What Did Your D.i. Call You

PAPA G · 01-19-2004, 12:18 PM

for me it was trainee, or last name with snarling disgust. most of time we were "birdsh*t"

Maggot
Turd burgler
Mamas boy
Pretty boy
Pvt. F**ckhead

My TI (USAF) was an okay guy, but we and our sister flight lost so many guys we usually operated together as one flight. Their TI, Staff Seargent Laverne, liked to call the boys "young Hero!"
As in - "Young Hero, why are you littering my parade ground with your worthless hide!"

Amazingly the TI's were all gone during "Wet fire" training. They weren't stupid.

"weatherman" cause I screwed up the reporting statement day one & said reporting instead of reports as ordered. "weatherman"

junkie · 01-19-2004, 07:07 PM

I went through infantry basic and AIT at Ft. Benning. I cannot really recall what they called me as our minds tend to block out the bad things that happen to us.
I do recall when I did get done he called me "soldier" as in congrats soldier.

38, in reference to my 38' waistline and lister bag. Needless to say I went home as a 34" waist.

MAX7.62 · 01-19-2004, 09:17 PM

For the life of me I was sure he was saying "shifterbrains" but was corrected as to that point later in life. The instructors at BUDS 1 were far less cordial I must say.

teufelhunden · 02-04-2004, 08:23 PM

many fun and interesting names, but the one that sticks in my mind is "recruit"

7mmag6 · 02-11-2004, 12:43 AM

A long time from parris island but that sob always called us a-ss bite sorry for nothing pukes, or snivling wimps, or dip sh-t numb nut sorry bas-, thats before you got a butt of an m-14 in your face

colt45 · 02-11-2004, 11:12 AM

this is a family show i really can't repeat it.
magot and ladys where the only ones i can repeat her with out getting edited.

colt45 · 02-11-2004, 11:14 AM

7mmag6
mine was an m-16 but stoke still remember it well, boy i wish i could have seen him after boot, i'd have returned the favor.

colt45 · 02-11-2004, 11:27 AM

I still remember his name to D.I. SGT. Lacey
the guy couldn't call cadence to save his life, and screwed up every drill comand he ever gave ie: calling a comand on the right foot so everyone had to change step to execute the comand. couldn't remember class material from one day to the next.
but boy could that guy shoot, and teach it too, he took guys that couldn't hit the side of a barn if they where in it with the door shut and had them qualifing expert
we only had two guys in our platoon that didn't score expert.
when we graduated none of us could martch to save our a s s but we kicked everybodys but on the range and in hand to hand.
i hated that guys guts if i ever saw him now i'd more than likely baste him one, then go buy him a beer for teaching me how to save my own skin and to be a cold eficient killing machien in the field and for distilling a sence of honor and dedication to duty i dought we would have learned from anyone eles.
here's to you SGT. Lacey you S. o. B.

sniper762 · 08-18-2004, 04:15 PM

Basic training at Ft. Leanord Wood, Mo. 1985 D.I's called us all "rocks". He said thats all we would ever be to him until we graduated from Basic Training, nothing but a dumb old "rock"

Dallas · 08-18-2004, 05:30 PM

Use to call us "young studs" mostly at Ft Benning.

lefty o · 08-18-2004, 11:32 PM

everybody in the company was a fn' wingnut. cuz we were all screwed up. it took a real f-up to get their own special name, and i wasnt one of 'em.

whirlwind · 08-19-2004, 12:07 AM

we had three assigned to our platoon. one called us all "richard" one called us "f'd up wastes of skin" and one just cussed in spanish. after basic and ait i was stationed permanant party with one of my old drill instructors and he was actually pretty cool.

I went to Jackson and it was co-ed so the DS had to tone it down. The most they could do is get in you're face and yell at you. They couldn't call you anything real bad with the girls present. So we mostly got "Super Soldier", "Gomer Pile", and stuff like that.

whirlwind · 08-19-2004, 11:36 AM

cool! where were you at jackson? i was in d-1-1-3 on the top of tank hill in 84. when i was there females were in a seperate company.

[RATT]Viper · 08-19-2004, 06:07 PM

After Nine Years in the military, and many years of training in the 75th Rangers, the words they called I don't remember due to that so many were said. But the one thing that put respect, honor, ect.... in me, was when I finished Ranger school, and through RIP, the instructor looked right in my eyes, without any emotion, and said "Sua Sponte RANGER"
