My Dad was a Drill Sergeant. He taught me so many things. Discipline, Courtesy. How to be observant. Professionalism. How to walk and speak with confidence. Appearance- how to spit shine my boots which I still do today. The importance of cleaning my room and making my bed. The understanding that perfection IS possible. Love you Dad- see you on the other side

Don’t worry about it. You’ll get smoked no matter what. Just know that every time they’re smoking you, you’re getting stronger and becoming a better soldier My recruiter told me he had that same problem. He said the drill sergeants nicknames him “smilie” and smoked him every time he smiled but he couldn’t help it. By the end of basic training he had the best PT score out anyone in his company That’s the mindset you gotta have. A mind set of not quitting, of knowing NBC everything you do is making to better, and knowing that one day this will end and you just got to get to that point

Great advices: 1.) avoid creating unwanted attention. 2.) observe everything around. 3.) be a team player. 4.) Don't quit / Never give up.

I drilled with the unit in this video 53rd IBCT, great unit. I got discharged from the National Guard after 2 1/2 years of fighting tooth and nail to go to basic. Now I'm re-enlisting as active duty Marines

Just to clarify, some parts of this are not videos of basic training. Parts of the video are from a National Guard RSP unit that prepares soldiers for basic training by conducting simulations and training events with National Gaurd Drill Sergeants.

From some of the comments that I have read, many sound like a bunch of sissies, cowards and among other things that I would like to say about your. Basic training was longer and like night and day compare to now. Over the years I have returned to see what the training is like for the new recruits and I don't feel that they in the long run are being prepared properly for survival in a war situation. I survived my tours in Vietnam and my military career because of the basic training and other advance training. So many don't realize how fortunate they are to be living in the United State of America.

I was 17 and scared shitless with all those drill sergeants screaming in my face. We were supposed to execute a left face. I started right then went left. The Drill Sergeant dumped the contents of my gym bag on the ground and pulled my gym bag over my head, zipped it up around my neck but not before cracking open an ammonia capsule. I couldn’t breathe, I couldn’t see, I was gasping for air. He was snickering but I never confused my right with my left again.

I remember getting ready to go down the rappel tower, the DS was securing the rope with the D-Ring and he looks over to the other DS working on my Battle Buddy and said that he forgot how to do it on my D-Ring (mine was larger than most) the other DS took a look and said that he'll do it one way on mine and one way on the other guy and see which one works. Needless to say that did NOT help my fear of heights.

Don’t be afraid. This video is Benning and that’s home of infantry. When you arrive to your bct you’re gonna learn that the worst part is reception. Reception for me in Sill had me second guessing, but when I made it to my battery it was a breeze. Just listen and execute. Make sure you learn The Army Song and Soldiers Creed, you’re still gonna get smoked because other people won’t know it, but that’s basic for you. Also, being physically fit will help you a lot. It’s true that you’ll come out stronger either way, but it helps out a lot. Also, for the love of god, do not be afraid of going to sick call. Seriously. If you are injured just go. I got a grade 4 stress fracture at the start of basic and I still graduated on time. Not going will make your injuries worse and you’ll end up being a recycle or you make it to AIT and won’t be able to do anything. My AIT was 6 months long and we had people who couldn’t do PT almost the entirety of that because they didn’t go to sick call in bct and were so messed up.

I LOLed at "15 minutes to eat" . . . Yeah okay lol. Good luck if you're the last one to sit down.

DS “ if you want to taste real food, graduate”😂

I went through Army Basic in 1985. So when did they changed the name from "Basic" to "Boot?" And to be honest, I've seen in person when the press or anyone in media shows up and they bump up the over the top stunts like screaming at people getting in their faces screaming, and so on. I feel sorry to this when the the press/media show up and the troops have to endure all the CREATED DRAMA for no good reason.

*been there and done that - 1977 A-42 - FLW*

Iron Star Of Mordian I wonder if the Drill Instructors at Marine Bootcamp are the same way?

That one ds had a 278th army national guard patch

Never smile at basic draining otherwise you'll get smoke.

I see soldiers with old ACU's, a rank, and a unit patch... How are they recruits when they have a unit patch on and ACU's? They all look like they are in reception.

I’d be smiling and laughing because that’s how I dealt with my abusive dad before he killed himself, just laugh it off. Helped me stay sane.

Geez man, Jesus loves you!

That one recruit with the glasses had 3 drill instructors yelling at him at the same time.

15 minutes to eat?! Yea time starts when the first soldier sits down😂. Last one only gets 2 minutes

Seeing that kid being yelled at reminded me of myself when I joined at 17 years old.

This is what i want for 16-18. For ALL!!

the is a sweet volume.

1:26 sounds like the dude from South Park 😂

Ft. Sill - and this brings back some memories. Of course, back in the 80s they did more than just yell - a lot of foul language was used.

I am comparing the basic training for each branch of service , there is no difference except the environment the recruites will be working in when basic combat training is completed . I hadn’t thought about that before . But the different services don’t mix . Each service fights in the environment they were trained in . Now about the us space force … I wanna check that service out , to see the difference . Um my understanding is that their tasks are mostly terrestrial , but with a cyber mission scope .
