​@@ethanweeter2732I went through OSUT in Fort Leonard Wood, Mo in 1981. Most of the Drill Sergeants were Vietnam Veterans and those had CIBs. One was a veteran of the 173rd Airborne Brigade and had the coldest blue eyes. He never smiled and never joked.

Spent 15 in US Army infantry, but also did 3 years in recruiting ( 3 awful years). The thing that contradicts this era was parents coming to see me once their child had returned from basic. They couldn’t believe the transformation. They called their father “Sir”, mom was “ma’am”, they made their bed, cleaned their room, cleaned their plate at dinner, helped around the house, were generally more respectful to their siblings. Boot Camp and their equivalents in other services, even Navy and Air Force, transformed recruits into men and women. They arrived young and immature. They left with steel in their posture. Nowadays, they post Facebook shorts on how “sucky” it is they have to get up at 0530. This is deliberate. Something destructive is occurring. Better wake up.

Join the Marine Corps in 1977, never saw a drill, instructor look like that

If you run above a 285 PFT you are exempt from height and weight standards. They will drop you in drill instructor school if you do not make height and weight and you will be relieved from duty if at any time you are not within standard, therefore this guy must be a PT stud and is exempt. Drill instructor duty is no joke and they have no problem relieving people at any given time. We had a Sgt in my unit who just couldn’t seem to lose any weight, he was 5’11 and 240 and not muscular… Somehow this guy was one of the fastest guys in our unit and ran perfect 300 PFTs every time. It was mind boggling watching that big guy run so effortlessly.

Navy boot camp 1972, we did in fact run in the squad bay, usually for some infraction. The over the top rack, then under the next one, over the top etc. all the way around both sides of the squad bay, guys piling up on each other. We had to keep doing this until it was done orderly with no pile ups. Riot squad inspections, with Company Commanders throwing clothes and gear around, then hold an inspection in 15 minutes later, all clothing items back in their owners locker. Quite the mad house and quite the experience.

This is because a lot of PT is left up to the individual now as opposed to forming up for organized PT. This has been going on for a long time like this & it's mostly because of the numbers that's in now & the numbers of them that's on constant deployment.

Clever for them to hire on some whales to improve their amphibious landing capabilities

We had a green belt that looked sorta like that big green belt in the video, but he wasn't fat, he was ranked as the most in-shape DI in the company and was in MARSOC. Dude knew his stuff and jacked us up to levels one wouldn't believe.

A few years ago, my college professor, who was a retired Marine drill instructor, told me how, in his time, he was allowed to physically discipline recruits. Nowadays, however, recruits are given a card to flash stating that they have anxiety and are not to be yelled at. He found this to be pathetic.

This urban legend has been around for 30 years. There have never been stress cards in Marine Corps boot camp. The Navy did have a Blue card in the 90’s for a very short period but, it was virtually pointless and abandoned shorty after inception.

There is no such thing as a "stress card."

3rd Battalion Mike Company: Had a buddy that was a drill instructor. One of his friends suffered an injury while on the billet. He gained some weight while on his medical leave, he came back a little fluffy however he lost it pretty quick.

My drill sergeant in the army was prior Marines and he was the best drill sergeant ever. He trained us like marines. He was funny, and he would poke jokes at us.

The military should lead the way in physical fitness and nutrition this is obscene

It's not the same Corps, me and some brothers went to visit Camp Horno a couple of years ago for the Marine Corps birthday. There was trash outside everywhere. Fat bodies walking around. They got air conditioners in the barracks now. Marines didn't know what Mount MF was. We as 40+ men where out humping enlisted Marines up mountain. A Lcpl told me that he got in trouble for calling a boot a bitch. It was a sad sight to see.

Standards have been lowered for years. Also the constant push of carbs and processed oils/foods being pushed to the Americans has lead to the majority of us being obese or overweight.

Recruit 3rd Bn ‘82, Hat 1st Bn ‘87. God help us! Semper Fi Brother!

This is completely different from what goes on over here in SD. Probably because of how much trouble PI been getting into

Took my basic with 101st airborne then to ft.Knox for armor training, then to vietnam, with 4th inf div. armor RECON.

Thank you for your continued service Mr.Jameson.

Parris Island... Oh how the mighty have fallen... This is ENTIRELY different than in 97...

Jameson: You're right on point. Tragic.

In the Canadian Army, many of the instructors were shafted to be instructing during the summer or were reservists / university students taking a summer job. So yeah, not expecting them to be all athletes over there, but still guys in pretty good shape. Now if your full time job is to be a DI, and you've got love handles, uh, yeah, no.

The worst people among us rose to the top while losing the 20 year terror war. Understand that fact and understand the current tragedy. Results matter remember? Especially when it comes to losing long wars.

Thank you for sharing the changes. Dam, you are good at what you do. Semper Fi.

1st Bn A Co. PI here Jamie. 1990 and the 2D BN chow hall is what we ate at until we went to the range. As for the portly Marine, it is not just the expansion of his blouse as a giveaway, considering g he could still be in standards, but his pockets on his trousers and his blouse are indicators that he is not in a fitted uniform and should never have been allowed to be in front of our recruits. We cannot say for sure he is out of standards, but his uniforms definitely not properly fitting.

My SDI had a paunch just like that and he consistently ran 1st class PFTs. 😉

Merely a reflection of our devolving society. Very sad. Our adversaries certainly see this insanity.

you mean dissolving society

Back in July 66 our DI's at PI were squared away and in great shape, running us into the ground during PT around the Island, going from the rear of the Platoon to the front then repeating as needed.

This particular DI is probably the NCOIC of the fat camp. (For those of you who haven't served, that's where they take the new recruits from the initial processing station, the ones who are overweight, and PT them all day and starve them until they are ready to actually begin basic training. It's kind of like an in-house "prep school" for basic.)
