umm.. hate to tell you this buddy.. i am was a marine served in iraq and was discharged honorably after my 1st enlistment. i also help train marines for micmap.
i simply am stating that boot camp isnt physically difficult.. i would know, i did my boot camp in san diego did the reaper. i have bn shot, mortared and i have to be an idiot to bring unarmed lil kids to combat with me.
bootcamp is designed for the average nasty civilian not for jocks or fit athletes.

you can be taught bruce lee rambo sh#@ but if you are a pu#$y then it doesnt matter what you know.
marine boot camp is a joke.. my TKD kid students would laugh at a marine recruit due to how easy the marine combat exercises are.
but my TKD student would probably cry at being yelled out and kept sleep deprived constantly..
you can train for a yr and still be a p@##y
its about combat mindset.. also bootcamp may be 3 months but it doesnt stop u then go into infantry training or Mos school

No they are not. End of story.
It takes 11 months to be able to call yourself Fallskärmsjägare (Paratrooper) in Sweden but only 9 Weeks to able to call yourself a marine.
I’m not saying that the U.S Marines are pussy’s because they are not, they are just not that special. The only reason that they experience (The Marines) bootcamp like hell is because most of them are used to the civilian life.
Just face it, they are good. But not even close to the Elite.

i’ll admit it is easy it is the sleep deprivation and lack of food that screws with a person..
my teakwondo 5 to 8 yr old students would laugh and could finish the crucible physical test easy.. like the hump up of the reaper..
its the malnourishment that makes it hard and bein singled out if you are a healthy specimen they try to break those the most as an example.

@2Pac515 This is not training video. This is PR/PIO video. I personally think you’d get your butt whipped were you to try. I know this. You would come out with a new, improved attitude because your DI would see that you do.

i agree.. although you dont have an official contract till you are in hell week and they redo your contract which cancels your previous contract at the recruiters office saying that you were not promised anything nor mos is guaranteed. even then you can walk out of boot camp if you want they cant hold you against your will even though they will try to trick you into thinking so.
