Description I've wanted to post this for awhile.

It's a scene from the movie Jarhead, when the main character realizes joining the Marine Corps just might have been a mistake.

Nowdays, by law the DI's aren't aloud to physically touch you. See like in that picture the DI would get in big trouble for that. Anyway its a great movie.

Then again, this WAS the late 1980s, so things were probably different back then.

In the book his head actually went through the chalk board into the concrete wall behind it.

Excellent work capturing this scene

luckily things have changed and bootcamp isn't as...hazardous as it once was

they weren't even allowed to do those things when the book was written, the drill instructor that did that was reassigned to a different platoon and punished later

it's a great film. more or less deals with the soldier's mentality out of combat rather than in battle.

the waiting, the idleness, the mind-fucking nature of the unknown...
