  • Yeah Master at Arms! Get some! I tried doing this here at Corps school only to muster the next day and have my platoon LPO tell us to drop our sleeves because someone showed up with them down. Never again.

  • When I was in the airforce and saw airman with sleeves rolled up I thought they looked dumb cuz when in tech school they always do that mostly desk jockies do it I was CE electrican 07-11

  • im still rolling my sleeves idc im not a marine yet lol XD

  • @phatQQQ Air Force and Army have a different way

  • Comment removed

  • now the other side

  • Comment removed

  • so only Navy and Marines can roll their sleeves not the Air Force and the Army. Is this some kind of uniform regulation and whats the purpose?

  • i'm not even in the Marine Corps and i felt sick to my stomach when i found out rolled sleeves were out...

  • @leftwhit19 and look you smart one this video mustve been uploaded by a navy member not a marine just because the uniform patch said us navy

  • @Namikaze1230 i can read, thank you for the heads up. but after reading the policy that the Commandant released, i left a comment expressing my mild objection to the new restriction, on a video that demonstrates how to roll sleeves, which is no longer within policy boundaries.

  • i reead an ABC news article saying that you will only be able to roll up sleeves at the discretion of your local commanding officer.

  • Haven't seen it done that way but it's shit hot.

  • NO MORE SLEEVE ROLLING FOR MARINES MAN. Shit Sucks.

  • @bountyonmyhead i know. my SMI told us that yesterday in my mcjrotc class

  • The new nwu uniform for the navy has the outside of the sleeve roll showing the digital blue patern.....

  • origami?

    

  • Sucks that I wont be able to wear my sleeves rolled up when I leave for basic in march... Such a let down...

  • cant roll sleeves anymore HAHAHAHAHAHA u mad marines?

  • RIP Rolled up Sleeves :(

  • well can't do that anymore...

  • nice curtains haha

  • Did someone just ask if they had an option to wear it up or down? Bloody hell mate USMC and USN wear sleeves inside out that's why in previous wars locals called them White sleeve to tell the were USMC

    It's the ARMY that wears the sleeves with facing out side in

  • 1 question. Do you have the option to wear them up or down? If so, I would wear them up. looks way more neat an professional to me.

  • @TBKSLyCooPeR The answer is no.

  • @metalmad101 Um. Soooo...... Up.... orrrrrr down? lol

  • @TBKSLyCooPeR It depends on what your command wants you to wear. Sometimes they want you to have your sleeves rolled, sometimes they don't. You don't get to choose what you want to wear. lol

  • @metalmad101 Ok, that's what I was looking for =) thanks alot. Hope my command wants me to roll them up..... Dear I hope its up.

  • @metalmad101 Ok, that's what I was looking for =) thanks alot. Hope my command wants me to roll them up..... Dear I hope its up.

  • @TBKSLyCooPeR It usually depends on the season. For example, during the summer, you're usually going to have your sleeves rolled. And in the winter, down. But sometimes, depending on the situation, your command will make you do something different.

  • Hollywood Marines & Sailors

  • Awesome. I'm an MA and I used to wear that uniform. I wear desert cammies now, but I'll be wearig that unifomr again soon. Your sleeves look sharp as fuck shipmate.

  • I feel like such a fu@$ing moron! This is genius and i been doing it the quick way and it comes out shitty! Thanks Shipmate!

  • great sleeves sir. im a young marine and this video help alot.

  • Hoo Yah SEABEE'S

  • Lol seaman

  • In the AF, we roll the cuff of our sleeves back over the thick part to make the uniform a uniform color instead of the ends of the sleeves being much lighter than the rest of the uniform.

    Just sayin. It looks better.

  • @secretsofdiffusion I am in the Navy, I wear the uniform in this video, and I completely agree with you.

  • #LIKEABOSS

  • i have the same iron ;) been looking everywhere and this helped alot with my abu

  • I roll up my ABUs sleeves During AFJROTC inspection, THNX

  • Thank you for the assist, shipmate!

  • I like ironing. Its fun.

  • That. Is genius

  • It's a different way than the NWU's

  • @chrissig Im in CAP too!! well was lol

  • I'm not in any branch myself, but I typically wear older BDUs as work clothes while truck driving.

    After watching this, I could at least do my thing in the 100 degree heat while making sure my clothes don't look like complete crap at the same time.

    Thanks for the tutorial and of course your service.

  • Im in Civil Air Patrol, and I was wondering, why do different branches roll the sleeves of their bdu's differentley? In CAP I'm pretty sure everyone rolls it so the colored part is on the outside which is much harder than just rolling up your sleeve. Personally, I think it looks better this way so I don't mind the effort to get it right. But yeah, just curious.

  • @chrissjg

    It's because the Navy and USMC roll their sleeves the correct way. Army and Air Force just slop their sleeves up any way they feel like,

  • @elchorizo Who says that is the ''correct way''? Lmao.

  • love the vid. I am USN. Thanks for serving!

  • @xavier9706 No warrant officer goes around saying bro. Most of them are too old to have senses of humor =D

  • Just wanted to say, man...I'm US Navy, here working on a Marine base in Yuma, AZ and even though I roll my sleeves a bit different than you, I watch your video every Monday morning when I'm rolling mine....I love the non-talking; you just go and get the job done...very relaxing and theraputic...like a game of golf, or turning a record over to side "B." Thanks for the weekly motivation....!

  • Thanks. I bought a BDU from a surplus storenear me, but I live in texas so it's damn hot. It has been over 100 degrees every day for the past 6 weeks.

  • Thank you for serving our country sir

  • @SixthShotNation its not all about fighting in the war he could be a contruction worker or doctor in military you can be anything

    from

    Lt.Walker

  • *heavy breathing*

  • Great technique. The water shaking in the iron made me laugh for some reason.

  • Leave it to an MP to starch and iron his sleeves

  • great job ... thanks for the help!

  • Give it your wife or your girlfriend. That's their job!!

  • My DI gave me 10 seconds to fold my sleeves and everytime 10 seconds had passed he unfolded them and made me start over...

  • Im joining the Marines in 9 months,but I'll have to go through DEP for a year before boot camp. during that year am I able to wear BDUs?

  • @TheKommykiller No, you will not wear any uniforms in DEP other than a poolee shirt :/

  • @TheKommykiller no you have to earn the right to wear it. in the marines everyhting is earned. the poolee shirt is the last thing you will ever be given

  • @TJkiwiOWEG ok thanks

  • Mosh,

    To a point, it does mean something. For a civilian, comments regarding the military should be directed to the level of where they have direct impact via elections. (ie, The Commander in Chief and his Cabinet and/or Congressional members).

    For those of us wearing the uniform (or aspiring); youtube is not the forum to denigrate your brothers and sister in arms.

    For those in the H.S. programs, I highly recommend that you leave your political views off of a public forum...

  • How much did you starch that sleeve? Haha

  • shit hot

  • will they get pissed if I try to do this at boot?

  • @LavenousKirby

    I assume you mean usmc boot. They don't watch you roll your sleeves, that will be on you during your square-away time at night. In recieving they will tell you to roll your sleeves, and you will see everyone else's sleeves look like ass. Then on black friday, your drill instructors will probably teach you the way. If you like this way better, then do it. Just remember one thing: They want to know what time is, not how the watch works. That'll get you a long way in your training

  • the crease is a pain to get in the dress uniform

  • this is always hard to get in the dress uniform can you give some tip plz

  • take a page from his book. DIDNT SAY A WORD AND GOT 71THOU + VIEWS. OORAH!!

  • those sleeves gave me a hard on!

  • the dislike bar is like lady gagas penis, small and not supposed to be there

  • THANK YOU!

  • Now that you've just done that... COMBAT DRESS... GO!!

  • In Canada it is against regs to iron the cadpat operational uniforms because it screws the IR coating on the uniform. It makes it much easier to roll the arms too because there is no need of an iron.

  • shit this works 10x better than any other way i was trying thanks

  • I have the same iron.

  • Mine look all gay lol

  • I love how a simple instrucional video turned into a bitching fest.. does it relly matter why people join the service? the point is that these men and women are keeping your ass safe so you can paint your precious pictures. stop criticizing troops just because you want everybody to believe what you want to belive.

    Great sleeves man! they gotta be the most perfect sleeves i've ever seen!

  • @xXMoshxTilxDeathXx thank you! finally someone realizes that. my dad was in the air force for 4 years and i want to join the navy, and all he keeps saying is how low of pay that they get. i said to him, they dont care what they get paid.

  • I wish the Army still did this.. Whoever decided no sleeve rollin on the ACU is a dick

  • dam man my sleves sux compared to that lol everytime i fold them i mess them up at the end <.<

  • Comment removed

  • no wonder were still in afghanistan... it takes these guys an hour and a half to unfold their clothes in the morning...

  • @obSCENEoneTW0 How about you go and show them how its done?

  • @userunavailable3095 why would i want to do that?

  • @obSCENEoneTW0 Because you might want to prove that you were something more than all mouth.

  • @userunavailable3095 there are better ways to prove your worth other than killing brown people with advanced weapons... you could write a poem or paint a picture, or learn a skill. but i guess to people who like being told what to think it is important to fold their sleeves in a perfect crease.

  • @obSCENEoneTW0 I guess that means you believe in a perfect world where everything is all sunshine and lollipops, and there are no mean or evil people of any color who would ever hurt anyone? Must be nice. I guess you don't think that brown people ever need to be protected from other brown people? Or white people? Or yellow people? Or what the heck does the color have to do with it people? Why does race enter into this at all? Do you think there are no brown soldiers?

  • @userunavailable3095 so the reason you joined the military was to protect some brown people?

  • @obSCENEoneTW0 Thanks for the compliment, but no, I'm not in the military. Actually, I write poetry, paint pictures and have many skills. But I've gained enough wisdom to get my mind out of the box yours is in. Utopias can't exist, and people who try to create them always end badly, because they are too naive to understand human sin and evil. There will always be evil. That includes some among soldiers. But most of them are pretty altruistic people. Open your ears and mind.

  • @userunavailable3095 oh okay so you are just a patriotic american, as long as evil corrupt people are in control than the world will be in perpetual warfare. i know a lot of people in the army, my brother is in the army, and altruism is low on the list of why they joined the army. i think after $, the second reason on the list would be blowing shit up, right after that would be killing shit. so i think you are the one thinking in the box my friend... bombs for peace? doesnt make much sense.

  • @obSCENEoneTW0 Umm, no, I am a former far to the left wing liberal, who learned to actually think and research for myself, instead of thinking only government approved thoughts indoctrinated in public school. Sure, bombs for peace sounds silly, if you are silly enough to think that the whole world is peaceful and altruistic except for the US.

  • @obSCENEoneTW0 you're an idiot

  • What branch wears BDU ?

  • @RaptorAirsoft the army technically its all BDU but marines call it cammies and army calls BDU

  • @RaptorAirsoft no body wears bdu's anymore marines have MARPAT (Marine Pattern) army has ACU (Army Combat Uniform) and Airforce has that weird tiger stripe look

  • Love this! No words are needed...just actions. Do it!

  • the easiest way to roll sleeves is to have a boot do it

  • @jp89il That's only when you don't have the hot ironing tool up there. With the boots, clean the sole, then stomp on the shirt.

  • @jp89il no no no nonnonononono I suck at rolling sleeves. so unless you want your sleeves to look like ass. haha

  • @NAFeva lol!

  • I just rolled up the sleeves lol but I'll try this and see if it works

  • thank god the days of starched inspection cammies are over

  • Comment removed

  • Okay, yeah well the sleeve looks good, but I bet it fits looser than a Navy chick... How the hell are you suppose to make the sleeve fit tight...?

  • @BLKJTakahashi common man my parents were in Navy. . . damn! Have some respect.

  • @BLKJTakahashi you work out and make your arms bigger lmao

  • @DustinTheGoth fuck u. grow some balls and join the marines

  • @TKKskynyrd hey. dont say any branch is better because they are all equal. damnit it people like you make me sick. Im going into the national guard in transportation. you wanna laugh at me? every branch works in unison. thats why we havent got our asses nuked. or having the government overrun by gangs or other countries

  • @daft4life every guy that says that shit about them all being equal is always someone that is NOT going into the marines....hmmm wonder why that is? lol

  • @pmarine81 yeah im not going into the marines. It has never once crossed my mind that i want to be a marine. Always wanted to be part of a bigger, better payed/insured branch that i know i WILL succeed in and maybe not die(although that is always a factor.) I have to admit marines are badass... BUT, you cant just send out marines to do the job. you need evey branch. But to have a little fun, at least we know that the branches we are going in arnt sausage fests hahaha

  • @daft4life actually all branches are paid and insured the same we all have the same health care i dont know where you got your info but thats wrong and you can send marines to do any job

  • Comment removed

  • @daft4life lol you dont join the Marines... you become one.

  • @koolguy00145

    Yeah, and it fucking hurts, and shit.

  • all branches are not equal. the air force gets a shit load of money and the best gear even though they don't do shit. the army guys shoot each other, the navy runs around in blue camies (WTF???). i usually forget that the nat. guard is even a branch and the coast guard...? really? the marines are the best. bottom line. we make the most out of the least. in the end, we are all on the same team being a service member gives you the right to talk shit!

  • @boobatooba1 its true. being on the same team entitles you to talk shit.

    Having said that, The Marines are here so the Navy has dance parters :)

  • Do you have to iron it after every step? Or can you just fold it without ironing it?

  • @crankingsteve1 recommended that you do iron after every step. It ain't required, but it is that much sharper looking. Even if you roll them with the cuff showing, like me.

  • damn, like putting your asses on the front line wasn't enough. How long does it take you guys and girls to get ready? If your willing to risk your life for this country the least the government could do was let you roll your sleeves. Marine's & Navy do look good in uniform though :)

  • I am not in the military yet so i dont actually know from any experience but i have heard ironing your uniform ends up damaging the uniform. is it true?

  • look at how sloppy that shit looks.

    i'm pretty sure i prefer the Army's way of doing shit.

  • This is a much faster and easier way to cuff!!

    Luv It!! :)

  • now do it with the sirth on.lol

  • I got to wear my sleeves rolled up one time. It was during KP in OSUT. (Army Tanker)

  • @danvega18 Its more of a Marine thing

  • @RebelliousPatriot

    It was an Army thing as well, but the AC.Us do not permit the sleeves to be rolled

  • @ArmyofUglyAnon is it because they have 300 pockets ur not aloud to use? well they have the spiffy little pen holders and thats about all you can get away with using.

  • @RebelliousPatriot yeah but USMC rolls their sleeves because they dont blend in with shit so they might as well do do green lookin shit

  • @justin2800 what?

  • now do the other side

  • the new navy digi camo's have the last 3" of the cuff rolled back over so the back side of the fabric doesn't show.

  • hopefully he shoots that good

  • This method works for small Marines but I have 18 inch arms it doesn't work for me. I have a 32 inch waste and weigh 180lbs. I should wear large utilities but have to buy XL . oohrah!!!

  • Does this style of folding work for the digital marine uniform?

  • yeah it does you just need to use alot of steam so you can see the crease mark

  • wow thats not easy

  • This style of folding won't work on Air Force ABUs.

  • MAA badge, nice.

  • Wow, does this work with the new digi utilities? My husband, love him, tries so hard but ends up, usually with Gunny Rolls. So I thought I might learn to roll them for him.

  • Nicely done.

  • I think he's Marines.

  • @videomaster283 hes navy it says it on his uniform

  • NJROTC ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I hate those shitty Irons. We have them on the ship too!

  • r u a corpman

  • @bluto1281 hes a mp thats why he has a badge on his uniform

  • That's a sweet MP/SP badge patch

  • i knew i was folding my bdu s right!

  • first of all thats not even Marine corp issued uniform thats army greens if im correct second that is the worst way i have seen yet

  • @jgalli09 hes in the navy

  • Ah yes, why I didn't join the military

  • If one of my Marines ever used this meathod, I would give them an UNSAT on an inspection for improper care and cleaning and also those sleeves are not rolled properly as they can not be unrolled easily. You also took 10 times longer to do it this way than the proper way.

  • @Robbob9933 UNSAT, for sure.

  • @Robbob9933

    If your not a POG ill shoot myself up with morphine, again.

  • @Kodiakian1 What a fucking ignorant statement. Where would all the grunts be without the non-grunts, that would be DEAD. All Marines wear the same green and have the same uniform regulations you fool. For rolling up the sleeves, the Navy follows the Marines reg. I EAS'd before you were a twinkle in your daddy's eye. BTW 8 years as 0352 so go shoot up and continue doing so until you die. I pray that you have not reproduced as the gene pool does not need your level of ignorance.

  • go navy

  • sailors dont roll their sleeves like that

    

  • dang i've been trying this for a bit now and can't seem to get it.

  • la olum manyak misiniz ne siniz ya... dür gutsin ya!!!

    iki saat oraya sok buraya cevir... olmaz bisey arkadas

  • Fuck no Marines dont wear there sleeves like that

  • o shit someones an MAA

  • (the pleat effect in knees allows flexibility!!! look at your & youll the the skin is folded!!! bend it & youll see they disappear while the skin stretches & knee's & elbows have harder skin!) the best uniform is like the body!!! since our skin does not restrict us▐▐▐

  • i let the cuffs decide the wideness of my sleeve rolls!!! anyways if the armpits of a uniform allow aspiration there is little need for rolling anyways since in summer its best to cover the arms cause from sunlight!!! but rolled sleeves are cool & they free the elbows!!! to bad there are no high boots to allow the same freedom for the knees▐▐▐

  • thank you. It's realy helpful :)

  • damn, do all branches use that same iron? i've been using that same type since boot.

  • the worst part is the damn water globbling noise!!! atleast my iron does it relaxed! but that iron is sooo Ughhbffffff▐▐▐
