- Hey guys, I'll be giving you a tour of the U.S. Marine Barracks on, Camp Lejeune, NC. Just keep in mind you're not guaranteed that you will be living in a newer barracks, you might end up in one of the older ones. But at least you have somewhere to stay. Hope you enjoy the video.

My father was a Marine. He was strict on us (he and my mother had five girls) but gave us life lessons that we all keep to this day. I have MUCH respect for the Marine corps.
Mine too! I’m so thankful for him. I always thought he was an asshole until I’ve gotten older and I’m so thankful. I was born at Camp Legeune and lived there for a while so it’s cool to see it again. I haven’t been up there in years and years lol
A good portion of us were moved into those newer barracks but a lot of us including myself remained in the old black mold barracks due to limited spacing. Those of you who got the 4 star hotel experience were extremely blessed
It used to go by rank.
Black mold builds character.
This was my old barracks when I was stationed on Lejeune. We were actually the first ones to move into it back in 2016 when it was finished being furnished. Exceptionally better compared to our old barracks in French Creek.
what unit? had many memories at fc478 myself
I lived on c street on lejuene we got a upgrade to our barracks while away on deployment so was nice to go back to no black mold
I was at FC in the 1980s. The open squad bays had transitioned to rooms. The FC fitness center was a house full of gym equipment. Now it is a fully blown facility where you can walk everywhere as a POV is a luxury. Your home is not a barracks, it is now a college dorm.
Why do marines have long hair and look like pussies now?
Wow! I was stationed at Camp Lejeune back in 1967 - '68. Then from 1969 (returned from Nam) to 1972.
While writing this I heard you call a rack a bed and the head a bathroom 😂 I am happy the barracks we had back in the 60's in the 2nd Marines and 8th Marines area are now BEQs. As a former Company Gunny I was thinking of a Field Days and the Skippers Friday Inspection. Oh, you said closet. I yelled closet! I would have called it a locker. Did you say dumpster instead of shit can 😂
All jokes aside, I am very happy our Marines are living good. Good job Marine. Semper Fi
Damn the Marine Corps has come a long way since the early 90's.
'90s??? '70s here and I can't believe this snowflake crap.
The crappy barracks are still there; this guy is living in the brand new ones bc he’s probably a POG
@@ChrisLichowicz Remember the "H" style 2 story squad bays mainside and the rifle range? Camp LeJeune has evolved. Camp Geiger was awful back in the 70's . Dilapidated WWII style single wall construction squad bays with common head and showers in another building. February 1975 was freak'n cold.
Not much. Dude showed the MEF barracks 🙄🙄
@@ChrisLichowicz I was there at the beginning of 1970 to June 1970. Squad bays, concrete floors, single metal racks with a standing metal locker. Gang showers and shitters with metal dividers. I put in for westpac orders just to get out of Lejeune.
I about crapped when I seen this. I was in heavy guns 1/6 in the 80's. Damn has things changed. Now dealing with cancer but thank God the VA is taking care of me.
Amazed at how nice the enlisted barracks are now. About time.
No kidding. No cold air coming through the door. No concrete walls. And a fridge that can hold more than you. No more waiting to take a crap. Pool tables that CAN be used. Best part is that they smile more.
I remember when we upgraded from the metal racks to the wooden racks. This is a HUGE improvement.
Nope they’re still pretty trash these are one of the few that are good
Looks new and improved....but as Marines they’ll find new and improved ways to fuck it up. Can only imagine the games that could be played field daying and inspecting a place like that.
Ed Radil , Yeah they can get dumb
Oh no not a field day!!!!
Keep it going! My older brother took me on a tour in 2007 of Camp Lejeune. He's a retired Master Gunnery Sergeant and served for 27 years in the Marines.
Wow. I was in the Navy in the mid 70's and at that time the Marines were still living in WW2 quonset huts and one bay barracks. Nice!
I lived in both of those MT FUJI JAPAN " the huts"....open bay barracks Camp Swab....Okie😎
Geez, I wish we had facilities like this in the 60's-70's. That would have been friggin HEAVEN.
Not all barracks are like tbis on Lejeune. Matter of fact 3/2 is like the only ones that are like this. I have your old barracks lol. Black mold and brick walls. A/C? Heat? Nah
Don’t worry sir there are still plenty of busted out, dead hooker, black mold, crime scene riddled OG barracks in the rotation lol!
They definitely earned it. Boot camp, grunts training.
Remember in the ol'days it was kuwanso? huts. Watch "Heartbreak Ridge" with Clint Eastwood. A blast from 1983 or 1986.
@@magalirojas8189 Quonset huts - I'm well acquainted with them from boot camp at MCRD-SD and ITR in 1970. At Camp Pendleton my barracks were built pre-WWII, two story wooden structures with open squad bays. My brother was in the Navy at the same time as me and I would visit him at the Naval Hospital in San Diego. He was in what looked to be a college dormitory. It was pretty damn nice compared to mine. The barracks in this video clearly outclasses what he had.
Just don't drink the water there.
The irony that the barracks looks better than some college campuses yet civilians think Marines live in FOBS all day and are “uncivilized” 🤦♂️
Jason Mata , facts😂
Wow, that’s not bad at all!! June 1st is my ship date
It all depends. There’s garrison life and then there is field/deployment life. I’m glad though that the funds are being allocated properly for garrison and that the living conditions are getting better...because Marines used to live like shit and were bottom of the totem pole for priority with barracks living.
lol you should see my baracks. disgusting
@@jonnyrose1288 mine look like a fucking prison cell
God bless you and protect you. 🙏 thank you making this video. I dropped my daughter off at airport this A.M. on her way to Camp Lejeune. She's my HERO! 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
I was there in the early 90s. The barracks have definitely improved drastically. I was in the French Creek barracks. They were smaller, didnt have refrigerators or microwaves and the beds were definitely not as nice and it was three guys per room. But it was still some of the best times of my life. Thanks for your service!!
Same, French Creek, 2nd Med Battalion Motor T, 1995
I was in 3rd bat 8th marines barracks in 91 to 96. We had to keep clorox on hand back then ....
Same 2nd MLG LS company
Same for us "doggies" at Fort Lewis WA in the 80's.
I was at Geiger and Lejeune '88 '92. Deployed 4 times and always had to stay in open squad bays when we got back. These new barracks are nice. It's changed a lot.
Open squad bays went away for the Air Force and Army in the 70's except for training units. Not sure about the Navy.
Stationed at Geiger with 3/8 ‘86-‘90, went back in 2024 to see my son graduate SOI, not how I remembered it, but brought back memories.
My son lives in the older ones and they look like a rundown hotel from the 70s. I guess grunts don't deserve nice things. After all my son is just a 0311 designated marks man who takes out high valued targets. Sorry if I sound salty but the first time I visited I was stunned. I thought your building was a hotel!!! He's in the barracks across from the the chicken shack (chow hall) he's on his first MEU but I guess he will be back in the crap room when he comes back. He does not complain and he love living with his brothers. One thing I have noticed is grunts have a strong sense of brotherhood. And have each other's back 100%
My grandson is also a "311" or Infantry man. His barracks room is made for 2 but has 3 men. Proud of him: He earned E-3 within his 1st year! Ooh-Rah!
Years ago, my fellow Marine said grunts were on the go 24/7, day and night. I kind of doubt they hardly use the barracks. We made the best memories out of those old barracks especially waiting for a washing machine; only 3 for each floor.😫
We never ever had breakfast. That was unheard of until the 1990's in Courthouse Bay, Camp Lejeune, NC when Marines complained and were heard.
@TrellTheGreat thank you for making this video. My late father was a Montford Point Marine. I grew up in Jacksonville, and still live here. I so appreciate you for doing this, because I have been wanting to see what the new Barracks look like from inside. Thank you so much! Stay safe, and God bless you.
Wow!!! We had only 3 washing machines & 2 dryers per floor and 4 man rooms for E 3 and below..but you Marines deserve the nice stuff...ooh rah ..semper fi ...
I was The first group that moved in to those Barricks at Wallace Creek and they are very nice, a big upgrade to our old ones which were terrible, black mold And leaky roofs. Being infantry and living in Air Force type barracks was the shit
💯
The old barracks experience with catwalks is better. I feel bad for you guys. We could just step outside our door to have a cig. You guys have to walk a mile and take an elevator. Plus no mattress can be thrown off etc.... The partying on the catwalks was second to none.
Trell, Congrats on this wonderful video. I am jealous of you guys Barracks. I was in Camp Lejeune from 1978 to 1982. Big change for this beautiful barracks now. Thank you for sharing. Semper-Fi.
Ooo rahh
79 with 1/6 in the old wooden white barracks, thank god I got accepted to MSG school and rotated out.
Wow! I was there for several years in early 80! I was Corpsman! The Marines stayed in open squad bays, section off in platoons! Racks were set up like bunk beds! Swept and mopped cement floors! Wall lockers!
I'm amazed, so much improvement since I was in. We had guys that hid their nunchucks and blow guns in the AC vents
Yea, that wasn't a good place to hide the weed though!
Do a video on like your life before you enlisted and why ..like how did you feel when you went to see a recruiter or when you told your family
Team Marines , Thanks for the video ideas, I really appreciate it.
I was with 8th and 6th Marines at Camp Geiger. We still had open squad bays. I worked in the comm center, half the time at night (as it never closes), only to come back in the morning to a noisy barracks where you could barely get any sleep. The heads outside the comm center were so old. There was like 20 toilets and urinal tubs out in the open with no privacy at all. They started to upgrade everything just as I was getting out.
I was stuck on Geiger for about 2 years. The school cadre often tried to pull crap until our MGySgt told the school to leave the personnel of other units ALONE. We were in the back street of Geiger as it headed toward New River Air Station.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHOS SERVED OR IS SERVING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!!!!
My son is in these barracks right now and they are deff nice, they even have a gdamn parking garage.
I'm happy for the young marines that get to sty in them though and glad the corps is taking care of you guys and your living spaces.
I just had to say something… I was a 1959 Jarhead and I am speechless and that’s a good thing after seeing this. All I will say is WOW.
I was at Camp Lejuene 1974-77 H&S 1/2. The only thing my barracks and yours had in common………..Barbasol shaving cream!!
I'm going to have to come back and see the changes . It's sure changed since the 70's .
New subscriber. Barracks look great, wish we had those when I was in 1973-1977. I lived in the open squad bay; Area 1 towards the old hospital. Proud of you young Marines.
My Gentle Pitt Bull , Oorah
Jesus! What a great barracks. Was stationed at Camp Lejeune in 1965 with 6th Marines 3/6. Our living accommodations consisted of squad bays with bunk beds with a double wall lockers in between. No privacy at all. Communal bath rooms,eight “shitters” side by side with. Nothing like trying to take a dump with someone doing the same thing less that two feet from you with no partition between you. One big shower with maybe a dozen shower heads. Maybe 60 Jarheads per squad bay. Only E-6 and above had a small room.
On payday nites we would take the “vomit comet”, the last bus back from JVille back to Lejuene and wake up the whole squad bay turning on the lites and and raising hell. What great freaking memories. Semper Fi.
I was there in 1993, its changed a lot.
Part of the barracks experience is hanging out on the cat walks. Your son is lucky. These new Marines will never know the experience. I lived in the old ones with the catwalks. Many great times hanging out on them.
The catwalks were where all of the action were when off duty or weekends. It was the scuttlebutt, the horse play, the music, the grilling, the hanging your clothes off of the side to dry or boots out by the door the walking back and forth in between others rooms. The Clutter of furniture left out during field day And just letting off steam in general
Damn I’m an 11 at Kanohe Bay in Hawaii, way nicer then our Bricks haha. Keep it up brother
Bruce Kimball , Thanks bro
Well Kbay has pretty nice BAQ’s in fact totally new from when I was there in the 1980’s! Albeit, even then we were tearing down the old school open squad bays and building 3 to 4 man college style barracks back then!
Just got my place packed up. Selling my car this week, I’m 23 nervous about this but I’m excited to make the change. I’ve done the college life and living on my own working a 9-5 but so far I’ve found nothing but disinterest in all of these things. I’m hoping the marines infantry will show me I at least can be miserable with other people the dorms look like they could be a good time but hoping my Roomate doesn’t suck
Gahdamn! Looks like a vacation home! We had lockers not closets, no fridge, no microwave, no kitchen sink, racks had to have green wool blanket , no hats or figurines allowed out like that, walls were brick, no desk, floors were tile that had to be waxed every field day. The head was nothing like that, had a glass door that had to be polished ... You have it cake walk.
A. Diaz , It just a different Marine Corps. The Marine Corps is really deep in being a peace time Marine Corps so thing are different.
Wow! This would be almost Air Force standards back in my day (1995-99)...incredible. Swing by HP 550 behind 10th Marines HQ bldg., I bet it hasn't changed a bit! Semper Fi!
I was in the US Army and was stationed at Fort Campbell, KY. We had our own rooms my last year in. However, before we moved into new barracks, we were living in Vietnam Era barracks. Yet, we still got our own rooms there too. Otherwise, I wish you the best of luck during your time as a Marine. Hooah!
Ft. Lewis WA 1984-1986 two and three man rooms for E1-E4
My first Barracks at Camp Pendelton was an open squad bay with racks and wall lockers between the racks, never had that kind of luxury in the 4 years I was in. The closest thing to it was when they brought in portions to the SGT. squad bay to separate the sleeping area in the squad bay. This was at Quantico in 1972. A lifetime ago. We also got rid of our bunk beds and given a twin bed. LOL
I been thinking bout joining the marines and these videos are very helpful, really appreciated bro.✊🏽
💪🏽
POG life at it's finest. Our barracks had a swastika on it when the other dudes left for deployment lmao Water always backed up.
Big step up from the three man rooms, wall locker and one desk of the 80s. Oh, and no corridors. Everything opened outside. We had a steakhouse, Burger King, Bowling alley, movie theatre and the BX.
Ooo rahh
I worked at the Brig on Lejeune near French Creek I got out of the mc back in August. You lucky bastard, our barracks was one of the oldest on Lejeune, it had black mold, roaches, it had been condemned. I used to see the super nice ones they built by Wallace Creek and always wished I could live there.
Back in 1970 I escorted a Marine to the brig. I was with 2/10 and I walked across Lejeune to where they were holding him. The poor guy had to carry his foot locker to the brig. He did get a sort of last meal at the commissary before dropping him off at the brig.
@@vicO1323 Oh yeah that was the old brig! The closed it in 2013 when they opened the current facility.
Damn that’s a big change from when I was there in 78’.
The U.S. Military and the Corps as part of it have changed a lot. Man! Those barracks would be BOQs when I was in. I slept in a lot of open squad bays. Then BBQs on and off. Lots of room, creature comforts personality, and individuality. That's not a bad thing to a point. I think it's a good thing more than anything. Marines have to grow up and be adults in their personal lives also.
This is so cool my brother has been living in camp lejeune for 2 years now I went there over Christmas break it was very beautiful
Semper Fi !!! 2nd Ceb Corpsman 1991-1995. I recognize that entry gate but the rest wow!! Alot of changes since 95.
love your channel g. Went you blow up just remember i was a day 1.
noahvro , Thank you I will never forget any of y’all. I would’ve never made it this far without y’all💯
Man, what a change from the early 80’s. I want to move back in. You guys are LIVING LARGE....
How to score good on the asvab // studying tips
hey man i know it’s a little late but there’s an app on the app store you can download to test you. just search ASVAB.
Matty the Killa thank you sm I was literally a month away from taking my test
Team Marines no problem my man. good luck !!
Matty the Killa I didn’t even think about that. Good looks bro
Bandit
course dude np
Damn! I remember I was helping put furniture in the new barracks that were just built off November Street, back in 1991. They were absolutely nothing like this. You kids are spoiled!
It’s good to see these great improvements being provided for our Marines. They are well deserved and should be the normal standard on every USMC base. I would hate to tell you how bad the living conditions were for enlisted Marines back when I served in 1968 thru 1974. Old Wooden squad bays, crowded with lines of metal bunk beds, flat soiled mattresses, no pillows, rusted & broken metal lockers, cold in the winter, hot in the summer, highlighted by gang toilets and showers that were WW2 vintage and difficult to keep clean…….how in the hell do you clean & polish a turd. Good old Corps.
Surprised the barracks have elevators and key cards. Back in the day, we only had ladder wells in the late 80’s.
Damn son, I was at Courthouse Bay 1966. These new barracks are like hotels compared to double racks in squadbays. Good for you guys!
In 1966 Lejuene and especially Jville were shitholes.
Yeah it's pretty nice
When I was in you might get one or two wall lockers. The beds were metal bunkbeds. You would have anywhere from two to four marines to a barracks room, and desks were not provided. I spent most of a year once in a quonset hut built in WWII. I also spent a chunk of 1997 in what was the newest barracks building at MCLB Barstow.
I had that same headboard in 1973... Seriously, that far better than anything the Army provides.
I was there in 79' for combat engineer school. We hit the E Club almost every night. On one night my buddy had guard duty on the grave yard shift but came out with us anyway and got pretty wasted. Needless to say, he passed out on duty that night. No office hours our court martial for this boy. Our Gunny woke his ass up early that morning and him fall out to the parking lot. There waiting for him was a nice warm 6 pack. He had to chug one then run laps around the parking lot until he threw up. Then come back and get another on and so on. You get the picture. I'm 60 now but I love to reminisce with you youngsters. Semper Fi!
So your saying you could of met Mark Fletcher
Hey man. I've got to meet a bunch of you guys in camp legeune from building gaming pcs. And all of you are such awesome kind people. Thank you for everything you guys do.
Right now I'm 13 year old and I can't way to be 17 to join the Marines with a GC
Tania Fernandez , That’s awesome, that motivated me💯
It’s a very bittersweet career. Emphasis on bitter. Enjoy your childhood while you can because I sure miss it.
i remember when i was 13 commenting that on Navas channel. Im now 17 as a poole. time flies
Keep active! I wish when I was in highschool I would’ve kept doing pull-ups etc. keep active and you’ll be fine!
That was quick 🤙
I was there from 1989-93… we had “new” barracks and they were nothing like that.. glad they keep upgrading.. we had the chow hall, Burger King,& subway.. that’s it 8:04
I never ever lived in barracks like that. I lived in Quonset huts. You marines of today live like kings compared to how we had to live.
Thank you for serving. My son is at Lejeune right now(9/26/22). I hope to visit him soon. Please take care and be safe. Thank you again
other than the roommate part this actually looks nicer than air force dorms, that common area is crazy nice
Alot nicer than what I had in the late 90s nice ass lounge big ass laundry room does any of the washers and dryers work beds are bigger I was 1/6 hp425 we had bunk beds 3 dudes to a room wall locketrs
Definitely not what I had when I was on lejuene we had two racks alittle ass fridge two wall lockers and a shared head with two rooms air never worked in summer and no heat in the winter LMAO ... Semper Fl brother
When I got to my first training station Millington, TN in 1978 we lived in open squad bays broken into 4 man cubes with curtains. Nobody lived on the first floor due to the raw sewerage flowing out of the broken pipes and out the back doors to the yard. Stayed that way for the 6 months I was there if you complained you got to walk Firewatch on the first floor.
LeJeune looked nothing like that back in the ‘90s 😅😂🤣
Back in 2009 it didnt still
BLT 1/2 Bravo Company was my last unit. Left in 94.
Yep...barracks were no where near that good.
Not even close..
Hi what State is this one in
North Carolina
My husband left Camp Latrine (LeJeune) in 1975, when it WASN'T a luxury hotel. He wonders if the brass has ever cleaned up the toxic water wells Marines had to drink from for 18+ yrs., since they spend so much money on new barracks. He survived throat cancer in 2019, probably from that water. Two of our daughters were born with birth defects, again, from Camp Latrine water. The last Marine he talked to from LeJeune, told him the water there was still toxic. He has stated that more Marines have died from the toxic water there, than were killed in all of America's wars. And that's not counting dead dependents. So you could say my ex-Marine NCO has a love/hate relationship with the Corps.
Man the barracks came along way on Lejeune. Man i was fleet in 08-12 in the 6th Marines barracks. Shoutout to all my Marjah Marines out there.
Yes Courthouse Bay!! Man the barracks are sweet looking !! Good for the young Marines! Thanks for the tour bro I was there in 94 for basic engineering school and in 97 for journeyman school. Good to see you are living large. We used to have the old prison beds lol. Love the shoe collection. We could just afford a pair of go fasters and boots.
We had prison beds too in El Toro, CA 😂
Seeing your video has brung me alot of memories!! They have made some upgrades since my days in the 80s !! Semper Fi !!
Semper Fi
I was at lejeune from 1977 to 1979....we had open squad bays over sixty guys sleeping in the same room...except for the NCO's which had there's blocked off for privacy....when i got back from a Med float in 79 French Creek was just opening up with these semi private rooms
Sounds like things have changed a lot since then
@@TrelltheGreat oh yeah from what i see....been wanting to to take a road trip back to Lejeune and see mainside camp johnson camp geiger and the air station...and i cant forget jacksonville....drank many a beer in that town..had some great times too....
Joining the Marines cause of you bro bro. Answered all my questions wit your videos .. prepared to become a better individual with the help of the Marine Corp
💪🏽
I am impressed! I lived in the old H-style barracks, open squad bay when I was at Lejeune. We had one wall locker and we all built a foot locker for ourselves. We had two racks per space like at Parris Island.
Golf Co. 2/2, 1991-1993. I noticed that some barracks were nicer than others depending on how new the living quarters were but we had nothing near that nice. I like those racks, though, back in the day the Navy would have had those while we had the metal frame racks with lumpy mattresses. Looks like things have gotten better.
Did you know a kid named Dacey from Flemington NJ?
@@dorothyburry42 No I did not. Sorry.
Did you know a corporal named Grimes?
@@dorothyburry42 That name seems familiar but he wasn’t in my platoon and I didn’t know him. Second battalion shared a mess hall and their barracks were in close proximity so that may be why it seems familiar.
I was in 1/8 comm company back in the 70"s . We had 1 open bay that the entire platoon slept in , NCO's had a partition separating them from the non NCO's . I would appreciate it if i could see their barracks now . And do they still use the quonset huts for their work area ?
My barracks was rectangular with concrete walls...floors...ceiling.
The head was shared by 2 sections. Each side had 4 shitters (no doors) 4 urinals, 4 sinks and 4 showers.
You shared a bunk and used your wall lockers to form a cubical.
It was a challenge to fart and see how many cubes you could affect. Good times.
do a video of "Day in the life as a infantry Marine" and video tape your morning routine and what you do threwout the day like eating at chow and going to the gym etc and add music. video tape all day until the night time.!!!!
I'll try and work on that
I joined in 1976 in my 17 years I never had or seen barracks like that before, we open squad bays and than we had 3 man rooms, even the common area was that great.
Wow old barracks were dumps. New guys take so easy and relax
🤷🏽♂️
Just got back from fort campbell and i can say that the marines barracks are wayy better. The ones in fort campbell had mold it stunk and the rooms looked like your closet.
M16music , Yeah we’re pretty fortunate over here that we got the newer barracks
When I was in the Marine Corps, it was 75 guys in wooden barracks, and you had fire watch duty. My take-home pay was $114 everything two weeks.
WOW the barracks look like hotels now. It has improved 100% I was there in 1999 and it look nothing like that and we had 3 to a room and one sink and a half fridge thats all you got LoL
Thanks for the tour,nice to see our Marines have a very nice place. I did my combat engineering schoo (MOS 1371 ) there back in 1974 .
They just had a huge lawsuit because the drinking water from like 1953 to 1987 was contaminated
WOW!!!!! I was in 1/10 for years and years. Lived in squadbays on O street Forever. Didn't finally get the BEQ's till after Desert Storm. That place is awesome. Congrats.
About time the upgraded the living conditions of the Barracks. When I lived in the barracks they were comparable to Jail Cells.
late 70's, early 80's, man, I hated LeJeune, N.C. Can you say Jacksonville? Has changed a lot though, good luck being stationed there.
I hated that place to and this was in 2010 I got out as a corpsman.
Bro honestly with what I’m going through in life, this is perfect , and to share with your best friend? Cmon now I’m not one to be picky, seems like the military is the thing I wanna do
Hoorah to all my brothers out there
Damn!!!! We just had mold, concrete, 4 Marines to a room, starched cammies smell, and disappointment in French Creek back in the day. By "back in the day" i mean 2002-2006.
In 8 1/2 years in the USMC only once did I have a barracks with a room (MCAS Cherry Point). The rest of the time it was squad bay barracks. I suppose if I'd stayed in for 53 years I might have had barracks like this. Semper Fi
The other services started phasing out open bays beginning in the 60's for the Air Force and 70's for the Army and Navy.
My son is there now. Looks similar to his room.
Lived in Jacksonville my whole life and never realized you were on LeJeune smh, stuck at Quantico for a bit now
I worked on WCRC. Was phase 1. Your parking lot was a sea of mud then. LOL 😆,did tile work all over that place. Your barracks were just getting started when I left. Armory n mechanics shop n Commodants offices were verry near complete. Thanks,always wondered how that place turned out!!!!
Nice barracks! I wonder how many of the people living there know what the inside of a Quonset Hut. Don’t ever complain about the living conditions there.
You should look into making a video about the things you're allowed to take to boot camp and be sent.
Shadow The Cat , Yeah I can do that
Things sure have changed sense the 60's, a privet shower? No squad bays" WOW
thumbnail looked like wallace creek but then i clicked on the video and saw that lobby, is this 8th comm? Looks like the hilton by comparison lol
Trell, Congrats. You guys have a great building. Big rooms, almost batter then Hotels. Lol. I did 10 years between Camp Lejeune and Camp Geiger. Our building were from WWII, time. Great job with video, keep up excellent work. Semper-Fi.
Yoo I live 5 minutes down the road from that i pass the barracks on the fwy all the time always wanted too know what it looked like thanks for postin ✌🏼👍🏼👍🏼
No problem
