Air Force pans Marines with new recruiting ad

[SGT Joe Snuffy]

Michaep .."An AF E-4 can do what an Army E-6 does"

Seriously, you should go and get yourself together before writing anything else. You're really crossing that disrespect line.

haha, I laughed when I read that SSgt.... when I was a SC at PI I had recruits that would have a stupid question or "bitch" comment about their DI's or with training, I would tell them to use their chain of command ...yea, go wank to your SDI... haha ... all the other SC's that I worked with would tell them the same thing.

yea, there's badass dudes in all the other branches of service.... but I've seen AF, Navy & Army basic training, went through PI as a recruit and as a SC, and none really compare to the asspain that is MCRD-PI or MCRD-SD... just my opinion. Good on SgtMaj Kent for calling BS...

the air force is a joke. first of all your training is for weak bodies. anyone can do it. And your promotion standards, everyone is put in a leadership rank but no one can lead. give me your strongest airman and ill give you my weakest marine and i promise your airman will fail everytime. oh yea thats why 4 of 10 failed your sorry excuse for a pft. airforse is for homos and you can keep um....and for marine times info sgt maj kent say the video and stopped it himself. why would marines give a flyin f**k about what the airforce has to say about the marine corps but if it makes you fill more like a man to talk s**t about marines then you should try doing it to a marines face and see were that gets you.... im MARINE-CORPS-SGT bring it....

First of all the TI does not speak for anyone else in the Air Force. I do not like the quote and he should have keep his mouth shut about the USMC or the Army and the Air Force shouldn't have used it.
Second, if you are a Marine NCO I would expect you to handle yourself better than to call a fellow service member a bunch of crap you are using here. I have served side by side with the Marines and seen the NCO Corp in a better light than this. You better get a thicker skin or I am sure you will not see any higher rank than you are. If one of my troops spat that crap out I would break it off in them. If I heard a Marine spat it off I wouldn't have say anything because I am sure that anouther Marine would handle it for me.

Grow the f**k up and act like a Marine. I know you were taught better than that. As you can see there is not a freaking smiley face after this one.

I went through AF BMT at the age of 26 and found it to be joke. I barely broke a sweat. The new PT test is a welcome change because it has scared the large amount of "fat bodies" that the Air Force has into possibly doing pt on a regular basis instead of just the month preceding their annual test. One of the large down sides that I see is that it allows people to maintain a 36" waist and receive max points. I believe the standards are comparable between branches, but the overall fitness of the Marines makes the Air Force look like a bunch of pudgy girls. The commander at Bagram AB, Afghanistan just implemented a PT test when you arrive in the AOR to let people understand that they had better come to the fight in shape or not come at all. At the in brief he said " If you are not in good enough shape to carry or drag the man next to you and engage the enemy at the same time, I don't want to fight next to you." I totally agree. Have pride in who you are and always strive to be better.

Give the TI a break! I understood the comparsion of time vs standards he was making between the services. I agree he could have presented it better but for everyone to pull the fire alarm, give me a break!

What's next, AF will have to pull all of its toliet paper because the latrine queen goes on record that it wipes better than the Marines and Army toliet paper?

I think the PC world has lost another nut! Doesn't these two senior NCOs have tougher issues to solve?

[MISCUSER]

God forbid someone in the AF has a little bit of pride in what we do and what he does personally. You have got to be kidding me, there are much more pressing issues in the 4 branches of the military service than a TI who makes a comment that some may take offense.......get a grip.

Ridiculous, The TI is a big dummy. He is not making any comparison between time and standards and the services. He specifically says that Airmen coming out of Basic Training are in better shape than the Marines and that the AF has the toughest standards to follow, hahahahhahahahhaha.
Comparing toilet paper and the stupid comment your dummy made is not on the same page.
Imagine if the Marine Corps made a recruiting video that said "if you wanna be a man, join the Marine Corps, if you wanna be a pansy, join the chair Force"

taking pride in what he does is not the same thing as saying that AF recruits are in better shape than Marines. Everyone knows its crap, that guy just likes to think he is king s**t and that he is some sort of badass
