Alignment is on point. Good shit. Not easy to get 60-80 high school graduates in the same page like this within 3 months, along with rifle range, knowledge, customs & courtesies, physical training and overall ATTENTION TO DETAIL.
Yes, it is amazing how this intense training can transform someone within three months. I was there in early 73' and it's on my bucket list to pay a visit to "PI, the land that God forgot."
I swear, if I’m ever in a coma, let me listen to this platoon with their DI drilling. I’ll wake up I assure you. I sometimes miss the island crazy as it sounds. Semper Fi.
Although I did my recruit training at MCRD Parris Island during the summer of '66, I eventually became a Drill Instructor at MCRD San Diego in 1972 and served there until 1975. My greatest tour of duty - the one I enjoyed the most during my 26 years of active service - was being a USMC Drill Instructor in the 3rd Battalion at MCRD San Diego. To this date, just thinking about those times, it brings a smile to my face. Heck, I was single in my 20's, had a body of "twisted steel and sex appeal," and knew how to use various swear words as nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, and what else have you - I mastered them all!!!!! Haaaaaaa...
@@DERKONIG12345 OMG - there are so many cadences out there, where to even begin, but OK - here is one at least. Remember, I was a Drill Instructor 50 years ago, so many cadences have been forgotten - but this one somehow stuck out in my mind. "Ah knew a girl in New York City - she had beer in both her titties....." I do remember one little item that I used to have my recruits say every night before lights out - here goes: "Every day in the Marine Corps is like Sunday on a farm, every meal is like a banquet. Over 200 years (then) of hell, death, and destruction - Marine Corps!!! Marines can stick more in and break more off than any other man, from any other land - and what's nicer is that we can do it neater and sweeter with less peter Amen..." They always loved that!!!
I was in 3rd Battalion I co. In Nov 75 staff sgt Laura, Daugherty were the two DI's I can remember still today! ( They may have been Sgts at that time?? )
Here are some. I remember as a recruit, , ," I know a lady who lives on a hill she won't do it but her sister will. Then there's the one about " mama and papa were laying in bed, mama rolled over and this is what she said,,p.t mmgood. Feels good etc, or. "I don't know but I've been told Eskimo $&##@@ is mighty cold and that's the few that I can remember 😊
wasn't even my drill instructor but I loved his cadences everytime we all went to chow, RAH SGT, Its LCPL Taveras, tall dominican PLT 1049, SDI SSGT Estrada
Beautiful. Statues of Discipline. When drill is in perfect sync like that, it's a thing of beauty. I struggled a little with it , but I didn't mean I couldn't appreciate it from the outside.
@@Mbenguegangalready have! Brother you sent tingles down my dag gone spine! Semper Fi! I have a favor to ask if a fellow Marine. I’ll be starting the fire fighter academy next month and I’ve forgotten so many of these cadences. I’d like to pick up a few to use. I love this one but can’t make out all the ditty responses the recruits are responding back. Can you share some knowledge?
@@pablosanmiguel5802Every platoon has different ditty’s, so it’s hard to say, but it’s mostly just counting and aye sir. You also don’t say anything after like phase 2. The ditties just help you remember what you’re supposed to do.
Hit 1:00 and PAUSE. To all non Marines wondering how Marine recruits learn to drill so well. Look at the top left hand corner of your screen at what looks like a volleyball court with no net. That’s how.
They follow the cadence of the drill instructor. He’s actually saying commands but in an exaggerated sing song way. He’s saying Left Right Left but exaggerated
Nah we got canteen belts held together by safety pins and hopes. The Di’s knew those things were absolutely trash and never got bad at us for having shity equipment. Hed get smoked fs if he had broke formation to pick it up tho.
I had Senior Drill Instructor Sgt. Gibson, 1092, Charlie Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion at MCRD: PI, seeing the place again is a beautiful sight, seeing that it being a green flag tells me that this day must have been great for many, but also oh-so very terrible. I got Med boarded a couple years back and have memory issues now, but I can remember some of the ditties we had, and I love the Discipline they have! Semper Fi!
The rifle is the guides, either the DI will carry it or another recruit will. It appears to be range week as well judging by their mag pouches on their belts. I’d be more concerned for the guy who dropped his canteen. They are marked with your name on it. He will pay for making the DI go get it, that sand pit looks like a good spot
Is this second phase when they have the ammo pouches on their war belts that’s how you know you’re getting close to the end at least that’s what we were told at the main chow hall near the auditorium classroom by those recruits.
I had two black D.I.s in 1970, and one of them was our Senior Drill Instructor/Platoon Commander, and he called the best cadence I've ever heard or had the pleasure of drilling to..
I marched many miles. Never made a sound. 3rd battalion dont sing lil diddies. Straight out LRL, cadence brought from way down deep in the ball sac. Semper Fi.

The ARMY is a joke, hated the ARMY. A try hard warrior's, an adult version of boy and girl scouts.
They’ve literally been doing not for decades lol

It’s like a well-oiled machine. All parts running smoothly. My respects to these young men and women and their courage to serve! Great job by the DI

That’s how.
Do they just follow in the foot prints of the first person?
@@Quoteory
No.
They go to the sand pit until the Drill Instructor gets tired.
They follow the cadence of the drill instructor. He’s actually saying commands but in an exaggerated sing song way. He’s saying Left Right Left but exaggerated
@@user-mv7kr2hr9h

How much dropped gear is the DI carrying?😂. Beautiful cadence!
