United States Marine Corps Training Program
Transcript
00:00During phase 1, recruits learn that their civilian bodies aren't good enough.
00:05Phase 1 training focuses on turning their civilian bodies into the bodies of Marines.
00:12This is done through a rigorous routine of endurance and resistance exercises.
00:17Running will build their cardiovascular endurance,
00:20and events like the circuit course will build muscle strength and stamina
00:25to forge them into the best shape of their lives.
00:28They're going to need it for the trials they face ahead.
00:34Here, discipline will begin to be instilled in recruits by disorienting them
00:39and breaking them from old civilian habits and mindsets.
00:42Drill instructors begin reinforcing the mental and physical standards
00:47needed to perform under stressful situations that could be experienced in combat.
00:52The purpose of phase 1 is to mentally and physically challenge the recruits.
00:57At this point, civilian habits are completely detrimental to training,
01:02so they are eliminated during this period through intense physical training,
01:07strict routines, discipline, and intense instruction.
01:11The process is designed to enable recruits to learn to survive in combat situations,
01:16and to adapt and overcome any unexpected situation.
01:20One of the principal ideals learned during this period is that recruits are not to think of themselves as individuals.
01:27They are not permitted to use the first person pronoun, I.
01:31Instead, recruits refer to themselves as this recruit, and all tasks are designed with teamwork in mind,
01:40and recruits are expected to conform to a standard that does not tolerate personal eccentricities.
01:46It is a fast-paced, intense period in the transformation of civilian to marine.
