Trell the Great, Thank you Marine. When I made Sergeant, I never forget my Marines in my Squad. I led by example. As far as I'm concerned... Pvt to Cpl are the backbone of the Marine Corps. I'm an old Marine who served 5 Oct 73 to 4 Oct 77. My most memorable time I experienced was late March 1975; loading out the USS BLUE RIDGE and watching Company D and part of H&S Co. 1/9th board the Blue Ridge at White Beach Okinawa. Knowing they were headed to South Vietnam to either defend or evacuate Saigon. So sad, we lost 2 Embassy Marines in a firefight at Tan Son Nhut AFB outside of Saigon. Be safe Marines, "Ears Up Heads Down" behind the wall or in the hole aka foxhole. Semper Fi, long live Chesty Puller.......OUT.

Great job guys! Good to see The Corps is the same after 30+years in the good ways that is! Me and my buddies were exactly were you were over 30 years ago. Same diverse groups from different parts of the country. Suffering together through the same pain and challenges and creating bonds that will last for years. My suggestion to you guys now, is never lose track of each other. Help each other on the outside and get to know arches family. Be there for each other. WHY? Because the outside will never understand what you have been through! They will never understand that you bleed green and don’t see or give a crap about brown, black, white, yellow or red. As I was told on graduation morning by my Senior drill instructor back in 1984 “As you graduate today just remember, there is only Green that resides in The Corps. Whereas there is greenish brown or greenish red or greenish yellow, and the like. You are green, Marine Green to be exact! You will live a Marines life. You will die with or next to the Marine next to you so get know him, get to know his family. For we our brothers, we all bleed the same green and we only have each other to save each other. Don’t you forget that.” Those words left such an enduring impression on me, that I have never forgotten them and have tried to live them every day of my life, even at 54! Semper Fi Marines! And, no worries, you have accomplish so much, that there is nothing you can’t do, once you set your minds to it. Every struggle and hardship I’ve had in life, is look back to my time in The Corps and realize that my struggles really paled in comparison and that I can do it and get through it. Oorah Marines!!!

Nobody is "y'all sgt". They are "your Sgt". Entering the Corps is an introduction to an entire cult. They were taught total emersion in boot camp, which explains the good/bad personality changes. The only life they know is the constant authority thrown at them. Rank happens to be a measuring stick that can be either "your first name" or "entourage". Being part of you, your personality won't change. Being what identifies you, you wear it like a crown. Prior enlisted officers are exceptional leaders rank is "the first name" and they lead by experiences and example. Unlike social media, they don't have to be heard with meaningless blogs. Soon after boot camp and school, they quickly discover the "fork in the road"; become popular or really good at their job. They can't have both. Having a blog is NOT a promotion criteria.

Thanks for the video Marines. I too was 4 and out ('96 to 2000). Most of us are. I was a Motor Transport Officer, first with Truck Company, then Headquarters Battalion, then 1st Marines MTO. I got out for family reasons (wife, kids, sick mother). I found the Corps to be a two pronged beast. Loved it! But some parts definitely suck. Being a junior officer is a great privilege (leading young Marines). Having said that, it's also an incredible challenge. The responsibly is heavy. That's why OCS is the way it is. The attrition rates are high, as the mission is to screen and evaluate for leadership qualities. You get guys there that are PT studs and come from some of the most prestigious schools that don't make it for various reasons (NPQ, failure to adapt, integrity violations, poor leadership, etc.). My most memorable moments? Pick up at OCS. Finding our name and U.S. Marines tapes on our foot lockers after some grueling PT at OCS. Beating my company commander at PT. But mostly just working and training with Marines. It can be intimidating when you first take over a unit. But if you stay humble and listen to your NCO's advice and experiences you're more likely to succeed and earn the respect of those around you. Semper Fi and Ooh Rah! Good job on these videos Trell.

@@hoodiejack Maintenance, more specifically jet maintenance is a very detail oriented career field, every detail has to be right, from the inside of the core down to the very last clamp. It depends what your job is, but in general if troubleshooting/ taking things apart and then puting them back together perfectly with a little toxicity thrown in there sounds fun go for it. If I could've chose a different maintenance job I would've tried to get vehicle maintenance, I'd assume they're less detail oriented, plus you get to learn how to fix your own cars. Jet maintenance gives you a great foundation for car maintenance, but you still won't know how to do shit. To end, if you like to talk shit and put stuff together, you might like it.

And no none of us have directly been in a combat zone. Getting stationed somewhere means that’s where you’re home is, that’s where you live. It’s long term as well, usually stay there the whole term of your contract. A deployment is temporary. Your only in that place for a limited amount of time just to accomplish a certain mission or goal.

Well, all branches are like that. They do their 1 enlistment and get out. The Marine Corps has the lowest defense budget. So they get all the sh^tty equipment, barracks, and food. The people who stay in have no where else to go. So this creates bad leadership and low morale.

@@Jovan_Zae actually that is only partly true. People join and stay for different reasons. The also get out for different reasons. You can join any other branch of the military and you will hear stories about why some stay while others leave. You have to figure out what you want out of life and not let people that have other issues persuade you. Your situation may not be like theirs. I will be honest with you, I changed my mind about staying for the long haul about once a month for the first three years. I am not retired and I have a really good career in the private sector after my time in. A lot of folks that got out now tell me they wished they had stayed in because now they see my retirement benefit on top of what I make in my private sector career. The bottom line is that you have to be your own man. It's good to be a part of a great team and follow good leaders but there is a mixed bag of folks that get out. Some are food people that found their way. Others cannot deal with follow something that other direct them to do. It doesn't make them bad people but they sometimes give the service bad reviews because they wanted to do their own thing. Do you and be you. Good luck in life.

I've been in the service (Navy), I've been a mechanic, and I've worked in white collar professional industries over the last 25 years of my life and here's the truth--the problem of some people "changing" as they're promoted is not isolated to the Corps, or to any service branch. It's a common problem across all types of jobs. I don't pretend to know why it happens, but it does. It happens, I'm sure, for various reasons, but I think often fear is involved--fear of fouling up and fear of living under the scrutiny of superiors who are watching how we handle promotion. It's like we take on a persona or some role we presume is required instead of just being us with new responsibilities....

I served for more than 20 years. I have also been a supervisor in the civilian sector in different industries. When people get promoted they have to change because their responsibility changes. If their personality changes and they become a jerk, they were always a jerk, you just never noticed. People become more of who they are when they attain levels of power. Corporals have to set an example and that should be the most difficult move for a Marine. As you move up through the ranks you learn more about how you affect those you lead. Good people remain good as they ascend and bad people can become worse.

I graduate in two months and I wanna be an 0311 grunt like my papa. But idk man, what would I do when I get out. How would that job give me skills to transfer over to a good civilian job after I serve my four years, so when I get out I can have a good job and my own crib right away? And also there is no major war going on right now, so I'd be training everyday for war but never actually getting to go to one? That would be like me playing basketball everyday but never getting into a game. I might just join the navy and try to be an electricians mate so I can just stack bread when I get out, but idk man, ever since i was a younging I've always wanted to do marines infantry. You got any advice sir?

@@gardennovice7896 You can overcome it, but only if you want to be a Marine bad enough. When I was in boot camp I had a panic attack at the pool and ran back to the barracks. My DI told me that if I didn't pass the test I wouldn't become a Marine. When they schedule me to come back I was shaking but when I got to the pool there were no less than 5 drill instructors their with one at each corner of the pool and none under an E-6. I thought they were there to laugh at me but instead, they were their to assure me they weren't going to let me drown. I summoned up the strength and took the plunge and didn't die. Thanks to the MC I learned I could overcome any fear if I put my mind to it. You just need to trust in your fellow marines and not want to fail. BTW, yes I had a near drowning experience as a child in case anyone's wondering.

there isnt in terms of theyre giving you swirlies and making you do stuff like that, but depending on what unit you end up at you will definitely know that youre on the bottom of the totem pole when you first get there. something nobody wants to do needs to be done? send the new j’s. you will probably be doing working parties, and other stuff that basically sucks. they will remind you constantly that theyre in control, and you are not. not trying to be negative about it, just realistic. most marines can put up with that and just endure but it definitely is not fun or rewarding. once you pick up NCO, the culture behind it dictates that you will be doing just what i described to the new j’s who come while youre an CPL/SGT. other than that, there are a lot of rewarding things you will do while youre in the marine corps and you will be proud of what youve done, and you should be. and trust me you dont have time to really dwell on stuff like that since there is constantly so much shit going on
