I enjoyed the hell out of this video and I'm not a Marine nor a US Navy Submariner, just a grateful civilian. Thanks to both of these "elite" groups, neither of which I am equipped to do.
1st Battalion, 6th Marines from 1989-1993. I still have my French Fourragere along with other Marine Corps plaques and awards displayed on my wall. I've been out for 24 years and there is not a day that goes by that I don't miss everyone of those crazy bastards! Semper Fi
wow, very proud of these Marines. good to see young men that still want to fight for America. GOD bless them all, and GOD bless America. JESUS loves you all.
The First Sergeant at 1:25 was a drill instructor at Charlie Company on 2004. He told his new Marines that he would not stick around when they graduated to shake hands. True to his word....he left. Lol. Real nice guy, but like many of the highly enlisted Marines, there is always a story. Oorah 5th Marines.
The 2nd Infantry Division of the US Army were commanded twice by Marine Generals during WWI. BG. Charles Doyen and MG. John Lejeune. The 2nd Infantry Division had Army infantry regiments and Marine infantry regiments that fought some hard battles in France. The Division was awarded the French Fourragere. The Army's version is more red than green than the Marines. The one that the Army wears is the WWII version awarded to the 82nd Airborne Division, 2nd Infantry Division, 3rd Infantry Division and other US Army divisions that fought in France for the second time. These were unit awards for infantry, artillery, and some combat engineer units in those divisions. I have mine from my service in the 1/508th Parachute Infantry Regiment which was in the 82nd Airborne Division as a regimental award.
I served in A Co. 1st Batt. 6th Marines from Oct. 1960 to Dec. 1962 as a Rifleman and a Fire Team Leader. I wore the French Fourragere AKA the Pogy Rope. I extended for 21 months to get into Aviation ( Avionics Technician- 6611 ). Yeah, I ended up in Viet Nam at Chu Lai at the beginning ( May 1965 ) Hey, I never did like Ground Pounding.
My son, Gavin Wade Price, gets his tomorrow. He’s a Combat Engineer and enlisted in June 2022. Nothing can make a father more proud than to see his son make the decision, on his own, to become a Marine. If you believe in God please pray for my son. Times could not be more uncertain.
Foxtrot Co., 2nd Battalion, 5th Marines was my first unit assignment following recruit training and advanced infantry training with ITR back in 1965. I landed in Vietnam with F-2/5 on 12 April, 1966 in a wetnet landing (using landing craft called "poppa boats") off a troop transport, APA 237-USS Bexar. Oh such fun.... (not). Good outfit! Have had words with other Marines in the past at times when they made light of the French Fourragere (aka "the pogey rope") while never having served with the 5th or 6th Marines. They didn't understand why I was so upset about their cheap jokes, and we almost came to knuckles about it. That was MY outfit, and you don't trash it or the Fourragere we wore.
I was with 2/2 and while alot of cats in our unit trash talked the French Fourragere with you guys and 1/5 I always thought it looked fucking sharp. Oohrah brother.

"Retreat, Hell!", comes from the French trenches of World War I, when a Marine officer named Lloyd W. Williams,2/5 was advised by a French officer to retreat and replied, "Retreat? Hell, we just got here!"
The 5th and 6th Marine Regiments were awarded the honor for their actions at the Battle of Belleau Wood during World War I. All members of those regiments are authorized to wear the fourragere.
Dress Blues is a Ceremonial Uniform. The green dress uniform is for official duties like reporting in to your unit, working at official gov installations or inspections. Dress Blues are used for celebrations like the Marine Corps Birthday however you can also wear the Green Uniform since the Dress Blues were not issued you had to purchase them. If you were the Honor graduate you were issued a set of Dress Blues. I believe that has changed and now all Marines are issued Dress Blues and they are the Uniform for Graduation from Marine Corps boot camp. The 8th and I Silent drill team uses the Dress Blue uniform to perform in since it is both Ceremonial and it's a recruiting tool. It's also a goodwill gesture. Recruiters also use the Dress Blues Uniform since it's a recruiting tool. The Red background with the green rank is only used on the Green uniform. The Red background with the Gold rank is only used on the dress blues. There is no difference in ranks it just makes it stand out more.
Just a small FYI and factoid - the correct pronunciation of Belleau is “below” not bel-lah . The actual name of Belleau Wood in French is “bois (bwah) de Belleau.” Semper Fi!

That’s so gay. That’s what US Soldiers wear. Stop that shit. I leave the marine corps and it all goes to shit. What I love about the corps is the uniform doesn’t have a lot of unnecessary ornamentation that separates the other. They do the best job in showing oneness.
Dang, they didn't have that when I was in the unit. You check in and they just toss you a bag with it inside of it and then tell you to go f off. This is total propaganda. They don't do things like this at all. 2007-2015
I have to admit...my eyes teared up while watching this. And I'm not a Marine, I'm a retired US Navy Submariner..

The most beautiful uniform ever existed
Ppl love the dress blues but them alphas are clean man
I think members of 5th and 6th Marines that saw combat should be able to keep their fourragere even after they PCS to another unit.
Doesn’t matter cause once they are veterans they are def gonna keep it anyway lol
The Army has them too.

So what is the French fourragere like how do you get it and what does it mean
The 5th and 6th Marine Regiments were awarded the honor for their actions at the Battle of Belleau Wood during World War I. All members of those regiments are authorized to wear the fourragere.
wewd thanks man
That means FIRE in all conditions and sometimes NO BACKUP!...You can't find this meaning in Kakapedia 😎
To Mr.Schneider
can someone tell me why sometimes they wear red patches on their sleeves and sometimes it's gold, and the colors change? do they stand for something?
ihurricane7 gold is army red and gold is the dress blues
+Airsoftlyfe what is the difference between the dress blues and the green ones they're wearing in this video? thanks!
Dress Blues is a Ceremonial Uniform. The green dress uniform is for official duties like reporting in to your unit, working at official gov installations or inspections. Dress Blues are used for celebrations like the Marine Corps Birthday however you can also wear the Green Uniform since the Dress Blues were not issued you had to purchase them. If you were the Honor graduate you were issued a set of Dress Blues.
I believe that has changed and now all Marines are issued Dress Blues and they are the Uniform for Graduation from Marine Corps boot camp.
The 8th and I Silent drill team uses the Dress Blue uniform to perform in since it is both Ceremonial and it's a recruiting tool. It's also a goodwill gesture.
Recruiters also use the Dress Blues Uniform since it's a recruiting tool.
The Red background with the green rank is only used on the Green uniform. The Red background with the Gold rank is only used on the dress blues. There is no difference in ranks it just makes it stand out more.
You are comparing two different uniforms, the Dress Uniform and the Service Uniform.
The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy.

0331, Bravo 1/5, I wore it.
how does that first sergeant have those combat V's but no Combat action ribbon?
It's more than likely under his lapel. There are several ribbons hidden
The Combat Action Ribbon is there. He definitely went to combat from what I have read and learned about Sergeant Major Novak.
