[FoxtrotABW]

1st phase arms! clack clack clack clack 

[JTMondal]

wht company and plt is this and when is it frm?

[Runaholism]

"Give us your son and we'll give you back a Marine" is what I say to all the mothers out there.

[atreyulvr666]

Over up and cut.

[masonbcaldwell4]

Sux to be them, they still have their "Go-Fasters'" on. Thats gotta be up somewhere around 1st, I don't remember any water (except for a glorified ditch) back by Third... then again, that was 10 years ago for me.

[deltapunk21]

You Understand. You Understand. You Understand. Yes the fuck I do now stop marching us in stupid drill all day so you can get a trophy you pricks-Universal sentiment Recruits at PI.

[6083748]

im a bagin!

[lalee423]

I remember those days!!!

[yourawsomeness]

no its not the parade deck

[psyclopsus]

The parking lot beside the parade deck is called the grinder (or at least it used to be called that.) I don't think this video was shot on the grinder either because I don't remember any trees anywhere near the middle like what's shown in this clip.  It's been 10+ years though, so I may be wrong.

[PTurchan1]

That is indeed the parking lot besides the parade deck. The trees are there.

[FFfan8]

Any one else think they werent sounding off for shit?

[Abdul1223]

how hard is it to learn all the drill and marching? dont think that will be my strong suit when i go....

[icingdeath69]

its not that difficult. and after a while once u build muscle memory its quite easy. it was my favorite part of boot camp

[orangutanbaybe]

Dude, anyone can drill, dont stress 'bout it, I'm telling you now, basic drill will be the easiest thing you'll do. You just get used to it, like icingdeath said, its muscle memory, you'll be able to do it with out thinking.

[rockman5280]

JEWSPOWER, somehow i doubt you would have the balls to say that to any of their faces, or mine. cuz i have seen more spine in a jelly fish, and more guts in a ten year old you pussy boy

[steagle33]

So I can't figure out where they are.... is it in the parking lot next to the parade deck? At the very back close to 1st BN?

[mgkusmc]

I think that is, cause I think there is a third building like the ones in the background we just cant see those are the buildings where the Band at PI practices I remember hearing them warm up all the time on our way back from PT

[a414669]

Yeah it's the Parking Lot of the Parade Deck

[cwood4ever]

Does anyone remember not taking a shit the first week of boot camp. And then when you finally drop a load its gigantic?

[thefuzzter]

Totally.

And then the one's following the crucible and the warriors breakfast were amazing as well.

[doktor29]

hhaha

goodti

[mgkusmc]

Hahaha no that swamp water gave me a bad case of the mudbutt the first week, I remember having a DI yell at me to get my ass out of there and he started counting me down he finally left when I yelled "This recruit can't sir!" as my ass exploded audible enough for him to hear.

[tomtheft]

Damn that is some funny. LAWL

[youngskuda08]

[USMC8690]

[HsPxToxic]

[CRZombie88]

[Carebear120930]

aw. my boyfriend left for marine boot camp in parris island last week (Sunday). I miss him like crazy! I cant wait till he gets back!!

[Verbatimofo]

your boyfriend is going to change a lot.

[smntha08]

if they go into boot camp as a complete jerk

are they going tobecome a good person after boot camp?

[Carebear120930]

yeah. i know. its okay though. i'll love him no matter what. :-)

[gpboy85]

yeah. i know. its okay though. i'll love him no matter what. :-)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Carebear120930]

how is that funny?

[socmonke84]

i go to parris island September 2nd

[aznpinoy13]

my friend just left for bootcamp yesterday...

[jinglemybells262]

sweet. i dont know where they gonna send me yet. Parris island is in SC right?

[TheLatigoKid]

Boot camp was such a waste of time. A lot of stupid screaming and drill. The training was only 12 weeks, not 32 weeks like the British Royal Marines. This crap hasn't changed since the 1950's. You fire one rifle for a week. Big deal. They need to step it all up; this is the 21st century. HQMC = Can You Hear Me, Now?

[Marine101OORAH]

Well it seems the Marines are the fighting elite of this world still huh...

[Lesa777]

o dont worry about that they will teach u hah

[CaniacTiLLIDie]

God this is what Im afraid of when I join, Im not worried about the PT but the drilling and marching part have me scared as shit, Iv never down either in my life.

[slappy1234567]

Drilling is taken VERY seriously. When I went through MCRD SD (3bn, k company, plt3057), I remember that the most horrific part was the "mini grinder." We would push all of the beds in the barracks to one side and drill, drill, drill for hours, practicing rifle movements. Screaming, pushing, slapping (to "correct a movement") for hours at a time. Usually we did this on Saturdays, Sundays and rainy days. Good luck at boot camp!!!!

[CaniacTiLLIDie]

Thanks for the info

[primeralives]

When do you leave for BootCamp friend?

[CaniacTiLLIDie]

Sept. 15

[primeralives]

I was a Drill Instructor at 2nd RTR at Parris Island in the mid 80's and I can tell you this. All you have to do is pay very close attention. Have a highly motivated attitude,give 110% and don't be afraid to take charge and show leadership and you will do fine. Close order drill has it's purpose and what it does is bond you all together to work as one fine tuned machine.

[CaniacTiLLIDie]

Thanks for the motivation sir, My Dad is a Marine so I know I have it in me and Im just going in with the attitude of not quiting, luckly my cousin who is going in for Recon and will be there with me so that will help.

[primeralives]

Well I wish you the best, Recon will come later when you're cousin is in the FMF. I had my Recon training in Okinawa in 79' . You had to be screened to get into a recon unit. I can't stress enough the need to master your workouts to the point of pain. In both long distance running and short wind sprints and most of alllots of weight training. Do not go in there fat as it will hinder you. Lay off any smoking or drinking heavy.

[primeralives]

I know I sound like a broken record but as a former DI,I cannot stress enough the type of workouts now that will push your endurance to the limits. I had so many privates that washed out cause they went in and spazzed out during the first weeks of 1st phase. They'd fall out of runs and couldn't do 3 complete pull=ups. They weren't prepared. When did your Dad serve? I was an 0311 my whole tour except for my Drill Field tour. Grunt forever baby! I loved being in the field.

[CaniacTiLLIDie]

He served during Nam, Im on the way to ATL right now to train and meet my new recruters. I'll be back wednesday but thanks again for all the advice, I'll prolly get back at you when I get back if thats alright. Semper Fi

[hunterbob39]

i was in plt 2047 in 88 did you work this plt

[primeralives]

I was already out in 88. My tour their was 84 to 86 in 2nd RTR.

[smntha08]

if they go into boot camp as a complete jerk

are they going tobecome a good person after boot camp?

[KIBRIA44]

no not come out a good person the personality stays the same there just more discipline

[XLE31]

Friend of mine came out of boot and was almost a completely different person...

[mgkusmc]

Actually what I've noticed having gone through Boot Camp those who were jerks before, remain jerks they just have more confidence.

[teufelhunden5811]

@mgkusmc I agree with you on that Marine,I noticed the same thing....

I graduated from P.I. Feb.27 1985 3RD BTN.I CO. PLT.3015..

[primeralives]

Let me give you a tip. Ask your recruiter for a Marines Guidebook and the next few months study repetitiously like a hard charger and also push yourself to excell physically especially in upper body workouts and running and you'll be a squad leader for sure and hopefully graduate with rank and dress blues. Nows the time to give it your all.

[CaniacTiLLIDie]

Your exactly right Primeralives, Im actually going into bootcamp as a PFC and hopefully I'll be the guy helping out and not needing help. Im not quite there yet physically, but I will be in about another month, Im about as mentally ready as I can be. Thanks for the motivation though.

[Fuzionrider]

drill and marching isn't too hard. I'm in the Young Marines and it's fun!

[CoalTrain8321]

2nd 2040 Hotel 05/04 MCRDPI

[Clemmatt]

Ah the joy of first phase drill.

Oohrah 2nd BN! I graduated Hotel Co Plt 2116 2nd BN MCRDPI.

[slovakiandude]

What was drill like in first phase for you?

[VOLCOMskategirl]

what do you think is a better atmosphere and envronment parris island or san diego,

[slovakiandude]

both are cool places to be at where they train the few and the proud.

[sjdevil07]

i just graduated on firday from golf co. plt 2020

[marinemomkerry]

oohrah! congratulations all of you

my son, Golf Co., 2nd RTBN graduates this friday april 4, present for his sisters 21st birthday

[wirklichdoof]

hey cool! i'm from 4th rtbn papa company! i graduated yesterday too! congrats! semper fi

[bittyrock]

To the Right in the 1st Battalion PT Field. During Drill if you were acting like a Knucklehead or Recruits who were straight Booger our Senior would order one of our Green Belts to take Recruits to the Running Track which is all Sand to get Smoke Checked. You can't the PT Field though but I miss those Days in 1999 at Parris Island. For the Booger below this is Not San Diego its Parris Island. MCRD San Dog is Good to Go though I was out there for a month doing some Training.

[masonbcaldwell4]

hell yeah, tho if you went to the Track, you must've been 1st or 2nd BTN, cause back in the #rd Herd, all we had were the Pits... when were you there? I graduated 3rd BTN Kilo Plt 3096 November 19th 1999

[bittyrock]

I got to the Island on the 27th of October 1999. I was 1st RTB Alpha Company. You graduated a few weeks after I got to the Island. When I got there the Sand Fleas were still out like Crazy and then it got Cold in December. I did Team Week at 3rd BN and I'll admit over at 1st and 2nd we're in the Open. Over at 3rd you're surrounded by those Trees and all day I saw Recruits getting Pain put in their Body. Alpha Co has a Good Rep on the Island but 3rd BN has always had good Reputation for years

[bmiusmc]

3rd Bn, Lima Company, Plt 3077, graduated September 1999. Semper Fi Marines!

[Jock191]

Im not to sure what about this video makes you think its San Diego but you are WAY wrong Dayo. We had NOTHING that looked like this at MCRD San Diego. If you are on the Parade Deck at MCRDSD there would be buildings all around you. You have the Squad bays facing one way and offices on the other side.

[EandS14]

My brother was in 2nd batallion plt.2005 hand picked by a retiring drill instructor

[dayo43867]

too bad this isnt parris island, its san diego!

[adoty1202]

actually, it is Parris Island, I do live here!

[mcalebmoss]

@dayo43867 this looks nothing like San Diego

[geoffereybennett1331]

@dayo43867 yeah that is parris island i remember marching right there

[steelfan77]

@dayo43867 Thats PI smart one

[eminemdabest02]

@dayo43867 go assfuck yourself, this is defenitly Parris Island man

[jimdonal]

this should be a lesson to the code pinkies. this is called disipline. Somethig the pinkies have never had and should have.
