@Bernieo153 It doesnt matter what shape you are in, thats why youre going to basic training, that will whip you into shape real good. Doesnt matter if youre in the best shape ever too

[badkarmateam]

whats with all the stupid exclamation marks and WOWs and MUST SEEs. ..you can tell this is from california. dumb.

[mrperson123]

what obedient mindless pawns...

[princesskimbie]

what are they doing?

[iguardcalifornia]

@princesskimbie First day, calling the trainees by name and sending them to their assigned cattle truck.

The cattle trucks drives to the actual basic training site, the truck doors swing open and all hell breaks loose...

[ogpaintballr]

@iguardcalifornia When i went through this they filled us onto the cattle trucks form reception, and then all hell broke loose and they got us into a formation while yelling, screaming, and throwing things. After having us do some pushups, and holding our bags over our heads, they started calling names like this but it was splitting us into platoons. From the looks of it, they are already at their training battalion. But Ft. Benning may have done it differently from whereever you went

[TCHill19]

@iguardcalifornia u damn right all hell breaks loose...from the moment the drill instructor runs on that bus screaming at the top of his or her lungs saying GET THE FUCK OFF MY BUS! MOVE IT PRIVATES! YOU BETTER FUCKING GET YOUR ASSES OFF MY BUS! ive been there! its an absolute nightmare!

[mjjcng8958]

lol! my brother is going to ft benning in MAY!! if i get in i hope to go there as well

[thakid4life]

@mjjcng8958 I'm going to benning in may also.

[mjjcng8958]

@thakid4life yeah just took the practice asvab and math kicked my butt. my brothers recruiter gave me a sight to help me out. man i can't wait to be apart of the Army family

[princesskimbie]

@thakid4life I dont get it, why till may? I thought it was suppose to be when you already talked to your recruiter and stuff, they sent you like right away...

[jacobbis4lovers]

@thakid4life I'm going to Benning in February.

[domcplnc]

@jacobbis4lovers Benning should be considerably different. This looks like Jackson.

[jacobbis4lovers]

@domcplnc Hey, i'm out of basic. I went to Fort Benning. It wasn't that bad at all. It was actually really easy, except for the first day. The only thing that sucked was only getting three minutes to eat.

[samakaballer]

I leave for ft. benning in October, what kind of exercising do you do? Like, how far do you run/ how many pushups an all that? I stopped running about a month ago just out of boredom with running, but gonna start back on it tonight probably until I leave

[jacobbis4lovers]

@samakaballer You run a mile the first few times of basic and then they increase it to three miles. You have a five mile eagle run, too, but you only do it once. You do a sample run first to see which group you will run with. If you're in group A then they expect you to run your mile in under 7 minutes. I can't remember how many push-ups you do but you do so much that your arms and chest will be sore for a week. You do push-ups at least ten times a day, if not more.

[Tilon83]

This is so Gay!! Nothing like day zero when I went in in 2002. But it was only a one minute video but I wish we were able to stand still for one minute, even if it was at the position of attention.

[prathbaenre]

im assuming you've gone through this all in asking this. what do you do if theres more than one guy with the same last name?

[iguardcalifornia]

@prathbaenr They state the last name, first name. 

[prathbaenre]

@iguardcalifornia ah, indeed. thank you.
