- Great Lakes, Ill., is the home to the Navy's Recruit Training Center. It is where young men and women come in as civilians, from many different walks of life, and leave as Sailors... ready to become part of a global force that serves on, above and under the sea. Join a recent group of them as they arrive in Great Lakes to begin this journey.
on the bus heading towards great lakes! im merely minutes away from experiencing this!
Big Phil damn bro soooo hows life like now
Seriously, was it chill like this or uh, a major misrepresentation of boot camp lol
@@josephdvorsky2279 I forgot about commenting here lol...it was a good run. Boot camp was but a blink in my 4 year navy career. as far as accuracy of the video, yeah it was pretty on point. don't sweat it though, it's only 8 weeks
@@Thecolonelshinn ill be heading into boot camp in 3 days, currently in bootcamp quarantine .. I'm excited and can't wait to get started 14 days of 1 hotel room I'm unable to leave, going stir crazy
Big Phil yooo u gotto update on how it was👀 cuz I’m going in September..especially with all this quarantine going on
Only those who have gone through this will know all the swearing and ass chewing that has been cut in this footage
U damn right
They are relentless
in this politically correct world can they even do that now?
SubVet 8286 Lol yeah.... you think you’re going on vacation or what? Lmao
I lost count how many times my Chief yelled fuck in a minutes time.
5:44 making HM1 in 6 years is damn impressive.
I was in aviation and made E5 in three years
@Never lose sleep over the small stuff Stuff it
Paul Vaughan barely any corpsman make rank which is why it’s impressive to be first class in 6 years
Paul Vaughan ok and?
@@paulvaughan9101 how?
I want to say THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!!! This brings back many memories for me! I served in the 80's!
These RDC's are pussycats compared to what I had to deal with in the Mid 80's boot.
The galleys are in each ship, coffin racks, camo, geez....
Looks like when I went. June 22, 2000 Division 332. Still in and I loved every minute of it. Navy motto at the time: Let your journey begin with Godsmack song
My son is there now. SO PROUD!
8:35. You can tell by that slouching that he came in there with an attitude. I bet he was walking two inches taller, when he graduated.
I cant believe this was me 4 years ago, this day sucked but I have good memories from it, and made friends for life, people that I when through boot cam with then through corps school and field med I still work with, its crazy..
I graduated from RTC Orlando Jan 1978 and things have really changed in boot camp. The CC's used lots of profanity when we checked in and got our uniforms and through out training. It was a different time and I made through. It was an experience I will never forget and i'm really glad that I chose to serve 29 years in the UNITED STATES NAVY!! With Honor Courage and Commitment. GO NAVY BEAT ARMY.
Kevin Miller basic training is about breaking down the individual I don't see any of that here. I went at the end Vietnam War in '74 VN ENDED APRIL OF 1975. THIS IS ALL P.C., IN NON P.C. WORLD.
Kevin Miller Jonwomack.usnavy
You
@@johnw8984 I'm sure it has changed, but keep in mind that they aren't going to be calling recruits cocksuckers and mothefuckers on camera in an official promotional video. lol.
Although things do change you have to remember this is an official promotional video. It’s gonna look sugarcoated as with any military boot camp documentary lol
Kevin miller what was your rating? You really served for a long time? Best wishes.
Ahhh sleep cheif. Lmao man I'm excited! Shipping hopefully in February!
Those rdc's are to nice
Really good Chiefs!
Even from here, you get the feeling that you can relate to them!
Goooooooo **Navy!**
@bubblybrooke92 trust me. you will be FINE. I was nervous as shit. I barely could do a push up, and ran like...half a lap. They'll help u. That's what they're there for is to help you. I just graduated boot on the 29th. My final PFA? 1.5 miles in 13 min 54 sec. 60 push ups 55 situps. Trust me when I say you'll be FINE.
Damn good memories U.S Navy 8 year Veteran E4 2007-15, my RDCs were rough & vicious like Marines, 2 Chiefs E7 & a Petty Officer 2nd class E5 🇺🇸😎‼️
I understand that the Great Lakes is a huge body of water, but I find it funny how the branch that trains people to defend our Oceans trains them in the Midwest, about as far away from the ocean that you can get in North America
Tradition maybe Great Lakes was the best place and a central location
I leave for Navy boot camp June 2nd 2011. Watching kinda scares me, yet excites me. I already know my RTC Maxim and 11 General Orders. Which will help a lot. Hardest part is leaving the life I know behind, and starting a new one.
i told my chief goodnight one time...he beat the shit out of me for an hour
Brendan Gail 😂😂😂
Most likely just shouted at, not literally
Weird our whole division made a joke or whatever of saying night to our sister divisions chief and she never beat us for that she just laughed and said shut the fuck up and go to sleep
damn boot camp was actually pretty fun after the first two weeks, actually kinda miss it lol, its the other side of the great mistakes that sucks lol, im sure other ETs and FCs can agree with that haha.
Boot camp is a definite culture shock. No matter how prepared you think you are, you're going to undoubtedly struggle at first. I was in a integrated Division, and both divisions had trouble at the beginning. You'll get used to the Navy life by 3-1 or 4-1 depending on how hard your RDCs are. Good luck Future Shipmates.
-STG3 (SW) Page
It’s over before you know it. Just graduated December 1st. For those going in, be motivated! Your RDCs get paid to yell and beat you so grow some thick skin and embrace the suck. You don’t realize but it changes you into a better person. Teamwork is key, pay attention to detail and don’t fuck around. Best of luck!
Don't let this shit fool you. This is watered down to calm your nerves, but the moment you reach RTC, you're getting your ass chewed out for nothing.
Anyone remember boot camp form the late 80's? That is when boot camp was boot camp lol. Great mistakes that place was a trip. In my day the company commander was not your buddy and did not hold your hand like now. I still remember no drinking on the green--------still have that saying in the galley? Navy 86-90 west coast navy long beach ca operations specialist third class.
Brings back memories...ahhh
Did seem alot softer than they were on me- they did not even have the boot camp video to give us ANY idea when I went- all surprises...Fair winds and following seas...New Recruits, Thanks for what you do!
8:35 that chief looking at the guy standing at attention 😂😂 he was ready to go off once those cameras weren’t rolling
Bring on June 27th!! I can't wait!! just saw my bf off and I was like, "You lucky ass! gettin to go before me!!" Good luck everyone going, and God Bless!
i remember doing this in 2001 during the summer time. my rdc was chief house at the time. every time someone would get leave, he would play his song "another one bites the dust". just watching this brings back memories, especially the first night/day. i heard they softened up boot camp now. when i was in, they were screaming and cussing at us, and hazing us also. then there's battlestations, where we had to run around base all night long. after graduation, we had liberty call. that was nice.
im 15 yet i am dead set on military. most likely the navy. one brother talked to an air force recruiter. the other will join the army. my uncle was a marine so i feel i should be the first to try the navy.
AHHHH THE MEMORIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that day/night was so nerve wrecking lol!!
our daughter is a proud graduate of Great Lakes RTC - No cell phones @ boot camp, no time for it n e way. If u bring one they'll have u ship it home the first night with your personal belongings so no reason 2 bring it, except for maybe while waiting at the airport. You can have it back upon graduation so ask any family coming to bring it for u (You'll have tix for 4 guests @ PIR- Pass in Review, aka graduation). Good luck & thank u for your service!
If you read this before you leave: You will NOT sleep your first night there so take every opportunity to nap before you land at O'hare! Good luck and God Bless! I had the time of my life as RCPO!
b-but where is the screaming? the smoking sessions? the painful welcome?
this video brought back allot of memories
This reminds me of when I went to boot camp in Dec09. Fun times. I remember being told we had to drink 8 canteens worth of water a day. I barely had 5 canteens worth. I had Petty Officer Scott and Petty Officer Kelly. They were tough but pretty cool talking to during holiday routine. They're probably already chiefs by now. I'm actually going to be putting on BM3 in a week or two since I made rank.
Shit you must be a senior chief by now but I was a boatswain mate I got out but passed the bm2 exam quota was low
my brother graduated on October 5th also! he is now in Pensacola for his a-school studying to be an aviation ordnanceman!
Wow, they are so nice for the cameras
I leave May 18th 2011.. Nervous as well. Can't wait though.
I am studying for the ASVAB now. Hoping that i will be able to experiece this soon by next summer & honor my deceased Grandfather who was career Navy.
I am leaving September 7th I am really excited and nervous at the same time
I honestly don't believe that people that consider them selfs "thugs" or "gangsters" could ever be in the military, they would to have professionalism and have the ability to follow orders even in stressful environments, the people that join the military are able to work as a group for a common goal instead of being a kid who thinks they can own the city when they cant even wear there pants in a correct manner.
i don't know why, but when i watch this now, it looks like its easier than when i went in. anyone remember the part where they say hydrate and you have to down the entire canteen and they have a trash can in the middle of the barracks, for when you puke? then there's the parade deck. i remember standing at attention in there for several hours i think.
I remember this back in 2002
“Chief and I - we go HARD IN THE PAINT!” LMFAOOOOO
I can't wait until I'm there.
That guy at the airport was in my division, and was supposed to be at my training command, but let us just say, he is a lesson in not screwing up once you graduate.
Do as you are told, make sure your buddies do the same, drink water, easiest eight weeks. Get through and do something real in the Navy.
RCPO. Recruit Chief Petty Officer. You want it? Be on your game! Start memorizing all your general orders, maxim, Sailors Creed, What really makes you stand out to be chosen for RCPO is your military bearing and how you handle yourself (responding calmly and with confidence that comes with knowing you know your stuff!). If you are among the first to walk into the rdc office using the procedures by the office door, that could do it! Listen to WHAT they say, NOT how they say it!!!!!!!!!
Man, I remember that long, quiet bus ride from Chicago/O'Hare to RTC, but the only thing different was we had to run inside that building as soon as we got off the bus. There was no walking lol
On November 21 it will be 30 years since I reported to Boot Camp.....in Orlando, FL. Very different back then.
As I remember it, the most effective DI's for me were the Filipinos, scared the shit out of me! Arrived at 1 am at GL very cold 4 Jan 82. My company became 001 of the new year. EMC Spivey CO. Commander. Very fond memories of the experience.
Boot camp was easy. I was a bit disappointed. Only hard aspect was constantly being tired. Super, crazy, unbelievably tired. On arrival in Pensacola, it took 3 weeks of sleeping every chance I got to recover.
ah the ever fun days of a recruit. its been over 2 years since RTC
"SLEEP!"
"ahhh sleep, chief."
Me and my sister company Master of Arms use to request MTU x3 cause we were bored in boot camp. Atleast MTU was fun with twisted sisters and sharks
ME TOO. See you there
Wow!...about time they updated the Navy Bootcamp video. I ship out for bootcamp 20110316...just a few more days before I go thru. Navy salute or shoot!
I wanna join the navy man
A corpsman first class after only 6 years damn she’s lucky
Service should be compulsory, minimum four year hitch from HS graduation (or date of dropout). That, more than any dementia afflicted politicians, would make America great again.
We've got enough fucked up people in now who don't belong in the service that only end up joining for the college benefits, they show up and don't want to be a part of the team or do what they are supposed to. No need to add to their numbers through compulsory service.
Yeah, no. Because nothing says freedom like compulsory service right?
lol they still have those same three barbers cutting hair that were there when i went back in 2003
Hooyah! im leaving for RTC on Oct. 25!
Try the gloves on.. If they don't fit, you must acquit...
everyone of my BASIC TRAINING sergeants had DONE AT LEAST 1 tour in VIETNAM. THEY DON'T CURSE AT THEM ANYMORE HOW P.C. IT'S ALL BECOME.
leaving february 14th :/ it couldnt come sooner
Couldn't have said it any better myself. Unless boot has changed in the last couple years.
Wow! what have they done to my beloved NAVY? the company commanders sound nambi pambi camp counselors.
That's bull that guys get shaved heads and girls get to keep their hair. What happened to equal treatment of men and women?
Hahahaha damn right😂🙏🏼
Head shave is gonna be nice tho no hair in the way
The only time women don’t want equal treatment 💯😂💀
me i'd prefer not to see the ladies with shaved heads, other areas are just fine......
My daughter had to get her hair cut off because she had highlights
I remember a lot more cussing when i went through the 'night of arrival'. There was also a lot more screaming
the first week will suck during P Days, once your training starts it wont get better, but you will feel the change and you get used to it. Wake up early, get your hygiene done before revilie e so then you are squared away. Yes your seabag will be heavy, you will get blisters, there is no sitting the first week.
I wish my RDCs had been this nice lmaoooo
looks tough.
oohrah, semper fi.
I wonder if this is watered down... I am not sure with all of the comments saying it is watered down.
Lol @ the "ahh sweet sleep" anyday now I'm finna be there
This is all for show it's nothing like this when you actually go lmao. The yell and cuss still.
ill be there July 9th
"This is the Navy. We don't have any bad asses over here." lolol
I have a problem with authority and being told what to do and from the moment they started telling me to get against the wall I would be like "why?" Needless to say I would not make it a week there
Alyssa Brown then you better straighten up if you want to join the military bc if you do shit like that there will be consequences
You need to take that chip off your shoulder. It's about teamwork in boot. Asking questions like that won't get you anything but, trouble.
Cant wait. Shipping on sept 1.
Leaving may 29th :) rating as a gunner's mate :D
“This is the United States Navy... there are no badasses here”. LoL
“Ahhhhh sleep chief” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I didn't know how to swim so I joined the Air Force and some green berets thought me how to swim in Vietnam. Lol
i went last year and its not hard at all, well the lack of sleep blew but it wasnt detrimental. im almost done with builder a school
its exactly like that at first. then shit changes when u get to ur barracks and meet your rdc's
at 5:10, its almost the end of the all nighter and you struggle so much to stay awake haha
dickerson was my battlestations supervisor!
I saw dragon lady. the lady who slams the hair trimmer against your head!
ah the memories...
I heard they toss you in water your first day. I can't swim, I'm not trying to die my first night
Nahh...I just graduated boot camp in January. We didnt do swim or see water until a month or month and a half in. The first night is walking around getting all the crap youre gonna need for your time there. You're up for like 48 hrs straight...
Kim Carpenter maybe now they hold them by the hand before they throw them in???HAHAHA
I remember running battlestations...ran all over the damn place haha.
Wow they get phone calls! Didn't get that in 1979!
i'm trying pass the asvab test haha, but i really wanna be part of navy team thats for sure u.u
I like to join the Navy but I didn't like staying on ships.
Ship duty is way better than shore duty. Less B.S., better food and everyone is relaxed.
Oh, sunnnnnshiiinnnneeee....
IM SO NERVOUS I LEAVE IN AUGUST
Kayla Laird How did you do? Still in?
@NatedogJr That is a good point, it very well could be the PC version. I hope so to be honest. If you want to join, join for you and not your father. For me, it made me grow into a full adult and gave me perspective on life. If you join, make sure you learn a trade that you love AND will help you find employment should you decide to not re-enlist. Remember, bootcamp is a process and its a mind fk to get you thinking different in relation to military service. Good luck to ya Jr.
Funny how the RDCs are so nice I dont recall that haha
I’ve met the Asian man a few times at meps. He’s hard but he’s cool.
Oh, the memories. There was WAY more yelling than this. In fact I remember someone getting their urine sample chucked across the room because they failed to follow orders! =)
This guy they first meet at the airport sounds like a flamer lol
Thankyou sir.
Are there always this many people at bootcamp?
