- Aye sir.

01:20.856 --> 01:23.376
Sit up straight and look at me.

And I am your senior drill instructor.

Our mission is to train

01:39.508 --> 01:43.327
each one of you to become a United States Marine.

01:43.327 --> 01:44.750
A marine is characterized as one who

01:44.750 --> 01:47.431
possesses the highest of military virtues.

01:47.431 --> 01:48.764
He obeys orders,

01:48.854 --> 01:50.604
respects his seniors,

01:50.804 --> 01:54.971
and strives constantly to be the best at everything he does.

01:55.558 --> 01:57.308
Discipline and spirit

01:57.712 --> 01:59.459
are the hallmarks of a marine.

01:59.459 --> 02:01.451
Each one of you can become a marine

02:01.451 --> 02:03.238
if you develop discipline

02:03.238 --> 02:04.155
and spirit.

02:04.823 --> 02:05.823
We will give

02:05.961 --> 02:07.424
every effort to train you

02:07.424 --> 02:08.927
even after some of you

02:08.927 --> 02:10.715
have given up on yourselves.

02:10.715 --> 02:11.798
Starting now,

02:11.975 --> 02:13.113
you will treat me

02:13.113 --> 02:15.795
and all other marines with the highest respect.

02:15.795 --> 02:17.379
We have earned our places as marines,

02:17.379 --> 02:19.167
we'll accept nothing less than that

02:19.167 --> 02:20.000
from you.

02:20.874 --> 02:22.825
We will treat you as we do our fellow marines

02:22.825 --> 02:23.992
with firmness,

02:24.369 --> 02:25.202
fairness,

02:25.506 --> 02:26.339
dignity,

02:26.644 --> 02:27.894
and compassion.

02:28.107 --> 02:28.940
Physical

02:29.164 --> 02:30.789
or verbal abuse by any marine

02:30.789 --> 02:33.539
or recruit will not be tolerated.

02:34.527 --> 02:36.315
If anyone should abuse or mistreat you,

02:36.315 --> 02:39.160
I expect you to report such incidences immediately to me,

02:39.160 --> 02:41.273
or one of my drill instructors.

02:41.273 --> 02:43.426
Furthermore, if you feel that I have mistreated you,

02:43.426 --> 02:45.946
you will report it to your series commander.

02:45.946 --> 02:49.603
My drill instructors and I will be with you every day,

02:49.603 --> 02:51.520
everywhere that you go.

02:52.163 --> 02:54.113
I've told you what my drill instructors and I will do.

02:54.113 --> 02:56.946
From you, we demand the following,

02:57.527 --> 03:01.428
you must give 100% of yourself at all times,

03:01.428 --> 03:03.428
obey all orders quickly,

03:03.711 --> 03:04.544
willingly,

03:05.288 --> 03:07.038
and without question.

03:07.203 --> 03:08.625
Treat every marine

03:08.625 --> 03:09.542
and recruit

03:09.966 --> 03:12.133
with courtesy and respect.

03:12.567 --> 03:13.567
You will not

03:13.908 --> 03:16.061
physically abuse, or verbally threaten

03:16.061 --> 03:18.228
another marine or recruit.

03:19.150 --> 03:21.750
Be completely honest in everything that you do.

03:21.750 --> 03:23.254
A marine never lies

03:23.254 --> 03:24.087
or cheats.

03:24.757 --> 03:27.886
Respect the rights and properties of all others.

03:27.886 --> 03:29.719
A marine never steals.

03:29.958 --> 03:31.458
You must work hard

03:31.462 --> 03:32.884
to strengthen you body,

03:32.884 --> 03:33.801
your spirit

03:34.510 --> 03:35.677
and your mind.

03:36.298 --> 03:38.776
Be proud of yourself in the uniform you wear.

03:38.776 --> 03:40.359
And above all else,

03:40.361 --> 03:41.194
never quit

03:41.539 --> 03:42.372
or give up

03:42.880 --> 03:44.380
for me or for you.

03:44.587 --> 03:46.253
The challenge of recruit training

03:46.253 --> 03:47.594
and the opportunity to earn the title

03:47.594 --> 03:49.247
United States Marine.
