David611950's channel

All 224 episodes from '57 until '63. Wonderful 6 seasons, Did not see them all, but many memories.

@MrLedzeppelinfan33 Same impact today as it was in 1968.

@loughran03 Semper Fi Marine. I Graduated Sep 68, San Dog. Times change with all the hazzing issue's, And perfect performance NCO's putting their Chevrons on the Line every second of current recruit training. This Video is a joke. I will never forget the 1st person talk as well as the not ey...

You have got to be fuc..... kidding me; take this with a grain of salt from a 1968 Marine Boot Camp Graduate, The beatings and mental abuse should return; Our branch's of service have become way too soft during our basic/recruit training. Once I was in combat, I understood without a doubt, why ...

Back in the NAM music, way before the graduate.

@rustribbonwizz , not even close to cumbia or better yet tejano. I bought this 45 when it first hit the charts, back in 65, for only 68 cents, plus tax. How our economy, dollar and MusIC has changed.

@nvdirtbiker Times have changed for the worse, shipmate; Now it is considered hazzing, and is all but a lost tradition. Even the Cerificate you receive, even if you get one, has clamshells over the meremaids boobs. When our female sailors got on-board all our ships, Morallity came into play, a...

@Dinosaur2508 Viral video's, Wikipedia has a long explaination on this issue.

@themythriller If you are a internet surfer, all your questions will be answered on wikipedia, Just search West end girls.

SEMPER FI, Marine. This brought back many memories of our beloved Corps. I graduated Sept 11, 1968, after starting training July 8th '68. PLT 2039 was my platoon. Spent 1-1/2 years in NAM, Arty battery up at Dong Ha, then 6mos with VMA AW 225, I did notice their Blue CE Viking head in one of ...

@nocalsteve The RRHB was hooked up to the Aircraft, this video is very grainy, It did slow the Aircraft a little, But was damaged after the SNA applied power. The T45 RRHB is NOT maintained by the Ship, it was transported by the maintenance packup and delivered to V2 upon arrival/onload. The in...

Flight Deck Safety is written in Blood. Compare what our sailors were wearing in this Video, as to what they are wearing on Todays Flight Decks. And to think, NO more bridle launchs. T2 was the last to launch with the throw away Bridle. So many memories, Time flies when you are having fun.

@chainsawhore Once you were in NAM you understood why the beatings/profanity was part of your every day life. This was not the ARMY, so Drill Sergeant was not even considered part of your vocabulary. Boot Camp has changed, As our society and morals has. A senior NCO Can risk all He or She has ...

@bishoplord really appreciated your reply, Since I have been away from the Corps since '72, what is MCT? After I graduated circa '68, we had 4 hours of base liberty, then next day went off to ITR (Infantry training regiment). 90% of us got orders to the NAM, before leaving we went to staging bat...

Vietnam era music, before CD's, 8tracs, cassettes, Good ole Vinyl, 45 or 33-1/3. Radio stations wore these number ones hits out. If you grew up in the 50's/60's, you know what i mean.

@BF6ct Let us get the phrase correctly, it its Peter Puffer!!!! the whole idea behind this phase of training, is an attempt to weed out any homosexual activity. Being a former marine, out 1st shower was 30 seconds long with 40 men asshole to elbow in a tiny showed space attempting to bath prope...

Get a grip, for one thing this is only a video game image. This is not an aircraft carrier, But a image of a "L" class carrier. Meaning either a LHA or LHD class ship. #2 was Saipan LHA, or #2 is Essex LHD Class carrier. MAINLY Amphibious operations, with a Well Deck, Flight deck for Helicopt...

@duanedonecker You forgot the Brown shirts, PC's backbone of the fleet aircraft.
