00:01.138 --> 00:02.570
- Okay, all of you open your mouth

00:02.570 --> 00:03.670
and scream back at me!

00:03.720 --> 00:05.690
- [Poolees] Aye, ma'am!

00:05.690 --> 00:06.523
- What we're doing here today

00:06.523 --> 00:09.060
is basically teaching
these poolees the basics

00:09.140 --> 00:10.920
of what they're gonna
receive the first few days

00:10.920 --> 00:11.753
at Parris Island.

00:11.753 --> 00:14.925
Once you grab your pack,
you're gonna get in front

00:14.925 --> 00:17.180
of a cot and face the American flag.

00:17.300 --> 00:18.133
Scream aye ma'am.

00:18.133 --> 00:20.010
First we taught them how to respond to us.

00:20.010 --> 00:22.370
A lot of it is just teaching
them the military jargon.

00:22.370 --> 00:23.410
And also we're making sure

00:23.410 --> 00:25.290
that they understand the proper greeting.

00:25.350 --> 00:26.850
Another basic thing we're
doing is making sure

00:26.850 --> 00:28.090
that they say something back when someone

00:28.090 --> 00:28.947
is saying something to them.

00:28.947 --> 00:30.840
(poolees yelling)
(DI screaming)

00:30.840 --> 00:33.550
I think it's important to train
the poolees before they go

00:33.550 --> 00:35.330
to Recruit Training to at
least give them the taste

00:35.330 --> 00:36.760
of what's gonna be out there.

00:36.760 --> 00:39.320
'Cause a lot of misconceptions
about Parris Island

00:39.660 --> 00:40.830
and Marine Corps Recruit Training.

00:40.830 --> 00:42.650
So I think it helps them understand

00:42.650 --> 00:43.930
that these are the Drill Instructors,

00:43.930 --> 00:46.355
and this is how they're
gonna act towards them.

00:46.355 --> 00:48.000
(counting down)

00:48.030 --> 00:49.350
5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

00:49.350 --> 00:50.240
- [Poolees] Done, ma'am!

00:51.770 --> 00:52.603
- Lights!

00:53.819 --> 00:56.995
- [Poolees] Lights,
lights, lights, aye ma'am!

00:56.995 --> 00:58.090
- After you shut your mouth,

00:58.090 --> 00:59.320
I don't want to hear a freaking
word, scream aye ma'am.

00:59.320 --> 01:00.470
- [Poolees] Aye, ma'am!
