Same here, but these are clearly propaganda

I attended TBS from June through November 1968 and arrived in Vietnam in December 1968 to serve a year as an infantry platoon commander. Hard year. I lost too many good Marines killed and wounded. I can verify that the training new officers get at TBS today is much better than it was in 1968. We didn't have nearly as much gear to train with: just a simple uniform, 782 gear from WW II or Korea, a small haversack with an E-Tool, and a military compass. We trained with the M-14 rifle but I was issued and M-16 in Vietnam which I had never used or disassembled before. Unfortunately, my NCOs had to show me how to disassemble it. There was no combat town in 1968 as you see now in the Video. I noticed in the 1970's vintage video there was a combat town, but the only thing we had in 1968 was a mock up of a small Vietnamese village used only for familiarization and not for training. The physical fitness tests in 1968 were more difficult. In 1968 it was called the Physical Readiness Test (PRT) (similar to the current Combat Readiness Test only with more events) which consisted of pullups, pushups, sit-ups, squat thrusts, fireman's carry, 100 year low crawl, and finally a 3 mile run. However this was all done in full combat equipment including rifle and two full canteens. In the summer it was brutal, especially the 3 mile run over hills with full combat equipment as the final PRT event. The M-14 was fairly heavy and awkward to carry while running. After I returned from Vietnam, I was a platoon instructor for two OCS classes and then later was assigned to TBS as an instructor for 3 years. By then the Marines had adopted the new Physical Fitness Test (PFT) which was different than the PFT in the video in that it included pullups, pushups, sit-ups, and 3 mile run in tee-shirt, shorts, and running shoes which was a heck of a lot easier than the PRT. In 1968, the physical fitness during TBS prepared me well for the mental and physical challenges in Vietnam, but virtually all of the training was conventional tactics which did not prepare us well for Vietnam. During my year in Vietnam I think we only had about five company size operations, one battalion size operation, and one regimental size operations. The rest was all platoon and squad patrols in a wide variety of terrains: mountains, coastal pines, rice paddies, jungle, and in dense elephant grass were visibility was no more than 10 feet in any direction. One thing that made Vietnam more difficult than TBS was that my platoon only had one and sometimes two radios. Towards the end of my tour there, my platoon had 3 and sometimes 4 radios. At one point we were issued "squad radios" that fit on the side of the helmet for squad leaders and my platoon guide had one, but they were worthless because you couldn't hear anything during a firefight and they were not on my platoon radio frequency which was dedicated to communicating with the company commander 24/7. Almost all of my commands to my squad leaders were with hand and arm signals in open areas, with a runner in more restricted terrain, and praying that my squad leaders knew what to do on their own in the elephant grass and jungle. I ended up serving 21 years in the Marine Corps commanding 5 platoons, 2 rifle companies, an H&S company, and served as a battalion S-4, and a Brigade G-4 Logistic Operations Officer. Later, I spent 2 years in Latin America supporting counter-insurgency operations with the host country's Army and Navy. My final tour was with US Special Operations Command where I spent most of my time again in Latin America. It was on Hell of a ride. I'd do it all again if I could, but at 77 I'm afraid I'm now permanently retired. Glad to see officer training today is so much better than in 1968. Once a Marine; always a Marine. Semper Fi

I could tell you how it was in the 'Old Corps' circa summer of 1967 at TBS. You know in the last century. But this video reminded me of the passing decades and a brief event I experienced. While our company of 'brown bars' was moving from one classroom to another event we passed by the outdoor garden/patio area outside what I remember was the club at O'Bannon Hall. A group of Marine veterans were gathered there and stood up and applauded us. They were Marine vets of 1917 wishing the best of the 'new Corps' of Lts preparing for their warfighting in Vietnam. 50 years separated our service. Now I see a 50+ year difference and stand up as well and applauded their dedication to become and lead Marines. OooRah!

Did you know that the US and Greece have a long history of military cooperation, dating back to the Greek War of Independence in the 1820s? The US was one of the first countries to recognize Greece as a sovereign nation, and supported its struggle against the Ottoman Empire. Today, the US and Greece conduct joint exercises and operations in the Mediterranean and the Middle East, strengthening their strategic partnership and mutual defense. I think it’s awesome that the Marines get to learn from and work with their allies from different countries and cultures. Keep up the good work, and thank you for sharing this video with us!

TBS is essential for thorough officer development in the USMC. I hit OCS at a time when the Corps desperately needed pilots so I was ordered directly from OCS graduation to flight school. I was elated at the time but years later upon reflection I realized that not completing TBS lowered my overall value to the Corps however fine a pilot I turned out to be. (Served minimum time on active duty to be followed by years in the reserves as a "weekend warrior." Have unending admiration for our USMC infantry and artillery units that we served from the air on multiple occasions.)

Thank you all for keeping us free.

New Marine officers today earn about $3000 a month. As a 2nd Lt platoon commander in Vietnam in 1968-69 I earned $450 a month with $50 combat pay--but I had to pay federal income tax on it. I don't remember if here was a grace period for filing while in combat. Enlisted were exempt from income taxes while in combat.. In Vietnam, we weren't paid by check or cash but rather with a restricted amount of Military Payment Certificates (MPC) which was like Monopoly Money only you could buy things like razor blades, writing paper, pens, and other simple things whenever we were able to return to the battalion cantonment which was located in the middle of nowhere surrounded by a dirt berm and razor wire. In my experience, my platoon was only able to get back to the battalion once every 1-2 months for 3 days of rest and hot meals and then it was back out for another 1-2 months. No such thing as bottled water back then. We filled canteens with whatever water source we could find and doubled the number of water purification tablets recommended to kill as many critters as possible. A lot of times there wasn't enough water to waste on shaving or brushing teeth. It didn't take long for uniforms to begin to rot off. No one wore underwear (skivvies) or socks because they were just something else to get wet and hard to dry out. The boots were uncomfortable at first, but the feet hardened up and it was fine. Resupply helicopters were sometimes unreliable due to terrain, weather, or enemy threats and so one C-Ration had to last 2-3 days. Why only one? Because water and ammo was far more important than food. There was so much preservatives in the C-Rations that we used to joke that if we got killed the morgue wouldn't have to embalm us. There were very few opportunities to bathe on operations and so body odor became somewhat overwhelming, but you got used to it. It was brutally hot in the dry season and it never stopped raining during the monsoons. I don't remember waking up one morning and thinking what a nice day. There were no nice days.

TBS teaches the basics on how to become an Officer. Once they graduate from here they will head to their respective MOS school depending on what branch (specialization) they get assigned.

Interesting that videos like this popping up with what is happening in other parts of the world.

I dont know if they are now teaching the "C-Clamp" for better rifle handling which translates to improved shooting proficiency, marksmanship, and quicker transitions between targets, but I did see many of the students using the C-Clamp when rifle shooting which is awesome imo

I can't wait.

Succeed or Die! Semper Fi! 🇺🇸

29:59 Dip, excitement about contact, first profanity heard. The Marine Corps has found a lifer

Every business insider comment section got the: - schizophrenic - guy who barely speaks English and is rabidly anti-America - guy claiming he either will be or was apart of [subject of the video] - if it's a military video, old retiree claiming that literally everything in the military is easier now because of gender or pronouns or something (he served from '80 - '84 and never deployed) - another schizophrenic - very rarely a person actually asking genuine questions and talking about the video

You forgot the guy convinced of his own moral superiority who is obsessed with being critical of everybody else

Golf Co 1st Plt, 7-22. Good memories

May God protect all these young men and women...!!!

I was CI. Best job i ever had

I wonder if this training is happening in Combat Village, Quantico, VA. As the commander of our local PD’s SWAT component, the USMC allowed us to use this facility a couple of times a year. The Marines also allowed our snipers to practice on their range.

30:54 my boy got his first dip and got his accent all changed

In College right now. Did 2 semesters of Army ROTC. I have profound respect for the US armed forces. Hopefully will join after completing College. Semper Fi Brothers!!!!!

Marines are definitely the most physically fit of all the branches. We need more young people joining.

Once a Marine, always a Marine.😊

Someone finishing in 28 minutes is unheard of. Even 24 minutes is considered "slow". That's something you absolutely should have mentioned. The minimum standard is pretty bad and makes it sound like anyone can do it. Also the idea of having different standards based on gender is insane
