I brought back memories from when I went through it and graduated, so yeah, I teared up a bit. I still remember everything from there and after when I went to Seabee A-school afterwards.
I went to Navy bootcamp back in 2000. The most confusing part of training (and the time I got yelled at the most) happened during battle stations. There was a point where I thought I had cut my hand, so I simply looked at it to see if I had and it turned out that I hadn't. And whew did I get yelled at for that. The RDC got in my face and started yelling and demanded to know why I had looked at my hand. I just said that I thought I had cut it. So then the RDC asked if it was cut and I said no. This pissed off the RDC, who then promptly asked me then why the hell was I looking at my hand. To this day I've never been so confused in my life.
Congrats to all of the seaman graduates. You all deserve those uniforms. Although I don't know any of you, I feel extremely proud of you. Thank you Hands Down for an excellent look at boot camp. Well done.
My best friend failed Battle Stations because his team kept fucking up ex: didn't check the door for heat, some people feel asleep in the head etc. But he was able to re-take Battle Stations with another Division and ended up passing the second time, then graduated. Crazy. He kept saying " 1 team 1 fight, one person fails, we all fail"
I can watch this over and over. I will never know what my son went through for 8 weeks, the tears, fears but what I do know is the change. I noticed it immediately in the tone of his voice. My son left January 2018 and graduated bootcamp March 30th 2018, the look of pride on his face I can't explain. I am beyond proud of my son #HOOYAH #U.S.NAVY #NAVYMOM #GONAVY #MYSON 🇺🇸⚓🇺🇸⚓💙
I love how you sign a page 13 stating you CAN NOT mention or show anything about Battle Stations...and here’s the Navy shredding that piece of paper in front of us
I remember watching bootcamp graduations before I joined I was like wow it's something great... 2 years in I'm seeing this lmao they are in for a rude awakening 😂😂 it's just sad they leave with all that motivation and ambition but it gets torn down by salty sailors who lost their motivation and dreams for the navy years ago... I watch these videos so I can remember why I joined and that fire for greatness can be achieved dont let no one take it from you... Hooyah Navy
To all those who have served and are currently serving in the US Navy Thank you so much for your service dedication and sacrifice to our country Its because of people like you our country is free and safe God bless you all
Don't worry. He will seem different when you first see him again, but the young man you know will still be in there and your personality and individuality comes back to the surface after training. He will grow into a better version of himself. You provided the solid and beautiful foundation and the Navy will build upon that. Bless you and your family.

HMM TOMMOROW HUHH THIS WAS TEN MONTHS AGO NOW ITS 3/11/18 LYER
My son is there right now he left for boot camp June 6th 2019 him being there and we can't find out how he is doing is nerve wracking, he was so anxious to enlist and be a sailor and to fight for his country I'm so proud of him!
My baby girl will be going to boot camp very soon. As I watched all these videos I was left myself with a sense of pride and I was as proud of everyone as if they were my own child. I am so proud and excited to call my daughter a U. S. SAILOR!!!!
Petty Officer Sperry was my RDC for Sea Cadet RT and he really is no joke he expected the best out of us and it made me a better person for it and I can't wait for Navy RT after I graduate! BZ Sailors!
Dang. Nice job people who was in 006. I was in 003. There was no way of getting honor div for us. Which division was is that got desert on the second to last day or something?
I went through naval boot camp up in great lakes in the early 80`s. Every thing was the same yet different (weird looking racks) until day 4 when a really mellow senior chief came into our barracks . He asked politely if anyone was in band or choir in high school. I raised my hand because I played trumpet. He took me to his office with around 3 dozen other recruits and auditioned to make sure I could actually play. No problem I was 4th chair trumpet in a band with around 50 trumpets so I nailed it. Only 4 other trumpets passed including a recruit who joined the navy as musician( I was a machinist mate nuke) . I got moved to a different division of all recruits who played instruments. There were around 12 total of us in my new division and it was chill . We still had to pass all the physical tests,swimming and that awful gas chamber thing, but spent most of our time learning and practicing music for the graduation pass and review ceremony. Never held a gun or fired one (except for a photo session for some sort of year book kind of a thing). They called us triple threat and since we had a navy musician our CC rarely was around.
So incredibly proud of all these young people. Makes me even more proud to be American when I see so many people from different races and ethnic backgrounds working together to serve this country. Not only the Navy but all branches. Thank you for your service.
First, Congrats Shipmates! You really *do* deserve those ball caps! So excited to have you out in the fleet! Secondly, Thank you so much All Hands, for doing such a brilliantly done documentary with great honesty and integrity as _real_ boot camp deserves! BZ to both Sailors and All Hands! P.S. Battle Stations looks so much more impactful on a mock ship than it did 20 yrs ago when we ran around the base going station to station.
Battles stations was much harder back in 2006, we had to run to each area for every test, I still remember the circles we ran waiting for stragglers to catch up. I enjoyed this series, took me back to a lot of memories I forgot. Congrats to all the new sailors and all those joining the greatest navy in the world. -USN Veteran HM3
I'm bawling like a baby watching this! My husband leaves in a few weeks for basic. He's 34, we have 3 beautiful kids and I couldn't be more proud of him for following his dreams! I cannot wait to see him graduate and our new journey to begin 🇺🇸 💙 God bless 🙏🙌
Battle stations for me was super bowl Sunday in 2005. It was rainy and unusually warm for a February night in Chicago. Back then you had to run across base doing different task. Glad they do it all in one building now. Makes way more sense.
I’ve been in the navy going on 2 years and man, this was motivating as hell. I loved this series and it reminds me of what I had to go through to be where i am now. I honestly struggled through boot camp, but I made it. And this episode, seeing the graduation and then hearing “liberty call” and everyone hugging, I got a lil teary eyed lol, it gave me chills and it brings back memories. Hooyah Navy
Glad you made it, Q. Don't let the shitbags and the gossip hens get you down. Bust ass, make rank, and show these boys, what us, female sailors can really do!
I think it would be interesting to see a similar style documentary on Navy OCS. Even though I am on the green side (USMC) I can still appreciate everything the young men and women go through to accomplish their goals. EDIT: I want to also make sure I say how much I enjoyed this series. I actually looked forward to the episodes dropping every week.
I was in for 9 years but got out at EAOS to take care of my sick and elderly parents. They needed me more than the Navy did. My folks have long since passed but now I volunteer to help disabled veterans. That is a battle station of it’s own.
I love how the changed their title from “recruit” to “navy sailor” I love all of you all; thank you all for who will soon serve our country. I love and appreciate all of you and what you have done to keep me in this country ❤️thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😭
Im so proud of this people! Like I wanna hug and give them all the time to experience the things that they wanna see for the past 8 weeks. Hoo Yah! Navy!
Now I get it...they make it so HARD at the beginning to see if u will give up under pressure...afterwards you just GLIDE and SING along...life lessons for me💃💃💃💃😘😘
I have to say, that as a former Marine, I have nothing but the greatest respect for our "ugly cousins". ;0) Once I had the opportunity to work with them, it was a privilege to have done so. There was not one moment wherein I felt that those Sailors weren't professionals or didn't know what they were doing. To that and this series I say... "Hoo-YAH Navy!"
Goodness while I have no urge or want to be in the navy, I am so thankful that these sailors do and have done so well. thank you for your future service, God bless.
Fantastic! There were couple faces at the beginning that I'm willing to bet never made it through. Simply because of the attitude. Bad attitude toward authority and Navy don't go together. Proud of the ones who did.
I did my 20USN. Loved bootcamp in Sandiego Ca. 1985-2005. Would not trade my time for anything! It's what you make it! So many opportunities to better yourself! Great school's and see the world and pretty good pay! Yes there are up's and down's in anything in life! CS1(AW/NAC). David J. Henry. Go Navy!!! Yes absolutely great food!!!
That was another excellent episode, and the happy ending. Or just the beginning! Thanks to All Hands for providing this accurate picture of boot camp. It will discourage people who should not join the military, and inspire those who have the fitness needed to get through training. Congratulations for a great job!
Wow things have changed,, since 1972 boot camp. But I am proud of all you who have passed a very tough boot camp. Here's a note,,,I never used CPR training until 4 months after I got out the Navy. Go figure, but I was well taught and still prepared. Learn well and serve the Best Navy in the World. Go Navy!
That is a great series I sat in bed watching that all day I feel so happy for all of the recruites that we’re able to pass three the hard frustrating emotional times at boot camp so good on you all
True but I think if it was simplified down to the most popular rate or the hardest rate to qualify for, along with only covering a certain portion of it, sort of like an "A-School Teaser" idea then they'd have no problem getting it done
Caos The hardest A school? So nuke school? No one would watch a bunch of dorks studying nuclear physics for 16 hours a day and then contemplating suicide later.
Congratulations to each of you. Thank you for putting your life on the line to keep America safe. And thank you All Hands for this wonderful documentary. Would you consider doing similar series for the Army, Air Force, and Marines?
watching this I cried, alot. I'm so happy for all the graduating recruits. Good luck with your next steps in being a sailor! Thank you for your service.❤
Since my son joined the boot camp in Great Lakes, I have full understanding of what sacrifice it takes for our sailors to become the "silent defenders" of our country. Let's keep them all in our prayers everyday.
i think this should become a yearly series. when future recruits and U.S. sailors look back 5-10- maybe even a 100 years from now it would be nice if you could look up the year of your enlistment and see how much you and the navy has grown.
Battle Stations, I'll never forget that night. One of the longest nights of my entire life. You would think by the end of it you're ready to drop dead on the spot from sleep deprivation, but actually I felt really good the next morning when it was over
Battlestations is different now then when I completed it back in 2005. We ran everywhere across the base, kneeling every time before and after each station. My knees were so worn out from running and kneeling, I could barely walk after we were done. I miss the Navy. Wish I could go back.
I pushed recruits at Great Lakes from late 94 to 98 Battlestations was done starting in the middle of the night, and we, as RDC"s had to double time with the recruits all around the base to various buildings and events. Could never figure out why we had to run with them, they are expected to be self sufficient at this point, with RPOC as their leader. Different Navy these days I guess, one building for most events? Kudos for making it through!!!
I ran those battle stations in 2006, few years later I heard they brought in the ship that was done all in one spot. Nothing like running all night in-between each event. Hooyah!
I am currently going through the application process and had no idea what to expect - thanks to you guys, now I know and can be better prepared for what lies ahead. Thank you.
If I was 50 years younger ...I'd join the military....There is no more of a fellow ship Than that of military personnel. Very very glad I could watch this video....Thank you for uploading it.....
Good to see the teamwork concept in play and as you can see the Navy has eight weeks to remove individuality, foster a team method and graduate.... I graduated on a Friday and spent the next week “out processing”. Turning in gear, setting up transportation to schools etc.....
Never been so proud for people I don't even know
I literally cried!!
Same!!
I brought back memories from when I went through it and graduated, so yeah, I teared up a bit. I still remember everything from there and after when I went to Seabee A-school afterwards.
I almost cried
Me too I cried when they finally put on their cap which says NAVY
The first half of boot camp they tear you down the second half they rebuild you up
I graduated with this division
Did you sign a page 13 about battlestations?
Michael Allen-Scott Rogers yep can’t discuss anything about it
Michael Allen-Scott Rogers hardest thing about battle stations is staying
Yep. That's what I remember. I'm a third class.
Michael Allen-Scott Rogers yeah I’m just an Airman apprentice rn, and I’m still trying to strike a rate
I went to Navy bootcamp back in 2000. The most confusing part of training (and the time I got yelled at the most) happened during battle stations.

This pissed off the RDC, who then promptly asked me then why the hell was I looking at my hand. To this day I've never been so confused in my life.
lmao this made me laugh too hard
You have just confused me sir
Endrank luvs da 4 loko did you pass tho?
im not crying youre crying
Not crying, blubbering at my desk LOL
Those damn onion ninjas are at it again
You're godamn right i am!!
I know!
*you’re
Damn I’m motivated
Fkin facts
Motivated motivated motivated are you dedicated dedicated dedicated dedicated
Congrats to all of the seaman graduates. You all deserve those uniforms. Although I don't know any of you, I feel extremely proud of you. Thank you Hands Down for an excellent look at boot camp. Well done.

You can still see how tired they are at the end.
It must be really tough.
I can watch this over and over. I will never know what my son went through for 8 weeks, the tears, fears but what I do know is the change. I noticed it immediately in the tone of his voice.

My son is there right now he graduates August 9th 2019 I'm one nervous mom I feel anxious a lot not knowing is the hardest
Wouldn’t it stink to go all the way through boot camp then fail the final assessment?
Welp. I guess that page 13 we all had to sign saying “don’t talk about battlestations or else” is null and void.
i was thinking the same thing. page 13 meant nothin
krerica smith honestly yeah
Seriously. I never saw the ship or inside until I went through myself. I can't believe they're showing it
I was asking myself the same thing.
yup i guess bye bye tradtions
I love how you sign a page 13 stating you CAN NOT mention or show anything about Battle Stations...and here’s the Navy shredding that piece of paper in front of us
Dude CNN did a damn News Story on it a couple of years ago.
Why is it that big of a deal? Im not trying to offend you, I'm genuinely curious
m a l d i v e s 🌙 they probably just want it to be like the real thing, something you can’t prepare for
I had the same thought when I clicked on the video and saw them talking about and showing Battle Stations
I remember watching bootcamp graduations before I joined I was like wow it's something great... 2 years in I'm seeing this lmao they are in for a rude awakening 😂😂 it's just sad they leave with all that motivation and ambition but it gets torn down by salty sailors who lost their motivation and dreams for the navy years ago... I watch these videos so I can remember why I joined and that fire for greatness can be achieved dont let no one take it from you... Hooyah Navy
That is true. Demotivating Sailors since .......
So true. I remember this excitement .. gone within the first 2 months in the fleet
Hooyah
# Jayszwone I’m in bootcamp
Fuck the fleet, don't let fuckers stop your advancement. Did twenty in the Nav myself.
To all those who have served and are currently serving in the US Navy Thank you so much for your service dedication and sacrifice to our country Its because of people like you our country is free and safe God bless you all
My son leaves home today. Boot camp starts tomorrow... 9/11/18
Marcie Brennan he’s gonna do great!! This video series really is how it is. It’s crazy they filmed it. I graduated shortly after this division did!
He's in good hands!
Don't worry. He will seem different when you first see him again, but the young man you know will still be in there and your personality and individuality comes back to the surface after training. He will grow into a better version of himself. You provided the solid and beautiful foundation and the Navy will build upon that. Bless you and your family.
HMM TOMMOROW HUHH THIS WAS TEN MONTHS AGO NOW ITS 3/11/18 LYER
Alan Hoang what
I cried a little for Ortiz because he has to face Meridian base. Be strong sailor and let not the boredom consume you!
Nullveer what’s up with meridian? I’ll have LS school there
@@cameronhernandez7823 it is going to be a sucky base
There's nothing up with Meridian, that's the point.
100 degree weather everyday, and mustering 4 times a day standing around being bored as fuck lmao
I’ll be in meridian for AZ.... I’m so excited 😆
My son is there right now he left for boot camp June 6th 2019 him being there and we can't find out how he is doing is nerve wracking, he was so anxious to enlist and be a sailor and to fight for his country I'm so proud of him!
God bless these people I thank them for their service.

Graduated almost 4 years ago and wow this gave me flashbacks. Probably one of my proudest moments yet.
Petty Officer Sperry was my RDC for Sea Cadet RT and he really is no joke he expected the best out of us and it made me a better person for it and I can't wait for Navy RT after I graduate! BZ Sailors!
@BRYCE KOWALSKI Bravo Zulu shipmate
BRYCE KOWALSKI 006 was always super motivated because of that one staff cadet
Damn sea cadets always eating our chow before we got down to eat. Always taking our pb&j and good selections 🤣🤣
Lucifurian66x we where obnoxiously loud, and left only the fish behind for you guys lol
Dang. Nice job people who was in 006. I was in 003. There was no way of getting honor div for us. Which division was is that got desert on the second to last day or something?

Me too can't wait
Me too, I have school in the morning but I am up watching videos.
Best of luck with your endeavors from an old Army Sergeant
Yeah me too
Battles stations was much harder back in 2006, we had to run to each area for every test, I still remember the circles we ran waiting for stragglers to catch up.

At 1:28 Petty Officer: And the next time i see you- you'll be Sailors.
1:30 that girl smile face. I smiled too.

An OCS documentary is in the works
I feel proud that they feel proud of themselves. Brought me to tears too.
I RET from one of the "other" branches and this Navy series was far and away the best I've seen so far...
What made you decide on the Navy?
I got emotional when they finally got their Navy hats, so proud of them 😭
Absolutely loves the series, I would rewatch a 100 times. I really really hope there will be more of this in the future. Great job 👌🏼
FANTASTIC STORYTELLING!! Well done DMA and RTC!
I'm so proud of them
HOO YAH NAVY!
HOO YAH
i’m going into the air force, but this series touched my whole soul. i cannot wait to serve.
Drowning in tears is the best feeling.
I was in for 9 years but got out at EAOS to take care of my sick and elderly parents. They needed me more than the Navy did. My folks have long since passed but now I volunteer to help disabled veterans. That is a battle station of it’s own.
My sister's husband graduated from this boot camp. It's great to see others following his steps.
You can actually see the difference on them before they got there and after graduation.
It's been 16 months since my son graduated boot camp, this still makes me bawl. LOL Congratulations Sailors!
I love how the changed their title from “recruit” to “navy sailor” I love all of you all; thank you all for who will soon serve our country. I love and appreciate all of you and what you have done to keep me in this country ❤️thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😭
Remember when they made us sign a Page 13 while going through saying not to talk about BST-21? haha I love it. Greatest day.
Aww I'm so happy I'm crying
7:31 what my corn dog sees at 3am from inside the microwave
I’m so proud of these soldiers
Santiago sailors as they are in the Navy. Soldiers are in the army
Im so proud of this people! Like I wanna hug and give them all the time to experience the things that they wanna see for the past 8 weeks. Hoo Yah! Navy!
Now I get it...they make it so HARD at the beginning to see if u will give up under pressure...afterwards you just GLIDE and SING along...life lessons for me💃💃💃💃😘😘
I have to say, that as a former Marine, I have nothing but the greatest respect for our "ugly cousins". ;0) Once I had the opportunity to work with them, it was a privilege to have done so. There was not one moment wherein I felt that those Sailors weren't professionals or didn't know what they were doing. To that and this series I say... "Hoo-YAH Navy!"
damn i felt those emotions
Thanks AH for making these. For those of you about to enlist or ship out, I look forward to seeing you all in the fleet.
went to navy bootcamp back in 2000, the time has flown by. good times with great friends to this day from the navy.
40 years ago I was there and I still feel the greatest feeling of graduating GL. God bless the Navy
Goodness while I have no urge or want to be in the navy, I am so thankful that these sailors do and have done so well. thank you for your future service, God bless.
So proud to say my son is a navy recruit. I love watching these videos and cannot wait till graduation. Navy Strong!
Fantastic! There were couple faces at the beginning that I'm willing to bet never made it through. Simply because of the attitude. Bad attitude toward authority and Navy don't go together. Proud of the ones who did.
I did my 20USN. Loved bootcamp in Sandiego Ca. 1985-2005. Would not trade my time for anything! It's what you make it! So many opportunities to better yourself! Great school's and see the world and pretty good pay! Yes there are up's and down's in anything in life! CS1(AW/NAC). David J. Henry. Go Navy!!! Yes absolutely great food!!!
0:40 OOOOHHH WHO LIVES IN A PINEAPPLE UNDER THE SEA? SPINGBOB SQUAREPANTS😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Over_cK Gaming lmfaoooo
now I understand why they need to yell at the recruits. it's because they need pressure,pressure makes them discipline. awesome!
That was another excellent episode, and the happy ending. Or just the beginning! Thanks to All Hands for providing this accurate picture of boot camp. It will discourage people who should not join the military, and inspire those who have the fitness needed to get through training. Congratulations for a great job!
Wow things have changed,, since 1972 boot camp. But I am proud of all you who have passed a very tough boot camp. Here's a note,,,I never used CPR training until 4 months after I got out the Navy. Go figure, but I was well taught and still prepared. Learn well and serve the Best Navy in the World. Go Navy!
This makes me want to go into a branch of the military🇺🇸good job guys and thank you for your service👍😭🇺🇸❤️🔥💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👏👏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
That is a great series I sat in bed watching that all day I feel so happy for all of the recruites that we’re able to pass three the hard frustrating emotional times at boot camp so good on you all
*tears all over the place*
Congrats!
A documentary similar to this for A-School would be an awesome subject too I think
That would require a whole lot of videos since there's 100s of rates and each a school is different
True but I think if it was simplified down to the most popular rate or the hardest rate to qualify for, along with only covering a certain portion of it, sort of like an "A-School Teaser" idea then they'd have no problem getting it done
I can only speak for myself here, but the IT A-School was pretty boring. LOL
Caos The hardest A school? So nuke school? No one would watch a bunch of dorks studying nuclear physics for 16 hours a day and then contemplating suicide later.
That would be boring af. All we do is study, eat, stand watch, and sleep lol
I started watching these when my husband left for Navy bootcamp and now hes half way done!
That one Drill Instructor at the beginning is so cool
Hoo haa
*HOO HAH HOO HAH HOO HAH!*
Much love to the MC's that produced this. I myself will be one as well when I ship out in June. Hooyah Navy.
Thanks to all who serve. Our freedom rests in your hands!
Congratulations to each of you. Thank you for putting your life on the line to keep America safe. And thank you All Hands for this wonderful documentary. Would you consider doing similar series for the Army, Air Force, and Marines?
watching this I cried, alot. I'm so happy for all the graduating recruits. Good luck with your next steps in being a sailor! Thank you for your service.❤
00:26 he tryna day “Honey WWWHHEEREEEESSS MY SUPER SUIT”
Can’t wait to meet some of them. I’m over in Japan right now and watching this reminds me when I went through boot camp 2 years ago
Did you make 3rd yet?
saraiv2017 I wish. My advancement percent is fucking shit. Last cycle it was barely 10%
Since my son joined the boot camp in Great Lakes, I have full understanding of what sacrifice it takes for our sailors to become the "silent defenders" of our country. Let's keep them all in our prayers everyday.
I can't wait for the opportunity!
Just went through this a week ago. All what i went through feels like dream already. My life's changed! HooYaa Navy
i think this should become a yearly series. when future recruits and U.S. sailors look back 5-10- maybe even a 100 years from now it would be nice if you could look up the year of your enlistment and see how much you and the navy has grown.
Battle Stations, I'll never forget that night. One of the longest nights of my entire life. You would think by the end of it you're ready to drop dead on the spot from sleep deprivation, but actually I felt really good the next morning when it was over
you was one of them ? where u at now
Congratulations!!!!! I am so proud of them strangers!
This was such a well done, wonderful series. Thank you for your service and congratulations!
That is so Awesome.Thank You to all of you guys and gals for protecting us!
Battlestations is different now then when I completed it back in 2005. We ran everywhere across the base, kneeling every time before and after each station. My knees were so worn out from running and kneeling, I could barely walk after we were done. I miss the Navy. Wish I could go back.
A lot of respect to the US Navy hard work pays off congrats you guys earned my respect. ~from a Belgian sailor
Watching this transformation was beautiful man
I pushed recruits at Great Lakes from late 94 to 98 Battlestations was done starting in the middle of the night, and we, as RDC"s had to double time with the recruits all around the base to various buildings and events. Could never figure out why we had to run with them, they are expected to be self sufficient at this point, with RPOC as their leader. Different Navy these days I guess, one building for most events? Kudos for making it through!!!
I ran those battle stations in 2006, few years later I heard they brought in the ship that was done all in one spot. Nothing like running all night in-between each event. Hooyah!
The best feeling ever. I feel so proud of them
I am currently going through the application process and had no idea what to expect - thanks to you guys, now I know and can be better prepared for what lies ahead. Thank you.
If I was 50 years younger ...I'd join the military....There is no more of a fellow ship
Than that of military personnel.
Very very glad I could watch this video....Thank you for uploading it.....
Good to see the teamwork concept in play and as you can see the Navy has eight weeks to remove individuality, foster a team method and graduate.... I graduated on a Friday and spent the next week “out processing”. Turning in gear, setting up transportation to schools etc.....
Wow.... Great series congrats to all the sailors. Soon ill be in those shoes.

My favorite part of boot camp was the huge breakfast we got to eat after we passed battlestations.
