I'm heading into Great Lakes on Thursday. And I'm just a bit nervous, so I've been asking lots of questions... I know how often getting "beat" is determined by how much your division pisses off your RDC. But I've also been told that every day is scripted and the RDCs already have their day planned out, even whether or not they're going to beat you that day... So I'm just wondering, on average, how often do RDCs beat their recruits with their own versions of PT per week? Thanks.
 
They are not allowed to mistreat you physically or verbally. Thus, they use psychological intimidation, and physical punishment (running, push-ups, sit- ups etc) in order to get you to do what you must do. Remember that if you disobey an order you can be subject to criminal punishment (court martial)... so just do your best, and always do what you are told. They are there to teach you, not to destroy you.
 
LOL are you serious man,? you dont get beat even in the special forces or marines or army you never get beat. In the old days there was a little less rules but even then you didnt get beat they might have called you a momma's boy or got in your "comfort zone" and helped you up a little over energeticly but never beat you. In hand to hand combat you dont get beat its not different then play wrestling with your friends in high school. You may have to clean the bathroom with a toothbrush or something & a drill instruct may still call you a momma's boy but they can't technically put their hands on you let alone beat you. Are there accidents of course could they help you up a hill a little roughly sure it happens could the make you do push ups & put a foot on your back to make it a little harder sure of course but they cant beat you. Your co recruits cant beat you either even if you fail at everything & the drill instructor holds them responsible for holding you up and make everyone do 1 million push ups they can't beat you. You have nothing to worry about stop watching full metal jacket it was a propagada film for a time & against a military the maker didnt agree with & everyhting was exacterated & again times have changed. THEY WILL NOT BEAT You.. You will not get a blanket party you will not have a sock shoved in your mouth.
