Ears, Open. Eyeballs, Click. has played on Direct TV Documentary Channel for the last several years. This documentary will show you 12 weeks of recruit training like never before.
I am currently running down the road to DI School and asked the SSgt for some advise expecting someone else to email back weeks after my post. I recieved a email that night from the SSgt himself. He answered my questions and also had another Marine contacted me as well. SSgt is the kind of Marine every Devil Dog should strive to be! Semper Fi,,, CPL ST.JOHN USMC MAG-49 4th MAW METOC 6842
Incredible documentary. Ive never seen a true experience like this. Only Hollywood attempts or scaled down versions recruiters show enlistees. Thank you SSgt for creating this. I showed my girlfriend one of the YouTube videos and told her it was exactly what it was like, I think it helped her understand and appreciate what we as Marines went through, and thats not even combat, fleet or the years afterwards in which the intensity never stops. Im sure there where haters that didnt like the idea of filming there, but I hope after seeing it that they can understand why. Every platoon loses what? 20%. 30%, or 40% of its recruits from beginning to graduation, maybe after watching the real thing they can better understand what in the hell they are getting into lol.
This is my first visit to your blog. I'll be back to read yo again soon. ~AM
