@@foxomexra well they wouldn't all be marines, if we were in a situation were we need some sort of conscription I think they would probably figure another branch or some way were the soldiers require different and not as much or cheaper tools. or by then they might have weaponry and gear that might be cheaper to produce. but atm. yeah jesus it would be costly
True, Army here, not as bad but definetly helped me perform under pressure and stress. It also gives you a sense of urgency and helps you realize that quitting isn't an option.
As a Marine infantryman, I trained in Estonia for a month. It was beautiful! And I was impressed with the Estonian SF guys we trained with. Bunch of bad ass killers. Talon was especially gorgeous. I have no doubt you Estonians would give the Russians hell. We'll be right there to help!
The yelling isn't intended to teach. Its intention is to stress out a recruit to the max, in order to prepare them for the chaos and fear of combat. So that they will learn to do what they are trained to do despite being gripped by fear.
I've heard of folks having nightmares of being at bootcamp, waking up, and thanking whichever deity that they were actually in Guadalcanal, Hue, or Fallujah.
Well also they yell to garentee that you hear the orders because if you didn't it's not your fault but they train to tell that loud so you don't have an excuse
Yes, FEAR is the biggest enemy in a combat situation. The yelling does many thing to condition a person for ignoring the emotional interference and applying logical reasoning for survival. Every job requires some training, even digging a ditch. Training and conditioning will determine if you survive someone trying to kill you, ( Combat ) . Fear either gets you killed or makes you a coward. Yelling is immaterial unless it adapts you to control Fear and live so yelling can be important. USMC 1953-1973 " Vietnam Survival Degree " x2
Well said. I've heard several morons criticize the yelling as "inhumane" or whatever. Well guess what, war is not very humane and they're trying to prepare you so you can survive its sheer terror.
@@Veraxu1227 it's also so that you learn to listen to the orders, and not the tone of the voice giving the orders. you're supposed to carry out that order regardless of the way that superior talks to you. While it was toned down in basic for me (I was Army, not Marines) The way it works is the drill sergeants will give you an instruction block, for example, hand signals. The training block is hands-on, with whoever is instructing giving clear, yet stern instructions. When you move slow, or miss what they said, or fuck up, they yell, and then if the mistake is serious enough the platoon, or individual, depending on the issue, will be given remedial training. This is usually a "smoke" session where you preform physical exercises to exhaustion while the Drill Sergeant reprimands you and explains, in detail WHY you fucked up, HOW you fucked up, and WHAT needs to be done to fix the issue. You see, the yelling gives you a sense of urgency, but at the same time, doing it right. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. It clears any other bullshit in your head, any doubts, any daydreams, etc. You can only hear the drill sergeant's voice ringing in your head, and it works.
They never show the physical abuse you go through being there, drowning in the poole for those that cant swim only last minute being pulledout, When on rifle range having fire ants poured on your back or while in the prone position having someone stand on your ankles, having the entire platoon slap the back of your head bc a DI said fix him, being made to hold/squat up one end of the rack up as a DI works your ribs for you, being made to go into the wall locker and DIs having the guide and squad leaders beat you. Cold nights in the river if your bravo company, being put in a footlocker and kicked down the stairs if your a small guy, being put into a high left knee with one rock or a magazine under your knee holding you up as you go through knowledge classes. Being put into a dryer then its turned on. These are all some of the things you'll see and have happen to you there that will never be shown that's why they're so many suicides. But you got to get used to chaos if you want to be a marine. Still the best time I've ever had.
James Smith my dad once told me a story of when he was a marine and his friend committed suicide cause he couldn’t handle everything they had to go through
As a Sergeant of Marines myself who EOS'd (End of Service) in 2015, I would like to point out a few things as I watch this video. Time stamps starting at number 3. 1) The pronunciation of Corps in US Marine Corps is said as "core" 2) The yelling is to simulate the stressful environment of combat If you cannot handle the stress or make out what the Instructor is saying yelling at you like that then you will learn, one way or another. 3) 6:10 - I wouldn't call it brainwashing so much as it is obedience to orders. Brainwashing has a pretty negative stigma and it isn't the goal of the program to brainwash you. When in combat you need to move immediately without question when a superior tells you to do something or you and your unit may die. 4) 9:35 - I really don't know how it is over there, but females have their own standards to meet in the USMC. It is true that the average female cannot keep up with the average male do to how their body is made versus the male body for physical performance. It is worth pointing out that the female standard is equally as hard for females as the male standard is for males, so if they get the perfect 3 mile run, they earned it just as much as the males did for their perfect 3 mile run time, which is 3 minutes quicker. 5) 13:50 - Nothing, just wanted to say you are right on that. Tear gas sucks. Have to do it every year. Forced to breathe it in and all. 6) 16:00 - You're right there too. Recruits always have somebody in boot camp they hate that they want to bash their head in. This is the best moment to do it, if you are lucky enough to get that recruit you want to fight. 7) 18:40 - Okay so there are moving targets going side to side, but only on the second phase of rifle qualification. The first phase is all about accuracy with your rifle or marksmanship at a distance up to 500 meters. The targets you saw moving are actually only moving after each shot or set, depending if it is rapid fire or not. The recruit down the firing lane (safe from danger) lowers the target, marks where the shot was, and then raises the target back up so the shooter can mark the position of the hit, and adjust him/herself or the rifle accordingly. The second phase is about combat. Moving targets, shooting one in the head and two in the chest, etc. 8) 19:45 - Okay so don't ever say this to a USMC drill instructor. So the screaming does hurt the vocal chords if you don't do it right or do it too much. But really these Marines when they come home are friendly with their wives or husbands, and when they come back to their original MOS or job they had before being a DI, they are just like you saw them before they left. The screaming is just part of the job. I had drill instructors that I talked friendly with even as a recruit once during second phase on my way to church, but when we got back to the squad bay its back to the yelling. The recruits and drill instructors know this, it's just their job to yell at us, and it's our job to take it. 9) 20:40 - What you are looking at there is what is called IT, or "incentive training." This is used ONLY in boot camp, as if it is done anywhere else it is considered hazing and punishable by the UCMJ (or the Uniform Code of Military Justice), aka breaking the law. This incentive training on recruits is done for multiple reasons. For this case with the classroom, it is likely that those recruits were either asleep in class, talking to other recruits during class, or not paying attention. Think of incentive training for recruits as a sort of punishment or physically tiring time out because somebody was being a bad boy. 10) 22:05 - It is actually more simple than you may think. The recruits go through 3 different literal phases of boot camp that work for almost everyone I have seen. The first phase is to break you down, the second phase is to get you accustomed to your new life, and the third phase is to bring you back up again. 11) 22:40 - I'm surprised you didn't say anything here, but I just wanted to say yeah... The crucible sucks. 12) 26:55 - Yes. The yelling does get less and less over time, as recruits know how to not get yelled at, but even on the very last night we had in boot camp before that ceremony, we had Marine recruits get yelled at by drill instructors. The yelling never stops. Even after boot camp when you go into the "second boot camp" aka MCT or Marine Combat Training, the yelling doesn't stop. Even in your schoolhouse(s) and the fleet where you work your job the yelling doesn't stop. If you mess up, you get yelled at. Hopefully this helps your knowledge of the US Marine Corps.
The yelling is to give recruits a small sense of the stress and anxiety they will experience in the battlefield. No offense taken to anything you said. Keep up the great work.
Yeah once he gets deployed he will understand lol...in any situation firefight or not basic training or not you have to hear the orders one way or another...that one way being loud incomprehensible commands that become more and more comprehensible the more you're yeld at lol...the other being being yelled at under the hellfire of the enemy...cant give an order in a firefight by whispering
I love your channel. But just so you know, I wanted to address your “broken” comment (respectfully). Everyone is different so I can only tell you my experience as a former military dependent. My father volunteered for the Marine Corps during Vietnam and retired as a Master Gunnery Sergeant after 20 years of service. I never really interacted with him while he was on the job but in his personal life he was always a very laid-back, non-aggressive, and even tempered person. I’ve never even heard him raise his voice. He never even owned a personal gun or rifle. Growing up I often lived in military housing and we had lots of fish fries for my fathers friends and coworkers so I was around lots of Marines and I always found them to be very good and balanced people. I’m sure there are some broken people but I think that’s going to happen when you look at any group statistically.
My father was a Marine, He was very even tempered too. Never got frustrated just worked his way through whatever problem there was. Also I am positive that they evaluate the individual persons for mental/emotional fragility. They don't want people who would endanger the mission or their team..
my grandfather was a WWII Gunny. He served as an AA gun captain on a destroyer. He fought against the kamikazes at Okinawa. He was the strongest broken man I've known with the exception of one of his longtime friends at the VFW who was one of the Chosin Few. Both were highly functional total drunks who took care of their responsibilities but were not all there psychologically. I witnessed both of those Marines and others randomly breakdown into tears seemingly out of nowhere. It wasn't the training but the fighting that broke them, the training probably helped them get back home alive.
Ok, This is coming from a retired Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant. The brainwashing as you refer to it, is to teach them to follow orders when they are young and new, and don't know what the right decision is to make in a combat situation. One of the biggest differences in the Marine Cops and all other services is, after we finish boot camp and our military occupation school we are then trained to become leaders. In order to get promoted from E3 to E4, which is usually around year 2.5 to 4, you must complete 2 leadership courses. One is online, and the other is conducted by your unit command. The ability to make combat decisions is taught starting at the rank of E2. If your are a Corporal (E4) and the Sergeant (E5) in your fire team, squad etcetera is taken out, you need to be capable of stepping up and taking his place as the new leader. So, yes we brainwash" them in boot camp, MCT, and somewhat in MOS school, but immediately after that we start training them to become leaders.
I would add that the US is not a military system. There is no mandatory service in our country. People volunteer to serve in the branch of their own choosing, or as is the vast majority do not serve in any public capacity at all. There may be arguments made about the benefits of doing so, but at the end of the day there is nothing compulsory about service. Certainly, there is a draft system. However, this has not been utilized since Vietnam and is also gender imbalanced. The modern military does not need draftees, and in my opinion as a Navy Enlistee, is also detrimental to the overall functionality of our armed forces. We gain strength BECAUSE people want to be there, they learn what the real world stakes are (in a way that is almost impossible to learn as a civilian without joining a major contractor), and they blend with their associates while offering background, cultural and religious insights that might be overlooked. We pride ourselves on being the highest levels of neutral, as long as basic logistics can resolve your specific issue. The quality of your work and your fitness (at least as far as I have influence) are the sole defining factors in your evaluation. Nothing else to me matters. It also is not brainwashing, It is more like an equalizer. You begin at the same level as everyone else, and you pass under the same conditions as everyone else. That means at the end of bootcamp, everyone is the same. Anything after aka your specialty, your performance, etc. is from you alone. The drive to excel and the esprit de corps is from within, not from some magical brainwashing. It is hard to explain without going through it yourself. I think the simplest explanation would be that you are instructed to pay attention to details and to follow directions, but also not to follow directions that would be morally or ethically questionable.
Awesome comment, Gunny. Wish the whole country could believe and fight like Marines. We are are rare breed that has to be taught and nurtured with great systems, programs, and leadership.
“it’s tough for females and if your a feminist, then i don’t wanna hear it”. this is my first video i’ve watched on this channel and I’m already starting to like this guy 😂
When I was in boot camp in the late 80s, I had to go through the gas chamber 3 consecutive times because the drill instructors thought I wasn't snotty and choking enough....good times
They didn't mess with me much in the gas chamber, but they did literally throw me off the rappelling tower. Not for any reason either, I wasn't one of the scared ones. Literally just looked at me and yelled "hope you tied that shit right, bitch" and physically picked me up and threw me off...for fun I guess.
In the Navy I did the Gas Chamber during boot and several more times while in the fleet over my 20 years. Good times, cleared out my sinuses every time.
I think the reason I keep watching these videos is that Artur is always smiling. The yelling is part of the tear down. The whole point of boot camp is to tear a person down and rebuild them as a Marine.
Course the Japanese, also thought their emperor at the time, was an “actual god”, and was therefore never wrong, nor able to be defeated by anything. FACT. Course I’m sure any present day Japanese person would say that belief was “more ceremonial” than literal. However after studying that period in Japanese history, I disagree. The citizens of Japan were told (and obediently agreed) to arm every man, woman, and, child healthy enough and fight to the death rather than surrender to US troops. Which was US explanation to the public for using nuclear weapons, and the fire bombing of Tokyo. Because saying “We wanted to test it out” makes for bad PR.
Haha Americans still think they won the World War. Breaking News, it was in fact Russia. If The Not so good 'ol US of A ever get involved in a real war on their Soil they will capitulate in a week. Russia lost near 30 millions in WW2. The U S have lost less than one and a half in all the Wars they have ever been in and half of those in the War of Independence. They have never had their civilians Bombed Murdered Raped Tanks flatten their cities etc its easy fight wars remotely with almost no casualties and using tech rather than boots on the ground and withouth having to worry about your families being wiped out by the Enemy
Fun fact: Bob Ross used to be a drill sergeant. After he retired and started painting he said he would never yell again. That’s why he has a gentle voice
Bob Ross is known for producing beautiful landscapes, his soft-spoken demeanor, and bushy facial hair. ... During his twenty years in the Air Force, Ross reached the rank of Master Sergeant. He often commented in "The Joy of Painting" that his landscape choices were influenced by his time in Alaska.
I retired from the Marine Corps the yelling actually gets less and less as you progress thru Bootcamp. In the beginning of Bootcamp the yelling is used to break you down and it also helps prepare you to handle chaos in battle but as you progress through training the yelling starts to subside it never goes completely away but it does start to become less. When you actually get into the Fleet Marine Force's doing what ever your MOS ( MOS is basically your job in the military ) is there is no yelling at you. Because as you pointed out you can't learn by being yelled at. Love the video and love hearing your perspective on the Marine Corps the respect you have for us Marine's is thanked and i for one along with many others respect for your military and your personal military service.
Plus, once you graduate, the drill instructors are super cool to you. It's all an act, that they actually are trained for quite a while to do. But yeah, the point of the yelling is to break you down, and snap you out of being a civilian, then they gradually build you back up towards the end, but as a Marine. It will also save your life since you learn to remain calm under extreme stress. I wasn't even able to go to DI School because of my documented anger issues. Had to do anger management at one point in the Marines.
@@koanikal There's no way I could do that - I just don't get mad. More likely I'd burst out laughing and get into serious trouble. The more serious, the harder I'd laugh. It's not even a nervous thing; it's like in the moment for whatever reason, I find anger directed at me the most hilarious thing.
Robert Smith is correct. (Of course...he retired from.the Corps). I served 6 yrs in the Corps. Recruit training breaks down the civilian mindset and teaches the traditions of the Corps. (Honor Courage Commitment as example). Afterwards they switch to teaching where they explain why and then practice practice practice...until perfection. That is what makes the USMC is the greatest war machine in history for a force as small as it is.
Contrary to your statement about the analytical capability of U.S. Marines; the reason Marines are so successful and feared in battle is due to their high level of reasoning, and tactical skills, as is proven during the Crucible portion of their training. These people are not only deadly, most of them are absolutely brilliant. My son served as a U.S Marine for eight years, and is now a computer scientist.
My grandpa was an engineer with the marines during the Korean War and after his service he went on to help develop and invent the microwave. To this day he is the sweetest most calm person I’ve ever met.
Hey Artur, if you ever want to talk to a fellow Estonian who immigrated to the US and went through Marine Corps bootcamp, let me know. I went through that hell 10 years ago myself.
Very true. I was about to say the same thing. You have to know how to conduct yourself "in the sh!t." Hell week is always the best. You learn to pay attention to every detail.
@Chad Klaren This is a big thing. People don't know this but you can drop out anytime during basic/boot camps. Most people that can't cut it leave during this time. We had over 20 people drop out of my Basic Training class for the Army. People who were not fully committed or can't handle the pressure.
IrishBiteGirl they drop you to a different platoon who’s earlier on in the training cycle. You get three chances, then you’re done. But even then, you don’t get to leave until training is complete
interesting kinda fact, most situation the officers in the US military are used to reign in the troops. An Israili special forces commented how US troops tend to just keep going and pushing harder when the leading officer was taken out of commission, it was the officers that kept them in check. that most military's tend to slow down or stop when officers were taken down but our troops just pushed harder. like i said, that was an observation from an outside military person looking at US troops
Yeah, we push leadership down to NCOs FAR FAR FAR more than any other military in the world. And USMC then goes further and does it even more than the other US branches. You might literally have an E-3 planning, prepping, and leading an assault on a fortified enemy position. All the officer did was say "hey E-3, in my larger plan I need your squad to take this position" (because yes, sometimes E-3s will lead squads in USMC...billet over rank). E-3 might literally then take things over from there and run the whole show. And is even taught to then continue exploitation if they see it, so they might then just continue going and take out entire units they were never asked to just because they saw opportunity.
I’ve been watching you videos and they are very good. Your personality adds a lot. I was a U.S. Marine for 20 years and can attest to the importance of Marine training. It is like nothing else in the world.
“The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!” ― Eleanor Roosevelt
@Vivek You realize it’s just a mask, right? They’re only as hard as they need to be in order to be good enough for the ground line. As soon as the training’s over, they drop the facade and are generally funny and awesome people. Real bullies would be terrible drill instructors because they get emotionally involved with their tormenting and would either be too busy bullying to teach them to be soldiers or they would lose interest quickly after the first couple weeks. Both result in worse soldiers who are going to die on the battlefield and will end up taking a few of their friends with them. Friends that the drill instructor wants to keep alive and is willing to be as hard as necessary on these guys to keep them safe.
@@Lobsterwithinternet Wrong, this is just like cops. Shit people abuse their power. Yes some of them are really nice people who are forced to yell ex. Bob Ross. But a lot of these people are just bullies and high school jocks who want to continue to abuse their power over others.
Heya, Artur! I always perceived it this way: *most* Marines are the ones carrying ammo and weaponry out of an amphibious vehicle and right into a hail of weapons fire, so the most important thing to teach them is the ability to intently, singlemindedly, and unbreakably focus on their task at hand. Kind of opposite of what you were saying, I think they train all Marines this 'steel focus' idea first, train their bodies to match their minds, and *then* teach them how to shoot, fly an aircraft, drive a tank, or eat food with utensils and not their hands. ( Sorry bruddas, Navy here so I gotta throw in *some* grief!) All of the other branches do the same thing but to a much, much lesser degree than our blood-striped brothers and sisters. My heavy training consisted of firstly getting in shape, working on swimming and flotation devices...hell, did you know a Navy sailor is taught how to take off their pants, tie the legs in a knot, and fill them with air to stay afloat? We ALL learned how to fight shipboard fires, and how to dog down hatches ( that means shut doors and tighten down their locking latches if you didn't know ) to protect against high waves or nuclear, biological, or chemical attacks. Then we were taught about our future jobs in the Navy after that. In my case, I went on to Aircrewman training and learned advanced swimming and deep water survival, land survival in case of getting shot down, Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape training ( POW camp simulator ), and then advanced training for inflight operation of aircraft systems. I suppose every training system has it's good and bad points, but I thought that I would at least try and explain it a little bit from how I was exposed to it back in the 80's and 90's. Thanks for all the great videos, bud! Keep up the great work! Also, I have to say it before I leave: GO NAVY!! ⚓😃⚓
My dad was Navy in 1943, and my uncles were in all branches at that time (Big families back then). I grew up next to Great Lakes NTC, which I’m guessing you knew well. Our high school science class had tours of some of the classes, where I saw my first oscilloscope. I also had a fake ID which we used to buy cigarettes at the PX for 25 cents in 1965. Security wasn’t a top issue, I guess. That base was kind of laid back, except for the small contingent of Marines that served there. Which just reminded me-in the late 50’s and early 60’s those Marines would stage an “amphibious assault” from the shore of Lake Michigan. They would advance across a couple hundred yards of beach parallel to the shore, and finish by fixing bayonets and throwing a satchel charge into a sandbag bunker. Us kids would swarm the area afterwards collecting M-14 shells and clips. I think they did that on Memorial Day. Today they’d use a drone run by some 18 year-old video game player ten miles away. In memory of my dad and 2 uncles, and all you sailors-GO NAVY!
Rian Werne for saying that (generally speaking) physically demanding training is harder for a woman than a man? It’s just a matter of fact bud. Don’t let your feelings get in the way of your ability to see and think logically 👌🏽
"You can't teach anyone by yelling all the time." There is an initial instruction, and then everyone around you is doing it as well. If it isn't settled yet in your mind, there will be yelling... and then something awesome happens. You filter the noise and figure it out. You get the little mental tweak that lets you process and improvise while stressed or distressed. That's the point.
He did explain that "Unless" explained beforehand, Yelling wont help. Which is mostly true, not 100% true all depends on the person. But only yelling does not always work unless you first explain how to do this thing they wish for you to do. :D
Artur: *hears how many active duty Marines there are* "Ooooh" Marines: *the smallest branch of the US Military* Edit: since some people are taking this personally. "Smallest Combat branch of the military" is more accurate. Sorry Coast Guard 😂
In my platoon in 1995 you didnt want to make a phone call. You would pay with sweat for those few minutes. The screaming is so you can think under pressure. By the 11th week it doesnt phase you. Funny story, we had a recruit claim he was going crazy. The drill instructor made him sit in front of a mirror for hours saying over and over to his reflection "im not crazy, your crazy"🤣
You basement incels get boners that easy, eh? What he said wasn't even anti feminist, yeah women have to deal with physical tests harder, but we do it and become Marines ;)
"We're taught more to analyze." Command's job is to analyze. The Marine's job is to shoot what Command points at, don't shoot what Command doesn't point at, and eat their daily crayon ration.
If you /really/ want to make that crayon taste good then you can use Elmer's Glue as a substitute for cheese spread. It pretty much has the same effect coming out too.
“So much aggressiveness, so much violence, not good for life.” At Parris Island, we were taught to be aggressive, to be violent, while still maintaining the ability to think.....under the most chaotic situations you might find yourself in during combat. That is why the drill instructors are creating an environment of severe anxiety, to teach us how to function and successfully complete whatever the task/mission may be, no matter what is going on around you. We never lose focus and we never fail.
I'd hate to be protected by someone who had things explained to them nicely and didn't get put thru a high stress quick thinking situation..His comments really don't reflect well on the Estonian military training..
Officer Patriot-- I started off with a quote from the video reaction regarding aggression. Followed up with a bit on the aggressiveness we were taught to fight with in the Marine Corps, which I 100% support. Have a great day!
ᕼᑌᗰᗩᑎ ᖴᗴᒪᒪᗩ He was a DI in the Air Force. Typically our DIs stop yelling around week 5, once we get back from warrior week, but that’s only because we typically have our shit together by then. Point is, he wouldn’t have done that much yelling, with that much intensity
@@DaOriginalGrandPanda Our AF was a completely different branch back then. My family is an Air Force family and back in the day, they still had a much more "Army" flavor to them. I've heard many stories from my grandfathers and uncles of how they weren't afraid to beat the shit out of you. As intense as the Marines? Probably not, but I guarantee you our predecessors didn't have the same basic training that we've gone through. I never had to take a gut shot or back hand from my MTI.
We had a guy rip a very loud fart during class time. The drill instructors made the two on either side of him stick their noses in his ass and inhale then run to the back door and blow it out. They had to do this until the smell was gone. Funny shit to see
I was in the Army, but had friends in the Marines. It was similar in both branches, break the recruit down, then build them up. More so in the Marines. My instructors were all airborne NCO from Vietnam War. There was yelling, but we never expected hugs or pats on the back when we enlisted. The Marines are a special breed. Several childhood friends underwent training at MCRD, it was tough, but they benefited from it, even after returning to civilian life. Gives you confidence in what you are capable of.
The Marine Corps is such a small world my guy. I'm second generation Marine in my family, and I actually met the Sergeant Major of MCRD San Diego, SGTMAJ Leal, years before I went there because he was in the same AAV unit as my father. Crazy.
Looking back, bootcamp was hilarious. Good times. Overall my time in taught me how to handle stress and act quickly. The only wrong decision is no decision.
I will never forget seeing my son for the first time at USMC graduation. My first thought was how skinny he looked. They had ripped him to shreds. But he was so proud to be a US Marine. Over the next few months about 25 lbs of muscle just started popping out of him everywhere. They made a warrior out of him. Still so proud.
@Stale Bagelz They are referring to more radical feminists who stay stupid shit like men and women are completely the same, which is different to actual feminism.
@@lordtachanka9654 science STATES male and female are far more SIMILAR then they are DIFFERENT.. butt society because we are "religious" in nature usually focus on the DIFFERENCES.. that basic human tribalism shit.. example.. HEMA.. literally HISTORICAL EUROPEAN MARTIAL ARTS.. and science is in support of it.. swords are massive multipliers and basically remove the differences between male and female in combat... again.. Hema sports today... actually practice and utilize real hema martial arts.. these sports are MIXED GENDER because SWORD dissolve the physical difference.. sexism is why women werent allowed on battle field in the past.. they were property for most of written history... also women on average solve their disputes in less physical ways.. were ass boys on average like to tussle with each other.. this is why men are bigger.. u not bigger cause u had to defend against "saber cats" u bigger cause men fight against men.. most animals in terms of size of the sex.. that is more related to males competing for males thus males are bigger then females as females dont compete for mates... just like u have some mammals were the females are larger BECAUSE they need to compete against other females for male mates... then u have some mammals where both female and male are psychically the same size and weight and its cause they do not compete for mates... FYI: hands DID NOT EVOLVE TO FIGHT OR PUNCH THINGS... they evolved to grab things.. then cause we weren in trees anymore our hand changed to suit our new environment... that is the purpose of hands... its not to beat the shit out of things... the ability to punch.. its like birds foot.. it can do things it didnt evolve to do... also back to the saber cat shit... MODERN DAY HUNTER GATHERERS.. still operate just like those of the past.. GENDER ROLES werent as big as a thing.. both women and men hunted... women with tools like spears etc have NO NATURAL PREDATORS other then their own men.. and same with men.. they have no know predators other then other men or women with weapons.. not only that.. what hunter gatherers didnt and dont do.. is make the women leave her family and go with the man... either or can go with each other or both leave and go out on their own... literally have a MAN and a WOMEN.. that link up.. and BOTH leave their group to start their own group.. if ur logic was true.. this would be a silly thing to do.. a single man going with a women and leaving his larger group of men and women would be silly... society via RELIGION.. is inherently sexists.. religion is BY MEN and FOR MEN... when u go back to proto pagan religions.. u clearly see "gender roles" were almost non existent.. and it was this way in early paganism.. u see it in their gods... as it became more and more organized.. then eventually Monothiesm.. it got more and more sexist.. also should be noted.. one of the biggest theories of how men came to dominate is related to child morality rates and pregnancy.. infant mortality rate was grossly high back then.. cause desiese and etc.. so women were in a perpetual state of pregnancy.. which made them VULNERABLE TO MEN.. not wild animals.. so u had that plus religion going on at the same time.. bam.. 1000's of years of sexism.. and it only stopped when atheists and feminist via humanism started combating religion at state and federal levels wehre it was mixed into laws and policies.. conclusion... not a singly piece of genetics in u evolved in relation to saber cats or lions or bears lmao
@@InanisNihil Females are weaker and smaller than men genetically, I dont know why you went into history because, it is the truth and you have to accept it.
@@Dr_Mundo ok.. clearly ur not that bright... nothing i said claimed women werent on average smaller... the dude mentioned SABER CATS.. as if that has literally ANYTHING TO DO WITH HUMAN EVOLUTION... a wild animal.. has ZERO TO DO WITH HUMAN MALE AND FEMALE SIZE.. and HUMAN CAPABILITY.. I LITERALLY GAVE PROOF.. that WEAPONS literally negate the effectiveness of size difference between male and female humans.. again HEMA... this is replication REAL WORLD MARTIAL ARTS... men and women compete TOGETHER because WEAPONS literally remove the difference.. then i mention Hunter Gatherers.. literally the majority of time how humans lived on EARTH.. there was not women stayed "home" while men hunted.. "Nearly all African hunter-gatherers are egalitarian, with women roughly as influential and powerful as men" so what now.. will u continue to literally fking lie and push bs modern sexism that women literally didnt fking go out an kill wild dangerous animals.. im sorry.. butt the reality is humans before organize religion just WERENT SEXIST and they didnt actively create a religion in FAVOR OF MEN which literally made men ACTIVELY OPPRESS WOMEN... u just said yourself.. "I dont know why you went into history because, it is the truth and you have to accept it." yet HISTORY OF THIS is the TRUTH yet ur sitting there NOT ACCEPTING IT.. so me actually looking at CONCRETE EVIDENCE and HISTORICAL EVIDENCE as well as data taken by science is somehow NOT TRUTH... science and evolution actually supports the main theory that MEN and RELIGION literally took advantage of pregnat women... and thats how they asserted dominance... during the time early agriculture started.. as people settled... and started amassing personal wealth... when where reduced to baby makers... as in men started using their physics strength to abuse women... and pregnant women who clearly are looking out for their unborn childs safety will avoid confrontation and submit with no fight.. again further proof.. butt im expecting people who make silly claims with saber cats and have literally no knowledge of ACTUAL hunter gathers.. or religious history and its pretty evil shitty impact on humanity would probably make up bs to deny this and other vids like it. lmao ruclips.net/video/V56dVFBCQcc/видео.html so if u wanna deny and ignore that REALITY and pick and choose and literally only hold to the argument the men are physically stronger which is true.. dont just stop there.. u need to say men are also overall shitty and just terrible creatures especially to their own women AND CHILDREN... butt u know.. people pick and choose.. preach the good ignore and explain away the bad.. thats pretty fking religious... and men did create religion... and not for good reason either.. xb
My dad is 68. He served in the US Marines in the 70s. I was raised on his stories of boot camp at Parris Island. He always refers to his time in the Marines as "the best four years of my life that I'd never do again." He means that fondly. He's fiercely proud of his service. He flies a USMC flag outside of his house every day. He credits the Corps for getting him off of "a bad path" (which he has never expanded with me on) and getting him to grow up. He ended up on an electronic counter-deceptive measures unit, which gave him a lot of his training that led to him becoming a software engineer after he was discharged. I once said to him that I couldn't understand how he could handle having people yell at him like that and treat him the way they do there. He said that it's only as bad on yourself as you make it. If you sit there dwelling on why it's happening and how pissed off it makes you feel, you'll be miserable. If, on the other hand, you come to a point where you realize it's just a mind game they're playing to see how you respond to extreme chaos and extreme pressure, it doesn't bother you as much. You see the necessity of it, so you adapt accordingly. He said some people know that going in, some have to learn it whilst already in boot camp, and some never learn it at all. He claims that's the secret, though. It was his, anyway. :-)
@@earendilthemariner5546 Hi Miraak! I just asked him for you. He said yes, that it's still very common for people to refer to Marines as "Devil Dogs". He even says it himself sometimes. 😊
Excellent channel, brotha! I've only known a few Estonians, but I found them to be instantly likable. Very lovely folks. Much love, from your homies in NYC/AZ... 👍
The whole purpose of the screaming is to invoke stress. This is done to simulate combat. So when the time comes combat is relatively easy, and you don't break down and freak out. Also there is a practical reason that once your a Marine you are always a Marine
My boss, a retired Marine, gave another employee one simple piece of advice when he was headed for Parris Island: Be fast Be loud Don’t volunteer for anything
A few things to keep in mind regarding this portion of USMC training: 1. This is the very first stages of training. 2. Breaking down the recruit is somewhat analogous to hitting the reset button. 3. This lets the Drill Instructors build them back up in the mold of a Marine. 4. This gives a foundation for all Marines that is later built upon further for combat training and military occupational specialty (MOS) training. 5. Combat exercises in Boot Camp are not meant as the sole combat training given. There is an entire follow-on school for that. 6. Enlistedmen (term also includes women) are taught instant willing obedience to orders, because hesitation in combat leads to casualties. Yours, or worse, your comrades. 7. Enlistedmen are also being taught to use critical thinking by being thrust into situations they aren't prepared for, which forces them to think under stress on how to handle such situations. 8. Perfection is demanded, with the expectation that it won't be achieved, as a method of pushing recruits to set and work towards constantly higher standards. 9. Positive reinforcement is, in fact, given. It isn't frequent, which reinforces that something was done at a high level when it's done. 10. Drill Instructors take pride in seeing their recruits succeed against all odds, even if they don't show it immediately. 11. Drill Instructors take it as a personal failure if a recruit does not complete Boot Camp. I've asked three different DI's, each gave the same answer, each one sincere. 12. Attrition is not the mission for enlistedmen, though it is for Officer Candidates. The goal is to get each recruit to a point where they can successfully meet the standards. Other things to note: 1. Yelling doesn't continue the entire time. It happens, but it's reserved for when you genuinely mess up. 2. Your instructors after Boot Camp and Officer Candidate School (OCS) actually act like teachers when it comes to something technical. This includes infantry tactics. There's a lot more to it, and it doesn't make as much sense from the outside looking in. Not immediately anyway, and not from a 30 minute video. It's a culture as much as it is a branch of service, and one that you have to have experience with to fully understand.
I would like to add to your points. The "explaining" that must happen does happen. It was personally the hardest part for me.... staying awake when shit slows down.
@@tenkei000 Oh, hell, yes that was brutal. And what's worse is that you would be in this semi-conscious state where time blurs or just isn't there. And then there are times where you just blank out and become lucid mid-task... Which makes you fuck it up because you were executing on autopilot, and becoming lucid throws it all off. lol
Screaming and yelling comes first. Analyzing comes later....after the kiddies break from their lazy, comfortable habits. They are, of course, taught to think and operate as intelligent professionals, but first comes the part where they are made to realize full-well, this is not a game. This is the US Marines. The fact is, these recruits aren't being prepared for the possibility of being called up IF the need arises. They are being prepared for the FACT that they will be seeing combat, and they need to be able to meet that stress with a clear head. Otherwise they will die, and maybe get others killed in the process.
Exactly!. I trained in the Army in the mid 1980's, and I lived what was in the video. It's not just you jarheads, and I trained as a tanker! I am also looking at retirement in 12 months - not what you call unstable.
I used to work as a helper doing carpet work when I was in high school during the summers the guy I worked with was an army drill sergeant he was the nicest guy you ever met in your life. Never yelled or raise his voice when off the job. He gave me his drill sergeant hat when he retired.
@@okaycroissant2856 Dude I am 30. My Great grandfather was General Eickolff who flew for the Army aircore in ww2 and was left the military in the 60's I have read his memoirs and letters. And look at the traing videos for the Air force they yelled a lot.
"They will join the 180,000 currently active marines..." Artur: "What?" Me: "That's just the marines man. You've still got the Army, the Navy, and the Air Force."
my kill hat was pissed at me so he had me hold my hands just at the danger line after hoisting the target up. said if i lowered my hands that hed beat my ass. i believed him so i kept my hands up and the wood splintered above and peppered my hands
Can you imagine how much energy a drill sergeant has to have to do his job every day? He may not be crawling through the mud but he's working as hard af. Much respect!
Unfortunately, this type of training probably the high number of mental health issues that veteran have. What is good for war is probably not good for civilian live.
@@kucingmiumiu854 agree, and if the training doesn't irreversibly change a person then being sent to war does. Either way they're not cared for well when they come home, a lot of them become homeless.
Yes! That is correct. I remember one time during my basic training, I was getting smoked by my DI. He was screaming in my ear, asking me some BS. That's when I told him that I can not concentrate while he is screaming at me. That's when he told me: "You can't concentrate when I'm screaming at you? How the fuck will you concentrate when grenades and bullets are flying over your head???" This was back in 2004 and I remember this till this day.
@@cameronmartin4183 You find a 'core' in an apple. You find a 'corpse' in a graveyard. You find a 'corps' (with a silent '-ps') in the military. 'Corps' came to English via French - hence the pronunciation.
Marine here. -Marines take particular pride in being able to train and operate in harsh environments. My CO thought it'd be fun one summer to go on a month long field op in the 120 degree desert. Then I took mountain training in the Rockies that winter
These drill instructors care about each marine. When someone is struggling to a point of mental breakdown or quitting they talk to you like a normal person motivating them.
I am a US Marine and I can tell you the reason for the yelling is to simulate combat stress and yes you will learn from the yelling. Saying that you can’t learn is nothing more than a challenge for Marine DI’s. I did enjoy watching your reactions to the Corps. Semper Fi!!!
"I'm not yelling at you private, Drill instructors do not yell, we simply speak loud enough so that everyone can hear. THAT WAY WE ALL LEARN FROM EACH OTHERS MISTAKES!!!!"
Although one evening a couple of tipsy Marine Drill Sergeants started serenading my college roommate and I while we were in our dorm room. We leaned out of our second story window and there they were, leaning against each other, with their hats askew. I have to admit, they were awfully cute... and they can sing, too. LOL!!!!
This reminds me of my sister. In high school she was such a disrespectful little brat, but she enlisted into the marines because she didn't have anything else do do with her life. When my family and I came to pick her up at Paris Island...... OMG there was such a big difference. She used different language, she was respectful, even the way she walked was different. She had always had a disrespectful, rebellious gleam in her eye, but that was gone after those 3 months. She came back a different and better person. For some people, that extreme structure is necessary.
not necessarily, im in the navy and we had roughly the same numbers as far as women in combat. their physical training is actually lower because it is scientifically harder for women to build muscle.they dont typically get held to the same standard as far as physical fitness. However, they do get held to a higher standard in terms of mental capacity. women are generally smarter than men and can act more on the fly. one of my shipmates is and FC like me in the navy and she is way smarter than me. our job entails that we repair and operate the weapons systems in the fleet. when i get stuck she helps me out. Our operation runs as a team, we are built to run like a team.
True. The system is modified for women so the physical struggles are relatively similar to the ones the men endure; however, respect for anyone who joins up. Whether it’s a man or woman that takes a lot of dedication and mental strength. 25% is a huge improvement in female enlistment numbers. I wouldn’t call his remark a compliment, but I am quite impressed myself. Thankful for everybody who put their life on the line for my country. ✊🏼🇺🇸
American here. Didn't serve myself, but dad, uncles and grandfather are Marines. Pretty spot on in your assessment that the training is some of the most hardcore and grueling out there, and you'd never want to face them in battle. But it doesn't make everyone into an overly aggressive personality with mental issues. All of the Marines I know are some of the most level headed, intelligent and successful people I've encountered in my life.
As a Marine, retired now, I can say that all that yelling actually helped. In a way. It prepares you for chaotic situations. It also prepares your vocal chords for all the yelling and screaming in combat. You don't talk normally while people are firing automatic weapons and shit is exploding around you. There are moments when the training is more "calm", yes, but I'd say you are screaming or being screamed at for about 75% of the time you're there. And that's only the first stage of your training. After Boot Camp you go to Marine Combat Training (for disgusting non infantry people) or to the School of Infantry (training for us, magnificent grunts) for another 2 months. That's where we do all the fun stuff of digging fighting holes, patrolling for days in the woods, shooting a whole bunch of different weapon, etc. And then you get to the Fleet Marine Force, where you learn everything again in a slightly different way. LOL And if you go to Afghanistan like I did, you do specific training for it. So yeah, we're always doing one training or another. Semper Fi.
"Marine Combat Training (for disgusting non infantry people) or to the School of Infantry (training for us, magnificent grunts)" Glorious. I know a Marine and he'd say something exactly like that.
Also for the Yelling once again, it is the for the phycological part of it is to prepare them for all the yelling on the battlefield and stuff to make sure they can handle becoming the best of the US Armed Forces. Atleast that is what I believe.
Farmer friend of mine is a Marine. He grew up on 1000s of acres, and probably drove heavy machinery starting at about 10-years old. Since his service tours, he runs several successful businesses. To this day he has an AR15 in his truck window and rides his bike 100s of miles every month. When he went through basic he probably didn't look like much, but he understood the crucible and the mission. He is a hero and a badass! Semper Fi
I was in the Navy and the actual teaching and learning comes in after basic. That training can last anywhere from a couple weeks to 2 years depending on the job you got. Basic training is just that basic. Everyone goes through it and it is meant to put you in such immense pressure and hell that no matter how bad things get in the real world you can look back at your basic training and go if I went through that I can make it through anything. It's a shaping process not an actual learning process.
Correct me if I’m wrong, because I don’t know much about this stuff. Wouldn’t firing, even in the general direction of live human beings be completely against every single rule about handling a gun?
@@patrickalvarado7687 there are humans operating the targets. I'm a Marine, and I went though Parris Island in the mid 90's. Not sure about now, but at that time the whole company moved barracks to the rifle range. While half the company is putting rounds down range the other half is behind the firing berm, below the targets, operating the target and marking shots on the targets for the recruits firing. The targets were mounted on mechanical devices for the other recruits to move then up and down. There was no side to side movement for the targets at that time. Recruits also at that time didn't use the scope sights on the rifle, like the recruits were using in this video. We qualified at 200, 300, & 500 yards using iron sights. Semper Fi Devil Dogs
DeviousOstrich Its called the pit and you're behind like a half foot of concrete with at least a 3 feet of hill and dirt in front of that and you hold the target on a stick and put it in the air
Jamie M hey man thanks is for your service. My cousin who went into the marines served as an AT man. While he was in the berm one of those rounds hit the target funky and hit him in the neck. He got a pretty nasty scar from it but still went on to deploy but came back pretty messed up in the head but still an amazing guy
Mike Brown only Posse Comitatus prevents this and for good reason. We have a free and bloodless revolution every four years. We make our choices at the poll. The Constitution is a living document, it’s well that it is, we can change when we deem fit. Semper Fi!
The Eternal Hunters the thing I like about army medics is 1st my barber was one and unlike navy corpsmen they don’t try to take your temperature rectally, without a thermometer when you have a shrapnel wound.

Estonians and Finns (cousins) were some bad asses. The Finns handed the Russians their asses over and over .. small in size and didn't always win but when they went down they made the enemy pay in blood. Serious fuckers.
I’m a Veteran of the United States Navy. I was fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to be a SCUBA Diver/Collector for the Marine Biology Museum @ Point Mugu, California. I was too young to appreciate it as fully as I should have. Thanks for the videos, Artur.
My old football coach yelled a ton too. It helps you learn to focus despite chaos. I get it completely. When you can stay calm under pressure, it helps you stay alive.
In times of war, we US soldiers would be honored to fight by your side. Imagine going to protect an ally and getting to meet you. Very low chance of that happening but still, it would be awesome
You also have to remember, all American recruits are volunteers!

@@foxomexra well they wouldn't all be marines, if we were in a situation were we need some sort of conscription I think they would probably figure another branch or some way were the soldiers require different and not as much or cheaper tools. or by then they might have weaponry and gear that might be cheaper to produce. but atm. yeah jesus it would be costly

Theyll never drown out my thoughts.
Well stated 😎
As a Marine infantryman, I trained in Estonia for a month. It was beautiful! And I was impressed with the Estonian SF guys we trained with. Bunch of bad ass killers. Talon was especially gorgeous. I have no doubt you Estonians would give the Russians hell. We'll be right there to help!
The yelling isn't intended to teach. Its intention is to stress out a recruit to the max, in order to prepare them for the chaos and fear of combat. So that they will learn to do what they are trained to do despite being gripped by fear.
I've heard of folks having nightmares of being at bootcamp, waking up, and thanking whichever deity that they were actually in Guadalcanal, Hue, or Fallujah.
Spot on. OldSarge USMC
Well also they yell to garentee that you hear the orders because if you didn't it's not your fault but they train to tell that loud so you don't have an excuse
Yes, FEAR is the biggest enemy in a combat situation. The yelling does many thing to condition a person for ignoring the emotional interference and applying logical reasoning for survival. Every job requires some training, even digging a ditch. Training and conditioning will determine if you survive someone trying to kill you, ( Combat ) . Fear either gets you killed or makes you a coward. Yelling is immaterial unless it adapts you to control Fear and live so yelling can be important. USMC 1953-1973 " Vietnam Survival Degree " x2
Well said. I've heard several morons criticize the yelling as "inhumane" or whatever. Well guess what, war is not very humane and they're trying to prepare you so you can survive its sheer terror.

Jota 0703 rahhh
@@Veraxu1227 it's also so that you learn to listen to the orders, and not the tone of the voice giving the orders. you're supposed to carry out that order regardless of the way that superior talks to you. While it was toned down in basic for me (I was Army, not Marines) The way it works is the drill sergeants will give you an instruction block, for example, hand signals. The training block is hands-on, with whoever is instructing giving clear, yet stern instructions. When you move slow, or miss what they said, or fuck up, they yell, and then if the mistake is serious enough the platoon, or individual, depending on the issue, will be given remedial training. This is usually a "smoke" session where you preform physical exercises to exhaustion while the Drill Sergeant reprimands you and explains, in detail WHY you fucked up, HOW you fucked up, and WHAT needs to be done to fix the issue. You see, the yelling gives you a sense of urgency, but at the same time, doing it right. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. It clears any other bullshit in your head, any doubts, any daydreams, etc. You can only hear the drill sergeant's voice ringing in your head, and it works.
Due to them being filmed, they’re toning down the intensity.
The True Yuu Christ
They never show the physical abuse you go through being there, drowning in the poole for those that cant swim only last minute being pulledout, When on rifle range having fire ants poured on your back or while in the prone position having someone stand on your ankles, having the entire platoon slap the back of your head bc a DI said fix him, being made to hold/squat up one end of the rack up as a DI works your ribs for you, being made to go into the wall locker and DIs having the guide and squad leaders beat you. Cold nights in the river if your bravo company, being put in a footlocker and kicked down the stairs if your a small guy, being put into a high left knee with one rock or a magazine under your knee holding you up as you go through knowledge classes. Being put into a dryer then its turned on. These are all some of the things you'll see and have happen to you there that will never be shown that's why they're so many suicides. But you got to get used to chaos if you want to be a marine. Still the best time I've ever had.
James Smith my dad once told me a story of when he was a marine and his friend committed suicide cause he couldn’t handle everything they had to go through

@@legendaryhuntertutorialsti6713 beware the chancla
As a Sergeant of Marines myself who EOS'd (End of Service) in 2015, I would like to point out a few things as I watch this video. Time stamps starting at number 3.
1) The pronunciation of Corps in US Marine Corps is said as "core"
2) The yelling is to simulate the stressful environment of combat If you cannot handle the stress or make out what the Instructor is saying yelling at you like that then you will learn, one way or another.
3) 6:10 - I wouldn't call it brainwashing so much as it is obedience to orders. Brainwashing has a pretty negative stigma and it isn't the goal of the program to brainwash you. When in combat you need to move immediately without question when a superior tells you to do something or you and your unit may die.
4) 9:35 - I really don't know how it is over there, but females have their own standards to meet in the USMC. It is true that the average female cannot keep up with the average male do to how their body is made versus the male body for physical performance. It is worth pointing out that the female standard is equally as hard for females as the male standard is for males, so if they get the perfect 3 mile run, they earned it just as much as the males did for their perfect 3 mile run time, which is 3 minutes quicker.
5) 13:50 - Nothing, just wanted to say you are right on that. Tear gas sucks. Have to do it every year. Forced to breathe it in and all.
6) 16:00 - You're right there too. Recruits always have somebody in boot camp they hate that they want to bash their head in. This is the best moment to do it, if you are lucky enough to get that recruit you want to fight.
7) 18:40 - Okay so there are moving targets going side to side, but only on the second phase of rifle qualification. The first phase is all about accuracy with your rifle or marksmanship at a distance up to 500 meters. The targets you saw moving are actually only moving after each shot or set, depending if it is rapid fire or not. The recruit down the firing lane (safe from danger) lowers the target, marks where the shot was, and then raises the target back up so the shooter can mark the position of the hit, and adjust him/herself or the rifle accordingly. The second phase is about combat. Moving targets, shooting one in the head and two in the chest, etc.
8) 19:45 - Okay so don't ever say this to a USMC drill instructor. So the screaming does hurt the vocal chords if you don't do it right or do it too much. But really these Marines when they come home are friendly with their wives or husbands, and when they come back to their original MOS or job they had before being a DI, they are just like you saw them before they left. The screaming is just part of the job. I had drill instructors that I talked friendly with even as a recruit once during second phase on my way to church, but when we got back to the squad bay its back to the yelling. The recruits and drill instructors know this, it's just their job to yell at us, and it's our job to take it.
9) 20:40 - What you are looking at there is what is called IT, or "incentive training." This is used ONLY in boot camp, as if it is done anywhere else it is considered hazing and punishable by the UCMJ (or the Uniform Code of Military Justice), aka breaking the law. This incentive training on recruits is done for multiple reasons. For this case with the classroom, it is likely that those recruits were either asleep in class, talking to other recruits during class, or not paying attention. Think of incentive training for recruits as a sort of punishment or physically tiring time out because somebody was being a bad boy.
10) 22:05 - It is actually more simple than you may think. The recruits go through 3 different literal phases of boot camp that work for almost everyone I have seen. The first phase is to break you down, the second phase is to get you accustomed to your new life, and the third phase is to bring you back up again.
11) 22:40 - I'm surprised you didn't say anything here, but I just wanted to say yeah... The crucible sucks.
12) 26:55 - Yes. The yelling does get less and less over time, as recruits know how to not get yelled at, but even on the very last night we had in boot camp before that ceremony, we had Marine recruits get yelled at by drill instructors. The yelling never stops. Even after boot camp when you go into the "second boot camp" aka MCT or Marine Combat Training, the yelling doesn't stop. Even in your schoolhouse(s) and the fleet where you work your job the yelling doesn't stop. If you mess up, you get yelled at.
Hopefully this helps your knowledge of the US Marine Corps.
This needs way more attention, a very thorough and well written breakdown of it all

Grandfather was an instructor. That's just their talking voice, you don't want to see them mad.
The yelling is to give recruits a small sense of the stress and anxiety they will experience in the battlefield. No offense taken to anything you said. Keep up the great work.
Yeah once he gets deployed he will understand lol...in any situation firefight or not basic training or not you have to hear the orders one way or another...that one way being loud incomprehensible commands that become more and more comprehensible the more you're yeld at lol...the other being being yelled at under the hellfire of the enemy...cant give an order in a firefight by whispering

I love your channel. But just so you know, I wanted to address your “broken” comment (respectfully). Everyone is different so I can only tell you my experience as a former military dependent. My father volunteered for the Marine Corps during Vietnam and retired as a Master Gunnery Sergeant after 20 years of service. I never really interacted with him while he was on the job but in his personal life he was always a very laid-back, non-aggressive, and even tempered person. I’ve never even heard him raise his voice. He never even owned a personal gun or rifle. Growing up I often lived in military housing and we had lots of fish fries for my fathers friends and coworkers so I was around lots of Marines and I always found them to be very good and balanced people. I’m sure there are some broken people but I think that’s going to happen when you look at any group statistically.
My father was a Marine, He was very even tempered too. Never got frustrated just worked his way through whatever problem there was. Also I am positive that they evaluate the individual persons for mental/emotional fragility. They don't want people who would endanger the mission or their team..
My wife was in the Army, and she's a lunatic.
my grandfather was a WWII Gunny. He served as an AA gun captain on a destroyer. He fought against the kamikazes at Okinawa. He was the strongest broken man I've known with the exception of one of his longtime friends at the VFW who was one of the Chosin Few. Both were highly functional total drunks who took care of their responsibilities but were not all there psychologically. I witnessed both of those Marines and others randomly breakdown into tears seemingly out of nowhere. It wasn't the training but the fighting that broke them, the training probably helped them get back home alive.
Once a Marine always a Marine!
Ok, This is coming from a retired Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant. The brainwashing as you refer to it, is to teach them to follow orders when they are young and new, and don't know what the right decision is to make in a combat situation. One of the biggest differences in the Marine Cops and all other services is, after we finish boot camp and our military occupation school we are then trained to become leaders. In order to get promoted from E3 to E4, which is usually around year 2.5 to 4, you must complete 2 leadership courses. One is online, and the other is conducted by your unit command. The ability to make combat decisions is taught starting at the rank of E2. If your are a Corporal (E4) and the Sergeant (E5) in your fire team, squad etcetera is taken out, you need to be capable of stepping up and taking his place as the new leader. So, yes we brainwash" them in boot camp, MCT, and somewhat in MOS school, but immediately after that we start training them to become leaders.
Thank you for your service.
I would add that the US is not a military system. There is no mandatory service in our country. People volunteer to serve in the branch of their own choosing, or as is the vast majority do not serve in any public capacity at all. There may be arguments made about the benefits of doing so, but at the end of the day there is nothing compulsory about service. Certainly, there is a draft system. However, this has not been utilized since Vietnam and is also gender imbalanced.
The modern military does not need draftees, and in my opinion as a Navy Enlistee, is also detrimental to the overall functionality of our armed forces. We gain strength BECAUSE people want to be there, they learn what the real world stakes are (in a way that is almost impossible to learn as a civilian without joining a major contractor), and they blend with their associates while offering background, cultural and religious insights that might be overlooked. We pride ourselves on being the highest levels of neutral, as long as basic logistics can resolve your specific issue. The quality of your work and your fitness (at least as far as I have influence) are the sole defining factors in your evaluation. Nothing else to me matters.
It also is not brainwashing, It is more like an equalizer. You begin at the same level as everyone else, and you pass under the same conditions as everyone else. That means at the end of bootcamp, everyone is the same. Anything after aka your specialty, your performance, etc. is from you alone. The drive to excel and the esprit de corps is from within, not from some magical brainwashing.
It is hard to explain without going through it yourself. I think the simplest explanation would be that you are instructed to pay attention to details and to follow directions, but also not to follow directions that would be morally or ethically questionable.
This is what I just explained too in a comment. It’s not brainwashing it’s preparation for war. Ooh-Rah Gunny.
Awesome comment, Gunny. Wish the whole country could believe and fight like Marines. We are are rare breed that has to be taught and nurtured with great systems, programs, and leadership.

When I was in boot camp in the late 80s, I had to go through the gas chamber 3 consecutive times because the drill instructors thought I wasn't snotty and choking enough....good times
Dang dude, that’s crazy, I’m speechless
Thank you for your service
They didn't mess with me much in the gas chamber, but they did literally throw me off the rappelling tower. Not for any reason either, I wasn't one of the scared ones. Literally just looked at me and yelled "hope you tied that shit right, bitch" and physically picked me up and threw me off...for fun I guess.
In the Navy I did the Gas Chamber during boot and several more times while in the fleet over my 20 years. Good times, cleared out my sinuses every time.
It's a great way to clear up any stuffy nose
I think the reason I keep watching these videos is that Artur is always smiling.
The yelling is part of the tear down. The whole point of boot camp is to tear a person down and rebuild them as a Marine.
Japanese said it would take a million years for the Marines to take Tarawa....Those Marines took it in 72 hours
Some say it’s a world record.
Oorah!
Course the Japanese, also thought their emperor at the time, was an “actual god”, and was therefore never wrong, nor able to be defeated by anything. FACT. Course I’m sure any present day Japanese person would say that belief was “more ceremonial” than literal. However after studying that period in Japanese history, I disagree. The citizens of Japan were told (and obediently agreed) to arm every man, woman, and, child healthy enough and fight to the death rather than surrender to US troops. Which was US explanation to the public for using nuclear weapons, and the fire bombing of Tokyo. Because saying “We wanted to test it out” makes for bad PR.
Also, in those 72 hours, a lot of marines died! But they HAD PERMISSION
Haha Americans still think they won the World War. Breaking News, it was in fact Russia. If The Not so good 'ol US of A ever get involved in a real war on their Soil they will capitulate in a week. Russia lost near 30 millions in WW2. The U S have lost less than one and a half in all the Wars they have ever been in and half of those in the War of Independence. They have never had their civilians Bombed Murdered Raped Tanks flatten their cities etc its easy fight wars remotely with almost no casualties and using tech rather than boots on the ground and withouth having to worry about your families being wiped out by the Enemy
Fun fact: Bob Ross used to be a drill sergeant. After he retired and started painting he said he would never yell again. That’s why he has a gentle voice
He was Airforce though, not marine Corps.
Eh-lien yea so he was whispering as a drill sergeant. He actually got louder after boot camp
There are no Drill Sargents in the United States Marine Corps. They are drill INSTRUCTORS
Yea but he never mentioned Marine corps, just said he was a drill sergeant, didn't mention what Branch
Bob Ross is known for producing beautiful landscapes, his soft-spoken demeanor, and bushy facial hair. ... During his twenty years in the Air Force, Ross reached the rank of Master Sergeant. He often commented in "The Joy of Painting" that his landscape choices were influenced by his time in Alaska.

I've known many Marines and none of them thought of themselves as ex-marines. "I am a Marine" forever!
So says my Marine son: once a Marine always a Marine
Once a 🇺🇸 Marine always a Marine. 21 years in the Corp.
I retired from the Marine Corps the yelling actually gets less and less as you progress thru Bootcamp. In the beginning of Bootcamp the yelling is used to break you down and it also helps prepare you to handle chaos in battle but as you progress through training the yelling starts to subside it never goes completely away but it does start to become less. When you actually get into the Fleet Marine Force's doing what ever your MOS ( MOS is basically your job in the military ) is there is no yelling at you. Because as you pointed out you can't learn by being yelled at. Love the video and love hearing your perspective on the Marine Corps the respect you have for us Marine's is thanked and i for one along with many others respect for your military and your personal military service.
Plus, once you graduate, the drill instructors are super cool to you. It's all an act, that they actually are trained for quite a while to do. But yeah, the point of the yelling is to break you down, and snap you out of being a civilian, then they gradually build you back up towards the end, but as a Marine. It will also save your life since you learn to remain calm under extreme stress. I wasn't even able to go to DI School because of my documented anger issues. Had to do anger management at one point in the Marines.
@@koanikal There's no way I could do that - I just don't get mad. More likely I'd burst out laughing and get into serious trouble. The more serious, the harder I'd laugh.
It's not even a nervous thing; it's like in the moment for whatever reason, I find anger directed at me the most hilarious thing.
For the most part true, but if you're in the infantry MOS... and under horrible, immediate, leadership, not quite as true.
Robert Smith is correct. (Of course...he retired from.the Corps). I served 6 yrs in the Corps. Recruit training breaks down the civilian mindset and teaches the traditions of the Corps. (Honor Courage Commitment as example). Afterwards they switch to teaching where they explain why and then practice practice practice...until perfection. That is what makes the USMC is the greatest war machine in history for a force as small as it is.
@Adele Gibson
1) I can fend for myself
2) I've laughed through concussions; I'm an insane person and a masochist, you don't know me.
Contrary to your statement about the analytical capability of U.S. Marines; the reason Marines are so successful and feared in battle is due to their high level of reasoning, and tactical skills, as is proven during the Crucible portion of their training. These people are not only deadly, most of them are absolutely brilliant. My son served as a U.S Marine for eight years, and is now a computer scientist.

Hey Artur, if you ever want to talk to a fellow Estonian who immigrated to the US and went through Marine Corps bootcamp, let me know. I went through that hell 10 years ago myself.

Btw all the yelling is to simulate the “fog of war” so you can stay calm and lever headed in the most stressful of environments.

Very true. I was about to say the same thing. You have to know how to conduct yourself "in the sh!t." Hell week is always the best. You learn to pay attention to every detail.
@Chad Klaren This is a big thing. People don't know this but you can drop out anytime during basic/boot camps. Most people that can't cut it leave during this time.
We had over 20 people drop out of my Basic Training class for the Army. People who were not fully committed or can't handle the pressure.

interesting kinda fact, most situation the officers in the US military are used to reign in the troops. An Israili special forces commented how US troops tend to just keep going and pushing harder when the leading officer was taken out of commission, it was the officers that kept them in check. that most military's tend to slow down or stop when officers were taken down but our troops just pushed harder. like i said, that was an observation from an outside military person looking at US troops

Yeah, we push leadership down to NCOs FAR FAR FAR more than any other military in the world. And USMC then goes further and does it even more than the other US branches. You might literally have an E-3 planning, prepping, and leading an assault on a fortified enemy position. All the officer did was say "hey E-3, in my larger plan I need your squad to take this position" (because yes, sometimes E-3s will lead squads in USMC...billet over rank). E-3 might literally then take things over from there and run the whole show. And is even taught to then continue exploitation if they see it, so they might then just continue going and take out entire units they were never asked to just because they saw opportunity.

@Vivek You realize it’s just a mask, right? They’re only as hard as they need to be in order to be good enough for the ground line. As soon as the training’s over, they drop the facade and are generally funny and awesome people.
Real bullies would be terrible drill instructors because they get emotionally involved with their tormenting and would either be too busy bullying to teach them to be soldiers or they would lose interest quickly after the first couple weeks.
Both result in worse soldiers who are going to die on the battlefield and will end up taking a few of their friends with them. Friends that the drill instructor wants to keep alive and is willing to be as hard as necessary on these guys to keep them safe.

@@MysticZefer lol my dude, youve killed my sides.
As a Marine I appreciate you for taking time to watch and review our training. Thank you for your service and I appreciate Estonia as an ally.
Heya, Artur! I always perceived it this way: *most* Marines are the ones carrying ammo and weaponry out of an amphibious vehicle and right into a hail of weapons fire, so the most important thing to teach them is the ability to intently, singlemindedly, and unbreakably focus on their task at hand. Kind of opposite of what you were saying, I think they train all Marines this 'steel focus' idea first, train their bodies to match their minds, and *then* teach them how to shoot, fly an aircraft, drive a tank, or eat food with utensils and not their hands. ( Sorry bruddas, Navy here so I gotta throw in *some* grief!)
All of the other branches do the same thing but to a much, much lesser degree than our blood-striped brothers and sisters. My heavy training consisted of firstly getting in shape, working on swimming and flotation devices...hell, did you know a Navy sailor is taught how to take off their pants, tie the legs in a knot, and fill them with air to stay afloat? We ALL learned how to fight shipboard fires, and how to dog down hatches ( that means shut doors and tighten down their locking latches if you didn't know ) to protect against high waves or nuclear, biological, or chemical attacks. Then we were taught about our future jobs in the Navy after that. In my case, I went on to Aircrewman training and learned advanced swimming and deep water survival, land survival in case of getting shot down, Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape training ( POW camp simulator ), and then advanced training for inflight operation of aircraft systems.
I suppose every training system has it's good and bad points, but I thought that I would at least try and explain it a little bit from how I was exposed to it back in the 80's and 90's.

@@mikeharrington878 Yes. Exactly like a child
My dad was Navy in 1943, and my uncles were in all branches at that time (Big families back then). I grew up next to Great Lakes NTC, which I’m guessing you knew well. Our high school science class had tours of some of the classes, where I saw my first oscilloscope. I also had a fake ID which we used to buy cigarettes at the PX for 25 cents in 1965. Security wasn’t a top issue, I guess. That base was kind of laid back, except for the small contingent of Marines that served there.
Which just reminded me-in the late 50’s and early 60’s those Marines would stage an “amphibious assault” from the shore of Lake Michigan. They would advance across a couple hundred yards of beach parallel to the shore, and finish by fixing bayonets and throwing a satchel charge into a sandbag bunker. Us kids would swarm the area afterwards collecting M-14 shells and clips. I think they did that on Memorial Day. Today they’d use a drone run by some 18 year-old video game player ten miles away.
In memory of my dad and 2 uncles, and all you sailors-GO NAVY!

"You can't teach anyone by yelling all the time."
There is an initial instruction, and then everyone around you is doing it as well. If it isn't settled yet in your mind, there will be yelling... and then something awesome happens.

You get the little mental tweak that lets you process and improvise while stressed or distressed. That's the point.
Michael Free exactly what’s more chaotic then a gunfight?

He did explain that "Unless" explained beforehand, Yelling wont help. Which is mostly true, not 100% true all depends on the person. But only yelling does not always work unless you first explain how to do this thing they wish for you to do. :D

“So much aggressiveness, so much violence, not good for life.” At Parris Island, we were taught to be aggressive, to be violent, while still maintaining the ability to think.....under the most chaotic situations you might find yourself in during combat. That is why the drill instructors are creating an environment of severe anxiety, to teach us how to function and successfully complete whatever the task/mission may be, no matter what is going on around you. We never lose focus and we never fail.
yeah it may be harsh training but that saves your life.

@@DaOriginalGrandPanda Our AF was a completely different branch back then. My family is an Air Force family and back in the day, they still had a much more "Army" flavor to them. I've heard many stories from my grandfathers and uncles of how they weren't afraid to beat the shit out of you. As intense as the Marines? Probably not, but I guarantee you our predecessors didn't have the same basic training that we've gone through. I never had to take a gut shot or back hand from my MTI.
During class time, if someone starts dozing off, you’re told to slap them in the back of the head as hard as you can. And you’re rewarded for it.

Jerrod Spakowski that’s pretty goddamn funny tbh
We had a guy rip a very loud fart during class time. The drill instructors made the two on either side of him stick their noses in his ass and inhale then run to the back door and blow it out. They had to do this until the smell was gone. Funny shit to see
I was in the Army, but had friends in the Marines. It was similar in both branches, break the recruit down, then build them up. More so in the Marines. My instructors were all airborne NCO from Vietnam War. There was yelling, but we never expected hugs or pats on the back when we enlisted. The Marines are a special breed. Several childhood friends underwent training at MCRD, it was tough, but they benefited from it, even after returning to civilian life. Gives you confidence in what you are capable of.

swords are massive multipliers and basically remove the differences between male and female in combat...
again.. Hema sports today... actually practice and utilize real hema martial arts.. these sports are MIXED GENDER because SWORD dissolve the physical difference..
sexism is why women werent allowed on battle field in the past.. they were property for most of written history...
also women on average solve their disputes in less physical ways.. were ass boys on average like to tussle with each other..
this is why men are bigger.. u not bigger cause u had to defend against "saber cats" u bigger cause men fight against men..
most animals in terms of size of the sex.. that is more related to males competing for males thus males are bigger then females as females dont compete for mates... just like u have some mammals were the females are larger BECAUSE they need to compete against other females for male mates...
then u have some mammals where both female and male are psychically the same size and weight and its cause they do not compete for mates...
FYI: hands DID NOT EVOLVE TO FIGHT OR PUNCH THINGS... they evolved to grab things.. then cause we weren in trees anymore our hand changed to suit our new environment... that is the purpose of hands... its not to beat the shit out of things...
the ability to punch.. its like birds foot.. it can do things it didnt evolve to do...
also back to the saber cat shit...
MODERN DAY HUNTER GATHERERS.. still operate just like those of the past.. GENDER ROLES werent as big as a thing..
both women and men hunted... women with tools like spears etc have NO NATURAL PREDATORS other then their own men.. and same with men.. they have no know predators other then other men or women with weapons..
not only that.. what hunter gatherers didnt and dont do.. is make the women leave her family and go with the man...
either or can go with each other or both leave and go out on their own...
literally have a MAN and a WOMEN.. that link up.. and BOTH leave their group to start their own group..
if ur logic was true.. this would be a silly thing to do.. a single man going with a women and leaving his larger group of men and women would be silly...
society via RELIGION.. is inherently sexists.. religion is BY MEN and FOR MEN...
when u go back to proto pagan religions.. u clearly see "gender roles" were almost non existent.. and it was this way in early paganism..
u see it in their gods... as it became more and more organized.. then eventually Monothiesm.. it got more and more sexist..
also should be noted.. one of the biggest theories of how men came to dominate is related to child morality rates and pregnancy..
infant mortality rate was grossly high back then.. cause desiese and etc.. so women were in a perpetual state of pregnancy.. which made them VULNERABLE TO MEN.. not wild animals..
so u had that plus religion going on at the same time.. bam.. 1000's of years of sexism..
and it only stopped when atheists and feminist via humanism started combating religion at state and federal levels wehre it was mixed into laws and policies..
conclusion... not a singly piece of genetics in u evolved in relation to saber cats or lions or bears lmao
@@InanisNihil Females are weaker and smaller than men genetically, I dont know why you went into history because, it is the truth and you have to accept it.
@@Dr_Mundo ok.. clearly ur not that bright... nothing i said claimed women werent on average smaller...
the dude mentioned SABER CATS.. as if that has literally ANYTHING TO DO WITH HUMAN EVOLUTION...
a wild animal.. has ZERO TO DO WITH HUMAN MALE AND FEMALE SIZE.. and HUMAN CAPABILITY..
I LITERALLY GAVE PROOF.. that WEAPONS literally negate the effectiveness of size difference between male and female humans.. again HEMA... this is replication REAL WORLD MARTIAL ARTS... men and women compete TOGETHER because WEAPONS literally remove the difference..
then i mention Hunter Gatherers.. literally the majority of time how humans lived on EARTH.. there was not women stayed "home" while men hunted..
"Nearly all African hunter-gatherers are egalitarian, with women roughly as influential and powerful as men"
so what now.. will u continue to literally fking lie and push bs modern sexism that women literally didnt fking go out an kill wild dangerous animals..
im sorry.. butt the reality is humans before organize religion just WERENT SEXIST and they didnt actively create a religion in FAVOR OF MEN which literally made men ACTIVELY OPPRESS WOMEN...
u just said yourself.. "I dont know why you went into history because, it is the truth and you have to accept it."
yet HISTORY OF THIS is the TRUTH yet ur sitting there NOT ACCEPTING IT..
so me actually looking at CONCRETE EVIDENCE and HISTORICAL EVIDENCE as well as data taken by science is somehow NOT TRUTH... science and evolution actually supports the main theory that MEN and RELIGION literally took advantage of pregnat women... and thats how they asserted dominance... during the time early agriculture started.. as people settled... and started amassing personal wealth... when where reduced to baby makers... as in men started using their physics strength to abuse women... and pregnant women who clearly are looking out for their unborn childs safety will avoid confrontation and submit with no fight..
again further proof.. butt im expecting people who make silly claims with saber cats and have literally no knowledge of ACTUAL hunter gathers.. or religious history and its pretty evil shitty impact on humanity would probably make up bs to deny this and other vids like it. lmao
ruclips.net/video/V56dVFBCQcc/видео.html
so if u wanna deny and ignore that REALITY and pick and choose and literally only hold to the argument the men are physically stronger which is true.. dont just stop there.. u need to say men are also overall shitty and just terrible creatures especially to their own women AND CHILDREN...
butt u know.. people pick and choose.. preach the good ignore and explain away the bad.. thats pretty fking religious... and men did create religion... and not for good reason either.. xb
My dad is 68. He served in the US Marines in the 70s. I was raised on his stories of boot camp at Parris Island. He always refers to his time in the Marines as "the best four years of my life that I'd never do again." He means that fondly. He's fiercely proud of his service. He flies a USMC flag outside of his house every day. He credits the Corps for getting him off of "a bad path" (which he has never expanded with me on) and getting him to grow up. He ended up on an electronic counter-deceptive measures unit, which gave him a lot of his training that led to him becoming a software engineer after he was discharged. I once said to him that I couldn't understand how he could handle having people yell at him like that and treat him the way they do there. He said that it's only as bad on yourself as you make it. If you sit there dwelling on why it's happening and how pissed off it makes you feel, you'll be miserable. If, on the other hand, you come to a point where you realize it's just a mind game they're playing to see how you respond to extreme chaos and extreme pressure, it doesn't bother you as much. You see the necessity of it, so you adapt accordingly. He said some people know that going in, some have to learn it whilst already in boot camp, and some never learn it at all. He claims that's the secret, though. It was his, anyway. :-)
Can you ask your dad if Marines are still nicknamed "Teufelshunde" (Devil Dogs) from the Battle of Belleau Wood in 1918?

The whole purpose of the screaming is to invoke stress. This is done to simulate combat. So when the time comes combat is relatively easy, and you don't break down and freak out.
Also there is a practical reason that once your a Marine you are always a Marine
Semper Fi
My boss, a retired Marine, gave another employee one simple piece of advice when he was headed for Parris Island:
Be fast
Be loud
Don’t volunteer for anything
By then it was already too late, he'd volunteered to join the Marines. lol
My hats off to the USMC. I went through U. S. Guard Basic Training. It was hard, but it was nothing compared to what Marine recruits go through.
FYI, The Corps in Marine Corps is pronounced "Core", its cool hearing your feedback.
Marine corpse would be horrible
I'm planning on joining the US Army
Was about to say that. Drove me insane hearing “corpse”!
Means exactly the same thing: BODY. Corps is supposedly the living body; corpse, the dead one...?
@@alanhardman2447 ? Ok
A few things to keep in mind regarding this portion of USMC training:
1. This is the very first stages of training.
2. Breaking down the recruit is somewhat analogous to hitting the reset button.
3. This lets the Drill Instructors build them back up in the mold of a Marine.
4. This gives a foundation for all Marines that is later built upon further for combat training and military occupational specialty (MOS) training.
5. Combat exercises in Boot Camp are not meant as the sole combat training given. There is an entire follow-on school for that.
6. Enlistedmen (term also includes women) are taught instant willing obedience to orders, because hesitation in combat leads to casualties. Yours, or worse, your comrades.
7. Enlistedmen are also being taught to use critical thinking by being thrust into situations they aren't prepared for, which forces them to think under stress on how to handle such situations.
8. Perfection is demanded, with the expectation that it won't be achieved, as a method of pushing recruits to set and work towards constantly higher standards.
9. Positive reinforcement is, in fact, given. It isn't frequent, which reinforces that something was done at a high level when it's done.
10. Drill Instructors take pride in seeing their recruits succeed against all odds, even if they don't show it immediately.
11. Drill Instructors take it as a personal failure if a recruit does not complete Boot Camp. I've asked three different DI's, each gave the same answer, each one sincere.
12. Attrition is not the mission for enlistedmen, though it is for Officer Candidates. The goal is to get each recruit to a point where they can successfully meet the standards.
Other things to note:
1. Yelling doesn't continue the entire time. It happens, but it's reserved for when you genuinely mess up.
2. Your instructors after Boot Camp and Officer Candidate School (OCS) actually act like teachers when it comes to something technical. This includes infantry tactics.
There's a lot more to it, and it doesn't make as much sense from the outside looking in. Not immediately anyway, and not from a 30 minute video. It's a culture as much as it is a branch of service, and one that you have to have experience with to fully understand.
I would like to add to your points. The "explaining" that must happen does happen. It was personally the hardest part for me.... staying awake when shit slows down.
@@tenkei000 Oh, hell, yes that was brutal. And what's worse is that you would be in this semi-conscious state where time blurs or just isn't there.
And then there are times where you just blank out and become lucid mid-task... Which makes you fuck it up because you were executing on autopilot, and becoming lucid throws it all off. lol
Dude you put that perfectly. If he went through it he'd get it.
Provided they don't lose their mind.
J N that’s super goddamn neat man thx for educating us
Screaming and yelling comes first. Analyzing comes later....after the kiddies break from their lazy, comfortable habits. They are, of course, taught to think and operate as intelligent professionals, but first comes the part where they are made to realize full-well, this is not a game. This is the US Marines.
The fact is, these recruits aren't being prepared for the possibility of being called up IF the need arises. They are being prepared for the FACT that they will be seeing combat, and they need to be able to meet that stress with a clear head. Otherwise they will die, and maybe get others killed in the process.
And if you can't handle the stress of being yelled at, how are you supposed to function with the enemy actively trying to end your life?
Exactly!. I trained in the Army in the mid 1980's, and I lived what was in the video. It's not just you jarheads, and I trained as a tanker! I am also looking at retirement in 12 months - not what you call unstable.
Crack is the best. Lazy fucks under 1990. If you enlisted before, you are a child.
I used to work as a helper doing carpet work when I was in high school during the summers the guy I worked with was an army drill sergeant he was the nicest guy you ever met in your life. Never yelled or raise his voice when off the job. He gave me his drill sergeant hat when he retired.

Bingo, rather have them break in Boot Camp than in the heat of battle.
Nathan Whitfield and then with the SEALs they’ll pretty much kill and you bring you back to life and to think SEALs usually come from the Marines
Unfortunately, this type of training probably the high number of mental health issues that veteran have. What is good for war is probably not good for civilian live.
@@kucingmiumiu854 agree, and if the training doesn't irreversibly change a person then being sent to war does. Either way they're not cared for well when they come home, a lot of them become homeless.
They yell at the recruits in the US Military branches to teach them to react and understand well in stressful situations.
Yes! That is correct. I remember one time during my basic training, I was getting smoked by my DI. He was screaming in my ear, asking me some BS. That's when I told him that I can not concentrate while he is screaming at me. That's when he told me: "You can't concentrate when I'm screaming at you? How the fuck will you concentrate when grenades and bullets are flying over your head???"
This was back in 2004 and I remember this till this day.
and for the fact that they have so many people to talk to, if instructions are to be clear they have to speak up lmao
I don't buy into the unity of stress theory. Social stress is different from battlefield stress. Anger is different from fear.

These drill instructors care about each marine. When someone is struggling to a point of mental breakdown or quitting they talk to you like a normal person motivating them.

This reminds me of my sister. In high school she was such a disrespectful little brat, but she enlisted into the marines because she didn't have anything else do do with her life. When my family and I came to pick her up at Paris Island...... OMG there was such a big difference. She used different language, she was respectful, even the way she walked was different. She had always had a disrespectful, rebellious gleam in her eye, but that was gone after those 3 months. She came back a different and better person. For some people, that extreme structure is necessary.

Him saying it’s tougher for women is actually a compliment because we’re still doing it successfully despite the extra effort required
not necessarily, im in the navy and we had roughly the same numbers as far as women in combat. their physical training is actually lower because it is scientifically harder for women to build muscle.they dont typically get held to the same standard as far as physical fitness. However, they do get held to a higher standard in terms of mental capacity. women are generally smarter than men and can act more on the fly. one of my shipmates is and FC like me in the navy and she is way smarter than me. our job entails that we repair and operate the weapons systems in the fleet. when i get stuck she helps me out. Our operation runs as a team, we are built to run like a team.
It’s not tougher for women. The physical standards are lowered for that reason.
True. The system is modified for women so the physical struggles are relatively similar to the ones the men endure; however, respect for anyone who joins up. Whether it’s a man or woman that takes a lot of dedication and mental strength. 25% is a huge improvement in female enlistment numbers. I wouldn’t call his remark a compliment, but I am quite impressed myself. Thankful for everybody who put their life on the line for my country. ✊🏼🇺🇸
American here. Didn't serve myself, but dad, uncles and grandfather are Marines. Pretty spot on in your assessment that the training is some of the most hardcore and grueling out there, and you'd never want to face them in battle. But it doesn't make everyone into an overly aggressive personality with mental issues. All of the Marines I know are some of the most level headed, intelligent and successful people I've encountered in my life.
As a Marine, retired now, I can say that all that yelling actually helped. In a way. It prepares you for chaotic situations. It also prepares your vocal chords for all the yelling and screaming in combat. You don't talk normally while people are firing automatic weapons and shit is exploding around you. There are moments when the training is more "calm", yes, but I'd say you are screaming or being screamed at for about 75% of the time you're there. And that's only the first stage of your training. After Boot Camp you go to Marine Combat Training (for disgusting non infantry people) or to the School of Infantry (training for us, magnificent grunts) for another 2 months. That's where we do all the fun stuff of digging fighting holes, patrolling for days in the woods, shooting a whole bunch of different weapon, etc. And then you get to the Fleet Marine Force, where you learn everything again in a slightly different way. LOL And if you go to Afghanistan like I did, you do specific training for it. So yeah, we're always doing one training or another. Semper Fi.
MCT is your 2 months of Infantry School in 2 weeks.

When he went through basic he probably didn't look like much, but he understood the crucible and the mission. He is a hero and a badass! Semper Fi
I was in the Navy and the actual teaching and learning comes in after basic. That training can last anywhere from a couple weeks to 2 years depending on the job you got. Basic training is just that basic. Everyone goes through it and it is meant to put you in such immense pressure and hell that no matter how bad things get in the real world you can look back at your basic training and go if I went through that I can make it through anything. It's a shaping process not an actual learning process.

@@patrickalvarado7687 there are humans operating the targets. I'm a Marine, and I went though Parris Island in the mid 90's. Not sure about now, but at that time the whole company moved barracks to the rifle range. While half the company is putting rounds down range the other half is behind the firing berm, below the targets, operating the target and marking shots on the targets for the recruits firing. The targets were mounted on mechanical devices for the other recruits to move then up and down. There was no side to side movement for the targets at that time. Recruits also at that time didn't use the scope sights on the rifle, like the recruits were using in this video. We qualified at 200, 300, & 500 yards using iron sights. Semper Fi Devil Dogs
DeviousOstrich Its called the pit and you're behind like a half foot of concrete with at least a 3 feet of hill and dirt in front of that and you hold the target on a stick and put it in the air
