Most Evil Hazing Traditions That Were Straight Up Murder

Historically the people who whine the most about "military hazing" are either those who have never served or panty waists who couldn't handle simple, good natured teasing...

If you can;t handle hazing, you shouldn't be allowed into the fold. It has its consequences but it also has a very real aspect that you are being welcomed, that you are going through the "easy" way while your superiors or command have gone through the hard way. It is what it is and if you think military life is not for you, it will weed you out, that is the point where usual practices do not exist anymore to get rid of these people that can be a threat to their own on the battlefield.

MARINE CORPS IS INFAMOUS FOR HAZING! BUILDS BETTER WARRIORS

The new policy changes were more about inclusion and less about harassment as combat effectiveness is sacrificed on the holy alter of political correctness...and votes of course...

The Russian Army hazing rituals are even worse.

Join a bunch of brutes and be astonished when brutishness happens... My father used to beat me unconscious as a child. These people are all grown men. They'll survive.

Tbh I'm curious to know what Space Force hazing would look like

Hazing is very important. But like with everything immature people over do it

lol I got a new boot with the good ol PRC-E7

It’s called “Remedial Training” now

Just another reason why people will take any other job but join the military.

Seriously, their already training and going through mental strain to go into far worse situations; having people their supose to trust, bullying them isnt gonna help at all.

LoL some of the examples. LMAO got blood striped and pinned just part of it.

😂 You’d have to be so gay to sign up for this

It's often from Marine Corps, huh?

A wise man once said " You don't need to be hazed to do anything. The fact that you are here is today showed that you already did everything you needed to do."

Lmao

Been through all that bullshit. Good times lol

In Thai army they they strip you naked and make you "hold" your friend's "little friend" and walk you in circles around the barrack for a while. And yes, your buddy also "hold" your "little friend"
I'm not sure if they still practice these ritual.

If i understand how the US military work, training is hazing and it is build taking into account that your squad will lift you up, brotherhood and all.
Which makes sense in a crisis situation in the middle of battle you want to be with people you can trust and not with bullies, if there is no camaraderie you and your squad are going to come back in a casket. It's not a tradition, it's basically high school bullying takien to 11.

The Coast Guard?

Insane that our military has gone from an honorable brotherhood, to a rabble of bullies. Respect to all our veterans and heros for persevering through these horrors

When you get out of military prison you still have to stand trail in a civilian court

Hazing id necessary to create strong, thick skinned individuals, that being said, taking it too far is not right, and I've seen first hand taking it too far. Then the higher ups coveeing it up, because they dont want to lose their jobs.

If they can’t handle hazing they won’t handle war

Let's make joining the Military to defend our nation as unappealing as can be...

Lol. Hazing created the first and second best generation of warfighters this nation has ever seen. I can't imagine my 14 years in combat arms without blood wings and koalafying. Hard times make hard men. There are lines and a lot of what was shown was exactly that. But there's jovial things brothers bonded in bloodshed can and should do with each other. Breaks up the monotony and does establish morale and esprit de corps.

So we expect you to go through the worst possible situations known to mankind, but it's an atrocity to hurt your feelings. Nut up. This is a soft nation you all want.

Only morons with no skills join the “military”

As a Marine, there is a big difference between the incentive training we received from the drill instructors and the other crazy things we endeavored. The military as a whole, particularly the USMC, is a maelstrom of chaos. Being that it's so small, it has that weird fraternity vibe. It prides itself on the rituals it puts recruits and newer members through. And if you don't fit in with the mania right away, you'll feel the exclusion. And you know you'll never fit in. Thus, the chance of promotion and moving up is diminished. I hate to admit it, but that's why a lot of fellas only do their four years and leave. Sometimes left with a lot of anger issues and depression.

We had a PTI (PT Instructor) that thought it would be fun to “haze” a “larger” solider. He didn’t find it fun when I offered that he try to haze me, he quickly found out I was a judo black belt😂

Well, why would you let terrorists into your military in the first place?

In recon the first week they woke us up at midnight, stuck spoons full of peanut butter in our mouths and made us say the recon creed while doing flutter kicks and pouring liquor in our mouths. We then went behind the barracks and they made us fill our mouth with liquor, run to the top of a mountain and spit it out at the top. If you had nothing to spit out you do it again

US and uk like this but Europe NATO soldiers are not this no manais ok

That's why the military is down

The amount of people I’ve worked with in the military who legitimately want hazing to make a comeback is concerning.

There's a sergeant pain reference in this

I can’t believe how little empathy most military men have

3/4 of y’all are speaking on a topic you don’t know anything about.

OHHRAH

Ever heard of the elbow push-up? A sergeant from the 80’s told the class that while walking on the asphalt in the summer heat they got down on there elbows and started doing pushups

It is still very much a thing I got hazed at fort sill
Nickname for that place is suicide sill

We had one recruit forced to low crawl while naked because he was caught self pleasing. His skin on his Johnson was peeled back and he was bleeding on the floor.

Now that's just dumb.

I've gotten blood wings (twice, the second time when I passed the first round of warrant training), sand bathed (for a "welcome" to a ranger squad as an outsider), eaten a scorpion (same guy's celebrating my first face-to-face combat kill), AND had to spend all night finding where the guys' hid my kit on the base (after finding my field bag full of shaving cream).

Best time of my life. After sneaking my gas mask out from under Rook-the-Crook's (NOT his real name) bunk, I was treated like just one of the guys...instead of as unexploded ordinance they had to babysit.

It's called a mental callous, from being raised by a FATHER, and not by the commie school system. It is 100% because of dad and gramps that I am such a successful person today! 😊

For real? Blood wings in this episode? All prayers to the Mother clucking chicken in the sky, these children know not what they do.

Why is most military hazing just straight-up fruity?

better to get hazed than to lose your career for soft sharp people
