal Marines.
That's why our population needs to be well armed and proficient with firearms.
But they are training here, aren't they? You must train to get better
These kids have never touched a gun in their life they have to learn everything about firearms.
I’ve seen soldiers march on their graduation and they weren’t in step. It was sad. Compared to the Marine Corps, we get in step before the end of the forming days.
The best thing we can do now is fortify our own communities and get ready to dig in and fight because the enemy is domestic and they'll use emergencies to justify the UN to "help" the people.

You train them on how to reach and feel for the mag. They do this several times.
You then have them extract the mag from the carrier and have it oriented to their weapon.
You then have them practice inserting the mag.
Then you have them do all previous steps slowly.
Don't have them rush.
Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
You teach muscle memory. Then you step up the speed a bit at a time. It would take an hour a day for about a week.
Had a drill sergeant tell us to toughen our elbows when everyone was whining while in the prone while on the range. People who followed his advice, of banging their elbows on the ground while in the prone, didn't have problems, guys that didn't wanted elbow pads.
No one wants to suffer in any part to make themselves better. They are too used to doing all of this in video games. Real life isn't that. Suffering, failure and pain are components to learning anything physical.
As said by a great philosopher, "pain is a great teacher."
why not elbow pads?

Because you won't have time for that when it counts.
Yep, my grandparents used it, my mother used it, my wrestling coach said the same, my judo instructor said same, my drill instructors said same. It works really well.

Practice, practice, practice, & it'll all come together on the day.
The dropping the mag actually annoys me. In the army we trained to hold both mags while changing and putting the empty one in our side pocket.
That’s an admin reload, great for the range and live fire courses. Combat reloads are for when speed is paramount.
Times have changed, so has the training doctrine. If you think about it logically, especially in close distances when a few seconds could mean life or death dropping the mag on the floor and loading a new one could save you. You can always pick it up when the threat is gone.
@@kevinlewis8137uh, no. In combat, you have to keep you mags when you reload, because without mags, your rifle doesnt work. If you keep dropping mags in combat you won't have any to put more ammo in to keep fighting. Do they reach marines their rifles dont need mags to work or something?
Sure, if you need to reload with enemy right in your face, drop the mag, but otherwise you need to be in the habit of retaining your mags when you reload. Mags dont grow on trees, especially not on random firebases in the middle of nowhere.
@@hamie7624There’s a time for admin reloads and there’s a time for combat reloads. You can certainly do admin reloads in combat. I’m not saying that admin reloads are exclusive to the range, they are not. But you need to understand that we are carrying at a minimum 7 magazines. When one is in close proximity to the enemy or one doesn’t have fire superiority over the enemy yet, combat reloads are the norm. When one has distance along with fire superiority from one’s fellow Marines, admin reloads will be more likely to occur.
Furthermore, if one is going through magazine after magazine after magazine without the ability to pick them back up, one probably is in a fight for their lives and doesn’t have time to admin reload either. When the enemy is killed or driven off it will be the time to collect dropped mags and redistribute ammunition.
@@hamie7624We are in the habit of retaining magazines. We also train to drop them.

In case anyone was wondering what it meant when he said "BCG's", that's mil-speak for "Birth Control Glasses".

Rounds forward or toward the weapon in the mag pouches, always. The guys with their mags in backwards are having the most difficulty. Time to take them back to the basics of equipment setup, then get back to the actual mag change. Seems like someone would inspect their setup/gear arrangement prior to the activity.

BAM’s BCG’s WM’s definitely from my era, served 78 to 04. Navy Diver.
Three young Marines were on a flight of mine. Only one was in uniform. He was totally engrossed in a video game on his phone… and when he stood up to board the plane his shirt was completely untucked. One looked like a respectable 18yo or so. The third look like he was 14yo and carried himself like bumbling Neanderthal. Just as most people were seated, the flight attendant called out over the speaker for someone who lost their military ID in the airport; it was this kid. It was a stark difference from seeing service members at the airport ten or more years ago who had such a presence of dignity.
Saw the same at an airport, they looked like gang members until one addressed me as sergeant and asked about Lejeune. But this was in '91.
And what were you doing..?

The military leadership is woke now. I'm not sure what else we can expect.
it's not woke leadership, it's lazy leadership that doesn't care. plenty of European countries are really woke compared to US standards, yet they can keep their militaries strong and formidable. It's just US military leadership using wokeness as an excuse to put less funding into training and having to worry about less paperwork, aswell as meeting recruitment and retainment quotas, leadership doesn't care about the soldiers ability to be soldiers, it's just hitting quotas and looking good for the media. in conclusion the US military leadership is lazy, career generals not ones that actually care about the US military as a fighting force and just doing it like any other job, (there are reasons generals like MacArthur, Eisenhower and Patton were so great and it's because they actually cared and had a passion) US military is using political correctness as a crutch or excuse to be lazy and it's sad, unless the feds can enforce a huge change, it's never gonna happen, sad to watch a great organisation get ruined by shitty leadership

You mechanically do this in boot camp. Then you get to the fleet, become a POG, and don't touch another rifle for months or even years. If you don't use it, you'll lose it. Simple as that. Everyone here is overreacting in a big way.
@@rattler254this contradicts the marines motto “everyone is a rifleman” so it’s pretty embarrassing.
@@chimichanga6089 Disagree! All of those Marines qualified in boot camp as basic riflemen, and at a minimum were exposed to only a few weeks of “combat” training. They are safely manipulating their weapons, just not as proficiently as an infantrymen would. S1 clerks, mechanics, and cooks aren’t drawing weapons once a week to practice speed reloads. That’s genuinely not a practical reality.

It's not an infantry unit. Marine Corps, in general, hasn't been focusing on firearm manipulation unless you are infantry. I've been out for 10+ years, but this looks exactly like my old unit. We took our rifles out once a year and did our qualifications.
Not only did he put it in backwards, instead of releasing the bolt he extended the stock. Good god.
Are we so desperate for soldiers we're taking munchkins?
My advice for getting better is to practice the motions slowly about 100 times. Then do them at normal speed one hundred times. Then as fast as you can one hundred times. Do this every day for a week straight. Everyday without fail same time same rhythm until you get pissed off every time you see your weapon. After that you’re competent enough to perform the basics and can’t fail or fumble while doing this. Extend this practice to a month and you’ll be so well versed you can say dream while you do it. Congratulations you’re now an expert at the reload motion while standing. It is impossible not to mess up this movement because it’s part of your muscle memory. Extend that to 12 weeks straight you will not only be an expert in this motion, you will be able to do this while tired, sick, and in several different positions to the point you need to start adding challenges to it just so you don’t nod off while doing it.
In short there’s just no substitute for practice. You have to do something ten thousand times in order to be so good at it that it’s second nature. Why do you think becoming a Blackbelt in martial arts takes so damn long? There’s no short cut. Either you practice and master it or you don’t and look like…….well this.
