so at other boot camps in the land of freedom did they have some gay ceremony prior to graduation after you completed a big obstacle course or whatever where they give you a new ball cap and everyone stands at attention while god bless the usa plays and half the recruits start crying?

No, but we did have a bunch of dudes break down the first Sunday they had us all go to church. I went to mass which had almost no fanfare at all, just a bunch of recruits saying the Lord's prayer and eating crackers then hearing some Spanish LCpl sing some hymn I'd never heard before. But we came out and all the one's who went to the non-denominational protestant poo poo were all teary eyed from lovely Christian rock power ballads

It was awful. That and that terrible Toby Keith song about a boot in your rear end or whatever.

I don't know what they do after the current iteration of battlestations at navy bootcamp these days, but back in the day when we used to have to run around base all night singing cadence (except along the stretch of the base that neighbors some land oprah owns or something) they stack you all in a room the next morning, take away your recruit ballcap, and give you that says navy on it while patriotic music plays.

We had a lame ceremony the day before graduation where they gave each of us a coin, and they stopped calling us trainees and started calling us airmen. Re: crying. The first Sunday of basic, we went to the chapel for the religious services briefing. I was amazed by how many dudes broke down when they made us watch the.music video for Letters From War. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uuvbBwsMTgI Phone posting with a browser, so I don't know if this link works.

on our 20-30k *dont remember because its been nearly 10 years* ruck back from our 5 day FTX at cav scout OSUT, as we hit the barracks area in the middle of the lawn they had set up an area where the Troop Co. was standing on some small stage but they had two loudspeakers blasting "For Those About to Rock". It was super gay and a majority of people were excited because we were done with training and ready to graduate, and the music symbolized being done with that god awful ruck. After that we had a bunch of civilians meet with us and be all patriotic and poo poo but were merely trying to figure out if we had drill sergeants beating us, since we had one who got relieved of his command for choking out a kid...Briefly. And I think within the regiment some dude ended up with a broken bone at the expense of a drill sergeant. Aside from that, america is loving awesome and gently caress the haters we're gonna keep making sick rear end music with dank beats and awesome bass drops so if you don't like it suck my freedom shooting dick from behind.

If you didn't spend what little "free" time you had on Sundays dreaming up lists of foods with the dudes in your bay, then what the gently caress kind of basic did you have? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhnUgAaea4M

America washes its eggs like this. Europe washes its eggs like...they don't even wash their eggs, man. You buy that egg with poo poo on the shell. poo poo. On the shell.

Several retards in my class rose to attention when the Tops In Blue guy started singing "Proud to be an American" like it was the national anthem or some poo poo. I guess if you're white and from Mississippi, it's that or "Dixieland."

The most "'MURICA" thing we did in basic was when they gave us our dogtags at the end of BEAST "play a soldier" week. They got us in formation in full fuckin' battle rattle, and when we about- faced they'd lowered a fuckoff huge flag, started playing some random FUCKIN AMERICA YEEHAW country song and all the Sgts came out in front of the flag like we were re-enacting that scene from Patton after that I sure did love my country, yessir

when we got back to our squadron they made us give our dogtags back until we graduated

I went to church for like the first 2 weeks in bootcamp, then some weird evangelical people showed up and wanted us to fill out some questionnaire about how we found god or some poo poo. Creeped me the gently caress out, so I never went again. Then I just spent my sunday mornings

How did this turn in to the dumb basic stories thread? There was so much potential.
