    Some of these recruits made a career out of the Marine Corps. Some probably served as DI's themselves, and are retired today!

    Kind of like a time warp to me to see videos like this. Seeing all the recruits here and knowing that if any of them are still in they are 1st Sgt's or SgtMaj's by now. Kind of interesting to me to see it from that perspective.

    It was so interesting that learning basic DNC wound up being the most difficult thing to get anyone to do! Yet, we had good drill sergeants to the point that, by the time the day was done, my platoon was moving with precision, as if a well-oiled machine. Then came this part of it, the manual of arms, and we were smoking all the other platoons! When it came time for the final drill competition on the last day of Basic Rifle Marksmanship, we killed everyone. Those were some great memories.
    These guys look a touch rough at this point, but they still look pretty sharp: full credit to their Drill Instructor. Hooah!

      Are you guys talking about the Berkeley Bridge? I walked either 2 or 4 hour posts (can't remember exactly) on that bitch a few nights. Really screwed with my sleep. One time I was so tired I didn't wake up at reveille, and the DI dropped or threw my footlocker on the deck beside my head to jar me awake.

    • @rickojames
      @rickojames 3 года назад +1

      Amen to that brother. I was #1 in the 2nd Bn scullery in June. Caught all kinds of hell from 2nd Bn DIs. A couple of times they'd yell for "#1 in the scullery" and I'd come running out of the pot/tray washing area and report, only to have dishes or silverware thrown at me because of real or imagined dirt on their eating wares. It sucked....long frigging sweaty days. We washed a gazillion trays and utensils during and after each meal, and had to break down and clean the steam cleaners and washing machines for inspection. The only upside I recall is we were away from the platoon all day, and got to eat with the messmen before the recruits came to chow.
