Navy OCS 12-98 Drill Practice Week 4

Great intensity and discipline by class 12-98. Oh sure, the same names of drill pigs get mentioned over and over but they had the discipline to freeze and not correct themself.

Can someone answer this.....are these guys Sailors, Marines or both mixed? I'm just confused as to why it says "Navy OCS" but they have Marine DI's. I thought DI's were just for boot camp? Anyone fill me in?

[crouchje]

Marine DI's have been training the Navy Officer Corps since 1947. First it was the NAVCAD's, then in 1956 AOCS was added, along with MARCAD's and AVROC's over the years. In 1994 the Navy merged the aviation element and the surface Navy into one school, Navy OCS. They kept the Marine DI's because no one can do it better than Marines when it comes to developing leaders and applying stress.

What a f*cking waste of time. I'm sorry, but what the hell does this have to do with becoming an officer?

[crouchje]

Marine Corps Drill Instructors use close order drill to develop DISCIPLINE, SELF DISCIPLINE, ESPRIT DE CORPS, TEAM WORK, ENTHUSIASM and SELF CONFIDENCE. They do this by creating an environment of pressure and punishment if you fail. If you want to earn your commission in an academic environment find another institution that does not use the Marine Corps Drill Instructor. I can only assume you are not a Marine, and if you are a Marine then obviously your Drill Instructors have failed you.

You sound just like the Senior Drill Instructor in Full Metal Jacket, First Sergeant.

Ive tried to replicate the commands and how you shout it many times cause im going to be in a play at the theater in the role of a Marine Drill Instructor.

Stand 25 paces from a tree or person and begin chewing them out in as loud a voice as possible. You will lose your voice, but then take the pain and continue yelling. It comes from the gut, not the throat. You need to lose your voice and have a reason to still communicate, thus you succeed at learning to speak from the diaphragm. It should feel like a thousand situps cramping your stomach. However, don't bother unless you have three or more weeks to recover your voice.

@crouchje That just seems so odd that they wouldn't use Navy DI's...or better yet Navy officers. Weird that a Marine NCO trains Sailors to become officers.....

This brought back memories, I was a Corpsman at the old Dispensary 82-85 just around the corner, and when I retired in 88 I was oftern on the Base for business and often watched this

I love this. If OCD can ever be caused, this should certainly do the trick.

1stSgt you motivate the heck out of me! Your videos are very instructive. I'm in the process of getting back in the SMCR (been out 4 years) and watching your videos are a great refresher on proper commands and drill movements. Do you have these on DVD?
