Well. Camp sucks, it's going to hurt, it's going to be painful, but it's only going to hurt more if you look at it that way for a round, so there are no encounters supposed to prepare you for the challenges that lie behind us. We spent five days in Paris. island where we saw different companies in various stages of training you will not run you will walk get on a yellow footprint right now you will do what you told yourself to do when you thought to do it and without a doubt you will understand it on the first day of starting camp, the new recruits arrive at the reception barracks where they take their first steps towards becoming marines by walking through these silver hatches that symbolize the threshold between the outside world and the island of Paris once and never again once inside the recruits are processed and assigned after graduation the Marines commit to a minimum of four years of service upon entering the core, an entry-level soldier will earn around $20,000 a year.

I guess I didn't tell you who's requirement is to make a phone call to a

family

member or your recruiter to let them know I've arrived, this is the recruit hatchery, they're only allowed to read the script printed for them inside the phone bank. . I will contact you in 7 to 9 days later with my new address. Thanks for your support. Recruits have three chances to get someone on the line, not all recruits can make a connection if there is one, hello sir, but you won't have to think about it much. The Marine Corps Recruit Depot on Paris Island is located on 8,000 acres of lower South Carolina, it is one of two enlisted recruit depots in the United States, the other being in San Diego, where they only train. male recruits.
About 20,000 recruits graduate on Paris Island each year before joining the more than 180,000 Marines actively serving today. We take young men and women from all walks of life all cultures maybe they were rich maybe they were poor they have different religious backgrounds they are the melting pot of America and they come here with a common goal and that is the marine state of the united states island of paris South Carolina Here Every Day Americans Become Marines The World's Toughest Fighters Male recruits have been training on Paris Island since 1915. Female recruits began training there in 1949. Women make up less than 25 of recruits on Paris Island and approximately 8 from the United States Marine Corps, the lowest percentage of any united army. military branch of the states a recruit's day begins before the sun rises his typical wake up call is from 0 to 400 or 4 a. m. physical challenges 13 points yes sir some recruits arrive in better shape than others some never come out other than sit on the couch again like couch potatoes and some may have been college athletes so there is a wide variety of what their disability is of athletic physical condition.
Much of their training occurs here at Leatherneck Square, where a series of intimidating obstacles run through the training program which is progressive in nature and begins in the front crawl. approach walk run during training 99.9 of those who come here can complete all of those requirements by the end of the training, regardless of how they started. Any recruit with a fear of heights has the opportunity to conquer that fear, courtesy of this 47-foot-tall tower. Repel downward using two different methods, for fear of heights, with your right hand. You have to rely on a rope, so there is nothing to worry about.
You will be safe. Can you please hug me? I'm trying to help you. I do not do it. I don't want to go down, recruits with a phobia of heights have no choice but to face their fears. One of the most feared parts of training is the gas chamber where recruits are exposed to CS gas, more commonly known as tear gas. riot police and stuff is that once the recruits enter the chamber, they break the seals on their gas masks, you walk in, you feel it instantly hit your skin, you just feel burning, it feels like those few minutes seem like an hour After about five minutes, the recruits are free, but the pain definitely lingers, thank God for the fresh air, it's really nice to be able to breathe and not feel an instant collapse, yes, it's important because it builds confidence, trust in the team , confidence in the drone shutters and then confidence in themselves, the recruits.
They are trained in different styles of hand-to-hand combat. The first thing we want to see is that the key aspect of your martial arts training is fighting with bugle sticks. The bugle stick techniques are intended to mirror those used in combat when using a bayonet here in In the Marine Corps we have a kind of ditty that means red is dead, so the red side is supposed to It emulates the actual knife portion of the actual bar on the finial of the weapon, so anything you hit with that red tip nine times and ten are either incapacitated or entombed, honestly, it gives them a chance to let loose a little stick.
They have a lot of aggression, especially toward maybe their instructors. They are out there. They are actually doing what they feel they signed up for. What you need to do is learn to combat enemy recruits, also practice with real bayonets and engage in other types of hand-to-hand combat, although male and female recruits intersect during training, platoons are separated by gender and although the recruit depot has experienced. with integration before the marine corps is the only military branch that separates male and female recruits during basic training according to the marine corps is first and foremost a rifleman recruits spend the better part of two weeks dedicated to marksmanship, in the first of which few shots are fired First, the fundamentals: they have to understand how to aim, they have to understand exactly how to breathe when they shoot, they have to understand exactly how to pull the trigger and how to have continuous recovery with rifle combat operations .
It is the foundation of every Marine, regardless of what their occupation, the Marine Corps is defined as an amphibious warfare force, therefore swimming plays a key role in training during swim week, recruits They perform numerous exercises in the pool while wearing their camouflage uniforms, brutal training but On Paris Island it is not all physical fruits, they also spend long hours in the classroom, but what may seem like downtime can end at any moment when an instructor decides to order an impromptu cardio session on Paris Island, it's what's known as being murdered, okay? then you realize, okay, that hurts, so let's not do it again physically, it hurts, but I personally never worried about the pain I was causing in my body, the mistake I made and how I should correct it was one thing.
Next time. There's going to be some chaos because when they come here we want to break them down a little bit and we want to get them back into the mold of what it is to be United States Marine recruit training culminates in an event known as the crucible. Over the course of 54 hours, with minimal sleep and food, recruits must endure realistic combat scenarios. The sounds of gunfire and shelling are played through speakers mounted in the training area. Recruits are forced to work together to overcome obstacles and achieve goals that require problem solving and strategy. This is what we saw on the second day.
The recruits have become exhausted and irritable. Oh, you keep looking at the person on the left and here, and you say, "Well, he's doing it. I have to carry on as if he's not." let him do it so there is no reason not to push once the crucible is completed these recruits officially become marines the day before graduation friends and

family

see their new marines for the first time in over three months families have come By graduation day, they have not seen their son or daughter in about three months. You immediately notice not only a physical difference but also an intangible difference.
When they cross Africa on a 870 train and graduate, they are no longer recruits, they are simply Marines. They leave to put a stolen clip in their faces Meanwhile at the Lima company headquarters I'm talking to you, are you here? new recruits diligently arrange their racks before being warmly greeted by their senior instructor and look at me, our mission is to try to make each of you a United States Marine discipline and spirit of the distinguishing characteristics of a Marine. We will do our best to train you even after some of you have given up. From now on, you will treat me and all other Marines with the same highest respect, physical or formal abuse by any Marine or recruit will not be tolerated.
Now they abuse my pharmacies. You every day, wherever you go, you must get 100 percent of yourself, above all, never give up. I will give up. We offer you the challenge and the opportunity. to buy time US Navy Wow, do you think you guys could go through that? Actually, no, no, oh man, it's pretty hard, uh, the mental game, yeah, you guys won't like to quit any time? I think they just said no. You are allowed to give up, so you are not allowed to quit. I don't know, you're not allowed to be like oh oh wait, I didn't realize it was going to be like that after you become a marine, you can't do it? anything you commit to four years, yeah, you commit to four years in the marine corps and I think it's actually a crime if you're a deserter, if you're in battle or if you really are, I think if you're a marine or me.
You think about the army and move away from your mission. I think you're abandoning your role. That? And it's OK. Can they accuse you? I guess I'm not sure. I'm not sure about modern times, but I mean times. You used to get killed, you used to get taken away and killed for doing that wow, for leaving your role as a soldier or for leaving your position or leaving your duties, so it's like you run the risk of being killed or just being killed right away, yeah , Yeah. That's how it was before, I don't know now, maybe you guys could clarify that for us, but I know that being a deserter used to be a crime punishable by prison or death, wow, but yeah, I don't know.
I don't know what it's like in the Marines, I don't think they touched on that in this video, so what attracts these people to become Marines?
