Actually not counting receiving, guard duty, and your 5 days in the field and KP week (which they no longer do) you do get 8 hrs almost every other night...they want you to get 3 squares a day and 8 hrs sleep so they have a base to build on...Parris Island, 3rd Battalion, summer of '75.

Agreed.I went through in the summer of 1986 and outside guard duty (Fire watch) field week or getting up on your own to study,work on uniform inspection prep,or simply to take a dump or shower with a little privacy,you did get 8 hours of sleep. Boot Camp isn't Ranger School where you are pushed to the limits of physical endurance.It's more of a exercise in developing mental toughness.

Do women train side by side with male recruits in things like PT, close order drill, and the Crucible? (We had no Crucible in my day.) What about at the rifle range? My advice to any who plan to join is that they slim down and be able to run 3 miles nonstop in Combat Boots (bought at an Army/Navy surplus store), do 35 push-ups, 10 pull-ups, 50 sit-ups, and 15 deep knee bends.

I didn't watch the video, just wanted to pass along my Receiving experiences back in '75 at Parris Island. My Recruiter's only advice was "when you get to Parris Island the shit is going to hit the fan, just keep you mouth shut and do what you ae told as fast as you humanly can"....I thought Hmm, that sounds okay. So it's zero dark thirty and our Greyhound bus (mostly civilians maybe 15 "Marines") stops in the middle of F'n no where and the bus driver announces Okay this is Parris Island all Marines deboard...we stumble out half asleep. Back then there was just a small MP shack on the mainland...a couple of the recruits tried to ask the MP's what we're supposed to do and they ignored us, finally an MP said shut the fuck up and just stand there. About 20 minutes later a van arrives with an old black civilian driving it...he was cool and told us boys if you have any candy or gum or cigarettes better use them now and then leave any leftovers in the van. He dropped us at the yellow foot prints with DI's screaming. I'm standing on the footprints with all hell breaking loose all around me, for what appears people that just won't keep their mouths shut and I'm thinking hey my Recruiter was right, as long as I keep my mouth shut it'll be okay....Just as I was finishing that sentence in my mind I felt my head jerk back roughly from a DI pulling my neck length hair...he leans into my ear and in the meanest whisper I'd ever heard in my life said/growled "Get your fucking hands out of your goddamn pockets long hair"...I knew right then these guys were deadly serious and I was in big trouble. In the hell hole known as Receiving they started by running us up and down the stairs from one side of the barracks to the other, when recruits started falling they'd take us down stairs and put us on our knees with our hands behind our backs lined up beside long tables, bent over so our noses would just touch the table...it was an ingenious torture device that soon had your lower back and neck screaming in pain...a DI walked around the tables with a riding crop in his hand...if anyone either laid their head down or picked it up to relive the pain you'd hear a loud WHACK/Aaahhh as the DI would hit the recruit. After that got too boring they'd stand us up at attention along the walls and just watch us/yell at us for perceived short comings...once in a while you'd hear a THUMP as a recruit hit the floor, the DI's would quickly snap what I took to be a smelling salt capsule under his nose and roughly stand him back up with a not so gentle reminder not to lock your knees...it was during one of these sessions that a recruit just a few feet to my right stepped out of the line and announced "My name is so and so and my father is congressman so and so and I have changed my mind I no longer want to continue and would like to speak to the commanding officer"...as soon as the kid opened his pie hole two DI's were front and center in his grill but let him finish his speech...I was pretty stunned by the whole thing and as I said he was standing just to my right so I had a front row seat and was ...I was wondering what would happen and didn't have to wait long to find out...as soon as the recruit stopped his speech the two D's looked at each other and in unison broke out into evil laughs, which lasted about 2 heart beats, then while one grabbed the kid by the shoulders the other one punched him HARD in the stomach and they both slammed the kid back against the wall and one said "Shut the fuck up, you aren't going anywhere". The kid never said another peep. I never saw him again with the whirlwind of Receiving and he must have gone to a different platoon, but my money would be on him being an early drop. I have a couple more Receiving stories but will tell just this one, it's the haircut story. Not sure how or when this changed but we didn't get our first haircut in the barbershop like is always depicted in the youtube videos and the movies...there was a small abandoned looking concrete room not far from the receiving barracks (I was pretty disoriented and went to 3rd battalion so am not real clear where it was, but I think it was to the right of the chow hall when looking from the receiving barracks (which were still the wooden WWII barracks)...anyway it was like a bare concrete room about 10 x 10, no windows, with a bare light bulb dangling from the ceiling, we were roughly "marched" 2x2 into the room and there was a large steel garbage can sitting under the dangling light bulb with two barbers standing n either side of sad can...the DI"s were screaming...Bend your head over the fucking trash can. IF you have any moles you better put a fuckin finger in it or they'll get shaved off....just a bit more indignation...again I have no idea why our hair cut was such a brutal experience, but it seemed to fit in with how boot was back in the day...

what they don't tell you about in this video would be that they are many DI's down there that abuse the shit out of their power, take away meals, head calls, etc getting 2 second showers, going on power trips.. My senior DI was still using day one training methodologies while we were in phase 3. lots and lots of tearing down and very very very little of building up. Oh, and be prepared for you platoon mates to turn into brown nosing little backstabbers. they'll rat you out for the tiniest things to try to get in good with the DIs. don't get me wrong, you could have an easy time in bootcamp depending on who you get as DI's.. but you re just as likely to get the biggest fucking douchebags for DIs who don't give a fuck about training you, but rather enjoy playing god.

The Company Commander questioned different recruits on a few occasions but for reasons I do not know. nothing came of it either, as far as I know, nobody outside the platoon knew about missing meals, withheld headcalls, and 2 second showers. If any of the higher ups did, no actions were taken to improve anything. Our Senior DI was with us until the end, his antics always hounding us. And no, I'm not exaggerating. that shit was just the tip of the iceberg.

Saeraen I don't know, it's hard to talk about it, just because the difference between your "Army" and mine is big. Our DI's were also hard, I can imagine they were harder at my friend (he was in a special forces regiment in the infantry). Our Company Commander was an "iceman", but he was well-balanced, if you had any problems, he took you out and talked to you, face to face, as long you don't report useless stuff "Captain, our platoonleader let us do too many push-ups wah wah". What about higher commanders? I remember an elder Warrant Officer, he was badass and very strict, but he also had a "human side". I guess your DI's had more power than they should have (IMO). I'm not overexxagerating either, we weren't pussies neither. But our Commander told us, that we can report anyone that doesn't let allow us to eat our meal. "No food, no battle."

The quickest way to end, "abuse of power" is a letter to your folks. The Series and Company Commander will have to do something of a Congressman gets a call from a worried mother and calls to the Recruit Depot wanting some answers. A lot of times the issue of 'ABUSE" is determined by the maturity level of the recruits in a platoon. Younger Recruits fresh out of High School during the summer are more apt to accept any behavior from a DI as authorized. The recruits during the winter and spring tend to be older and are able to see the difference between training and abuse.Most DI's are smart enough to know the nature of the recruits they have in their charge and what they can get away with in walking right up to the line between tough training and being abusive. Sure,I remember missing a meal or two(more like getting back up before finishing the entree) in Boot, but I don't recall being hungry. I also recall being denied a head call or two but never pissing on myself. I did get told to get off the shiter before a PT run because we were told to only take a Number One and not a Number 2 before running.I didn't specifically request a Number 2 so that was that. I never made the mistake of not asking permission to do so if I felt I needed it, after that. The worst I remember is being denied a head call,then going back to the DI TO REQUEST AN EMERGENCY HEAD CALL and being told to run to the head while making the sound of a Police car/Fire engine going to a Code 3 call. Nobody in my platoon shat or pissed themselves due to not getting to the head if they made it know they really had to go. I also recall getting a 2 second shower every now and then. But that really didn't bother me because you are free to get a shower every night during your free time before bed or get up during the night. We also had the interviews by the Series and Company commander's and one of our guys actually did report abuse.(Being hit by the DI) Of course nobody else backed him after the Senior DI gave us a long speech about being a rat and they didn't punch us,just gave us a forearm shiver or had another recruit smack the back of your head by being commanded to raise his hand then bring it down on the top of the target recruits head a few times. If the recruit told,he would then be ratting out his platoon mate who was being forced to smack you. Hell,in third phase,my Senior DI put his NCO sword tip under my chin and forced me up on my tip toes for 5 minutes because I was fucking up his Final Drill prep (I was) so looking back I don't hold it against him. We also played the drink water from a canteen in the name of hydrating until everybody puked. Sure they are PHUC PHUC games and they really suck doing them in third phase,but I never felt my safety or life was endangered. I never was hurt or saw another recruit actually get injured by a DI's actions during Boot Camp and when it was over, I shook their hands.To this day,I still actually laugh at the DI's antics.

It's not really as bad as it seems.Just remember you are in the Chow hall to eat,not talk shop. Sit down,eat,watch your DI out of the corner of your eye.When the DI gets up,you get up. I never felt like I was going hungry in Boot Camp.The DI's tend to lay off a little when you get to third phase(LAST MONTH) and you can see the light at the end of the Tunnel.

We did not have too much trouble with the physical part of boot camp in the 60's. We grew up physical. Didn't have all the social media crap they have now. TV was only a few stations then so we learned to play outside. From football to kick the can. we were outside a lot. We did not lose anyone except a guy that got sick. I think he had cancer. Broke my hand the week before graduation and I finished the last week with a wrap on my hand. Did not want to start over after rehab. Times were different then. I only spent 8 weeks in boot camp. They did not want to lose many at the peak of the Vietnam war. We were not as well trained as well as Marines before and after us. We sure got the civilian beat out of us though. Glad I did not have to endure that for 13 weeks.

I graduated from bootcamp last week Friday, bootcamp is not hard physically, you barely pt in bootcamp, also females can do flex arm hangs or pull ups for pft. You just gotta train for pull ups. Also if you've never been yelled at or everything has been given to you in life than you're probably gonna have a ruff time at bootcamp. Believe it when they say bootcamp is 90 percent mental and 10 percent physical. You'll be drilling a lot and taking a lot of classes

The physical part is honestly not that demanding. You'll be running more than anything else you only need to do 2 pullups to qualify anyways but you don't want the DIs to be the ones "encouraging" you.

There are fat shits that make it through boot camp just like there are muscular athletes who drop out. Most of it is mental. Some people just can't take the pain, to some just the idea or possibility of being in pain, the dread of tomorrow, is enough to make them go insane and fall apart completely. My honest advice is if you want it go for it. But I promise you, right now and up through boot camp will be the peak of your motivation. If you really want it use the time you have to run and get stronger. Find your own motivation, and don't make a big deal about wanting to join the military. You'll be taken much more seriously.

Boot camp was hard nothing like kill hat walking around at night whispering things at you. SOI was harder and being deployed sucked more. But nothing compared to the fleet Hazing if you from the pre Madonna years you know what I’m talking about. Them SGT and SSGT in the chairs have probably never meet the pissed off Senior Lance Corporal or the over obsessed CPL in a vector unit. I got hazed For not know the color of lipstick that female Marines could use. In my head I was like why the hell do I care but for some reason my squad leader thought I needed to know. Bottom line pain retains and even after all the years of being out I still can name every street in Ramadi and know the nomenclature of every weapon in the 03 field. I also would not trade my hard times for the soft times that have fallen on my Corps. Semper Fi NO SHIT

I don't know why everyone talks about Marine Corps boot camp. When you hit the fleet, rarely do you hear Marines talk about bootcamp, and that's because after you get assigned to the fleet, bootcamp isnt really a big deal. Bootcamp is nothing more than an initiation and selection process. You get cold, wet, hungry, tired, and yelled at a lot, not a big deal. But any marine who has been on a combat deployment knows bootcamp is just a tiny fraction of what the USMC is all about. If you wanna join the Marines, then do it! I encourage you, but bootcamp is not a big deal, you just deal with it and move on. That's it.
