13:50 My big brother Ricky was a Marine and served in the Vietnam War. He operated in Task Force Delta in Nam Phong Thailand and was an expert on all the weapons he trained on, that's about all his military records say. He never spoke about anything he did. I got his record from the National Archive. Unfortunately, he committed suicide not long after being home. He didn't have children, but it devastated his wife. Me too of course, but I was just a kid, he was only 24 years old and it still breaks my heart. So glad for your Commandant's taking the mental health of his Marines serious.
Speaking as a former Marine , I served in 3/1 and 3/7 in 1966. It was valuable for Marine pilots to spend time with the grunts to better grasp the air to ground support needs.
I am praying for our soldiers and have great respect for them. I am thankful for their service to our country and preserving our sovereignty. Thank you all so much.
The General is by far the Marine that I have the most respect for along with Lt. Gen. Richard Mills who led the USMCR whom I had the supreme honor of meeting at the USMC Museum not far from MCB Quantico a couple years ago! Even though he's now retired General Amos was very straightforward but understanding, outgoing but caring, he really cared about not only the USMC but all our military personnel as a whole! Continue to enjoy your retirement sir and Semper Fi Marine!
Good for you for not shooting down some1 for admiring the marines from afar nor his goals...Thank you from front lines, South Armagh--Bandit Country, Northern Ireland
General Amos agreed to graciously take a photo with me, and a couple of co-workers while visiting MCB CPEN. The General is truly an officer and a gentleman! Thank you General and Happy Memorial Day!
I doubt this will get answered but here it goes anyways. Q: You say you're 'Keeping the best' Tier 1 and Tier 2' Marines. I'm a Tier 2, no negative paperwork only positive. I was denied reenlistment due to boatspaces. I tried to LAT move into a different MOS within my OCC field, denied again due to boatspaces. This process took so long, I now missed the deadline to LAT move into any other OCC field and have to give up my dream job and EAS. I was told I will just get looked over if I try to come back in because there's always kids fresh out of highschool that take priority over me. Why waste more money training them if I'm already trained, know my job and wanting to stay in?
Josh Downs Yup.. wouldn't be the first time I've seen that, ridiculous, it's like what even determines 'essential' ... I would assume that I'm not essential even though I've done a good bit if you ask me to be more competitive. I've been deployed to Afghan, high 1st class PFT/CFT, like 25 MCIs, was sent back to my MOS school for the follow on courses, high mcmap belt / pistol qual. only thing that probably hurt me was I'm a sharpshooter on rifle (missed expert by 5 points) but it's cool, I'll get out so a fat body turd who will probably get meritoriously promoted can have my spot! or some highschool kid who just graduated and is running around saying he's gonna be a big bad war hero.
Allotted positions in each MOS. If there's too many people and not enough boat spaces someone isn't going to be allowed to re-enlist or will have to latmove to a MOS with available boat spaces.
For those that question his ability to do a good job coping with infantry I'm reminded of a dinner I attended where a Marine officer was the guest speaker. When he was done he was asked a number of questions and one lady asked him was, "What do you do in the Marine Corps?" and I'll never forget his answer. He smiled and said. "I'm a Marine rifleman that occasionally drives a fighter aircraft."
Having been on both sides of the fence, POG life really is the way to go once you have a family to look after. Grunt life is probably exactly where you need to be if you're too close-minded to think that grunts don't need POGs.
Exactly. Let me tell you, coming from a POG, nothing was more hypocritical than hearing highers say “we’re the worlds most elite fighting force, rah?” When our squadron has marksman and unqs, pft failures, four year tan belts, etc etc. it’s all lip service, and if one day some POGS got into a firefight, well, I hope they’ve been brushing up on basic infantry tactics because that little one month ITB they did 2 years ago and never again doesn’t make them the same as Army Rangers. I’ve been there and I’ve seen this attitude, people don’t even go to the Armory once a month to clean weapons. A lot of our leaders need to put their money where their mouth is and actually train their Marines.
Because your entitled fucking question speaks the reasons why. You are so immature that you expect the world to be handed to you and that the rest of us should hold your hands and allow you to feel entitled. You non NCO's need to learn your fucking role and place. Do what we tell you to do and strive forward. If your intentions are anything but to retire then quit our beloved corps and save us the bother of having to retrain you fuckers every few months. That's why you get treated like shit. We haven't determined if you are going to stay with us or just walk away quitting on your fellow Marines.
For Marines in a BEQ. Why is it that we can't have hotplates, George Foreman's, or even rice cookers?! This is a very big issue for Marines who are on comrats. Microwaves are far more dangerous, and draw more power than a rice cooker. Yet we are expected to eat well in the barracks? Would it not be reasonable to allow us to own these, as long as it's within reasonable guidelines (Own a fire extinguisher). It's very unsettling that a 22 year old man who's voted, who's spent time over seas, and is an NCO is not trusted enough to cook his own food. Thank you.
So there many questions I asked about BEQ life on the ask CMC page as well as others and not a single one was asked or answered here. They don't live in the barracks so no one gives a shit. All they care about is how clean it looks while the guys out in town who married their high school crush and will be divorced in two years get to do and live however they want. How about forcing unit commanders to actually follow the Barracks Campaign Plan that came out in 2006?!?!? Most of the damn higher ranking people I talk to in my unit have never even heard of it because they don't live in the barracks so they do not care. I've met one person in my unit over the rank of Sgt that has heard of this. He actually had a copy of it on his external hard drive. The BEQ Campaign plan was actually a step in the right direction to bring Marines quality of life in the barracks somewhat up to par with those that live out in town but the wording in most of it leaves it optional for commanders to follow it so they choose to just ignore it.
I would think the reason you cannot use a food cooking appliance is because of the potential of a fire when a cooker is improperly used. If there was a stainless steel room with a metal closing door, smoke alarms, fire sprinklers, food cookers would be safe.
SanFranciscoBay every barracks I've lived in that isn't a squad bay was fully brick with fire suppression system. And heavy steel doors. Not a whole lot in there to burn except for the furniture. Basically as close as you could get to a jail cell minus steel bars and stainless steel toilets and sinks.
Josh Downs. I don't know the layout of your sleeping/living areas. Do they have designated cooking area or are the areas for sleeping and living? You cannot cook food in a Public Library. There is a reason for most rules.
I agree with everything he said except for the spare no expense for medical comment, because I just got out last year and most of my Docs, Navy Corpsman, and Dentists are well known for misdiagnosing Marines, and making small health problems worse than what they were from the word get. Although I currently have a disability rating of 50%, I'm still having to prepare to fight for a Sleep Apnea case of an extra 30% that they kept trying to screw me over on, even though I rate the CPAP machine in black and white. He also need to micromanage the issues of fraternization, which I've seen lots of at my last command. Other than that, I loved this interview and how he was man enough to answer all questions given. Good stuff
Our people and our country are pround to have such Honor Pride and Respect for Jen. James Amos for his hard work and tried his really best for our country and am sure people will look at him and wanted to fallow his foot steppe as such the best Leaders
my life dream is to be a marine, I like challenges and I want to prove myself worthy to my family and friends that I can succeed and thank you for this information👍
The Corps is always the 1st to respond and is already the smallest organization. Downsizing should only apply to the ones who are not doing their job and/or are trouble makers of the worst kind. We read about top officers who think they are above the regs and laws often getting a wrist slap when caught doing something wrong, usually a quick transfer. There needs to be total discipline and honor in the Corps to be what it is expected to be and that includes women Marines as well. Semper Fi
#amos so much came out since you left. Id love to see you in an interview now answering questions about that sniper team you blackballed. You said if it is important to the Marines it is important to you yet as far as fitness standards you said so what when you were told their was a concern by your Marines yet ya put sleeves up. Big deal man. General Neller made a change already for the better which is what we asked for. How do you sleep?
Unless your are covering and concealing at night. Brite parts like rings, glasses and white colours obviously reflect light at will expose your position.
I was a soldier, and I lead a organization under the CMC. Alot of buget has been taken, for Barracks. The Marine Barracks isues is critical, maybe take more for them.
I think I believed about 2 percent of what he said, this was mostly a PR Campaign with softball questions. Amos, you didn't really relate much to Lcpls in your attempt to answer questions. This is the same stupid bullshit we hear from our BC's and Sgt Majors, the things you said in this video are not exactly reality on the ground. Nice try James!
Can I just write it here and you ask him for me? Q: How do you respond to claims that you are out of touch with todays generation of young Marines? Q: How do you intend to gain credibility with todays generation of young Marines who have lost faith in the top brass of todays USMC?
andrewsails1371 Here works as well. Thanks for submitting. We'll mark them down with the rest. I suggested asking live tomorrow as those questions will likely be given more attention.
Always you are the best. Marine .i know this video Is the was Time But Is womderful hear about the Marine ... Yes. Sir you had power for Leader and Teacher. I answeer the question for stress. They have in the hard work......you know. I think positive Is womderful they take Time for herself. With execerside. Play sport game i think inside Army have couch for helping And forget. The hard.

I think this man has his shit about him. He seems to be looking out for the Marine Corps first and his four stars second. He'd do well in Australian SASR.
You don't need to down size the Marines. We need 230,000 Marines. If we have 2 wars roll up and bite us. Who will fight the battle's. It's hard to train 100,000 NCO's . you will be getting rid of 10 year vets that know the job well. Keep the newbies. Not be ready. Keep the Gurneys!
What I want to know, is why he thinks he can come in and change things that have been the MC way for a long long time? We generally stuck in our ways but i guess change is good?!?!
Dont sign for an 0321 contract, if you fail BRC theyll stick you into whereever, you need to be physically fit, have a mentality that youll die before you give up, and be able to go incredibly long distances before you get tired(endurance). My uncle told me what BRC was like back when he was in and you had people drowning in the first week. 2 people have died at BRC in the past year. Sign for an 03 contract and sign up for BRC when at SOI, thats what im doing.
@12:18 In the infantry units, which he has no experience in, the Commandant is completely wrong. The joke is, "Hey Gunny, I can't make the 26 mile hike." "Why not Marine?" "My leg is broken and I have a cast on Gunny." "Hydrate and suck it up Marine, you are going." The point is, most are not able to ask for help. No Marine wants to be known as a "broke dick" and going into his reenlistment situation reasoning, most Marine's pros and cons will reflect for under performing or not performing based on the needs of our personal situations. Marine's complain about the problems we have had and we are not able to get the VA's help or the percentage that we need to take care of ourselves based on lack of paperwork. This paperwork is lacking because we are not trying to limit ourselves and have our pros and cons reflect and be known as a broke dick. Yet, we can always ask for help apparently. Also, if a unit leadership fails, then shame on them. How do they learn? What is the environment and who is setting that tone? Shame on anyone who wears our cloth and does not reach out to help out another Marine. Shame on the senior leader of the Marines who does not set the tone, provide the direction to cultivate the environment and mentor the leaders in those units to ensure that they are taking care of these areas of concerns in the manner that they should be. Take ownership of your Marines. JJDIDTIEBUCKLE does not say point the finger and place blame. Shame on who? Semper Blue falcon?
General. This paragraph is from Cpl Chambers U.S.M.C. enlisted from December 4th, 1994 until August 1999. You should remove the magazine you called "Marine Corp Times". Our tradition is "Leatherneck" and Stars and Stripes".
Where can one submit a question? Certainly, the General can delegate this and i will still be better off with an answer. Picture this. The Skipper is talking to the Gunny and it seems that tgere was some issue with morning colors. Sgt Meee walks near and stands at Parade rest, waiting for break in Skipper-Gunny dialog to render a salute. But that time will NEVER HAPPEN as skipper send boot up Sgt's butt for being disrespectful by not saluting. So, salute and interupt or wait?
Nie wiem o czym rozmawia generał James Amos z amerykańskim dziennikarzem wojskowym ale w osiemdziesiątych latach powstały takie technologie jakie nam się nie śniły.

The General is continually inspecting the Sgt. Some things cannot be changed.
He is looking at his uniform lol
Why is that a bad thing?
@@Pius-XI It is not.
In his mind he's like "When is the last time you washed that uniform, sergeant?"

Hey brother. Only dress uniforms should that much attention to detail matter.

For Marines in a BEQ. Why is it that we can't have hotplates, George Foreman's, or even rice cookers?! This is a very big issue for Marines who are on comrats.

+behvac I think the following totals: 450,000 USAF, 480,000 USN, 700,000 USA, 255,000 USMC + National Guard and Reserve Components.
What is the reawakening?
Ka-Kaw!
Yeah buddy!!!
I dont have more than 2 beers anymore.
2:13 How finance marines pick up chicks at the bar
Famous Amos. haha.
Thank you Sir, clearing up a lot of things for a person how is looking to join.
The CMC!
God bless
He looks like Bruce Willis with hair
What I want to know, is why he thinks he can come in and change things that have been the MC way for a long long time? We generally stuck in our ways but i guess change is good?!?!
Everything humanity have ever fought for is being given to the enemy.
anything thing he has said about the tattoo policy? Like a more lenient one?
and what are the requirements to join the marine force recon
Dont sign for an 0321 contract, if you fail BRC theyll stick you into whereever, you need to be physically fit, have a mentality that youll die before you give up, and be able to go incredibly long distances before you get tired(endurance). My uncle told me what BRC was like back when he was in and you had people drowning in the first week. 2 people have died at BRC in the past year. Sign for an 03 contract and sign up for BRC when at SOI, thats what im doing.
Big Balls !!!!!!
Dang, lets match our blouse & trousers there Sgt
smart man
Peep the knife hand.@30:35

Get the guys in recruiting give or promise you a job you can actually use real world or use the GI Bill and go back and be an officer
Every Real Marine is a Commando
GOD Bless you🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😇✝️❤️
WOW.
@12:18 In the infantry units, which he has no experience in, the Commandant is completely wrong. The joke is, "Hey Gunny, I can't make the 26 mile hike." "Why not Marine?" "My leg is broken and I have a cast on Gunny." "Hydrate and suck it up Marine, you are going." The point is, most are not able to ask for help. No Marine wants to be known as a "broke dick" and going into his reenlistment situation reasoning, most Marine's pros and cons will reflect for under performing or not performing based on the needs of our personal situations. Marine's complain about the problems we have had and we are not able to get the VA's help or the percentage that we need to take care of ourselves based on lack of paperwork. This paperwork is lacking because we are not trying to limit ourselves and have our pros and cons reflect and be known as a broke dick. Yet, we can always ask for help apparently. Also, if a unit leadership fails, then shame on them. How do they learn? What is the environment and who is setting that tone? Shame on anyone who wears our cloth and does not reach out to help out another Marine. Shame on the senior leader of the Marines who does not set the tone, provide the direction to cultivate the environment and mentor the leaders in those units to ensure that they are taking care of these areas of concerns in the manner that they should be. Take ownership of your Marines. JJDIDTIEBUCKLE does not say point the finger and place blame. Shame on who? Semper Blue falcon?
Why is the commandant of the Marine Corps wearing black socks with his cammies? I know that's not authorized, sir!
if you were issued them in bootcamp you can still use them
UK Royalty confirm
Jen lived in Montana that's a whole nother story
A = Eb
I'm an ex Jdf soldier, how could I be enlisted in the us army if am not living in the states?
#askcmc what about going back to green cammies only and leaving the other set only for deployments?
Aren't black boot socks not authorized anymore? just saying. But its interesting hearing the Commandant talk.
Lindao❤❤
I don't trust this guy's body language.
Hes not even a real marine, he didnt go to bootcamp, ocs, or tbs he was a transfer from the navy
Pog
General. This paragraph is from Cpl Chambers U.S.M.C. enlisted from December 4th, 1994 until August 1999. You should remove the magazine you called "Marine Corp Times". Our tradition is "Leatherneck" and Stars and Stripes".
Where can one submit a question? Certainly, the General can delegate this and i will still be better off with an answer.
Picture this. The Skipper is talking to the Gunny and it seems that tgere was some issue with morning colors. Sgt Meee walks near and stands at Parade rest, waiting for break in Skipper-Gunny dialog to render a salute. But that time will NEVER HAPPEN as skipper send boot up Sgt's butt for being disrespectful by not saluting.
So, salute and interupt or wait?
Nie wiem o czym rozmawia generał James Amos z amerykańskim dziennikarzem wojskowym ale w osiemdziesiątych latach powstały takie technologie jakie nam się nie śniły.
