Ironic that they have the recruits yeah "Discipline".
It's sad for me to watch this, our country is in peril. This is just another example of how far we have fallen.
America has a weight problem. All of the ridiculous 'body positivity' and pushback against 'fat shaming' has ruined our collective health.
A lot of it is processed food and not enough education on nutrition and exercise.

@@mementomori6830 The commenter implied that looking at today’s USMC DI’s, one realizes that Goner PILE didn’t kill himself but became the many “heavyweight” DI’s you see today. Things are not always literal but often more allegorical, sometimes paradoxical, or oftentimes comical for emphasis.
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.
Damn! 0530!!!! They got easy!

You noticed that too. 🤣
Being in the military, my biggest fear has always been not being able to perform under pressure when things matter. Going easy on recruits and “softening” the standards does not help military members, it weakens them.
we find that out when they have to fight, it's IMMORAL to train people poorly and then send them to fight and die. the enemy has no mercy when you meet him
Look at the surge of PTSD cases - by stressing them in boot, you weed out the weak ones. Not saying there weren't PTSD cases before, but at this point you don't have ANY clue how these people will perform under pressure until it is too late.
Train hard, fight easy.
@@adb888They also need to identify those who are most susceptible to PTSD and plenty of WWII vets had PTSD.

This is the consequences of lowering the standards/requirements, of joining the army. Even the police if you didn't want to be in the military.
My point exactly. Too many lax standards and it’s even bleeding in to LE Agencies with their lax grooming standards.
@@roostershooter76honestly who cares? It’s not like they’re trying to become a doctor, and struggling with recruitment, yeah they can afford to relax standards
@@jayjyuri8796OK KAREN.
The US wastes billions on wars that they can't win and you're upset about the appearance of a barrack's rooster?
@@jayjyuri8796you think for one second the standards drop won’t effect occupations like the medical field? It’ll happen eventually, either through direct action because there aren’t enough POC/gay/women doctors or necessity because their education has suffered through lax standards elsewhere or staffing shortages. And yes, recruitment for law enforcement and the military are at historical lows. Probably because the younger generations have been repeatedly told the US is the worst and most racist country on the planet for the last 10 years, and we’re currently on the verge of the largest potential global conflict in human history. Thinking lax standards on those who create holes in people won’t directly or indirectly affect those who patch holes in people is simply disingenuous. There are numerous variables that suggest this will be the case.

One thing I'll always remember about my time in Army boot camp in 1980 was how good the DSs looked. Clean shaven, ripped, trimmed nails, perfect uniforms. Someone who demanded respect from their physical appearance alone.
As long as they could fight. They might have looked good because they were workout warriors who maybe did not have good combat knowledge.

@@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.

It'd became gay.
My son graduated from Boot Camp in San Diego last month. He said they were kept separate from the females and hardly saw them. Also, the new Marines all seemed squared away to me and the DI's I saw and met were lean and salty.
Yeah lots of oldies on here trying to prove they are worth something. This generation has gone to war and seen more combat than anyone in the 80's era - these old guys who rant on about not in my day are just salty and milking KZhead views. Be proud of your son!
Yea these guys in the 80s era butthurt they didn't do sh*t but pretend to fight. Yea that DI is overweight, but the dude is out there hustling and who knows what he's going through.
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.
That's interesting. In the Army you have to pass both the PFT and the HT/WT. I've seen soldiers do well on one but fail the other. Boggled my mind.
@@LA_CommanderNot true anymore. If you score a 540, you're exempt

My sister who is not even 100lbs soaking wet and 5' nothing with cerebral palsey wanted to become an EMT, she couldnt drag or pick up the 75lb dummy and was proud that she *miraculously* passed and was an EMT.

It's DAMN shameful and should be treated as such, it pisses me off to no end to see physically incompetent people making into literally VITAL positions.
That is NOT a Marine. That is an embarrassment to the uniform, the Corp, and all those that held the standard.

The best depiction of a D.I. I have ever seen was Jack Web in the movie the D.I. in 1956. My D.I. was like that. He didn't "pretend yell", he growled at a low decibel level, but asserted his authority. "Gimmie that Ol' time Marine Corps, it's good enough for me." You're right about the love handles. If one of the guys in my squad bay would have looked like that, he would be on permanent PT until he lost 'em. AAAUUURRRRRAH!
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.
That one drill instructor is not only grossly overweight, but his trousers are about 3-4 inches short.
Lowering the standards is the beginning of the end
Not really they make great infantry men and artillery men.

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.
Ah yeah, we got those stress cards too. Luckily for us they took them all on day one to keep them safe so we didn't lose them. Never saw one again after that.
Show a stress card to the enemy when in combat and see what happens!
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.
